I want an mmorpg where pvp matters, my enemies are not my race or class, and community matters. |

Originally posted by QuicklyScott Signed, however, WoW 2 is not allowed by the Federal Trade Commission. You see, it has been realized that if WoW 2 is released, that every other crappy mmorpg developer will be without a job, and that's unfair trade practices under the same laws that regulate conglomerates.
In other words, you can't have just one giant fish in the sea because it eats everything else, especially the smaller fish. Hence, no WoW 2. |

Originally posted by Sheepduck I just hope that Blizzard learns from all the mistakes of others and themselves as well. People keep forgetting the reason so many go play other games is because they are truly tired of the WoW formula.. WoW was a perferct storm for a new genre of players.. It won't be repeated again.. Atleast I hope not.. I and thousands of others, if not millions are DONE with WoW, why would we want WoW 2? |

Originally posted by MMOExposed I have always advocated that if WoW would make a special server with 3 changes.. I'd come back to play.. These changes are in general terms.. 1) make mobs harder so that they can't be solo'd 99% of the time.. and change the agro so that you don't LOSE agro if you only run away 20 yards.. 2) allow mentoring, so that you never outlevel any zone.. or friends.. 3) change raiding to much harder boss, but remove the cap limits.. |

If you see no good or you see no bad in a game, chances are you are bias. |

What we need is for people to realize that if it wasn't for the fact people have attachment for wow from way back when, it wouldn't be so popular. Look at games like Runescape or Everquest 1 as an example. Despite their age they are still rather popular. The biggest factor that has left then going strong is people had spent good deal of time at them. WoW fits just perfectly in a niche where MMOs were starting to get big. Lets be honest, if WoW was released in its original state it was in today, it would be considered pretty much a massive flop like SWTOR. The thing that has allowed it to stay at top and develop was having such an incredibly tiny amount of competition compared to today with the added benefit it was blizzard doing the game.
There are plenty of games being released that are great, its just peoples expections have grown so crazy that its virtually impossible to ever please them. You can give someone 20 Carrot gold and they would likely thow it back at you and yell they wanted 24 Carrot without even giving it a chance. MMos like WoW are considered valuable to us because its like a heirloom, something so valuable to the player because its been in your life for so long. |

Originally posted by FredomSekerZ No offense, I love Tera personally and think it deserves much more success, but I've showed the game to many friends both gamer and non-gamer and 90% of them thought the Elin were basically sexualised little girls, and found it not offensive exactly, more "in poor taste". Most of them laughed. The ones with daughters didn't. I get anime, I've watched a fair few over the last 2 decades and know a fair bit about Asian cultures. I know the difference between kawaii and lolicon. I know that in Japan specifically, attraction to pre-teen girls is a common proclivity, and despite pedophilia being illegal, enforcement is poor and underage sexualisation is rampant. Say what you will about the Elin being a "non-sexual fairy nature species" or whatever - it's basically hentai children. I think they should have just removed that race from the character selector, then Tera would have had a better shot in the west. There are other issues with the game, but even if all of those were all solved a pedophile-friendly character choice makes mass market success impossible for Tera, no matter what the minority of anime aficionados think.

Originally posted by ShakyMo wait EQ2 and LOTRO are WoW sequels?
1) EQ2 came out before WoW 2) LoTRO is modeled after AC3 which was changed into Middle Earth Online, which we know as LoTRO, all ages before WoW became popular.

To me... the WoW of today is already like WoW 2 compared to what it was at release. I never want a WoW sequel. Any changes that they'd do in WoW 2 can be done through expansions.

Regardless, maybe Titan will suffice. If Blizzard were to make a new mmo, Id actually prefer they shy away from the swords and fantasy stuff a bit. The industry is flooded with that stuff. Sometimes, just the premise or setting of a game can pull people in. Players are desperately wanting more space type mmorpgs, and there's not too many of those really. There's also a whole host of other world types and settings the industry has barely touched on or not at all.
Like an old west mmorpg, there's some apocalyptic ones, there's one vampire themed one being made, various historical mmos. There's just a whole host of other universe types that are just waiting to be made into a game. I have a feeling Titan may not be a swords and elves type game. Thats probably wise. |

Originally posted by Alders WHAT a smart remark... +10000 for you..
Person don't seem, to get that Blizz is in no rush release a product that might kill its own product... They say WoW might go FTP in the future, that future i think is when there other MMO launches.. Have the TOP FTP game and maybe capture those same WoW player base with another P2P MMO, and let them coexist... |

Oh I agree graphics do matter.. but in this generation, it's all about flexibility to be able to play on affordable machines. What Im saying is that Blizzard make it playble for everyone.. unlike some other companies don't. The higher demands they put on rigs, the less playablity they'll get. Just an observation. |

WoW 2 would probably do well. I'd never play it, though. My trouble with WoW was not the gameplay or graphics; it was the lore and environment. I personally dislike steampunk, and to make it worse WoW had a ton of immersion-breaking elements purposefully mixed in. So, if a f-ing motorcycle in a fantasy-medieval game wasn't dumb enough, they had "PWNED" license plates or "BLIZZ" flags on them. |

Why would we need a WoW 2? community was terrible in Wow and the gearbased treadmill is a big nono in my opinion. Hate it when they do something like that... No need for another ugly behemoth to mess up another decade of mmorpgs that all aim for being the "best clone". A monopoly in a market always destroys the market :( "Isn't a raid plundering villages in WoW or something like that?" - Robert Desable |

Give us worlds, not stories. Just like the railroad ruined the Old West, it's ruining MMORPG's. |

Originally posted by Epicent Agreed, but a WOW 2 based upon earlier WOW design principles (i.e., quest hubs you can hit in any order (within your level to accomplish), rather than linear phased, bread-crumb trail quest hubbing). Present WOW is too streamlined, too simplified, too on-rails. They need to ditch the forced storyline and bring badk Azeroth, a world to explore. |

What we need is for fewer mmorpgs. Let the crap ones die and have only 5 survive. |

I wholeheartedly agree with the statement. Quite frankly, even though I had dabbled in some MMOs before, such as City of Heroes, WoW was my first proper MMO because it felt like a *world* that I wanted to explore and loved being in. To be honest, it was just an exceptional game and if Blizzard could make WoW in 2004, Imagine what they could do today...... |
