    The problem with new MMOs is that nobody wants to sink time into something that has an 80% chance of being shuttered in a few years

      I’d sink the time into an MMO.

      The problem for me with the last MMO I tried (Pantheon) is that a bunch of people would rather talk on Discord than type; and that straight up ruins MMOs for me. Discord can fuck off. I do not want to have my arm twisted to join your shitty discord server so that I can join your shitty voice chat, only to be forced into listening to a bunch of goons talking about their love of fascism and Nazi shit while I’m playing a game. MAGA fucks can never keep their shitty opinions to themselves so even in a game where I’m a half naked ogre beating the shit out of a pig, trying to gain some gold.

      I don’t want to sink time into a kind of game that is one step above a point and click adventure game but with the constant need of repeating tasks like they’re house chores.

        This is the exact kind of game I have the energy for these days but I’m not paying all the money they demand.

        I hope the new world community has been working on private servers.
