Obviously thats not going to happen because there is a small niche for them. I mean they have been trying and look, no one is ever satisfied.

It's really the EQ mold copied but dumbdown, but yeah since most mmos are solo and dumb down I can see why you say its the WoW flavor.

The days of 2d graphics?

The days of playing the game as if it were a full time job?

The days of where you had to be an even bigger super nerd than you need to be now to play mmos?

The days of /commands for everything?

The days of clunky UI interfaces that have no relevance in this day and age?

The days of no instancing and open PvP.
I mean, us guys can find it in oldschool games (like Mir) and in Darkfall. And I'm quite happy with what I have right now personally.

When I'm looking an an MMO that I'm thinking of playing, if it has instancing in it, that'll be me put off.

Playing: Playing Legend of Mir 3 Private server & FPS through Steam and Xbox LIVE.
Also playing Terraria, and have a spare key. Drop me a PM if interested!
Waiting for Darkfall's relaunch.

Your forum name does you proud then.  By your logic then for example the invention of the wheel ruined everything for cavemen because its quite obviuos the wheel ruined the way cavemen h unted and made things right?  Oh yeah thats right no it didnt it aided them and helped them with hunting.  To say wow ruined anything is a bloody joke beyond beleif, let me now to tell you what has ruined things;

1)You so called vets whining like bitches constantly

2)vets thinking hardcore= crappy game design.

3)Vets thinking sandbox means hardcore, NO it D0ES NOT.

4)You whining bitches that jump from game every 2 months saying you dont like it.

5)  Thinking that somehow pathetic game dsign, and no features is hardcore, if you want hardcore then why dont u have just a plane grass gorund and duke it out with your fists because its quite obviuos, you hardcore players dont need wepaons armour, quests, levels, skills, or anything.

7)Thinking that somehow because a game that is polished and has features to aid the player is somehow ruining the mmo genre.  If that was the case the lest all go back to the 1970s with balck and white screens and ping pong.

8)  So called vets thinking they have the right to tell the majority of the playerbase what is a good mmo and what is crap.

 

NWESflash,  Why dont all you so called vets get a grip on reality, because the MMO genre is moving on, and quite frankly either like it or PISS OFF, because the genre would be actually better without you so called "Vet experts".  Nobody gives a crap what you people think anymore, hell you retards are still going on about SWG after all these years, probably when the new star wars game comes out you wont like it, hell even when MO comes out so called vets will hate it, or start saying the game is only for the so called hardcore thast why its no popular lol.

I assume your first mmo was WoW. Yes this is the part when everything you say is ridiculous and get bashed for it lol. We all know your a Blizzard Intern who wants the job. So you come on to these forums to spread your mmo vet hate propaganda so you can fit in with that community. In reality I believe you really wish you could experience what an mmo really was back in the day and your just left out. It's ok little buddy, we are glad you didnt play with us so you can get over it. Seriously, you remind me of about 4 people I use to argue with about this stuff on WoW. It's pointless really.

Dumb butt.


 

You can make level 5 soloing in EQ, if your gaming skills are somewhat below that of a five year old

My daughter was progressing a little farther than that by five. 8P

Personally, I've soloed to level cap on quite a few classes, never had any real issues. You just have to know how to play each class. NOT being ADD really helps, poor Timmy never really made it past mid-level in Everquest.

 

Your name's not Timmy.......is it?

MMOs were fun when the concept was new.....it isn't anymore.

 

It's the newness everyone misses. It's  not really the games.

mmos are the past lol theres a stupid statement if ever i heard one . if anything mmos are more popular now than they have ever been because of warcraft . the games we see now are a little limited in what they can offer . like anything else they will continue to improve and become more and more complex in what they offer .the mmos of tomorrow with make the mmos of today look like pac man .

The problem with this topic is that all the games people talk about wishing the new mmo's were like are still out. EQ and UO are still out. If games like that are what you like and wish the new ones were like then just go and play those said games. Just seems so simple to me.

But they need newer shinier graphics, then in the same breath say graphics don't matter=)  They say they want a new game, then in the same breath want all the same ol tired and forgotten systems in MMOs, circa 1998.  So, they really don't want a new game.  They want the FEELING of their old games and haven't come to grips with reality...that FEELING is NEVER going to return.   Be mature about it and just face the truth already.

The real topper is even if they got that same feeling, then they'd complain no one innovates; that it's just the same 'ole same 'ole.
