Pure Rpgs are a minority in single/multi player games and soon they will be a minority in mmos.
To me mmo means you have something to fight for....which comes from 10six my first mmo.
I OWNED the bases, i built the bases, i defended the bases, and i took peoples bases.
Even rpgs can do this look at perfect world aoc lineage 2 ..at the end game there is something to fight for.
Mmo's will evolve passed char customization and pretty armor, I just hope it leans toward conquering the world and the ecomony. I do like fps view more but in the end its just a view, they can make it 3rd person and still be fast paced and fun.
I do play regular fps games when im bored, but they are a time killer nothing i can play for more than a year.
Which 3 did ya play ill tell ya why i liked them...and why you shouldnt..lol
Oh dear Oh dear.
Seems like MarL might have one or two issues.
Calm down guy. I like my games ... why do you get so burned if I like what you don't.
and I don't need you to tell me what not to play - I can get that kind of advice from my Four year old Niece ![]()

Your right this really isnt the place for me, why have i been here so long! O thats right nobody goes to massivefps.com .... Really though I play MMO's, heres some games i do like 10six planetside wwiionline endless ages neocron eve HUXLEY . I even played wow , but i dont like it now (it is a good game though). I try every game, I suffer through the levels to get to the fun stuff. I know levels are a trick to get people to play longer and i hope more people figure that out. Regular multiplayer games just dont do it for me anymore although savage is the step in the right direction.(its different every game since you build the base yet still fast paced)
Im hoping soon you wont belong here
When you joined is no indication of if your in the right place mate, times change ![]()
The list you give there ( I have time in three of them ) only seems to make me feel even more sure that you are a bit confused as to what you want.
Spend a year in hardline FPS adrenaline blasts and then see how the average MMO feels.
I promise you it will feel like a slow crap .... and yet .... MMORPG's can be fun. I think it might be something to do with actually communicating with people rather than making a snap choice to "Fire or Hold".
Whatever - play to enjoy man, and don't wish me me gone
who would you talk to ?![]()

I play mmos to fight people not the computer.....if i played aoc it would be for pvp and guild seiges not for 1-80.
Leveling is a treadmill to me and its never fun, I dont like any quests ever ( although sometimes its faster to lvl if ya do them). So by rushing through im trying to get to the fun stuff...
I dont really care about stories either, if i want a story ill read a book or watch a movie, I want combat action in a game.
Well nobody in real wants to get to 75 because in real life your not tougher at 75 your just old and you dont get to seige stuff and kill people.
Are you sure your in the right place?
If you like to go up against real people in 1 on 1 without any need for background or storyline, then games like
Counterstrike - www.steamgames.com/v/index.php
Team Fortress 2 - www.teamfortress2fort.com/
and Battlefield 2 - www.bf2.org/
might be more for you ?
All good games ... all can use a few more targets ![]()
p.s. I apologise for the crap linkage but things have got a lot more complex since I was last here ![]()

Why would you buy a game for 50 $ and then grind the whole day, killing the most xp-efficient mob 24/7 ?
Do the quests, read the dialogs, enjoy the background story, and it will take you months to get there, hundreds of hours of entertainment instead of few days mindless grinding.
Never understood why someone would pay 50$ for the game, then pay even more so that someone else plays it to lvl 80. And then what, "enjoy" the game at 80 ?
We think the same way but we seem to be in a minority ![]()
Personally the first thing I do with a new game is turn off the exp bar, mini-map and anything else that purports to "aid gameplay"
If I am totally stuck on something then I will take a look at the map or delete the quest and re-take it to read the dialogue again to see if I missed something the first time.
This all means that I level very slowly but when I reach level cap I haven't missed much and I get a genuine sense of achievement from having played the game rather than raced to the end.
To me that is what MMORPGS are about.
They are supposed to be an alternative life in a fantasy world.
No one is rushing through real life to be 75 years old in order to see what life is like are they ?
Slow down folks - take time to look around ![]()

You do realise that you don't have to level in 10 days ?
I have been playing for about six weeks and my highest level is 35. I take my time to look around, explore, read the quests etc etc.
I have never understood the "race to level cap" mentality.
Play at your own pace and if you are the type of player who needs to rush then you have to accept the fact that no game lasts long if your power gaming.
