ITT: Forgotten MMORPGs you've played
>MMORPG
kill yourself
>>342257889
I was young with a lot of free time, like a lot of people here
i bet no one here played this shit besides me
>>342257728
I remember playing this as a 13-year-old who couldn't read English for shit. That game was flooded with turks.
>>342259918
I did, I remember the orc-ish race had gunarms that were pretty cool
>>342260071
I Remember the option to play as a action RPG blew my 13 years old mind, i was a human holding a 2h sword as far i rember, the mass PvP was a lagfest
it was pretty fun
>>342259918
I played it, the spells were stylish
>>342260034
they were everywere, they ruined silkroad online too
Guild Wars Factions
>>342257728
Fuck you, I thought that was Shaiya for a moment.
Main site doesn't even host the download anymore.
Lazy devs stopped working on it in like 2008 and never tried selling the rights or open sourcing.
It was EVE online just not in space and it was amazing
>>342257889
>no ones allowed to like anything I don't!
Go back to /v/.
>>342262486
Every time I see the old client picture I get mad nostalgia. It's almost like I can still hear my desktop humming late at night.
I don't think any game will ever strike me with genuine fear whenever I was about to die. That red skull is PTSD inducing.
beta was a blast
>>342262718
Is that motherfucking Conquer?
>>342262469
Is it dead now?
I remember that shit was alright.
>>342262871
It fuckermother is
>>342262448
I loved this game.
One time I sat on some bridge and AFKed for a few hours.
When I came back, the bridge was flooded with people and then the admins spawned a black hole that jailed anyone blocking the bridge.
Saga of Ryzon
RIP
I really want to play Silkroad again.
>>342262486
BR detected
Did anyone ever play Fiesta Online?
All I really remember about it was Clerics were broken and Kingdom Quests were kinda neat.
>>342257728
There are more people on steam playing knight online daily then there are playing battleborn
>this is runescape now
this was my shit back in the day
Rappelz
Kal Online
Cabal Online, probably the best f2p game up until 2012 or so.
>>342263357
Not exactly forgotten though is it?
From what i've heard it's actually pretty fucking dope these days, even gaining back players.
This
>>342263337
lel, you're right
there are also 30 times more people playing knight online than there are playing Evolve
>>342257728
FUCKING TURKS MAN, still best pvp to date tho
Forgotten by the west. Still one of the top grossing MMOs thanks to chinks and russians.
>>342263871
And this
I'll be alone with this one.
>>342263357
Except both RS3 and OSRS are doing good.
>>342264084
Is that Anarchy Online? Or is it Matrix?
>>342264084
Neocron. I played it.
>>342264084
Neocron?
>>342264321
Nice. Usually gets no replies in these threads.
>>342263947
Was literally the best mmo of all time up until the Goddess of destruction chronicle or whenever the fuck the NC jews introduced all the p2w shit and tanked the droprates in the already absurdly grindy game.
It became pretty much impossible to play the game without botting or paying microtransactions
>>342264084
Isnt there a private server running for necron? I'm pretty sure I pleyed it 2 years ago.
>>342257889
>im le 2 kewl to play nerdy mmorpgs
I dont think OP is the one here who needs to tie a noose around his neck
>>342264581
Shit, I remember playing this.
Forever a place in my heart.
It's crazy that so many MMORPGs exist. The vast majority of them barely get any players and yet they all have servers up and worlds built (albeit 99% of MMO worlds are dogshit) and all the content and art/programming assets etc etc etc. It literally takes a team of several people with a wide range of skills just to make a throwaway MMO that nobody plays.
>>342263329
Wait, holy shit I just checked and the game is still running. I thought it died years ago, did some other company start running it or something?
Not exactly a mmorpg, but anyone played s4 league?
>>342264775
private servers were the shit
>>342264861
A MMO can honestly sustain itself with as little as 2k active players on a server.
Until WoW came along, having 10k+ players was thriving and 100k+ was a massive fucking hit.
>>342264775
Full with turks.
Those damn turks. They're like the BRs of europe
>>342263329
that fucking game. Did more socializing than playing there
>>342264912I still have one installed and log in with a friend from time to time for shit and giggles
I'm glad so many Germans are still passionate about the game.
God damn i miss this game. One day we'll have a private server, if I keep dreaming hard enough.
>>342264893
yup, until it became pay2win to an extreme point
basically until aeria got a hold of it
>>342265025
I only played for a few months before giving up since the P2W seemed really bad, especially on the equipment enhancing and things like that.
>>342262486
>Meanwhile in Carlin
i miss exteel
Dransik and when it became Ashen Empires
Trickster Online.
You can still play it here, too. https://www.playtrickster.com/index.php
Grindy as fuarrk but an all-you-can-eat buffet of cozy.
>>342263947
>Check again
>Its actually Lineage 1 that is one of the top grossing, not 2
Holy fuck how.
>>342265025
>tfw you get teleported to jail by a gm because you were insulting randoms on the street
I was a badass 13 y/o outlaw back then.
>>342258201
holy. the nostalgia
fujin master race btw
>>342265261
Played engineer
Tried to find it again recently with no luck.
>yfw Tabula Rasa servers were closing
We should make a steam group and play some of these old MMO's, lots of them are still alive and kicking
VCO
>>342265279
i almost married someone. dont laugh
>>342265372
dem proportions mane
>>342257728
Anyone else played this shit?
Cabal, Fiesta, Excel, Perfect World, Tantra
>>342264775
>everyone at school used to play this shit
>like everyone
>this guy comes up to my class group who was playing and starts by saying he doesn't understand how they can enjoy that
>"it's not realistic"
>"of course not, it's suppose to be fantasy"
>"yeah, but you do things like riding horses and shit"
to this day i still laugh about that
>>342265518
I remember this.
>>342265252
Holy shit, a fellow Dransik player? I played from Classic to New World, but quit well before AE.
That game, though. I can still hear the login theme in my head.
>>342265261
Did not realize how much of a weeb game this was when I was younger.
>>342265240
>someone starts working on spiritual successor
>project gets c&d'd by Nexon
>'lol we're still thinking about Exteel, just wait nerds'
>3+ years later, nothing
>Project HON got shitcanned
Fuck it, I have the client somewhere, and the models and animations, maybe one day i'll try remaking in ue4
>>342265261
koreans shat a lot of these MMOs after ragnarok's success
>>342265518
I did, though not for long.
I remember the personal instances to be pretty tough.
>>342263804
The Public Quests were so cool
I never managed to find a nice Mecha MMORPG, help /v/
My first true grinding experience. Got ganked by a motherfucker who was higher level, grinded for two days so damn hard out of rage.
Met the guy later in the next grinding area, killed him repeatedly until he left. Sadly he didn't even remember me.
>>342265537
>Cabal
My god that game was a fucking grindfest
A really pretty grindfest, but holy shit
>>342265016
until WoW made MMORPGs popular, the community was smaller. 12 years later, the gaming community and the MMO community as a part of it have grown substantially, 100k dont mean shit today.
Anyone played this? I loved it. Tower Defense mod killed this game tho.
I doubt this mmo is forgotten, but still.
I remember trying to raise these fucking pets overnight so I could sell them for cash by jamming a paperclip into my f5 key.
It always dislodged at some point and I always woke up with a dead pet.
RIP
I don't think I've ever seen anyone mention Illutia or whatever it became in these threads.
>>342265778
100k doesn't look impressive on paper anymore but a game can easily keep itself alive with that much if the players and devs aren't both complete shit. I mean just look at EVE, it's been hovering around pretty much the same sized playerbase for like a decade now.
Pretty sure the game is dead as fuck if it's even still going at all.
>>342265428
It's okay anon, you were allowed to have internet relationships back when they were pure and not disgusting ERP.

