Bot management systems are unlikely to detect your thread unless the OP explicitly includes the keyword “MMO.”
>>731028890Racing games.All stages of all games are reskinned loops.You only ever use 4 buttons.Zero improvements in gameplay since Top Gear Rally peaked in 1997.
>>731028890>>all worlds are built like theme parksand that's a good thing
>you'll never get another MMO where the levelling up IS the journey
>>731033193the MMORPG genre being usurped by people who don't like RPGs will never not be funny to me
>>731031358mario kart
How did the French manage to make the best MMORPG of 2026?
>>731028890Niggers who say shit like this but only played WoW and it's clonesRunescape solved MMO 25 years ago
>saves the rts genre>saves the mmo genrebased chink overlords
>>731036231It may have solved the MMO part, but the RPG part is abysmal dogass sadly.
>>731035895No idea what that shit is.>>731033193>Hit max level >Nothing to do Great idea
>>731036231>Good MMO is when you click rocks for 6 months instead of doing multiplayer content
>>731036678>the RPG part is abysmal dogass sadly.how?
>>731036743As opposed to>Run a dungeon at max level>Nothing to do for a week
>>731036981First MMO? Grinding is a staple of the genre. Also, why would you do it instead of multiplayer content? you can do both.
>>731029218That reminds me, I haven't seen the "remove leveling REMOVE LEVELING mmo thread" retard in a little while. Did his bot finally break?
>>731037104The only people I know who play OSRS do nothing but solo grind skills and solo kill bossesThey don't even really do anything with each other despite being in the same friend group
>>731037416cool anecdote friend
>>731036743>omg im FAAARMING IM A STRIMMER WITH 4000 HOURS WHY CANT I SPEND 1.000.0000 HOURS DEVS PLEASE MAKE GOOD GAEM
>>731033193Just play a single-player game if that's what you want. There's no point in an MMO that just focuses on leveling.
>Game gives you a massive world to explore>Reach max level>Okay, now forget about the fun massive world and get in the end game raid boxHonestly a strange game design, the appeal of end game raiding is lost on me
>>731037416>people i knowDo stupid people really think anyone cares about their friends?
>walk past a guy >give him my buff >doesn't give me his
>>731038906>the appeal of end game raiding is lost on meYou don't know what the appeal of co-op multiplayer is?
>>731028890It's grim. Even the niche sandbox gameplay is come back to every few years got enslopofied. Everything in this gods forsaken genre is destined to become a treadmill like wow
>>731036231The rpg part is probably its strongest part. The mmo aspect is its weakest
>>731039054I'm complaining about the gear treadmill part
>>731039431>gear drops>you get a little hit of dopamine>your numbers get bigger>more dopamineit's not that complicated, anon.
>>731039578That's great for gerbils, I'm sure you had fun
>>731039691>He's jealous of gerbilsTragic.
>>731039691>working incrementally toward a goal makes you a gerbilThis is how I know you've never been good at anything.
>>731039115Is there a single mmo left that isnt a rush you to the endgame weekly raidlog loop? I used to fucking love mabi for how it wasnt that
>>731040367OSRS
>>731040406OSRS basically doesn't matter until you get to bossing tier combat which is literally the endgame.all of the shit you do <90 in a skill might as well be filler content.
>>731040406I said an MMO
>>731040463>OSRS basically doesn't matter until you get to bossing tier combat what does this even mean?>>731040540I said OSRS.
>>731028890guild wars 1 doesn't have any of these qualities except for the tab targeting. we are in the bad timeline where every MMO (including guild wars's sequel) copied WoW. there was a possible good timeline where every MMO copied gw1 but we'll never see it.
>>731039115Sandbox game i come back to* Dumb autocorrect. Yeah phone poster i know
>>731040581>game full of solo quests>cant even kill shit with others, you literally cant attack a target someone else is already attackingnice mmo
>>731040463OSRS is a sandbox game you can play however you want. Sure most people want to get to high levels and do high PVM contents but that's not the only way to play the game.
>>731040661Has the gw2 modern writing sensibilities creeped back into gw1 reforged? I'm thinking of picking the game up.
>>731038774Games being designed around streamers and no-life sweats is disastrous, change my mind.
>>731040751>the only way you can engage with a world of other players is through small-group co-op combat or it's not massively-multiplayer.kek. no wonder the industry is filled with wow clones. they're all catering to people as rigid and vapid as you.
Planetside 2. :^)
>>731040463>all of the shit you do <90 in a skill might as well be filler content.
>>731040890How do you engage with others in osrs outside of pvp? Im genuinely curious cause for pve all ive ever seen was solo skilling, solo questing, and solo bossing
>>731041458trading/economy, player housing, clans, group bossing, raids, group ironman, social skilling worlds, etc
>>731041458...Talk to them?
