you'll have better luck nailing down which MMORPG community isn't obnoxious
and that is
The UO community probably.
SWTOR
>don't know skip paths in dungeons
kicked
>don't know boss mechanics in raids (even though its your first time)
kicked
>don't have at least 1 trillion credits
laughed at, can't buy anything
SWTOR is shit and yet I still play it
I thought SWTOR was fully soloable nowadays.
It is he's just making up problems in his head
I've never been kicked for not knowing skips (on Dark Malgus)
>SWTOR
people are especially having fits on the newly opened apac server. they're freaking out when actual new people are coming into the game and don't know shit.
>SWTOR
This game is apparently getting its second wind ever since changing developers from Bioware to Broadsword. They already released more via updates than Bioware did in years, and even opened a much asked for Asian server.
because context is key. under bioware and ea it was just a failing mmorpg that locked up too much manpower. under broadsword it's the biggest project they have and worth developing.
so is it worth checking out then
It's still the same game.
A while ago a former SWTOR dev said on Twitter that SWTOR's biggest problem is Bioware, and I'm starting to think he was right
yeah, because it's fricking dead
just like every other mmo expect wow and ff14
LOTRO
Most MMOs pre-2010 were infested with people simply logging on to have fun with other people with no concrete goal set in stone. You only see a LEEROY JENKINS type parties in high end stuff.
Ganker
any that has a lot of pvpers
any that has a lot of pvmers
Basically any really small MMORPG where only the most dedicated, tiny clique remains. Maybe something chill like LotRO as well.
from what I hear lotro has gone to shit recently
Basically just incels mad that there's black people now
they put blacks in my lotr?
that's a reasonable stance, no sane human being wants black people around
Lol no one even cares about the avatar update. I have seen not a single woman with a beard. Umbar is also full of black people and again no one cares. Lotro has a billion real issues (like how the expansion is shit and has no content) for people to simply not give a shit about muh hecking diversity.
Lotro's community went from being comfy and lore autistic with the best boomers (because they were always happy to be kept in check by people who were experienced with the game) to nothing but the loudest and most angriest boomers shitting on literally everything and anyone. All the good people quit 8 years ago.
The developers unironically see 60 year old hobbit players doing literally nothing but multibox music bands as the core community and it has done serious damage to the game's health in its older years.
Couple this with the lead moderator banning anyone on the forums for disagreeing with the boomer group think (and recently started banning anyone using a fricking laughing emoji) and you get a very sour and bitter face of the community that honestly depresses me.
Not to mention this new wave of moron players who infest the smaller servers who have a talent for turning up any feud or gay drama up to 11 by getting involved trying to be weird wannabe moderators. The game is so mismanaged that you can get away with so much bullshit before they start to ban you and if you were really dedicated enough it takes 10 minutes to make an account because there's no verirication required.
It's a shit heap where trolls are unironically some of the smartest and nicest people in the game now. I honestly can't recommend it in its current state. It's not anywhere near as obnoxious as bigger MMOs and you can still find comfy niches of players. But for the relative obscurity of this game, the shit that comes with it is immense.
But that's the internet now. People changed...
Hate to pick the popular thing, but it's almost certainly World of Warcraft. It's nearly impossible to find a thread on their forums that isn't just b***hing and/or stupid ideas.
If I want to laugh at morons, I come here. If there isn't anything good here, the Blizzard forums are the second best place.
>Hate to pick the popular thing,
I'm sure you do
WoW is not the best but it definitely is not the worst. Forum morons should never be taken seriously, they aren’t an accurate sample of the community.
never ever use mmo-champ as a sample of anything. they make Gankerirgins look like geniuses
Every "hardcore" PVP sandbox game attracts the shittiest and most obnoxious people on earth, for some reason.
any game with a PvP side show seems to attract that type honestly.
Yeah, and honestly I hate it because I love the sandbox mmorpgs on their own... the people just tend to kill them ironically.
>the people just tend to kill them ironically.
because they don't really want to play a sandbox mmorpg, they just like the IDEA of playing one.
they jsut want to prey on low level or newbie players to raise their pp. The second that mode is remove or disable, they will cry about not killing newbies. Theyre the type of players that will never fight someone that is gear towards actual pvping. They know they will lose to them.
real root of the problem is "sandbox" has just boiled down to hardcore pvp when you could do so much more with an actual sandbox mmorpg
Sandbox games will always privilege the people who can put in hundreds of hours weekly into the game. Even moderately hardcore players like those who put in 4-6 hours every day will never be able to compete with metheads who play for 36 hours, sleep 4 and repeat infinitely. In normal sandbox MMOs this is already bad enough because it creates an awful snowball effect and if, god forbids, the game has full loot on death, it simply makes playing the game impossible.