>RO
>Forgotten
>>342265694
how was it compared to cabal I?
generally developers are clueless about what made their game good, see GunZ and GunZ 2
it wasreally shit but fun with friends, back when I had any
I still do to this day, but soloing takes its toll on you
>>342265948
Shit, I used to play that with my cousins
I still want a City of Heroes private server.
>>342265673
Man, Shaiya had great PvP for the time.
Anyone remember La Tale
Aka Worse Maplestory
>>342265018
It was too much popular in Turkey.Now everyone playing lol and cs go.
>>342266014
I remember when going in with a berserker on arena turned it into rekt central
>>342265889
>>342265829
>>342265789
My niggers.
>>342265948
Oh man, Helbreath.
It wasn't the prettiest nor best developed, but the diablo styled gameplay was good and it had it's own charm. Aresden for life, and only homos play pure mages.
>>342257728
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjIU40UmBNQ
literally the greatest mmo of all time. Nothing is made yet to surpass Anarchy Online
>>342266009
it is complete shit
>>342265829
>we will never have all the 7 planned planets
Shit was the cashest shit everafter RO.
If you didn't play at least 20 MMO's in your teens that are obscure now, you probably shouldn't be posting here
Rising Force Online. Muh chip wars.
>why would he post WoW in a "Forgotten MMORPGs" thread?
4story was the most blatant, most bestest WoW clone ever.

