Thread 513110773

I recently started on a Lineage 2 server called L2Elegant purely for the nostalgia, and because modern games are shit. Even though the server is fairly populated, 90% of the players are in their 30s. Same shit in other mmos, like WoW. Why don't zoomers play MMOs?

Zoomer here. Why hasn’t Trump released the Epstein list? That seems more important than why I need to play a dead game genre in 2025 due to greed, no good games, and lack of passion with some meme flag Israel shill

>mmos are time vampires.

catapult me straight to endgame
I fucking hate griding for hours to get materials to upgrade a piece of gear only to lose it due to RNGesus saying "No!"

Checked and rekt. Op is a pedophile.

You have to play on a private server thats either empty or has 500x exp so you can farm skeletons around giran till level 50 or whatever
This was the state of lineage 2 in 2009 till now lol
The main game is a fucking phone app dogshit no gear progression lets do the skins and korean echanting dogshit the entire time
So much potential in games like black desert even all down the shitter
You have low iq retards salivating over dogshit like ashes of never coming out scam that looks like shit and plays like shit
I mean eso is there compare how they look side by side why is ashes so fucking ugly

Fuck israel
Free palestine

At least FF14, for all its faults, is about the story and not the endgame. The game has a lot of flaws, but I respect it for not being an exploitative resource grindathon as the 'real game'. The real game is reading 240 hours of story and then getting the payoff for it with some hype shit and then you log off.
Pre-Dawntrail, at any rate. Now its just about being disappointed and hoping the next expansion is better.

MMORPG=live on a tranny discord or play solo, no game is worth that

Interacting with people in a shared online setting isn't novel anymore now that everyone and their dog uses social media.

no good mmorpgs have been released in like 15 years or something. everything that is released now (including expansions) is such censored slop too scared to hurt any ones feelings that no one can enjoy it except the most braindead of retarded niggers (women)

>240 hours of story
I loved games like this.
I remember spending 3 hours or close to it in the intro part to Star Ocean.
I loved the FF series.
One of the most amazing parts was showing it to other people.
That time when my sister got to the time travel scene in FF8 on disc 4 was pretty cool.
My younger brother introduced me to Kingdom Hearts, which I was resistant towards playing but it's one of the better games I've played.

An even better question, why did Mike Johnson shut down congress to prevent a vote on releasing the Epstein list? Democrats seem unafraid to release it so why are Republicans so afraid?

>>513110773 (OP)
the zoomer fears horizontal progression

>>513113429
>releasing the Epstein list
fuck the list
Everybody is so focused on this.
They're like dogs chasing a car.
What are they gonna do when they get it?
My guess is absolutely nothing.
They could have video of Donald Trump opening a 6 year old's skull, scooping out and discarding his brains, then enjoying an ice cold diet coke from it.
They won't do shit.

>>513114058
The only reason anyone is so interested in it is because Republicans are so desperate for it not to be released. If Pam Bondi hadn't played it up so much a month ago, nobody would care. And yes, the list undoubtedly has Trump as a client of Epstein's trafficking business.

all chat in many other games is much more fun
I regret every dollar I gave to MMOs scamming me to get in, there's nothing interesting about any of them except eve, I'd rather waste hours in consumable games learning to tech rather than trying to grasp onto virtual shit

>>513110773 (OP)
They all have ADHD. They want instant gratification and can't grind for things.

Actually you are a brain damaged slave.

what do you think vidya is about?
you trying to turn vidya into a fucking job?

modern mmos have lost the plot about what made the games fun in the first place. back in the day you'd willingly let yourself be addicted to these games even though they took a long time to play but they were pretty fun from beginning to end, you always felt like you were making some kind of progress and you could watch yourself get better and better at the game. plus you'd make friends along the way who had similar goals in the game. even as a noob.

All the popular MMOs nowadays suck because you complete all the content in the latest expansion and get the Best-In-Slot gear, then it's like there's nothing to do but wait for the next expansion to do it all over again.
Everything is so streamlined and catered to the retards. There's vast beautiful open areas of the games that are devoid of any players because people just teleport to their destination or fly on their flying mounts straight to their destination.
Your life in the game basically means nothing because if you die, you're only mildly inconvenienced and simply have to run back to where you died and try again. HP and mana mean nothing because when combat ends, you're automatically restored to full HP and mana after 1 second.
All the dungeons and raids are instanced, so you don't run into other players doing the same content. Party finders suck because it ruins the immersion and social connections and bonding, it makes it so impersonal and disconnected, when MMOs are supposed to be social games.
Auction houses also ruin the social aspect of the game, it used to be fun finding someone who had the item you needed and bartering with them.
Combat is shit because it's just one or two tanks and everyone pumping out their damage spells while healers stay back and heal and you can't even see what's going on or who's casting what. They need to slow the combat down and make each ability or skill actually matter, and make mana management and aggro and positioning actually matter.
They need to make items and gear and stats actually matter and have value. I want to be able to trade my BiS gear or mounts or whatever if I want to trade it, I don't care if it pisses off the retards that mistakenly trade their good shit.
Make levels actually matter by making it hard to level up. If I see a level 80 character, I want to be like "HOLY SHIT HES LEVEL 80 HES A GOD!"
The only MMO I've played recently that does most of this shit right is Pantheon

>Why don't zoomers play MMORPGs?
jews destroyed even the MMORPGs worlds that were created to prison the minds of goyim, but since they cannot get rid of their instincts of usury and tax, they applied it to the MMORPGs resulting in their expulsion of 110 virtual MMORPGs or the entire population of server being btfo like gaza,errr i mean quitting the server forever.

WoW and FFXIV were the beginning of the end of the genre, imo
FFXI was probably the last good old school type of MMO
FFXIV does some things right though, like at least they have some sick looking gear and they actually added some content that is similar to old school MMO gameplay, like Eureka, Bozjan Southern Front, and Occult Crescent. Bozjan Southern Front was fucking great actually, having 1v1 boss fights where everyone can watch, and if you win, then everyone who watched gets an XP boost for an hour or two, that was a brilliant idea

Why the fuck would you start on a regular server when Lu4 was released this year?
