      @@nointro Not gonna speak much about wow and ff then because you already played them. FF14 has a special place for me but I get it, it's a very story focused game and gameplay is mostly focused on boss encounters later on.
      Now about gw2 I'll try to keep it short and write about main points;
      - There are many ways to get bis items, not just raids or mythic dungeons. Achivements, Open world dynamic events, mythic dungeons (fractals), different map currency vendors, crafting, raids, pvp, open world pvp (which is set in another continent basically (wvw pvp))
      - Jumping puzzles can be insane, because the terrain can be much more complex and detailed compared to other mmos.
      - Mounts (imagine dragonriding but, there are different type of mounts that have different movement abilities and speed that can help you traverse the world, do quests, find hidden stuff etc. )
      - Achivement system is very deep and complicated and directly can contribute as gold or items depending on which ones. imagine trading post x 1000 in WoW. It's deeply tied with legendary crafting too.
      - Combat feels GOOD, with mixture of dodge mechanics and tab targeting.
      - The world feels alive full of people, wherever you go, even in old maps. Unlike Azeroth.
      - No subscription (although I find myself spending more on unnecessary cosmetics now)
      - Every activity you do is rewarding in some way, you don't feel like you've wasted your time. (unlike dailies in wow)
      - Horizontal progression has become my favorite system. Your items will not get invalidated by another patch or expansion. And gearing full bis set is NOT casual at all :)
      If you do decide to try it, just imagine the free base game is a tutorial and the real endgame starts with the expansions. There is a quality leap between the base game and expansions imo. Hope that helps.

    Big aspect a lot of mmos do bad is not letting the world grow with you. Often you speed run each zone. This gets more apparent the longer a mmo is out. One thing that makes older mmos great is how much time you spent in each zone and growing with the map actually understanding it and appreciating it.

    I just want to play an MMO that is as good as ArcheAge was in Alpha-3.0
    ArcheAge was hands down the BEST MMO ever created up to this point. There’s a reason why it inspired Steven to make Ashes of Creation. It’s PVP 10/10, Naval System 10/10, World Bosses 10/10, Trade Pack system 10/10, Interesting Class System 10/10, Guilds being such a huge fun social part of the game 10/10, Gliders 😎 10/10.
    ArcheAge literally would have been the next WoW if it wasn’t for Trion’s shitty management and monetization of the game.

    A subscription does give you more advantages and some convenience, may be considered P2W, but is kinda limited in a way that you get only a certain amount of "convenience" or P2W material in a month/week/year.
    A true P2W system lets you keep shoving money into the game in return for more and more things, in a way that if you had infinite money you could go get everything in the game right here and now.

    The best combat system I've ever experienced was in Wildstar. For me what ruins the fun in other MMOs is animation lock, global cooldowns, tab targeting, lack of telegraphing (and missing your target), base miss %, and over-reliance on UI elements (or addons) to maximize DPS.

    • @IRMentat
      @IRMentat Год назад

      nice telegraphs TERRIBLE white-damage in that the effects would literally chase you around until they hit you. an anemy would litterally swing a sword and if you dodged away before the animation completed a white "spark" would chase you around like a damned cartoon projectile until it landed the damage.
      plus it only had 8 abilities so the combat felt so damned tedious once you found your preferred spec, i had similar issues with guild wars for the same reason as that was another 8-button game (ok 1, heal, dodge, 5 weapon 3 misc-class-spells 1 ult)

    • @UtubeUser-xm9ty
      @UtubeUser-xm9ty Год назад

      Then you should try playing dcuo it has the best combat system I've ever played. You can do what the games player base calls clipping. Which is essentially clipping the animations short for increased dps. Just as a sample look-up, gadgets might dps dcuo on youtube to sample the combat. You can also clip in support roles for faster healing or to negate more dmg as a tank. Certain powers can be clipped by other powers (you have to figure out what works for each powerset), trinkets clip also, or by using your weapon and clipping the weapons animation with powers. Each powerset works differently, so you need to figure out what works when it comes to dpses that use their powers, but for weapon dpses, there's a clear cut meta, which is kind of copy and paste which everyone uses. It has very good combat mechanics where you have to block certain attacks to survive, but be careful cause if you try to block the wrong type of attack, you can be block broken. You also have attacks you must dodge by rolling away. It's an old game that is supposed to be getting a graphical overhaul, but the combat keeps people coming back even to this day. Check it out. Tell me what you think.