t. me
>>342266323
Oh boy, I remember the time were I was checking out on new trash MMOs on a weekly basis. Glad I had a friend who would try them all out with me, I miss the times.
This game was the shit. I am probably the only one that played it here.

This game took years of my life.

This game has been shut down....probably the largest part of my childhood. Only game I played consistently from 2006 onwards. Starting with the release of the international version with no premium items...the fucking brs...the lag...the hackers...oh god the memories.

I did that same shit too, only alone. But it was fun.
>>342266532
DUDE I REMEMBER BOTS HOLY SHIT
I remember getting boosted to like level 40 or something by some super pro who just ran the hardest mission over and over and I got all the exp.
The pvp was fun too, didn't expect to ever remember this game. Thank you.
>>342266532
Nah nigger I played the fuck out of this. Never cared about PvP but I had a lv70 Surge.
>>342266374
looks nothing remotely close to WoW what the fuck are you talking about
>>342263357
>the sky isn't black anymore
shame
who remembers that game?
found it after looking for a substitute to ROSE online
>>342266506
I kinda miss the initial MMO boom, some of them were fun for a while
Now all the cheap cash-ins are kikestarter indie games and ASSFAGGOTS
>>342266895
lmao
>>342266704
while I loved GunZ that's not an mmorpg you dummy.
Who xenimus here?
>tfw you either play an MMO all the time or you don't play it at all
I mean I play a lot of videogames, but I don't want to play only one videogame all the time.
>Economy based mmo
The beta was so fun, it's a shame they killed it
>>342265252
Bloody hell, didn't expect to see that here. Many great memories.

I was working abroad on a toaster-laptop when I saw the news it had one month left to live.
I never got to say goodbye.
I'm literally the only one here who played this, 100%.
>tfw I would plan my life around the factions that would happen every 8 hours.
>>342266532
Plenty of people played this
I remember that the main way of leveling up was getting one max level player to carry a full party of lowbies through the final level, molten core/motherboard/CPU or whatever it was called.
I'm intrigued to try out EverQuest but I don't know if I should try the Live servers or Project 1999.
>>342265261
Came to post this. Is that private server legit? I remember picking Diva not knowing how OP the HV stat was pre-nerf. Cats were PvP gods
all that fun i had ganking lowbies as a vampire, turning into a bat and invisible
Jesus, we need more isometric MMO'S
>>342267136
This was fun. The end was shit though.
GOAT coming through
>>342267287

