I am huge Traveller fan but I find it hard to believe that any company can create an MMO with the same depth and scope as Traveller.

I have to diagree. I dont think the MMO population would have "grown" if WOW was never developed.
Newly released MMOs sucks these days. Developers have grown steadily retarded and incomptetent. WoW gained an ammas following becuase of several factors.
1. already had a following with previous games
2. easy on the pc
3. easy overall to play
I honestly think those who made WOW their first mmo ever would have ever signed on. MMO is a dying breed unless the developers gets smarter,
Also, we have to look at the current batch of MMOs available and the effect WoW has had on their design. Since WoW cannot be taken out of the eqaution we don't know what games would be on the market now or the state of those that existed before WoW.
But in the end, everything said and done, we are speculating about a situation that does not exist. WoW was made, a lot of people play it, who really knows what the MMO market would be with out it.
I only wish I could play the game. DnL in its current state is unplayable.
Originally posted by HousamI agree with Housam. The population of the MMO community would be greater now even if there was no WoW but it would not be on the same level.
i agree that it would have grown...but not as fast if WoW hadent been released..WoW is an mmo catalyst
WoW has a whole culture behind it, this culture has drawn in gamers for sure but also people who would never have played an MMO if there was no WoW.
We used to call EQ "EverCrack" but WoW makes "EverCrack" look more like baby asprin.
I can't vote in your poll becasue you have several I would like to see.
Do you currently play any NCsoft published games?