Which is a boon for ordinary sane people who actually enjoy playing games
Normal people don’t play games 16+ hours a day, every day.
That's MMORPGs in general, though. Time investment is the key to victory unless you can straight up P2W in.
If it’s a theme park the difference in time invested won’t matter nearly as much, though. That’s my point. This sort of games need some sort of hard ceiling to avoid things getting out of hand.
Rust, and its not even close.
>inb4 "thats not an MMORPG"
That is not an MMORPG.
But yeah like I said in
idk man its massively multiplayer online and there are definitely rocket propelled grenades
Your mom is massively multiplayer online
PSO2 and ESO, for different reasons. PSO2 is FF XIV troonyism on steroids and ESO is WoW but 20x more aparthic and with less soul.
>want to play an MMO again
>WoW is meh
>FFXIV is meh
>Planetside 2 is basically dead but they still keep adding content to it anyway but even then can barely draw 2k+ people, even on peak
>Runescape gets old fast
>Diablo 4 is meh
>New World is mediocre
>Lost Ark is Korean tier levels of grinding
>Neverwinter is just confusing and dated
>LOTR has no appeal to me
>EQ2 has more buttons than you have fingers, toes, etc. with so many dated systems that it's just outright terrifying
>Rift is basically dead
I just want to buff, heal, support, maybe drop ammo or something. Maybe do raids or some shit? Or maybe I'm just getting older and everything fricking sucks.
If you don’t like wow or xiv maybe consider that you just don’t like MMOs. There’s also shit like ddo but I doubt you would enjoy it.
How long have you given each of those games to try them out?
WoW - Since vanilla, almost 20 years. Did everything to PvP, raids, grinds, etc.
FFXIV - Since beta 2.0, mostly did dungeons. Raids weren't too interesting for me.
Planetside 2 - 4,641 hours over the course of 10 years. It peaked when I played then apparently.
Runescape - Summer of '04, played a lot off and on since, pre-RS3 and combat overhaul
Diablo - Played D1 on PS1, played well over 5k+ hours on Diablo 2 back in the day. Quit cold turkey after dying on a seasonal ladder hardcore. Diablo 3, not too interested in it right now and don't care. Beat story mode in D4 and played a partial season 1 before getting bored. Needs a lot more work done.
New World - 800 hours, could never really do raids. Did a lot of crafting though.
Lost Ark - 212 hours. Meh.
Neverwinter - 176 hours.
LOTR - Zero
EQ2 - 10 minutes
Rift - 671 hours

Getting a fresh private server for Dark Age of Camelot on December 2nd. The server is called Eden 2. It's old, not a looker, but the combat mechanics are still the best in any MMO, people are pretty chill, and honestly it's a very fun game to play support on too if that's what you wanted to do. Really good PvP in this game if you can look past the outdated graphics and animations.

>but the combat mechanics are still the best in any MMO
It’s ESO beta. Its not good.
ESO sucks.
Yes
>>EQ2 has more buttons than you have fingers, toes, etc. with so many dated systems that it's just outright terrifying
EQ2 has so much bloat devs gradually even removed some of the content. On the flipside it has some cool shit like learning languages so enemies don't yell moon runes at you, for example. I'd say it's one of the few MMORPGs that has leftover markings of what made the genre cool back in the day albeit buried under the years of bloat.
i dont see gw2 in there
shame you didnt even try
PSO2. Take a look at their /vg/ thread. They have a convicted crack addict who beat his mother and has mugshots widely available online larping as a brats doll, a mega autist who bots the threads and posts his character over and over and some kid with bpd who will get into 16 hour arguments with random posters. This has been the case for nearly 4 years.
global was a mistake
city of heroes homecoming
I wish I could get into superheroes. That's like the one thing that inherently holds zero appeal to me.
That game actively killed any interest or like I had for that entire genre
I would say genshingays tie for XIVtrannies for being obnoxious, but the latter goes a step beyond when it comes to beingh vile degenerates and attention prostitutes
You don't have to interact with anyone in Genshin Impact. You kinda have to go out of your way to notice the community in the first place. Since it's not an MMORPG and all.
You posted it. And yes, I know that's the answer you wanted.
The one with the avatarhomosexuals who are also jannies who spam literally every thread.
splatoon
WoW.
The one with the most erping homoincels.
>tfw made the jump from pso2 to xiv
it's not really a 'better' game, but at the same time I'm an mmo player and we just kinda have to accept that gameplay will ever be a compromise
besides its obvious faults I'm honestly enjoying it more than the time I tried wow, the controller playstyle really makes it comfy with the expanded crossbar style
and dear god there are so many cosmetic mods, really nice for someone like me that enjoys playing dress-up