MU online
Cabal

GW 1
Vanilla WoW
Vanilla Runescape (2) & Classic

Pretty based list IMO
>>342267365
i never got to experience isometric mmos :c
how do they even work
are there turns being played out or is everything real time
>>342262718
holy fuck i remember playing that in 2007.
Just started college at the time and was super pumped about my brand new radeon x1300 grapichs card. Cost me 240 dollary doos
Vindictus, don't know if it is really forgotten but it was never really big in the west.
>>342267541
Darkeden was a hack n slash MMO, like diablo but with a persistent world
>>342267602
sounds fucking dope
so what diablo pvp/pve in a open server type thing
RIP Chronicles of Spellborn
I will never not miss you
Who /Atlantica/ here? I loved this game so much.
>>342265829
Ok we all know that mmorpgs are garbage in its own way. But this fuckin didn't even have quests. It's so fuckin awful and i wasted huge time on this shit.
>>342267598
I enjoyed playing the big guy and picking up enemies with one hand. Tossing them at walls and traps.
It did get a bit old eventually though. I did love that the beefy dude could enter QTE wars with some bosses.
>>342267332
>tfw no other game has a necromancer like everquest did
lich form and spectre pet was the best.
Graal and Furcadia
>no Sherwood
Am I the only one who played this? I'm sure it's fucking terrible in reality but god damn my naivity made it fun. MaidMarian.com was the shit
>>342263947
Oh god I miss this game now. Before a patch stopped everyone but PKers from dropping items, I used to make bank by running monsters trains on bots as they were grinding.
I'd get enough lizardmen or whatever to instagib one, run it over to the bot and they'd kill him before he was able to force quit. So much brigandine armor that I just sold for less than store prices.
>>342267787
wasent that the turn-base strategy? I remember you could form your army, upgrade each individual character etc etc
>184
>No Kal Online
>>342267927
Skeleton man was best.
Moon game was best-er.
>>342267787
Post made me go re-download this game. This was the shit. Don't know if ill stick with it but I'll at least play it for a bit for some nostalgia.
>>342268086
right here>>342263608
also its BGM is still engraved in my memory, had to mute it
shadowbane
we'll never get a chance to build our own towns in mmos again
I want to go back
>>342266439
thank you for this
i remembered this game about half a year ago but couldn't remember the name at all
>>342267993
Man i want MMOs with PKing back. I remember my guild used to hunt anyone with a brazilian flag as their guild icon.
>>342268135
I remember them first adding the skeleton man in, shit was nuts. At first all there was were different colors of the same model.
>tfw you miss landing on the earth
>>342266818
I doubt it's been forgotten, but I still think it's a fucking awesome game, despite it getting boring really quickly
>>342268086
I read over on OnRPG about a year ago that someone finally hit level cap in that game and it took him about 11 years of continuous play. It was typically some Korean guy, and the only person to ever achieve it.
It's the most grindy MMO in existence afaik.
>>342264084
>Neocron
Holy shit that game was fucking fantastic. It was literally everything I wanted in an MMO but it was dead by the time I got around to playing it. I think I tried it around 2007 after Burning Crusade left me jaded on mainstream MMOs.
It sucks the germans in charge of it never updated and had such sketchy payment methods.
>>342266721
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akd-3VcxhVI
Reminds me of the times when i actually enjoyed MMOs and gaming.
The speaker melting sound of half a hundred support classes buffing people up .
The city squares filled with armies player traders that streched farther than your old pc could render.
The chat that scrolled faster than you could read it.
Dozens of people pvp'ing at every town gate.
Trying to jew people out of their hard earned adena so that you have enough money to buy soul/spirit shots.
Hunting red karma players in hopes of them dropping their most valuable equipped gear.
And then you realize that MMOs are dead and games like this will never come back.
>>342268454
The ORIGINAL moonbase alpha right there, soccer ball, moon buggy and jetpack...
>>342268618
what was gameplay like
>>342267407
My nig. I play this and LOTRO every once and a while
While this wasn't exactly an MMO, it was most possibly one of the most fun RPGs I've ever played.
>>342267005
Eh, seemed to fit the general theme of the thread. Fuck what op asked for.
>>342268475
You know what, I was just going to post this but I thought it was too easy of a joke.
>>342268705
FPS with a skill bar. It was surprisingly smooth for it's time.
>>342268475
Only the OST isn't forgettable
>>342268475
It was fun when it lasted. Fem Paladin was too cute
>>342268423
I'm really sad it's ded as a nail now. I couldn't even find pservers last time I looked.

