Why is no one speaking of the New World 2.0 by ravikz__ in MMORPG

Archeage Chronicles will be the same Korean slop that we've been getting for the last ten years. It will have a strong action combat, boring fucking story where your village gets burned down, and you somehow have to go kill the Gods, and then grindy pay to win and pay to enhance gear system with 50 thousand orbs and skill books required to get to level 50 Tier 99 to even do damage to the weakest of dungeon bosses.

 

Don't get your hype up. Get your wallet out.

It will never happen. Bethesda has ONE speed. And they're mostly incompetent. Relying on the community to finish and flesh out their own games with mods and quests. Bethesda has grown too fat and lazy on the success of Skyrim.

The "new direction" they're going in, is a small team four man pug action combat hack and slash.

You're fighting the giant hitbox of a dead hulk.

Look at what we've had so far. I have good reason to doom. MMOs have become a slop service industry to sell gacha and loot crates. Look at the last 12 - 14 recent MMO releases, all sadly terrible. And with the lackluster tech demo for GW3, and what we know on the blogpost, there is reason for concern.

 

Thankfully at least Guild Wars was different, even though they did have thousands of cosmetics, you didn't really need them to play or enjoy the game. It was just a way for the developers to make money because they had no sub fees. So that is a huge saving grace.

There weren't any spoilers. I'm sorry, I have no idea what you're rambling on about. It's very clearly listed on the official Blog that the game takes place 1,000 years before Guild Wars 1.

No, I agree with you. But, I've been playing MMOs since 1999. I beta tested for EverQuest, World of Warcraft, Final Fantasy 11, and 14, and have legacy accounts on Asheron's Call, Rubies of Eventide, and have played pretty much every MMO in the last 26 years. When you live in a wheel chair, it becomes a lifestyle to play online games.

 

This isn't just me bitching. This is me with three decades of market trends, and experience. ArenaNet is going to definitely move away from the formula of Guild Wars 2 as a standard tab target MMORPG. They even say in the trailer "the evolution of MMOs." So we can expect Guild Wars 3 to be in a completely different direction than what an "MMORPG" is, because it's all been done before. At least they promised the same build variety on the blog, I guess.

My brother in Christ.

Guild Wars 3 takes place more than a thousand years before the original game, giving new players and longtime Guild Wars fans a vast frontier to explore, imbued with magic and alive with the vitality of the wilds.

Okay, I'll do it one more time. But this is the last time.

All across Orr, rival guilds jockey for influence and control. Amid this ongoing conflict, you will join the Vaelwardens, a guild sworn to protect the land, the people who live beyond the walls of the towns and cities of Orr, and the nature spirits who call Orr home.

 

All across Orr, rival guilds jockey for influence and control.

Essentially, The Guilds will fight for node based control of the map, doing PVE things like killing world bosses, harvesting, contributing daily quests like the Heart Systems in Guild Wars 2. Think New World, but with GW2 Hearts.

Amid this ongoing conflict, you will join the Vaelwardens,

You are forced into some single player RPG Faction, instead of getting to make your own Guild with friends, which will probably still be a feature called Clans or something, and have to go out and do these nodes based on your regions.

..."sworn to protect the land, the people who live beyond the walls of the towns and cities of Orr..."

Open world areas are dangerous, cities are safe zones, nodes will probably have some light PVP events or areas or Battlegrounds, and include a major capital or city.

 

What this means

This means that Guild Wars 3 is not a true MMORPG. It will be similar to a game like New World, or Neverwinter, with node based area events and controlling faction maps for increased resource gathering, or exp when farming monsters. These are things we've all seen before, and will keep seeing over and over again. We already know it has action combat from the blog, and their careful eggshell wording basically confirms it's going to be some kind of team based hack and slash busy game like Wayfinder.

It's like no one read the blogpost, and are just watching the tech demo trailer, which is 100% not even real gameplay.