      as GW2 and Genshin player... I feel the haters make him stay away even if for some reason want to try, his regular viewers will cry out, I feel if he ever want to try them, he need to do it offline. (also to avoid stream-photobombing)

    the gathering or mob farming for asian MMOs are the heart of it. That's why Ragnarok was so successful back in the day and until now people are still playing it. the gathering helps you with the grind and the difficulty of some mobs kind of "forced" you to rely on other players, therefore, making you socialize and interact with other people. that's why i didn't like some newer MMOs because you can just solo everything and everything gets to feel like a routine in some instances.
    the downside of this is that in social communities, cliques are bound to be formed, it could be through guilds or permanent parties, and as a solo player, this can be a bit hard. especially when the guilds "require" you to be online almost 24/7, it's so annoying when i see guilds like that and they kick you for being inactive for just a few days.
    i just hope that the progression and equipment farming won't have a big wall between old and new players. BDO is great, but this big wall of playtime is such a big problem for newer players. regardless of how much you pay or farm, older players will always have the edge and it's so hard to catch up especially when, like BDO, everything gets so dull (to me at least) after a long time. the guild wars are fun and it gives life to the game, but again, so much guilds kick you out after just a few days of you being offline.
    i hope they implement a great pvp system just like how Ragnarok did it. they had solo pvp, royal rumbles, and the top player is always displayed in the website. BDO didn't have that much great pvp events and my old guild before we disbanded, we held pvp events in our guild a lot.

      @@JathraDH "outside of FFXIV"... I drifted away from FFXIV in part because of the gear treadmill. The tombstone system is a slightly less rigid daily task checklist on top of a weekly time gate... Near the end it felt little different to me than earning summons in a gotcha game. The daily tombstone bonuses should just be the normal rewards, it's already weekly capped anyway, don't make it a daily task... Yeah sure you could technically grind it out in one day as is, but a lot more time than doing the daily bonuses.
      Before I stopped playing I was largely just buying gear off the MB even though it wasn't best in slot or even max ilvl and accidentally getting tombstones whenever I ran dungeons with friends rather than trying to cap them each week. If I get back into it again I'll probably try and finish leveling my crafter jobs and make my own gear rather than grinding tombstones. Seems potentially more satisfy than running 1 of 2 dungeons at random each day, every day just to tick off a daily bonus checkbox, and I could sell stuff or make stuff for friends, vs the tombstones grind being purely your own gear that can't be sold or benefit your friends.

    I personally like how Genshin manages to be f2p while making $4 billion usd annually via making the gacha characters so attractive that people would just pull for them even if the game only requires you 4 characters fully built to progress through the game (also 100% all the hardest content), since majority of the players love collecting characters regardless of whether they needed them for anything or not since B tier characters in the meta tier list is enough to beat the game; Genshin's an easy casual game where your 5* gear/artifact sets carry you more than owning a 5 unit.
    BP has that progression paywall, players can progress exponentially faster than the rest of f2p because they can unlock advanced quest earlier than them, so it's definitely going to be p2w even if the devs expected it to be f2p.

I don't care that it's "cosmetic", in MMO's the entire point is earning your gear and having said gear shows what you've accomplished and/or your time spent in the game, etc. It's also important in PVP to be able to understand/spot what gear or level another player is at from a distance. All of these mechanics add up to an important social system that indirectly and directly changes how the player interacts with others and the world. This is why I do NOT like transmog systems either, it takes away from all of those important elements.
