Is it bad i heard the ending credits song before i watched this show?
the art in this video is very cute, even the evolving monster of an mmorpg ^o^
I’m actually really excited for FireFall. It’s going to be so fun.
And I finally have a laptop that can play it. ^___^ FireFall, for those who don’t know, is a MMOF(T)PS. It looks amazing.
Planetside is already an MMOFPS
Would you guys consider MAG a MMOFPS?
Rofk loser play games like these. Reel men gets laid all every day.
W.O.W isn’t gunna run out any time soon and they are creating a new expansion which will bring in even more popularity and it is still growing in size with its easily accessible trails that will most likely get u addicted within the first hour.
Balys out…
@balys101 pandaria is the last expansion, they are not continuing WoW after said expansion.
during this expansion aswell they have the weakest game they have had EVER. and hell i love wow but after cata they r losing a ton of people, i think it will gain people but after they get max lvl and such blizzard wont catch up like they did with cata and lose alot of people same way till it ends with a falling out of the new blizzard-activision making well over like 30b – hell 70b after 10yrs
@nmirrored short answer no long answer NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
SWOTR very well made very unbalanced but story driven very well.
people who hell hate the star wars universe u would be surprised what happens when sum1
– bioware -
with actual good talent at making good storys unlike that bastrd who fell ass first into a massive movie career, the story is well driven even with a set story world.
while still having sum of the original MMO bugs such as
social
bugs
balance
they are doin a so far good job.
i dont like starwars but i am ganna pk up after playing
guild wars 2 is ganna be incredible too!!!
@RifleTwoOne Planetside 2 is coming out soon
@0justarandomguy0
Because the very first video he did was for a class presentation and he only had ten minutes for it, so he sped up his voice. Now it’s just a normal thing.
@SirZidane
Why instead? Why not here, since this is where he Dan originally posted his videos, on his YouTube account, when he was doing them alone.
love the way you think as in that you do at all. I got a lot of ideas for the future what I would like to see, but I don’t think it would sell so I don’t see most my dreams coming about.
I swear to god, these GW2 fanboys make me sick. They fucking insult every MMO out there while praising GW2 as some kind of miracle, and the rest of us can’t shut them up with a reply because Guild War 2 isn’t even out yet. I’m getting this weird urge to want GW2 to fail terribly…
Minecraft is one
The game to give WoW a run for its money? TERA.
The future of MMORPGS? Guild Wars 2.
Difference being, Guild Wars 2 breaks the mold, re-imagining what it means to be a vast, open world, fantasy MMORPG.
TERA will also be successful, but at the end of the day it’s just WoW 2.0
@slipknotjake Clearly you haven’t even looked into GW2 then.
…and we have what, a giant wave of action MMORPGs coming from Korea in the next year. TERA, Guild Wars 2, Continent of the Ninth, RaiderZ, ArcheAge… maybe even Blade & Soul.
Hopefully, their success will usher in more investor confidence. Not everything has to be stand-to-cast DPS-HPS systems based on largely what you built and how lucky you were to get what you needed.
@HcOtaku1337 Explain how Tera is a WoW 2.0? I am quite interested in your response being that Tera is a Korean based game and it does not use a hot key based structure such as WoW. –l|l|l|
I don’t know when this episode was first made, but it was fairly spot on with the future of MMOs, what with all the f2p stuff.
wasn’t this video done like 2 years ago?
