lol let me guess, you are an mmo developer or publisher? I'd guess that you are because thats the same lack of imagination or blatant ignorance that 98% of the game companies, or at least the publishers seem to have. People DO like variations and additions to it, if they aren't done half *** and as after the fact poorly…

Apparently you have never played some of the more innovative mmo's out there. In the current batch of generic mmos, which is all alot of people (like you) seem to know, you are 100% right. In the best ones, or at least the ones I've played the longest and the ones that my friends and aquaintances like best and played the…

Yes the customer base is partly to blame, because they haven't yet spoken with their wallets as much as they need to. They keep buying the games and in game items just enough that publishers can see a profit by crapping out another generic mmo. People play them for 1-4 months and move on. Those games aren't lasting 15…

Yes the foundry is the one thing in neverwinter that is somewhat "revolutionary". The problem is that they put so many limitations on it that they shot themselves in the foot. No real boss mobs allowed is one of the biggest flaws. I'm not sure what they were afraid of there. And again its still just rooms and hallways.

Yeah I know it comes down to money, but the publishers of most recent games haven't exactly been able to cash in with their strategy either, not like wow did, and they wont until they realize that pushing more bare bones HAMSTER out the door is never going to create the next cash cow. Of course 3d engines take up more…

You are missing the point, and I venture to guess that you are some kind of idiot. Are you saying that the gameplay of yesterday just cant work with modern graphics? You could take a beefed up UO server only slightly modified, tack on a modern 3d engine to the client, model a 3d world to go with it and have a game that is…

lol... how little imagination you have. I'm not even saying we need fresh ideas, I'm wondering why we went backwards. If you look at the kinds of things you could do in Ultima Online 15 years ago, the interactivity of the world etc versus what most run of the mill mmo's deliver, its almost laughable. Current games have eye…

It still doesnt make for an interactive world like what UO had 15 years ago. Think of what the servers then could handle vs what they can do today. My smartphone is more powerful than the PC's of that day by a factor of 10. Seriously what the HAMSTER. I can only blame greedy publishers. Problem is that if they ever spent a…

I agree with these statements, if you are considering "old games" to be super mario style console games... And yet why is it that games nowadays have not progressed in feature depth further than the earliest mmos, and instead are released as more of the same shallow HAMSTER every time? Everquest one had most of the…