Came here to post this
Did anyone else play it? Graal online. I was too yound and stupid back then to understand online games bt i played it endlessly
>>342269391
i had a CD with this game, but i was a kid at time and didn't understood
i remember i played the tutorial but then could not play anymore, some shit like that, it was Subscription based?
KoL is basically dead. They've started begging for money in game, they shut down their store, and fired one if the lead writers.
>>342269391
I played Graal lots.
i didn't even have a premium account so my progress never even saved, but I stilled played the everyloving shit out of it.
Not sure what those mobile port buttons are all about though, I played it on PC.
>>342269593
>people unironically droping acronyms without explanation in a obscure old MMO threads
>>342269391
oh god that game was some autistic shit
Does anyone even remember Dragon Nest besides the European server fuckup and the NA server probably closing down soon?
>>342269640
yeah i just googled it. It seems like it's still going strong as a mobile app, scamming kids for their money. Although it isn't even half bad as a mobile game.>mobile games
>>342263357
How is runescape doing these days?
Will a f2p player get anywhere?
>>342267927
I remember playing this shit in so many stages of its life.
The first time I saw this shit and played it you could only just play as black knights and dance and attack win with silly RNG in this small as fuck island.
Then they added these healing shrines and monsters
Then they added weapons in chests at each shrine that just changed your weapon model and they added ability to play as different colored black knights and then eventually they started adding loot and actual dungeons and shit went on and on from there
Dragon Raja
Pangya (golf MMO)
Endless Online
>>342262469
i used to play this.
>>342257728
Anyone Graal?
>>342269952
I played the beta for a bit, but I figured it would go to shit because
>Nexon
>>342269974
Old School Runescape is great and you can buy membership in the form of Bonds with in game GP from other players. It's a few million GP, though.
>>342270065
nigga look >>342269391
QuizQuiz . Used to play an english version of this back in the day with some friends from High school. We would freak out cause one of my friends put a lot of time into it and had all the cool shirts to wear and shit. Was a good time
Post forgotten MMOs you still play
>tfw digimon fanboy so I loved this game despite all it's flaws.
>>342263804
You guys should try the new private server. Its pretty dope, t4 works and the gear cap is at rr40 so its at a sweet spot for balance.
https://www.returnofreckoning.com/
>>342257728
It was awful but it was great at the same time.
>>342270480
I've never played this MMO before, i know it closed early, isn't just another WoW Clone?
it was so shit, but it's the most fun I've had in any MMORPG ever. Probably helped that I had a friend to play it with though.
Qq still remember
>>342270736
I has some similarity to WoW, but ultimately its mimics DaoC because of its PvP focus.
I remember it being shit but I played it quite a bit.
>>342269952
so much money wasted on those fucking rng eggs right before some xmas event where they literally gave wings away. Got so mad I quit and never looked back. Fuck nexon.
The first mmo I played once I figured out there was more then Runescape. It amazed me how big the planets were in this game. ToR was a huge downgrade for anyone who played this and it seem that game is almost dead now.
>>342270827
it was great, a shame the international version was so late on the content compared to the jp version
Good times were had.
>>342270827
Imagine's a pretty good game in general with friends. Hopefully the private server goes live soon.
>>342266964

Fuck that game. There's a good reason it bombed on release. At least the Imperial Agent line was good though.
>>342257728
I loved this game back in the way back
>>342270867
It's a shame the game turned into p2w more and more with each patch in the official servers, Joymax can go fuck themselves.
Also the game is barely staying alive in pservers nowadays.
This is sadly one of the few screenshots I have left, I wish it had a better angle to show off my battlebard buddy.

Not only did I play conquer, I played its retarded brother.

