What single player game can I play to feel the wonder of big mmo worlds again? Why haven't anyone really try to bring mmo formula to single player games?

genshin

>single player
fuck off
>gacha
double fuck off

>>714618009 (OP)
>Kingdoms of Amalur

It's old, but it's literally a single player MMO with great artwork, lore, and combat.

>>714618162
Genshin is single player, retard. You don't want actual recommendations, you just want to suck on your nostalgia boner.

>>714618162
lol mmos are dead gacha won

>>714618313
>Genshin is single player
Well it's not offline so not really

>>714618009 (OP)
>bring mmo formula to single player games?
who in the name of holy fuck would want that?
oh yeah you should play Dragon Age Inquisition.

You can just play Classic WoW, friend. Hardcore forces you to take it slow and steady so you can really soak in the world whilst trying not to die.
>single player
go self found and avoid dungeons

>>714618607
>who in the name of holy fuck would want that?
I would.
I found this game called Erenshor and it looks super comfy. Like literally single player mmo experience with bots pretending to be players. Some would say the best of two worlds. Also WoW SPP seems curious.

>>714618009 (OP)
Dragon Age Inquisition is basically a single player MMO

>>714618070
gachatrash is disqualified by default, insect

>>714618009 (OP)
You can emulator classic wow and populate it with bots

>>714618009 (OP)
Because MMOs of that type are invariably watered down garbage compared to real games.

>>714620195
Depends on what you're asking for from a game. I like mmos having a big world, good progression systems and some decent grind. Not many single player games offer that kind of experience really (and fewer and fewer mmos sadly)

>>714618009 (OP)
Gedonia, Ardenfall (upcoming)

>>714618009 (OP)
Morrowind with Tamriel Rebuilt + Project Tamriel

guild wars 1

>>714618009 (OP)
Grim Dawn

No thanks

>>714621571
Looks neat but
>gacha
ew ew ew

>>714621571
We really need to bully you gachagolems back into your lockers.

>>714621819
btw "gacha but no microtransactions" sounds like a dope premise too, I'd play that
inb4 Breath of the Wild
no cute girls to unlock there, also I'm a pcfag

>>714621213
entered the thread to post this but OP is a massive faggot

>>714622186
would a faggot post this?

>>714618009 (OP)
Just play OSRS with entity hider, block chat, etc etc. That's pretty much single player

>>714623456
>That's pretty much single player
Not really if it's online and I have to pay a sub

try dragon's dogma

Erenshor is intentionally designed as a singleplayer MMO.

>>714624773
Yeah it's a game that started my search, I wonder about other similar projects.

botw
elden ring
pretty much any open world game that has theme park zones I guess

I've been looking for the same thing, man. Something with a wealth of choice in builds without being annoying skilltree ARPG faggotry, getting walled by high level mobs until I'm strong enough and through that having a sense of wonder and fear in exploring the world. Cyberpunk 2077's been scratching the itch, but it's just not the same.

>>714618070
they hated him because he spoke the truth

>>714624773
Seems cool but I wish there was more classes or multiclassing.

>>714625909
Gedonia

Morrowind with Tamriel Rebuilt

>>714618009 (OP)
I'm currently playing vanilla wow "singleplayer" server with my bros
you can fill the server with bots and play with your fellas if you want

>>714627046
There's a new 5th class coming. Multiclassing would be a nightmare to balance.

>>714624773
>>714630917
Erenshor dev is based

>>714618009 (OP)
unironically

>>714621213
is there a guide to set this up? sounds difficult with multiple mods involved

>>714618928
why's there ai slop on the ui?

Three games I always see recommended in these threads is morrowind, kingdom of amalur and genshin

>>714618928
ENTER

>>714631085
A very cool dude.
>make game all by yourself
>50 patches and ongoing since EA release around mid April

>>714630917
>balance
It's a single player game, classes don't need to be balanced.

>>714618009 (OP)
Kingdom of Amalur that game is overly large with a lot of quests if you just want a mmo grind wowish art style I'd give it a go I had fun.

>>714618009 (OP)
literally kingdoms of amalur

Erenshor
Black Grimoire Cursebreaker
.hack on ps2

>>714631473
Some minimal balance is desired. I wouldn't want to one-shot everything I touch throughout the entire adventure nor would I want to get dunked on by anything constantly. There are enemy HP/damage sliders if you want things to be less of a snooze or want damage sponges.

play nehrim and enderal, its like skyrim and oblivion but better, also the are like mmos too i guess

>>714631148
Use this or follow it loosely and add more stuff if you want

maybe Wayfinder?

>>714622086
Gacha is meh because you have to hope the devs make a character that looks the way you want it to, then you have to pray it also has the same gameplay style or weapon that you would like to use on a character that looks like that. I wish devs would go back to letting people make their own characters.

what are your thoughts on this game? i played it for a little while but i got bored, anything interesting you liked about the game?

I don't really get that MMO feeling from any single player game.

>>714632297
not him but may as well wait for Gedonia 2

>>714618431
If this matters to you then I'd look options that are available outside of Steam as well. Not much difference there.

sacred 1-2, also they were the first diablo-likes that added mounts into the game (and unique mounts)

>>714631142
square really stretched the content in these remakes so hard

>>714618009 (OP)
unironically
get over the furrybait and it's actually pretty good for a singleplayer mmolike experience

>>714621571
what this does not show is 500 hours of grind to get from one region to the other

>>714632297
>hey you played gedonia what did you think of it?
>no reply
i guess no one actually played gedonia, can't even say what the game is about and what you do in it

just play mop classic

You can emulate wow servers
Look up wow spp

>>714632297
I played the first one for like 70 hours, it's a lot of simple and easy fun. It did take me a little bit to get into it though, I recommend just running off and doing whatever you want, ignore the main quest and factions until the end. The second one is shaping up very nicely too.

>>714618009 (OP)
fuck single player games what online game can I play to feel excited by exploring and fighting npc niggas with friends? there aren't any good pve multiplayer games anymore

>>714633908
I just like collecting rare items. It probably wasn't as fun when it first came out, but all the endgame update stuff teasing you makes you want to explore until you can access those things. Optional bosses in each region drop the best items for your level so you're incentivized to find and fight them all. Unique puzzles that require some reading of the lore. Epic level upgrades appear in your crafting recipes which tells you that there are rare items you night have missed. For example, dragonscales are an ingredient but I played for dozens of hours before I noticed that, I didn't even know it had dragons. After that I combed the whole world for any other secrets. It just does a good job of making you want to find everything.

>>714633908
it also does a good job delineating areas but difficulty, like you can't realistically clear high level stuff if you aren't actually high level with good gear, you will die. There's an expansion area that you can't access at all until like level 50 but you can't actually kill anything there at all until level 60, it just makes you want to keep building.

>>714618009 (OP)
Minecraft

>>714634442
Yeah that's about my experience with it too. It's got some cool stuff though.

>downloading gedonia for the third time so I can be disappointed for the third time when it tries to melt my toaster GPU
I blame these two dweebs above me.

wow's open world is rarely matched

>>714635956
have fun anon. I recommend two-handers and speed build

>>714632957
>can't play as a human male
bummer

>>714618070
This is only true if you quit after Mondstadt and Liyue.

>>714618009 (OP)
MMO worlds aren't really all the good though - WoW has a nice artstyle and thats what you are asking for - the actual world itself is empty and even your screenshot shows how much nothing space there is

>>714638251
that's how an open world is supposed to be
