Few developers are attempting ambitious MMOs now days sadly.
- dathinab 7y agoNot really surprising given how much a MMO cost. (High Engine+Infrastructure Dev Costs, High Content Dev Cost, Cost for frequent new content and other cost to keep people playing, much competition even against "old" games like WoW, etc.) So I'm not really surprised if companies opt for CoOp and non-massive multi player concepts over MMOs and if they have a still working MMO prefer to maintain (milk) it over any new development.
- freehunter 7y agoFew developers ever made ambitious MMOs. A lot of developers made big-budget WoW clones which failed because the market doesn’t want WoW clones. Very few MMO developers have tried something new beyond “quest, grind, loot, repeat”.
