I can understand people saying WoW, SWTOR etc but realistically you havent played a truly bad mmo. Take a look at 80% of the game list on this site. There is an ad for shaiya to my left now..... Horrible game. 

Try one of these random MMOs you'll appreciate the WoWs and SWTORs out there a lot more.

^^ speaks truth. ive hopped around on the game list and tried 20 or more. and my lord there are some abominations out there. and yep shaiya is trash lol. 

windows 8: it's natural because it's a new OS. its going to have problems.

go back through every mmo released (in the past 6 months) and read the beta/launch threads and it will read like this one (with more rage).

calm yourselves, eat some cake. it will sort itself out :)

wow this thread has made me want to play the game. the vids didnt look to appealing. but all the sneakyness and

clan attacks. just made me realise how awesome this game could be. i play alot of woe in ragnarok so i shouldnt

complain about graphics :P. but if ppl are enjoying beating each others heads or sneaking around till they are over geared and 

kill everyone. im in!

il get it off steam

The game is horrible in multiplayer.   It's like an afterthought.  Gameplay is too slow, deaths too frequent, and players get separated constantly.  Whenever there's elites, everyone just goes crazy and runs around without direction.   Game needs agro management, and to stop being just a dps'fest.

o.O agro..why? ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

The wii is an interesting console... but as previous posters say.. with no real games.. and all being targeted to the ultra casual... I've no interest in nintendo.

launched with Black Ops, Ninja Gaiden, and ZombiU.

 

all those ultra casual games.

lol... notice i said the wii.. not wii:U. if those games are done well and aren't kiddy.. then sure... but like others say in this forum.... when you build up a history and you are very consistent.. u have to do a lot to change ppls minds about you.. and nintendo has had the same companies being the primary  producers of games for their consoles for the longest

 

edit: at one point i considered buying the wii.. but when i noticed that only one game had come out that i was interested in.. that decided it.. the wii wasn't an option..

 

edit: not to mention the wii was marketed as being a console for casual gamers and those interested in its exercise/fitness games and control use.

no more hero's 1&2, xenoblade chronicles, the last story, pandora's tower. just to name a few not so casual games

You can even blow on it to make your character jump or whatever. I am certain that the new PS and Xbox will replicate a model after that. It's industry standard now I believe. And the Xbox and PS will probably cost 700 euros, which Wii U does not.

You do know the blowing thing has been in Ninty stuff since the DS?  

Also based on stats and current market behavior the PS4/Xbox will be appx the same price as the U.  

The only thing the U currently has is appx a 1 year head start.  Will this be enough?  I dont know, but Ninty need to get the backing of the 3rd parties and with them decent versions of the games, without them like the Wii as far as a "proper" gaming machine goes it will flop again.  Will i buy one?  I really dont know, after the gimmickery of the Wii faded for me i lost interest, certainly wont be soon as the 1st party titles seem a long way off, and i will really need a decent Zelda at least to make me part the cash for atm seems to be a slightly upgraded xbox 360 released 7 years too late.  If the games come and the screen doesnt feel like a gimmick i may pick one up next year sometime.

yeh wii was such a flop it outsold ps3 and 360 (prove me wrong). had great action games, some of the best RPG's this decade and all ya mario's and zelda's (my opinion)

Because Funcom are the best and most innovative game developers on the planet, also they have the best MMO engine ever developed.

AoC is great, TSW is even better, Anarchy Online was the best SciFi MMO ever and gets a graphic update soon.

I´d buy them if I were Activision.

Or even better DISNEY should buy them, and give them a liscense to make a Star Wars MMO

hahahahahahah what?      you are either trolling or forgot to put IMO/share opinion after each statement lol

1. Simulated world - doesnt mater how complex - but with systems realistic to given simulation.

2. Content that comes from interaction with worlds factions.

3. Posiblity to change the world trough interaction.

4. Inter player and inter community dependency.

5. Suply and demand based economy and posession.

6. Player character development that lets you be unique , specialised and needed in other player and world interaction.

 

All rest is up to imagination of developer.

wakfu is pretty much a player driven world. u make eerything from money to the mobs you fight, and have a government system.

its turn based so its not for everyone. and very polished anime.

so i take it il have to buy the game again seeing as the whole world is now destroyed and rebuilt?

i stopped playing a while ago

the guys who make oddworld games were approached by EA to pretty much buy them out. 

heres their responce http://www.cinemablend.com/games/EA-Denies-Oddworld-Buyout-Recommends-Lithium-Oddworld-Dev-47658.html

imo sales are not that important with thise expac because alot of ppl i know and read through various forums are waiting atleast a month maybe 2 before purchasing to see how it goes. instead of getting depressed after buying cata from day 1 lol.

probably just a minority but just my opinion

the death of mmo's :(

but wakfu is so fuuuuuuuun

gauss-pault ftw.

closed beta was awesome. tried some different variants and builds. had alot of fun. can't wait for the release :D

You can't be right. All this forum's doom sayers are saying this game is already decaying and near death.

lol, I was thinking the same thing.

After reading the original post all I could think was "aren't people saying that the game is losing people?"

 

yeh it's so horrible and boring. b2p is a big mistake lol. everyone is quitting and going back to pay for wow :P

Come on, it is a fun game for the first week or so then it just becomes boring.  Yeah it is probably better than DIII, but then what isn't?  So giving the game a 10 for longevity is laughable, more like a 5 at best.  There is really nothing to keep you playing the game continuously.  Diablo II was a better game than this.  Why is it no one can even come close to what that game achieved, it is not rocket science?

When you give games that are just good a high score like this, you make your rating scale a joke.  Next time be at least a little bit critical. 

ummmmm. the game is able to be completely modded. that includes making levels for others to play. not a 10, maybe an 8 or 9 cause not everyone will care about modders
