Is there any particular reason why MMOs died out?
>>4352 most games became open world and with much tighter crafted experiences compared to endless grinding, so mmos lost their appeal
>>4353 Also, every game became online fwend simulator so that aspect of MMOs became redundant.
>>4352 The reason why MMO's died out is that gamers want something for their money, and most MMO's requires a form of subscription. So, everything in an MMO now. Costs money to change to another server and they aren't really designed well enough for the hardcore tarded mmo nerd or designed enough for newcommers and today's design with hand holding and you having to be something awesome, just doesn't really fit with MMO's. Also mmo's aren't really great to start experimentation with, now you have the MMO-light that is live service games, like Destiny 1 and 2, and soon Marathon from Bungie. The only difference between a live-service game and an MMO is that you don't pay for a subscription and that you can finish all of the content, and the shared world and PVP or PVE part of the game is optional for the most part. you don't have to communicate with anyone, with an MMO you have to make a form of communication to even have a decent form of fun. So, MMO's lost to their smaller brothers or live games/mmo-light and these games are successful, even when the server costs can be a bit much. Also, one should not forget that allot of live service games are free to play after awhile. And, you can play the original champagne if you have the previous disc, or stored the old content
>>4360 People still play the 2 MMOs still around, it's not that everyone stopped playing but MMOs just died out.
Worst genre
MMOs require long term attention span, and zoomers can only into immediate gratification hence why all the popular online games nowadays are just mindless slop.
>>4360 >The reason why MMO's died out is that gamers want something for their money, and most MMO's requires a form of subscription. So, everything in an MMO now. Bullseye MMO's are a more primitive form of online addiction compared to today's looter shooter shit. KOTOR for example had these generic romances that all ended in marriage. Everything was a power trip and the choices you made along the way were almost meaningless. Plus the combat was beyond awful. MMOs were the most superficial money grabbing shit and it is absolutely good that they are dead.
>>4686 >MMOs were the most superficial money grabbing shit did you even play one?
>>4689 I listed an example.
>>4701 it's a non sequitur
They're flooded with non-humans. You have to go to the corners of gaming to find any actual humans - like tarkov, hunt showdown, arma(kind of), etc.
>>4724 >They're flooded with non-humans You mean blacks?
Gimmick genre.
>>4686 They're remaking KOTOR.

The combination of normalfags and capitalism will ruin absolutely anything that you let it touch. When there's 100s of millions of borderline retards (getting more retarded every day thanks to processed goyslop and contaminated water and immigration and racemixing with monkeys and 24/7 physical contact with an overpowered radio device) with disposable income waiting to throw money at you, it's very hard to convince a company that's big enough to produce an MMO to not cater to those normalfags. You can talk all day about what an MMO "should" be like, just like you can talk all day about what the internet or society "should" be like, but there's no incentive for anyone to do that when the current thing is way more profitable and society is specifically designed to reward money and only money.
>>5805 name a single western country that has capitalism
>>5806 Name one that doesn't.
>>5807 typical retard that thinks economic policy, social programs and public-private grants are muh capitalism, capitalism doesnt exist in the west dumbass if it did zombies wouldnt exist
>>5808 >only the highly specific version of capitalism that I prefer is real capitalism

>>5808 Who gives a shit about your pedantic little red herring, glownigger-kun? This anon is right >>5805 . >When there's 100s of millions of borderline retards (getting more retarded every day thanks to processed goyslop and contaminated water and immigration and racemixing with monkeys and 24/7 physical contact with an overpowered radio device) with disposable income waiting to throw money at you, it's very hard to convince a company that's big enough to produce an MMO to not cater to those normalfags. Petulantly language-lawyering your philosophies doesn't change the fact that kikes are the single biggest problem in vidya today, indeed all of civilization.
>>5809 any form of wealth redistribution is literally the exact opposite of capitalism you fucking 1iq imbecile
>>5805 >cuckchan
>>5806 >real capitalism has never been tried!

>>6339 Dunno tbh. But the editors of the page decided to put Deshawn Travon's head in as if the nigger was an important insight into solving the question. Therefore >snopes says: FAKE NEWS
>>6345 But doesn't it look like the negro is using the keyboard as a hitting rock like a primordial ape, not knowing what to actually do with it? A very accurate depiction tbh.
Do you miss MMOs?
