you think 2014 is the year for Wildstar?

not that i know any better,

but when they announced it last summer they showed ingame footage and said they had already been working on it for over 3.5 years  (in aug 2011)

if Wildstar released in 2014 that would be almost 7 years of development

Planetside 2 offcourse :)

Arenanet + SoE opend a new door to gaming.

SWTOR flopped.

TSW lagged.

Countless others blah.

GW2 will hopefully be great and your time reading this post has been waisted.  BUUUT, what if it isn't.  What is the next big game to hopefully revolutionize the genre or at least breath life back into it?  Some F2P title?  Something in 2012?  Are we going to be waiting up until Titans to hopefully get our fix? 

Whats the next big thing AFTER GW2?

 

Hopefully Michael Moorcock's Elric will be the first MMO developed by Rockstar other then that I dont see one.

I think the next hype train is going to be either PS2 / Wildstar / TESO / Archeage.

From what I've head from the latest videos from GC 2012 about Wildstar, it is probably going to be released in Q4 2013. (Closed beta starting early next year)

WoD, PS2 and Archage

TESO has already recieved to much negative press. 

Titan maybe but Blizzard has been releasing a lot of duds lately and it may catch up with them by the time Titan rolls around. 

So... not sure, Blade and soul maybe but thats a bit of a long shot as well. Was sad to see TSW flop.

Definitely those two.

I doubt after SWTOR and GW2 anygame in the near future will come even close to that bad hype we had about them.

Archage, WoD and The Repopulation are too far away, but are my strongest candidates. TESO is more a candidate for even more anti-hype. They simply reject to deliver, what the TES-Crowd wants. Planetside is FPS. Neverwinter and Wildstar might cause a small hype, but not noteworthy compared to the Big 2. 

So I expect a rather calm year and the next storm starting late 2013.

My personal hype will be end of 2013, too. With Total War: Rome II, i will not care about MMOs anymore for at least a year!

TESO.

After less than a Month, GW2 will be one of the biggest disappointments in the MMO history for really a lot of people, not for the people like me who bought the game knowing that is just an E-sport MMO. 

TSW didnt fail.

SWTOR is still the most successful MMO but WoW in the west, and by the end of the year we will find more people playing TOR than GW2. 

Are you delusional? SWTOR is free2play already, bioware is laying off staff members, EA has torn the game to shreds, and now they're selling statted equipment in the microtransaction store.

I played SWTOR to level 50, it was fun - but boring once you're there, there's really nothing to do that catches my attention. I suggest you take your fandom visor off and look at the game again, because it's not going anywhere, any time soon.

Ryan Dancey (Pathfinder Online) had recently stated in one of his presentations that this was a unique period where there is nothing really big on the horizon after GW2. He pointed out that projects this big, with hundreds of employees, are rather hard to hide, so if something is out there and on the near horizon, we'd know about it.

I'm hoping that part of the reason is that investors are just ready to throw up if they see another pitch comprising of the same stale buzzwords wrapped around concept art of fantasy environments and characters in medieval armor swinging swords at stuff.

Investors have got to be bored to tears by now.

It felt like it was more recent, maybe 2014 is bit of a stretch, but the game is still in alpha stage so it still feels so far away.

Are you delusional? SWTOR is going Free2play in a few weeks. lol

I think that's the point he was trying to make.