I have other qualms about it which is why I stopped playing. I did have fun though with 2 buddies killing people in the open-pvp areas like Tatooine or Alderaan
>>342271268
You know theres a emulator of it now if you would still like to play, its pretty populated actually.
Are these games just not profitable anymore? I don't seem to see or hear about as many shitty games like these as I used tokind of sad because I grew up with these kinds of games on my parents computer because we couldn't afford to buy me any real games

Has a sequel ever been worse than GunZ 2? It has none of the charm of the first and is so much slower it feels like a different game. When I mastered K-style in the first I felt like a fucking god and it was fun as shit to play. Then the second came and just fucking ruined it.
>>342257728
I don't remember the name of it, Runes of something. But it had a rather awesome multiclass system. Not only could you combo any class together, but each class got several unique spells from doing so.
Other than that it was a kind of generic WoW clone.

>Felt interested in the game because of the Dragonkin race
>$75 for said race and a bunch of stupid shit>tfw you bought the race for $30
I think that game killed the market tactic in selling anthro races to customers.

Pretty much how it went, even with all but one of my friends I tried to get into this game. He never got on my level but he was still decent, and fun to play against/ 2v2 with.

Does anyone know what the name of that mmorpg where everyone was a school student, and faction wars was just school wars, and there was a brawler class where you combo punches and kicks.
this shit
FFXI - 5 years of my life, senpai. 2003-2008.
I'll never experience anything like it again, I reckon. I made friendships in this game with people that are still in my life today.
Together, we got to sky. Together we killed all four Gods and took on the mighty Kirin.
Together we took down the Shadowlord.
God. I miss it all so much. I long for an experience like this again.
>>342273274
By giving the players the freedom of movement K-style gave them in the original.
The result of GunZ 2 is probably what happened when they tried to dumb down K-style for a wider audience. Not many would be willing to improve after getting 2shotted by a flying ninja shooting buckshots out of his ass.
>>342273143
I'm not as good as I used to be, but I'd be willing to join a pserver. Perhaps we could make a group and join whenever the new HeroGamers pserver comes.

I only enjoyed it for a year or two because I got invited to a guild early on and we stuck together for a while.
Can't say guilds in mmo feel as comfy nowadays.

what a thread...
It was advertised as the "Next Eve Online"
They were completely different games, so hell knows why they went with that. It was an atrocious grind to do anything and the balancing was way off for a long time but dam the pvp was a lot of fun.
>>342274259

I have no fucking idea why they advertised it as EVE. It's MMO Freespace.
>>342270736
It was actually pretty cool. There were open-world PvP objectives at every level that ranged from simple outposts to capture in low-level zones to massive, multi-stage siege warfare in high-level zones. It all contributed to bonuses for your faction.
It also pioneered concepts like public quests, which Guild Wars 2 later butchered, and just generally nailed traditional MMO combat. They managed to design tanks in a way that didn't revolve around aggro so they could actually contribute in PvP, and no one had auto-attack.
tl;dr: It was a pretty cool game that had some problems, notably the fact that it was released before 100% of the content was complete and it didn't stand out enough from WoW.

7 different games, yet they are all copies of lineage 2.
Shitty f2p cash shop copies at that.
Why would anyone play this dime a dozen trash instead of lineage 2?
A lot of people say wow ruined mmos, but that's wrong.
All the f2p lineage 2 copies were what ruined the market.
Can't even remember when I played this one
this one
I did play it.
>>342274314
One of those was already mentioned, you could try reading instead of ctrl+f'ing next time.
>>342274952
Because back in the day Lineage 2 was f2p and not everyone was bothered to pay for mmos before WoW
I need a mmorpg that looks and plays like pre-2010 mmos that has a decent amount of people playing.
>>342275052

>>342275192
>back in the day
I see summer has come.
Lineage 2 has been subcription based for many years, while that f2p shit sprouted like weeds. Only after it wasn't profitable any more it went f2p, because all the retards would rather play the same game for 'free' with even more grinding.
It's a joke though since f2p always means you either end up paying more or get less out of it.

