I can't see Ashes being anything but a niche game to be honest, even if they can actually release in the next couple of years and deliver on the lofty promises they keep making. I hope it is good and will certainly try it but I've seen so many mmo messiahs come and go. Better to just stick to your vision and hope people come along for the ride, then spread the word gradually.
Nice 🙂
So people still think WOW is the king?
Thanks
Hmmm, i dunno. Im almost 40 but in the glory days of mmos (pre wow) gaming as a whole waa niche and nerdy. Mmos need to be made by people that want to make an mmo lol. D&D needs a DM that wants to play D&D 😛 anyone 26 and under likely hasnt even seen an mmo like SWG. Kids today might as well be kids from 1920. Both with no concept of what mmos were lol
Generally I don’t comment that much on these videos. However, I’m tired of hearing about any new game being a WoW Killer. It’s stupid to me at this point. Do we call new companies in an industry company X killer? Nope! People want good games that can compete and offer something different as an option to play that’s viable option to other games they play. There will be no WoW Killer. Just new release games that ever so slowly move the bar forward in different areas or being different. The market will shift slowly.
everyone wants to be part of the cool kids 🙂 I know, gameplaywise I think I am more part of the minority .. pve endcontent player in each mmo.. I think about quitting eso atm because there are not much endcontent players left.. most of them don´t even know about the hard raid achievements… so for me there is no fun anymore to do them because most of the players won´t notice, that I am part of the "cool" ones 😛 Thats why I look for a new mmo atm, gw2 is fun too, but seems to be really casual at the end too. But for me personally I don´t care if wow is dead or gets "killed" or not, I don´t think its the king anymore, because there are so many mmos out there and some of them have more players, other less, but wow isn´t the only one anymore and lost a lot of players the last years too.. for me it´s not important if a new mmo kills wow, it´s important if it´s not bugged af, there are enough players for hard pve content, no massive p2w and it´s fun to play and explore outside of raids or dungeons.. but I had a lot of fun in wow years ago doing the hard mythic raids, had lots of fun in eso doing all the tripples and have fun in gw2 atm just exploring the world and waiting for some new games coming up.. but maybe I am too old for the "my game is better than yours- thing"^^ (thanks for quoting me 😛 feeling a little bit famous now 😂😂😂)
The killer of WoW is Blizzard. They do enough to kill their own game
I think there are 3 types of YouTube comments: the sycophantic slurping sounds, the irrational hate threads and the rarest type is the reasonable criticism and contrary opinions.
Thanks Jack 🙂
Let's be completely honest.. Being around since "WoW-killer" has been a phrase none of the MMOs that people used the phrase on never even came close. As Shakizmo stated below the only thing that will kill WoW will be Blizzard themselves. Even with this latest expac and their "return to their roots" thing going on it looks like numbers are still going down.
The only game I think that will even make a dent in whatever population is in WoW "might" be the Riot MMO and I think in the end more likely will be that they will pull players from all the games that are based on that IP and not really from the population of WoW. We may not like what WoW (I don't know how much time I've put into WoW but I quit a couple of expacs ago and don't see myself going back) is but from what I have seen they have a solid following in their raid content.
As to the other games.. Stephen has pretty much been dead set on Ashes being a niche game. The whole "not for everyone" and only having that ruleset means they may run for awhile but it probably won't be a "huge" game. Don't get me wrong I love everything I hear about what they are doing in Ashes.. I'm just pretty sure I'm one of the "not for everyone" people.
As to other games MMOs coming out..
TnL might pull in a million or so people that will give it a chance.. But we'll have to see how retention is.. As you and I have talked about there are so many details that we're still waiting on from "official" sources and we have videos with various content creators that have different details (like always on PvP vs the event based PvP like they've stated recently are still being put out; or UR4 vs UR5).
Pax Dei is another one.. A "fantasy setting version of Eve" I've heard it mentioned as with player economy and then regions similar to how they do them in Eve.. We'll see. Plus we have no idea where they are in development. Looks and sounds good though.
Other games.. Wayfinder looks interesting but I think it will be another niche type game. Palia same thing though it may pull in more of the casual community based players. Archeage 2 I'm assuming as niche as the original.
As to "the event" you alluded to.. I don't think we're there yet.. but I think each one of the games above are taking bigger steps in moving the genre forward than anyone has in a long time.
I'm about to make a great point right here….your videos I feel have way more authenticity to them then Asmon. Keep it real.
The next revolution is when you can do stuff like get a rare drop that's worth $1k USD and you're able to sell it and deposit that money into your irl bank account in like a minute.
I’ll say Ginger that I watch your videos first, then they’re video second because I hate when people are pausing the video and talking over it when I want to know what is being said.
We dont want wow killer , wow was never good why would i want a wow killer 😭🤣 i need a blend of pve pvp , with pvp focused end game so u keep interested in the game and the grind. Aoc and TL is the next mmos for me for the next decade hopefully
