What browser MMO's did you play as a kid? For me, it's Alien Adoption Agency.
>>12722395Club Penguin but I doubt that counts as /vr/
>>12722440>Club Penguin but I doubt that counts as /vr/>Club Penguin was made available to the general public on October 24, 2005It actually does
I played Kingdom of Loathing for like a day. I always wanted to try that official Zork one that existed since i always thought an rpg set in that setting would be neat.
>>12722395RunescapeThis was my greatest mistake
I played pokemon crater in my afterschool program every day as a kid.
"Browsers" didn't exist when I was a kid.We connected to BBSes on our dialup modems and played "door games". They were pretty awesome, even when they were simple. Asynchronous online play is underrated.
Telnet:whitesands.net:4000The place I'll return to someday ;_; (sad flutes)
I played Urban Dead and similar ones like Shartak, Quarantine 2019, Nexus Clash, Shintolin etcUD closed recently and the others have only about 100-400 players. Many of those characters are alts so real player numbers are smaller. There are rules to keep alts apart and not help each other, but still feels immersion breaking to know there's so many alts.Most of these games are either dead, dying or (imo) got ruined by updates.
>>12722395>AAAi hated it. got PVP to death. but i was already 18 when i found out about it?>as a kid.the MMOs didn't exist yet. at most we had HTML/WebGL/SVG adventure games on browsers.
>>12723569ok telnet games existed but i didn't know about it until i was an adult.
>>12722395Only Runescape and I didn't really play it. Mostly just an electronic place to hang out with this girl I met on Yahoo Messenger chat rooms in like 2003. (It was the "Xtreme Sports" chat room because that was were all the cook sk8ter kids like us were.) We just did the mutual follow thing that made it look like we were dancing while chatting.
>>12723569MMOs existed, they were (and still are) called MUDs.
>>12724242not on browsers , no.
>>12722894hell yeah, Trade Wars 2002 was the shit, there were so many ways to fuck over other players
>>12723348UD was still going? I remember rolling with the Gibsonton Pros back in the day. Good times.
pimp wars
>>12722395Dofus was/is technically a browser MMO since it's Flash. The tutorial area was available on some Flash game website for a while and the installer version could be played in any Flash-capable browser.Also TPPCRPG if that counts.Good times.
Idr what it was called, but it was 20 years ago. You basically raided other people's castles with an army using whatever weapons you buy. You can buy defensive weapons to counter raids. I remember that anyone who made the mistake of revealing which specific weapons they had on the website's chatroom could find that someone sabotaged them all and then get raided.But idr what the game/site was called.
played a shit ton of both kingdom of loathing and neopets back in the day.i forgot my neopets password and the email service i used as a teenager before gmail became a thing went offline, so it is literally irretrievable.i also played a bunch of MUDs, i browser interfaces for those count.
Cocklefighting
Does this count?
>>12724497Was it hotmail? Prodigy?
>>12726860ffonline.net used to host email in addition to game guides, and i was a huge final fantasy fag as a teen