I was a moderator on HuxleyGame.com's forum.
Guyver was the user name.
Eventually a korean guy saw how bad I wanted to play it and hooked me up with an actual account.
Apparently in order to make an account you needed to use your social security number and he used his mother's to make my account. Total bro, he even helped translate somethings.
I didn't know Korean, but I was still able to log in and play because things were pretty simple.
A better gun, stats would go green indicating it was better. Great, that's all I needed. Same with armor.
It ran incredibly smooth. The Unreal engine was really being optimized for that game. Imagine an Unreal Tournament MMO, but with singleplayer/instance maps for campaigns and missions.
I couldn't do any actual PVP for some reason though, I think it was locked.
The cancer that isijji gamesbought out Huxley and tried to incorporate their own things like the cash shops and shit, but could never get it out of their own testing phase because they suck in every way.
So, Huxley died a very cruel death. Damn shame, the times I did play it, I was hooked.
All of the boss fights were usually a hard as fuck Unreal Tournament AI bot, but his gun had a special ability or something.

the game still has players too, albeit all of them are brazilians who've spent upwards of 5,000 shekels for op premmie items. All three of them.
This was the first attempt at a RO successor.
>>342275970
Man, that sounds great. Wish it had a different fate.
>>342275052
I remember ijji was retarded as fuck when they were hosting the closed beta, someone wrote a plugin that basically tricked their server into thinking your account could play.
I was so hype, and so let down. It was a cool concept, played pretty well from what I recall, the pvp was similar to quake in some ways.
Wish it didn't ghost

>>342264775
That combat system was ahead of its time. Yet the game was still total shit. I remember half of the classes being fucking useless and crafting being more or less rng based. Good times

Can't exploit the market because there are literally per-item daily transaction limits on top of per-item trade volume limits and delay between trade, combined with limited trade slots.

I even made this YEARS ago for Huxley. It got some good laughs.

And thats how i lost one of my favorite friend groups. We all still have each other added on facebook but none of really talk to each other. Last I checked, the one I got into an argument doesnt have any of us added. she most likely forgot about us and moved on.
To end on a good note, I was friends with this one online couple on here. I looked them up the other day, and they finally met each other in real life, and are dating. Good for them.

>>342275052
This was the precursor to Destiny and The Division (much more fun too (actually it was probably Hellgate: London (also more fun than either of those games))).
It was like if UT and PSO had a baby and shat out Huxley.
2Moons/Dekaron.
Possibly the best action MMORPG ever made. Had the most interesting PK and PvP ever. Too bad it was a grind fest and hard to make gear.

There are many, but it's not nearly as good. Bots and macros are widespread and everyone boasts about PvP skills while using macros to do just about everything in the game.

red99 is dead as fuck. Empire left after they awoke the sleeper. There used to be around 700ish online regularly which isn't much in the private server realm but it's about all you hope for on eq pvp server. Now you're lucky to see 100 online. Goddamn shame.

How not? Most groups in mmos are of 4 people. Groups in vindictus are 4. Raids are 8. Vindictus is 8. Vindictus even has 24? person raids.

The same. MMORPGs are dead, and we will never have the same feeling of playing them in the early days before wikis and incessant power-gaming. It was something very specific to the time and to that stage of internet/game development. This will never again be replicated in the future.
>>342280089
I remember the first time I ever logged into that game I made a character that looked like aHazesoldier. No super powers. Someone ran up to me and asked if I was new and I told them it was my first time playing and they gave me a shit ton of credits, not 5 minutes after someone was announcing a costume contest. And I stood in line because wtf. I guess he liked the whole regular soldier guy trying to compete with super hero bio story I typed up and I was one of the 3 winners in that and got even more credits. Within that same day ANOTHER dude gave me credits.
Awesome community. Simply amazing.
Too many MMO's miss the community portion. They think that raids and a friends list is enough.
It isn't.I didn't even play Haze
>>342276668
GE ruined the game for me, It made trading faster and easier for everyone but it meant you couldn't just scoop up good deals and meet people and shit in banks anymore.

Shadowbane had the fucking best sieges.
Darkfall is in various states of dead but the sieges of the original(which I think they're rebooting) was like Shadowbane's except with FPS combat, was sooo good dispite the rest of the games flaws. The biggest flaw was that my friends all hated it and made fun of it and so I had to play alone or w/ a guild full of people who i didnt care about
>>342280585
Can't argue with you about the mmorpgs being dead part, people are simply too connected for there to be any real novelty in online social interaction in a game anymore.
However, I definitely think that when I'm an old ass Instead of the bittersweet pangs of days of gone I will feel nothing but regret for the time I spent shit posting my life away.
That's what I meant.

