This general is for discussing old, new, and upcoming MMOs, including MMOs with communities that are too small to sustain their own generals. If you are on one of these forgotten/niche games on Veeky Forums, looking for a guild, friends, or just want to know the state of the game, ask here.
Which is the go-to MMORPG right now? apart from Runescape, WoW and Guild Wars 2. How good is FFXIV?
Jacob Baker
Anyone looking forward to the NA archage private server? it starts in 9 hours.
Ethan Butler
I heard it's really good once you get past the old content but I haven't really tried it out myself also was told getting past that content took about 20 something hours
I wish crowfall doesn't disappoint, it's the one I'm looking forward to
I think most of them are coming "2018" :^)
Matthew Sanders

---Based on stream / vod interest--- Current Popularity in order appears to be
1. WoW *huge gap between WoW and #2* 2. BDO 3. Runescape 4. Lineage II 5. Destiny 2 ( sort of counts as an MMO ) 6. G W 2 7. BnS 8. Tera
Anthony Lee
no, unless they completely remove all the p2w items
Eli Williams
mmog is alive!?
Colton Wright
yes please tell the /dfog/fags to come I miss them

Give us your most obscure MMO that you are playing.

It's okay. If you're a big fan of the FF series, give it a shot. It's got the most tedious leveling that I've ever encountered, literally every instance and activity in the game is locked behind a quest. It's got good music and nice aesthetics, dress-up game is pretty strong. Gameplay at max level is much, much more involved than it is early on. Content releases are shallow with little replay value, but come out regularly. End-game is gear currency grind and loot lockouts, there's only one "hard" boss rush (they call it a raid, it's just 4 boss fights) per major patch and the past couple iterations of it have been incredibly easy.
Michael White
I've got pre alpha access to crowfall, it seems to be chugging along pretty nicely. It's still barely a game so I don't know if it will be good or not. Devs are really communicative.
Jonathan Perry
This game had my favourite female body builds.
Jayden Perry
>and the past couple iterations of it have been incredibly easy.
Compared to what? WoW? GW2? FFXIV is way harder than any of these in most Savage encounters.
Adrian King
Creator and Omega were much easier than Midas or Gordias. I started in 2.5 after Coil was relevant. I played Tera for a couple years before ffxiv and I think MCHM and Abscess Hard were more difficult than any Savage fight I've done with the exception of A3S. I didn't clear 4 or 8 when they were relevant but I am a healer so they probably would have been quite tough also. Before Tera I played Eve so I don't have any experience with WoW or GW.
Carson Anderson
Is there any new mmo that can replace early Mabinogi?
Aiden Robinson
Lads, I've been going through some shit lately and I really need a good MMO. I need it to be addictive as shit and with some decent gameplay at least. I don't mind the social aspect, I just want to senselessly grind myself to death.
Hudson Carter
Not that guy but easier than brain dead literally means nothing, i tried XIV again for Creator and whatever the first part of stormblood was, deltascape? Either way it was just as boring as before.
Pretty much every MMO boss these days just equates to a glowing floor dance for the majority of the "mechanics", sure Savage removes the glowing floor from most of them but it doesn't change anything except you have to already know where to stand going into it. The only things XIV does that are hard would only be hard in a pug group with no voice chat from my experience.
Brayden Lee
What MMOs don't have P2W cash shops I've burnt out on OSRS and WoW is just doing the same thing over and over again waiting for Titanforge/Legendary
Samuel Hughes
Just play a wow private server.
Sebastian Martinez

