I wonder if this is because of the fact that most people are running like 5 boxed characters on essentially free-to-play subscriptions?

You gotta lack a lot of intelligence to believe this shit, so I appreciate the sarcasm? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
I can see the whole of Daybreak having a decent amount of subs though, given they have a ton of IPs. But ya.. Still no where near what Live WoW gets all by itself. FF15 has a decent amount but I don't know of any MMORPG that is doing "good", other than FF15, Maybe BDO is doing well.. Content creators are just that, creators of make belief content. The asmon types who just constantly live in this narrative are comedic at best. Always sipping on a coke or a pepsi, talking about shit they will never understand properly.. Only 1 or 2 layers in, judging developer decisions.. Always funny how serious they are but they can always say they were trolling or doing it for content. Id love for one of these guys to actually jump on Unreal Engine, and actually stick with it for more than a week (this is a joke, they never could..) all cynical gamers are a joke. You will notice they fawn over E3 games because they are oblivious and ignorant, not saying they are bad but they are consumers, they don't get to contribute to development outside their basic opinions on what they would consume. My favorite are these content creators who make a living off calling all developers scam artists, any kick starter they see that isn't good is a scam.. Because they have no work ethic and have never developed anything in their lives, so they do not understand 1% of the struggle, they are a mass of bloated ignorance at this point. Look at Notch etc etc.. They gave up, consumers of games are perfectly ignorant idiots 9.8 times out of 10, fortunately/unfortunately.. | ||

Reminds me of my real-life friend who is always "shocked" at how sophisticated and advanced EverQuest is.. it's like in his mind he thinks that because it's an older game then it must be more simple than WoW and other modern MMOs. What he doesn't understand is that they actually dumbed WoW down to make it more user friendly, and that despite being "more modern" that it is actually way less complex. Also the weird thing about people complaining about the graphics on EverQuest... I agree the graphics are bad when you look at the game, but when you play the game it has a way of sucking you into the game. I don't know how they do this, but I assume it has something to do with the camera angle and how dangerous and disorienting the environment is. When I play EverQuest I get completely sucked in, the world around me doesn't even exist. When I play WoW I never feel like I'm in the game or that the world matters. Not even with classic WoW. Where you just run passed dozens of mobs without a care in the world. If you did that in EverQuest you would either die or end up with the most insane train ever. | |||

For instance something like Fortnight, where you are rewarded just for logging in an playing, finishing dailies etc.. This was all thanks to World of Warcraft more than Fortnight, even though people will blame Fortnight and things like Call of Duty, it was WoW that originally tried this dopamine drip kind of content. I find it really sad that my nephews won't really understand what it was like playing something like Neverwinter Nights or Ultima or Might and Magic because they simply can't find satisfaction from just playing the game, enjoying the story, completing the game. But ya, today you will be told you are being "nostalgic" by saying anything positive about a game like Everquest let alone Dark age of Camelot, Ultima Online.. Meridian 59.. The vast majority of people have no idea what a good game is, they just know how to have their nervous system completely manipulated and abused.. But ya, a lot of people don't read books today either [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | |||
