I'm just hoping it's a big enough fail that Bethsoft doesn't mess around in the MMO arena ever again, but not a big enough fail that it sinks the company. :hmm:

It kinda just feels like Skyrim but with a bunch of other people wandering around. I guess similar to if you played Skyrim with a bevy of followers.

:D Indeed, we want a TES VI! 

I've barely begun to scratch the surface of this one.  I keep restarting at around lvl 25 after adding new mods.  And I'm trying to get my head around the CK to make a house... less than intuitive.  <_<

I've actually been hankering to play an MMO again, but the problem is it'd need to be very different from the MMOs that were popular from 1999-2012. So I kinda miss certain aspects of say, having a character you develop overtime in a multiplayer setting, but I can't think of any implementation that's out there for that genre that I'd want to play again. I guess I'm wanting someone to invent a new and fun take on MMOs. I'm not holding my breath on that happening  :D.

You and I are in the same boat.  I also miss having a character I can develop over time and play with friends from time to time.  But then I realize most game design focuses on getting to the end game grinds asap. 

When WoW was first released it was a lot of fun because it took a lot of time to get to the end game.  I didnt really start playing the end game until years after release.  That was fun for a while but I have been there and done that.  I want something different now.

Really?  Maybe I should look into it.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Heh, no...I don't think that's going to be happening any time soon.  Is it because the industry's become risk-averse and won't try anything paradigm-shattering, or is it because there's only so many ways to build a sustainable MMORPG mouse trap and we're all fresh out of cheese?

Yeah, I think I'd like to find a game that is like WoW was when I first played it, but it may be that experience is only really fun precisely because it's the first time you've done it. Although I did actually enjoy EverQuest for a couple years from like 99-01, then picked up WoW in '05 or so; maybe it just needs a longer cooling off period.

A friend recommended Tera to me, so I've been messing around with that.

He likes it a lot, but I am kind of "Meh". Same old, same old, so far as I can tell.

With some really weird art choices.

Oh yeah, Tera was kinda of fun. Especially when they gave everyone a max character.

Koreans enjoy really weird art.

The bad thing with Tera is that the American & European publishers and player base have no inputs on the game. Korea decides & we get stuck with those decision.

Played during the stress test...first time in beta for the game.  I loved EQ.  I loved WOW.  I really liked SWOR.  I was very meh about this game.  Too many negatives to make me pony up the money for the game and the monthly fee.  Oh well.
