I believe MMO's will only be fun like we remember it, is if people are willing to discover and prioritize the experience over consumption. I don't think that's the world we live in now. It's all about rushing to the endgame which has been the progression of the MMO state.

I agree with the first part, I don't really agree with the second, there are definitely a large number of players that want it that way. But game design plays a huge part in this. Games can be designed to discourage this and games that actively try to discourage min maxing will appeal to a different fan base than those that encourage it.

Interesting. Which MMORPGs discourage min-maxing? How do they do it?

The whiner guise of QoL is the end of mmo

Hopefully it is the only concession!!

I thought it was interesting, but tldr Nick is absolutely aware of the poopsockers and sorta addresses it, maybe not in the most satisfactory way but that it's within the thoughts.. i'll edit and throw the vod up when the stream is over.