>>731041308>an austistic girl might understand you like the color blue, but have no idea that it would upset you if she wandered off and became a pirate on the high seas.
>>731040835No, reforged is just HQ textures + some mechanical changes.
>>731040581Everything up to the point that you're running bosses is filler. Bosses are mostly at 90+ combat stats. An overwhelming majority of shit you grind on is 0 threat to you, and likely makes you 0 money or resources that matter. This is true for MOST skills, but especially combat.
>>731041308>wow look at these new materials/items I can gather/craft that serve no purpose aside from allowing me to get more xp/hr to get to actual items people would either use or purchase.Most people only bother raising skills because they're pre-reqs for quests.
>>731042808All gatherables in runesecape remain relevant throughout the game. It's why early levels and f2p worlds are infested with bots kek
>>731042031>>731041745at that point might as well join a chat room. The point is OSRS has little to no actual multiplayer content. It doesn't have to be combat but a way to interacted with the game world with other players is a keep component of MMOs. Hell even the Sims Online figured this shit out. Yeah it's a social mmo, but there are tons of activities that can be done in a group which helps stimulate the conversation.OSRS group content is people just talking to each other while they stand around idling.
Come home white man.
>join a chat roomExcept almost nobody else in that random chat room will also be playing OSRS.Even if you solely use OSRS's multiplayer features for chatting, you already have the common theme of OSRS.Quadruple. Retard.
>>731043054>at that point might as well join a chat roomDo you really believe this or are you just pretending to not know the difference?
>>731043159It's not that good.
>>731043207NTA but i believe it, runescape is a worthless game outside of nostalgia
>another thread where Dofus is best MMORPG
>>731042930Sure, which is why everyone uses the same potions for combat, the same food for healing, and the same gear.
>>731028890If you don't like tab targeting then I do not respect you.
>>731044612All wrong
>>731044424>runescape is a worthless game outside of nostalgiaAnon, when we grow up we learn that "thing I don't like" and "things everyone ought to hate" are two entirely separate concepts.
>>731044540the only bummer with dofus/wakfu is the aggressive french nature of how the quests are written. You do a lot of esoteric bullshit for a few levels and then bigass deserts of nothing to do except grind dungeons. Granted, I really love the combat. I really wish the game wasn't build around you basically multi-boxing since coop gameplay is rough.
Does Dungeons and Dragons Online even counts as a MMORPG? It's not very "massively", I think.Regardless, my favorite game of this kind, with Mabinogi being a close second and peak Archage the third, I think.Actually, Ultima Online is somewhere in there. Probably tied with Mabinogi.
>>731045464Mabinogi got New Rise'd and everyone is being pushed into the end game hamster wheel unfortunately. None of the directors have tried to expand the fantasy life aspects of the for a decade so this was natural course of things.
>>731040661>could've been in the timeline where Kaplan and his group of retards + Chilton's faggot ass never got involved in WoW and spread their stench where it didn't belong>a timeline where they don't piggy back off the hardwork of the people who came before while they contributed basically nothing except "ONLY RAIDS MATTER ALSO SIMPLIFY THE CLASSES" and "we NEED everything to be RED vs BLUE!">that WoW becomes the model for all other MMOs to ape instead of our cancerous WoW, meaning less "dungeon/instance spam -> raidlogging endgame" and more actual open world/living breathing interactive world concepts>actual golden promised land of MMO content in that timelineFaggot ass curse we've been handed and forced to live with, I say.
>>731046167fuck my life man
>tfw bought GW2 but still need to finish out it's storyYou know, I never understood the "skip story" people even in shit like WoW until I played this.There's a decent amount of okay / good enough / "whatever" stuff, then a few select spots I'd say are legitimately good like Icebrood saga and the first half of LW4, but then you have to trudge through absolute dog water like LW1-2 the last 1/3 of SotO all of EoD, and a couple others that will suck your soul straight out your arse from the misery.It really doesn't help that sylvari are an entire race seemingly devised by a room filled exclusively with californian modern women. It's literally just Canach that's decent and he got flanderized pretty hard in EoD and even harder beyond.
What the fuck is this?
>>731040756>Sure most people want to get to high levels and do high PVM contents but that's not the only way to play the game.It's not the only way to play WoW, FFXIV, Guild Wars or anything else either but for some reason OSRS is the only game afforded this level of dick sucking.>>731048980grief slop
i went back to guild wars 1 and been playing for a month
>>731028890The problem is the first two are a winning formula, but every MMO that comes out tries something else instead even though everything that does all fails.
MMOs are pretty much dead right now.WOW is a crock of shit.XIV is a crock of piss.GW2 is bland as fuck and stale, too.All of the old-school ones like Flyff are monetized to pretty much exclusively attract only whales.It's a dead genre. It's unironically over.