Isn't it FlyFF?
Josiah Wright
Has there been an action morpg more fun than Rusty Hearts since it died? I was hoping Closers might fill the void, but after having reached lvl 60 in the alpha, it seems even more like a generic action morpg. Seeing what the new skills for each promotion was pretty cool, but after a few runs it got The PvP is also worse than I was expecting it'd be.
At least Rusty Hearts was kind of like Tekken and a more grounded Devil May Cry combat-wise, and you could both universally block and evade with all the characters. I guess I shouldn't be complaining since I never played Elsword and Closers is supposed to be more similar to that, but I hate the fact that you can't even change the direction of your regular attacks mid-combo, since changing direction just cancels the combo.
Dylan Brooks
Aura Kingdom always had cute art. The problem is the game itself was just too basic. Basic combat. Basic leveling. Basic crafts. Basic Dungeons.
Some people love it like that and appreciate the traditional MMORPG which is why AK still seems to have a steady playerbase. But these days MMOs are competitive, and so games need to do something to stand out.
My dream game would be AKs accurate anime art with action combat and a huge open world with open questing like guild wars or BDO and a competitive PvP mode that is actually fun. Why can't it exist ;_;
Aaron Barnes
Nothing has been filling the void since I quitted WoW. Everything just feels so boring and isn't addicting at all, it just doesn't feel fun. I don't know what WoW had, maybe it was the community? I never knew what got me into it, the story was okay and I liked some of the characters but there wasn't any particularly special about it but it got me hooked for so many years. I even tried playing one of those weeb mobages and I got addicted to it for a few months but it's just starting to get boring now, I really need something else soon.
Juan Evans
If it was the community, the internet back then is very different than the internet we have now, user. Or maybe you're just burnt out. Whenever I try out MMOs now I tend to play solo. Occasionally I'll meet 2-3 people that I sometimes party with who don't act in a too annoying way or repeatedly do stupid things "ironically".
Christian Taylor
Man, really wish the Internet still were like back then. I remember talking to a bunch of anons on Ventrilo about random shit and talking to a bunch of cute femanons, it was great. But nowadays everyone is just too worried about other stuff. I recently just left my job to become a neet again and start enjoying some stuff like the old times but everything that I knew of is dead.
Jeremiah Myers
most mmos now aren't what I would like them to be, I want to get lost in a big world and ask for directions and team up with strangers to take down bosses, maybe rest on a campfire afterwards and then get ambushed by some mobs, share stories, etc
it's just mindless grind without encouraging players to interact with each other
Jeremiah Price
Maybe we could just team up and start playing and MMO together with some other anons, that would be fun at least.
Andrew Murphy
>started seeking out old wildstar content that was cut or changed. find out about cut zones, races, and story changes >tfw no one cares about the game anymore so nobody to discuss it with Oh well. have some mordesh tiddies.
Hudson Williams
How is Bless Online?
Tyler Rivera
Seemed alright when I tried the ru beta. The dev is "rebuilding" it because it had problems and was doing poorly, it's basically getting a ffxiv treatment lite. The thing that'll make or break it though is how much they improve optimization.
Tyler Green
I could always go for Mordesh, Granok or Mechari girls. Hot damn.
Grayson Wood
don't die
David Hill
Make Atlantica Great Again!
Jaxson Phillips
which mmo, I think it would be hard for everyone to agree to something though
Mason Howard
no loli no potato no buy
Julian Butler
Can't remember how many mmog has tried this and failed. We had fun for 1-2 weeks though.
Leo Collins
I want something where I can take it easy but also with loli so we can keep the normies away
Jacob Moore
the only bad thing abiut lolis is that people will spend more time erping than playing the game
Sebastian Turner
Been interested in checking out Black Desert Online. Have an itch for an MMO and too burned out on PSO:BB. A bit reluctant on asking about it in the general though since I'll probably just get memed to death. How is the game current state? Is there P2W cash shops? Does it actively try to not have you interact with other players like WoW (WoD and after)?
Brody King
Cash shop sells tonnes of P2W shit otherwise I'd definitely play it
Jack Parker
can we get into a new mmo at least? I miss the times where there was a gorillion mmo releases every month. Too bad the arena format killed them
Hunter Turner
that'd be nice but what mmo releases soon?
Jackson Watson
Please let's play a f2p one, I'm just a poor neet right now.
Parker Allen
same desu
Jose Sanchez
How do I enjoy GW2? Is it supposed to be a positive that there's no vertical progression? I feel like I'm doing the same shit without getting any more powerful at all.
When I go to the forums everyone says this is one of the best aspects of the game. Why? I don't get any stronger. I go to any part of the map and I get scaled anyway. So what's the fucking point? Why play this game?
Parker Johnson
Man, thats a bummer Thanks for the warning, was about to pull the trigger on it but now it's out of the question.
Connor Lee
but which one
Mason Harris
do you like the grindan games?
Jack Morris
wish there was a game where we could form a mob and assault people ;_;
Asher Turner
>where we could be cute girls and form a mob and assault people
Fixed that for you, mate.
Angel Parker
buy my game losers
Mason Brown
So I filtered the steam mmo category by "free" and "anime" and I got this. Are these games even new or they just showed up on steam for a few last shekels before dying?
Christian Evans
>or they just showed up on steam for a few last shekels before dying? More or less this. On an odd occasion though it does rez the game, but most show up to squeeze a few extra bucks before death.
Hunter Lewis
>kritika haha
Robert Scott
just pick a game already
Lincoln Rodriguez

>tfw remembering an MMO you used to like that died RIP Archlord. Wish I played you more.
John Hall
How's albion online? Good? Fun? Doesn't really look like an MMO
Lincoln Richardson
I had 2 people tell me it's mobile shit and that they dropped it like 3 days after buying it
Dylan Reyes
why are there so many ragnaroks online? lol
Levi Morgan
Pantheon for me.
I dont know what it is about the game but i actually want it to do well
I miss that fucking game and then the lead designer goes to blizzard
Leo Reed

Brandon Hughes
the p2w doesn't really matter as far as gameplay goes, everyone playing it has the same shit.
Its more about whether or not you want your game to cost like 200€ upfront
Ethan Peterson
ewww a rat
Ryan Cooper
it's been too long...

Which is the best MMO for ERP?
Joshua Reyes
I'm sure you could find a healthy ERP community on any mmo, but WoW and gw2 would probably be good choices. Check out what games darknest is active on.
Dominic Cooper

Jaxson Butler

Nolan Scott
Honestly I loved Aura Kingdom, I shouldn't have quit when I did since the private server I used to play doesn't seem to be around nor the Aura Kingdom General.
Tyler Perry
No I myself made it because I was lonely and bored
