There are a lot of great single playthrough MMORPG, but very few have a steady enough update cycle to keep a proper endgame. If you want to just play through a story and putter around, SWTOR, GW2, FF14, and others are a lot of fun for at least a while.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
Nearly every MMO should be on here, it’s basically a dead genre but zombified 20+ year old MMO still keep going. Ultima Online got an update last month, WoW keeps pushing xpacs on the regular, even ones that do get killed 50/50 get brought back as private servers like SWG, CoH, and many more.
If an MMO hasn’t already been closed, chances are it will still be here in another 5 or even 10 years, because there is a diehard MMO fanbase out there that regularly or even exclusively plays MMO (and often the same MMO they’ve been playing all these years). Surprisingly there are tons of new players showing up, as children and younger relatives of existing players or just curious people that heard the legends of some weird niche game come to check it out, so although the player base is declining as they age out (or die, come on gamers we’re getting old) it will still be there for a long time.
Mark my words, the first truly decent MMO to come out in the next decade is gonna hit it off big, we’ve had lots of disappointments in the genre in the last decade, and niche or region specific games that didn’t really hit it off, but if we got a well made MMO especially one connected to a big IP (no, Dune is probably not it, sorry guys I wish it was) it would knock it right out of the park.

What about TNG: Encounter At Farpoint aka the first appearance of Q?

Controversial? You are literally the first person I’ve ever heard say that.
- Comment on The best MMOs in 2023 - PCGamer 1 year ago:
GaaS took all the profitable pieces of the MMO model, and left the entire genre a desiccated husk populated with zombie games that refuse to die from the 90s, 00s, and 10s. Other than a couple Asian market games (because that market is a lot more accepting of extreme monetization in MMO) and New World, I literally cannot think of a single MMO released in the 2020s that wasn’t just a kickstarter scam, and even those are less common now.

Yeah I am gonna be honest, I am pretty much over this “trend” thing, the quality of memes has gone downhill. I’d prefer less memes of better quality than logging into Risa and having to figure out why some random side character is suddenly the punchline to every joke.
Hell even my friend that doesn’t visit the site but I link them choice memes was immediately bored of the trends, and they only saw a small segment of what I felt were the best ones, and they’re the biggest Star Trek fan I know.

No see, it’s radically self-correcting… once it is no longer habitable by the organisms causing the change, it will cool down quite a bit actually.

As a Canadian, with the preface that some of my best friends are Americans and I mean this with all due love and respect, we see you as the Ferengi not the Klingons.

Uh… you know he was a Canadian citizen, and served in the Canadian army right?
James Montgomery Doohan (/ˈduːən/; March 3, 1920 – July 20, 2005) was a Canadian actor and author, best known for his role as Montgomery “Scotty” Scott in the television and film series Star Trek. Doohan’s characterization of the Scottish chief engineer of the Starship Enterprise was one of the most recognizable elements in the Star Trek franchise, and inspired many fans to pursue careers in engineering and other technical fields.[1] He also made contributions behind the scenes, such as the initial development of the Klingon and Vulcan languages. Prior to his acting career, Doohan served in the 14th Field Artillery Regiment of the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division.
- Comment on The Invincible is now available on Steam 1 year ago:
Wtf is “atompunk” and why does every single sci fi genre have to be called somethingpunk now? Cyberpunk had a reason to be called that, I really don’t see the reasoning behind every other somethingpunk moniker.

If the STATE of Israel (note: not the Israeli people, not the Jewish faith or people) would stop acting like Earth Nazis then maybe this joke wouldn’t have been immediately recognized as that by you and everyone else.

The sample size is 2, and both of them were terrible people before they got into politics.
Reagan was an authoritarian bootlicker who helped out communists as the President of SAG, he was already a fascist and was voted in because he was a fascist that was good at public speaking.
Not even gonna get into how shitty of a human being Trump was before being president, except to point out he was the biggest voice accusing Obama of faking his birth certificate.

Yeah seems really weird that a service with 2/3rds or more of the users than Discord is completely unknown to me or any of my fellas on the group discord when I asked them.
Can’t tell if I am falling out of touch, the service is aimed at a completely different demographic than me, or these numbers are bullshit.

What’s the opposite of good-looking? I swear context is impossible for most people on the internet.

You really are confused, I never asked for a list, and didn’t take this personally in any way.
I just think you have some weird misogynistic views of what a woman is, and what their interests are.
- Comment on Redditor when women 1 year ago:
Oh cool she definitely represents the entire female population of the world. Maybe you should go try and meet a second or even third woman (not including your mother), it might give you a broader perspective.
