I was wondering how many feel the way I do and are sick and tired of seeing more fantasy based mmo's in development. Why can't devs develope other game styles like maybe ,Old West,A space mmo thats not Star Wars or Star Trek? They made a console game Mass Effect and its a damn good game with decent lore to boot. I think Game developers need to start being a little more creative the Orcs n Elves are being driven into the ground. |

I agree, I'm tired of fantasy MMOs which is why I'm going to hide in EVE until SGW releases next year, I may try Earthrise also. |

this has been a pretty common trend amongst players lately. ::sigh:: if only there was a good sci-fi mmo i could play... guess i'm stuck with old fashioned rpgs |

Nah, can not say I agree. I have no problem with the elf and orc world. I AM tired of the poorly done cookie cutters. I woul PREFER a true medieval themed game, could do without the elves and orcs. I do enjoy high fantasy, and post apocalyptic fallout. As I see it, there are enough elves and orcs being killed on a daily basis that it does not hurt to see a few more birthed... as long as they are done right, and not imbred rejects. :)

Pretty simple really, because Orcs n Elves (or fantasy games in general) have proven to be big sellers and few games outside of this formula can be considered successes. Till some company hits it big with something outside of the box, expect lots more Orcs N Elves games.

I agree. They need to get new ideas for fantasy. Its hard to get developers to move away from popular themes. |

I don't mind orcs and elves. If they are done right, as the poster above says, I'm in! There are WAY TOO MANY cookie cutters out there which, quite frankly, ruins part of the experience. I actually do not like sci-fi at all, modern times (in terms of games) and things related. I LOVE the 'sword and shield' stuff. Blessings, |

| If Christianity is the following of Christ, His words and His leadership, then Christianity is the right way forward. Jesus is the One who claimed to be THE Truth and who possesses all wisdom and knowledge (Col 2:4-5) Though in Christianity many may say or do goofy things, Christ is the Faithful Witness so that is my cornerstone. When I made that decision, the world and all of its religions and philosophies suddenly became clear as it is all of Him, through Him, to Him and for Him. |

The lack of Elves, Orcs, and other extremely typical fantasy monsters is one of the reasons I like Asheron's Call. There are a lot of unique and interesting creatures. Also the only playable characters are humans, which is a different approach I happen to like, but it seems most do not. |