My friend gave me shop items to boost me. I made a character around the crit bonus those items gave me. I had around 50% crit at lvl20 iirc.
P2W shops are cancer.
This game was awesome but I couldn't run it properly on some stages. And then it died incredibly fast.

Always wanted to play it back in the day, but I was poor and my computer couldn't run it well.
>>342265789

Audition Redbana.
I would always hang around this all female group everyday after school. There was something about this game that for some reason brought so much drama everywhere.
>>342276439
it was a third/first person diablolike mmo

My first (mmo)rpg

That game wasfun.
>>342270658
Is that GRAAL? Fuck. I was gonna post about that, Well of Souls, and BYOND, though they were all more like smaller single servers though the programs as a whole had big awesome playerbases back in the early 2000s. I really REALLY miss comfy games like that.
As for actual MMOs... probably Nexus TK most of all, and Warhammer Online.

cestus karok is fun as fuck. it makes me feel like jojo or kenshiro
>>342266704
Still one of the only games where the gap in skill between newbie and pro was so enormous that while newbies would walk around and sometimes dodge or wallrun, a pro was literally flying and moving and attacking so fast you couldn't keep up with him.
>>342280894
I left a lot behind, but I doubt anyone remembers me anyway.
>>342267407
Being able to grab onto ledges were fucking amazing, blew my fucking mind
I dont understand why more mmorpgs arent implementing it
>>342282419
There were also macros, and 3rd party programs that let you do stupid shit in that game that completely broke it.

Those rooms were the shit
>>342282572
It was fun being accused of macroing by shitters back in the day.
I just bound my block to q and it became infinitely easier to butterfly, and I also sped up a lot.
this game was so fun

Don't remember his name, but he was a female dark elf in lineage 2. I was a female dwarf. We went everywhere together and his guild. They even gave me gifts for my birthday. Good times. I hope he's ok.

It was still fun though. shame it died.tfw im learning french now. I'd probably be a bit more fluent in french if the french version was still going
>>342283317
it was gpotato's best published game
I remember playing a f2p mmo years ago for a bit. I can't remember its name, and I didn't play it enough to really experience much of the game, but I do remember really enjoying what I did play. It was a fantasy game, but all the races/classes were some kind of vampire or similar creature. I seem to remember the combat also had quiet a few blood spraying everywhere effects, at least compared to most mmos.
I played quite a bit of this in early 2000s.

Old Graal Classic server was my favourite, before they removed everything for no reason. Managed to play everything to the newest content. Had a horrible lag but it was still neat
>>342282794
I could bfly when my friends couldn't. But the day I found a room full of people literally taking no damage while holding the melee stun charge while blfying at the speed of light, is the same day I quit.
2d Space mmos are something i wish would make a comeback.

Loved the shit out of this game. Fine choice sir.
>>342283790
I only ever played Mercenaries of Astonia since it was free. I was poor. Great game
>>342283954
>>342283984
Nah it wasn't isometric. It was a behind the character camera. It was your basic Everquest/WoW like game, just vampires and darkness everywhere.
>>342284225
Sounds more like hacks, desu
all I ever found as far as macros went were simple bf/ss/rhs scripts. Nothing crazy like what you're describing, then again I could do it all on my own so I never really looked that hard.
Some of the hacks that plagued the game later on were terminal cancer.

Most people in the game spend money for there gear and it turned into shit
No one ever posts one of those:
- Meridian 59
- Whispers in Akarra
- EUO
Proper superhero mmo when?
>>342284823
When one of the shitty crowdfunded CoH successors makes it into an actual game maybe.
>>342284698

I was having so much fun. Couldn't convince anyone else to spend the money to unlock the rest of the sidequests though, so I dropped it too.

Will MMORPGs ever be popular again or has that age come and gone for good?
