    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    B&S arena isn't "tacked on." It's actually balanced very finely and is even an eSport in South Korea. But that's all 1v1. And as far as Black Desert being "quest-based," that's not entirely true. The only quests worth doing are the initial 5 or 6 tutorial quests and your Black Spirit quests...

    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    I will probably be playing B&S casually, so the initial longevity of the game doesn't matter too much to me. I know the world PvP in B&S is horribly unbalanced but I still love it, especially the little PvP areas where you collect tokens from killing NPCs and take them back to your faction camp...

    Mushin will be super crowded for a month, then a ton of people will stop playing and all the servers will be dead except Mushin lol

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    MMORPGs are different, though. With MMORPGs, there is the expectation that one's purchases will be admired by others. The whales that seek that expectation flock to MMOs. If they didn't, they'd be playing crappy phone games as you say.

    The whales only spend so much money because they have other players to show their stuff off to. If the non-whales go away, so will the whales.

    Isn't it just Super Metroid with a male protagonist? If so, I agree.

    No source, but think about it. Trion used Rift as the guinea pig for the F2P model they would apply to Defiance, Trove, and ArcheAge. (Maybe Devilin too but I don't know anything about that game.) It had to have been successful or else they would've went with a different strategy for those other...

    The problem is that they're still making money. Many people consider games like Rift to have "failed" but the reality is that they're still making insane dosh. The time is not yet right.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I am being serious. With a few rare exceptions, the current MMORPG industry is "spend way too much money on development costs, then go F2P for easy money." As more and more players become alienated by this practice, the industry as a whole will do worse and worse, until even the whales can't...

    It is my hope that within the next couple of years, the MMORPG market will crash, and then a couple of years after that, the genre will rise anew, like a Phoenix from the ashes, but better than ever before. We just need some really big MMOs to fail in order to get the ball rolling...

    The RPG Thread

    AFAIK this is correct, though obviously it won't be the same MMORPG because that's shutting down. SE said they want to try to recreate the game as a single-player experience and then port it to mobile.

    Dunno, man. I was a resident of Siren from October 2014 to December 2014. As I understand, that was medium population, but even though I wasn't doing raids, the server was still pretty dead. The leveling experience was atrocious (no big FC's with people of different levels) and there were maybe...

    East Aranzeb did it to themselves. Their usage of hacking and spies took the "friendly" out of "friendly competition." They shouldn't be surprised that they're lonely now.

    I would not think of Undertale so highly if it weren't for the different playthroughs. You should definitely do all of them.
