Played on PC.

Boring as fuck basic Korean mmo with a fuckload of grinding to get more stats and skills.
Has a sphere grid system that opens up new classes and shit, but it requires crystals to open up more spheres and they have a daily cap too.

Enjoy.

It’s probably gonna be another Neverwinter

6

Neverwinter was actually a much better game.

7

well people whining about FFXIV grinds and waiting for Stormblood, could find Skyforge refreshing.

8

They could and they may.
But most MMOs are shit nowadays, dead genre imo.

" ***** costume"

:tdown:

Back in my day, you made your own costume and roleplayed for real. I was a Rogue Wizard Shaman Ranger Monk whenever I wanted to be. Didn’t need to damned dev-issued costume. Just the items in the game and an imagination. Because the devs actually made a good game and not a fucking money grab.

:tup:

I really didn’t like a single thing about it. My main issue is that for some reason inventory management was barely functional in a party for some reason.

well its a very active genre considering FFXIV is leading the genre and getting a new expansion which will rejuvenate interest even further. WoW and FFXI were played generations longer than games from other genres.

and FFXIV gives more freedom, customization, than the single player dictatorship driven force fed FF rpgs.
FFXIV also force feeds a story as well, but at least players can be whatever they want, which is an essential fundamental feature all rpgs should have, and existed since pencil and paper Dungeons and Dragons games.

practically The Elder Scrolls is the only nonmmorpg/single player game that understands and respects that freedom. players can always come up with greater protagonist design, personality, setting lifestyle goals, and open RPing than developers can think up.

it’s a shame still generally it’s only the mmorpgs/orpgs that give players personalized freedom and more customizable identity freedom.

yea the downside of mmorpgs is that their business model overstretches effort, and hamfists its objectives and rewards like a soda machine, but they still generally provide more freedoms that single player games should have as well.

though one thing is for sure, a decent mmorpg is entirely better than some interactive movie.
