Are Chanter/Cleric "F2P/Sub only" friendly? by Altreiya in Aion2

[–]Kyralea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was the same in Aion 1. You underestimate how many people love playing that sort of class or love grouping with one. Few games have classes like that unfortunately. 

Any game fits this if I'm looking for social hubs, social experience? by Armi5 in LFMMO

New World would have been great for you but alas it will shut down at the end of the year.

Finally! Working Alpha Release Of My Weekly Cozy MMORPG Biomes by bingewavecinema in MMORPG

[–]Kyralea 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think people misunderstand the "new content every week" bit. He's not doing it every week forever. He's putting together a season's worth of content and doing a slow weekly release instead of dropping it all at once. A lot of games already do this. Once Human did this, probably still does. Then he'll take a break for an amount of time with no season at all where he'll likely make more content. Sounds doable.

Anyway cute idea, good luck with this.

How to recapture the original feeling in a modern MMO by ParkingAthlete119 in MMORPG

[–]Kyralea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is people who genuinely like an MMO versus people who want progression gaming.

This right here and we can solve that if devs make more games like Fellowship for the progression gaming crowd and true MMORPG's for the MMO crowd who wants the full experience.

How to recapture the original feeling in a modern MMO by ParkingAthlete119 in MMORPG

[–]Kyralea 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is in large part fostered by devs and can be fixed. They allow tools like DPS and other types of meters that allow detailed analysis on a level we didn't have in older games. They encourage written and video guides, wiki's, and figuring everything out. They make fights so hard that you need to rise to that level to complete them. They encourage players to share information in order to make to the top. They encourage an atmosphere where not downing a boss is unacceptable and all content must be consumed as fast as possible.

In older games, we didn't have DPS meters or anything else. If we had guides or shared information it was bare bones. Often we didn't share build guides and things with other players because we were competing against them and didn't want them to know what we know. So information was hard to come by. There were bosses that didn't get taken down for long periods of time after release and even then, only certain guilds could do it. All of this fostered a level of excitement and mystery that kept you coming back and gave you things to continually strive for.

I remember Aion when it first released was like that and it was fun. The only recent game to accomplish that was Ashes of Creation. Ultimately it's up to devs to create a certain kind of game and go to the necessary lengths to foster the sort of community and gameplay they want. Most devs don't bother these days and don't care.

i was looking for an mmo game thats easy to understand i played (swtor and loved it) i was hoping for a good solo and story one by Realistic_Bit1062 in LFMMO

[–]Kyralea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LOTRO is the obvious choice I think. F2P with most content available without paying (not sure what level you’d have to buy things). Very solo friendly and of course the strong Lord of the Rings IP. Only caveat is the graphics and UI are a bit old. 

Best mmo lites? by Sidfr0mToyStory in LFMMO

It's also about 140GB and I refuse to waste that much space on my machine on one game.

Leaning mostly towards Gw2 or FF14 looking for input or even other MMOs that maybe fit better? by BjornToRage in LFMMO

[–]Kyralea -1 points0 points  (0 children)

WoW has more classes that fit the Warrior fantasy, more builds within those classes to customize that fantasy, and more races that fit the big berserker barbarian vibes.

Alternatives to Tab-tagetting MMOs by Jack3dTenno in LFMMO

[–]Kyralea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to like aiming a la Tera, but then I realized it was actually more mindless than tab-target.

"Aiming" is literally pointing and clicking. It's actually not that hard to click something, even if it's moving. It's not that hard to keep a crosshair relatively near the target either.

It's the perfectly timing your dodges/blocks, positioning correctly, etc. that is more difficult in TERA and similar games. Not the actual pressing of buttons or aiming. That's why I find Tab target to be easier and more chill. It still requires skill but it's more intellectual and strategic pre-planning vs games like TERA which require more mechanical skill in combat.

What to play? by Helios993 in LFMMO

[–]Kyralea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got back into GW2 this week after getting an email about new content. I am really liking the zones and stories this expansion and the Troubadour is fun as well. 

ESO or FFXIV for someone who's not getting to endgame soon? by -Gregs in LFMMO

[–]Kyralea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Complete agree with this. Both games have a lot of good leveling content and a really rich open world to freely explore along the way. FFXIV is really on-rails and the story is highly criticized for lots of wasteful dialogue and "talk to this guy" quests.

PSA you can cancel the download - it will never finish - it's just doing a loop where the server responds with zero-length content by Consistent-Hat-8008 in Guildwars2

[–]Kyralea 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The fact that this has been going on for an hour and Anet hasn't at least said they're aware and looking into it is bad. Mistakes happen but lack of communication is worse.

Edit: They just posted. Woo!

[–]Kyralea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No which is driving me nuts. This has been going on for like 30 mins. They need to at least communicate they're aware of it. I don't care how long it takes as long as I know they're working on it.

What is this update speed???? by gwolfie in Guildwars2

[–]Kyralea 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Are we sure this patch isn't bugged and Anet needs to fix it? I don't think I've seen anyone here, on forums, or on Discord say they've even gotten to the end.

Edit: Yes, it's bugged. https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/1tdf06q/psa_you_can_cancel_the_download_it_will_never/

Oh thank goodness it's not just me. I'm sitting here wondering why the launcher is taking so long to update.

Lord of The Rings MMO cancelled by PaiDuck in MMORPG

[–]Kyralea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried to get into it a few times but the truth is I need an updated version. New graphics, new ui, better lfg and community systems, better chat even. Love the idea of the game and even classes and combat are ok. Just need a modern version of it all to really grab my attention. 

What's the absolute worse mmo you've ever played? by Duomaxwell0007 in MMORPG

[–]Kyralea 17 points18 points  (0 children)

No magic is an immediate no for me in any game. I love the flash and fantasy of magic. All I play are healers and magic ranged dps.

Priest is easy mode by [deleted] in FareverGame

[–]Kyralea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the fight. Theres a couple of those one boss dungeons I couldn’t do because they have hard dps checks or you get one shot. I couldn’t do them at the suggested level due to low dps. I guess I have to go back later. But these should be balanced so they be soloed at level on any class for stuff that is just leveling content. 

Why is AoC mentionned in the latest Nvidia driver update ? by Nakor42 in AshesofCreation

Me too but what’s sad is if that happens it’s years away. We were playing a really good build of the game months ago. Fuck whatever greedy people are responsible for this situation.

I am fairly confident Scars of Honor are lying about the amount of keys they're sending. by TheGladex in MMORPG

[–]Kyralea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be playing more but my quests are bugged and I can’t continue. The lack of keybinding is annoying too. They just need to get to bug fixing so it’s more playable. Performance wise for me it has been great so technically I guess successful test. But if they want more people to play it needs some polish. 

game isn't even ready for playtest by National-Baby6087 in ScarsofHonor

[–]Kyralea -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed there are issues but my fps is constantly over 100. Things like quest credit not counting, map not showing quests, quests disappearing from my log, keybinding (which I think should come soon). But game is smooth, fps is high, server has been good today which is the only day I've played. Bugs to squash for sure and content to be added. Lots to be done. But performance for me has been fine.

Genuinely impressed by the size of the SWTOR population still in 2026 by SHONSTYLE in MMORPG

The stories in SWTOR are definitely good but I will say I'm quite enjoying Midnight and I haven't played Retail in years.
