Or both should not because they are both not mmorpgs and it does not make sense why Diablo 3 would be on here

Diablo is not an mmorpg, by any stretch of the definition. End of story. |

Originally posted by skamper I agree , seems they are catering to Blizzard , because Blizzard games sell , however we should have borderlands 2 on here because it has leveling , RPG elements and a open world. |

Diablo 3 is lot more popular than Borderland. So they list games accordance to general interest of gamers.

Originally posted by halflife25 That is false, because:
a) MMORPG.com lists games which are very unpopular, but fall into the genre b) Call of Duty has leveling and is extremely popular, yet isn't on here.
So again, false.
Also, my opinion is that Diablo 3 does not belong on this site (although, in contrast to most people, I actually like the game). |

No one has ever claimed that Diablo 3 is a MMORPG. Not even MMORPG.com. It is here because a lot of players are interested in games like Diablo 3 as well. They are merely serving the interests of the community. They have given MMO-oriented players a place to discuss about Diablo 3. It does not make it an MMO. So please, cut with the "it doesn't belong here" talk. Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference. -Author unknown, attributed to Mark Twain |

Originally posted by nsignific Is call of duty an RPG? this website lists games like Diablo because it is closer to MMORPG genre. And yes Diablo is immensily popular and even people who work at this website are huge fans of it. |

Originally posted by halflife25 Popularity should not be the deciding factor in which games should be promoted. This site should only list MMO's. The only reason Diablo 3 is listed here is to get more hits, and as such, more ad revenue. They get away with it, because a lot of people see Diablo as the origin of online RPGs, and with that, MMORPGs. |

If it is not a MMO, then what is it doing on the MMO list? Saying it is not a MMO and then telling people to stop talking about it is a bit rich. If this was done for the community then D3 should be put in its own catergory. We have a General Gaming forum, we could have a a similar section on the game list. I think there was some call for a DA forum once, llikewise that would be fine in its own catergory. |

Originally posted by LethalJaxx They have been listing a lot of RPG's for a long time now. I have been lurking on this website for years now and i have seen them listing games which do not fall strictly into MMO genre but are still closer to it in terms of role playing. And yes popularity factor does count. This site is mainly for those who love MMOS so it is just natural to have interested in other role playing games. |

I think that's it. If Borderlands 2 was of general or popular interest to MMORPG players, then it would be listed on this site. D3 was (still is?) of interest to MMORPG players, so it was listed on this site. I declare halflife25 the winner. Here is your internet bacons, sir. /internetbacons Join the League For Gamers. |

I think Borderlands 2 will satisfy a much needed itch I have for SP FPSes and loot pinatas.
By all means, lets talk about it. I want a mmorpg where people have gone through misery, have gone through school stuff and actually have had sex even. -sagil |

Lobbying from people waiting for the game got it in here. If enough people want BL2 in they will add a forum for it as well. While it isnt technically a MMORPG (in fact I wouldnt class it as either MMO or RPG myself) there is not really noo reason to discuss close games here as well as long as many enough want to. If it would be my forum neither game would be in but it isnt, and frankly do not a few online action games destroy the forum or anything. But exception should be made one at a time, or every game with an online mode will be here. |

If Dust 514 is on here why isn't MAG as well since its the same engine and mod with larger scale PvP aka more MM on the MMO
