Wildstar! It was the best playing mmo I’ve ever seen. The platforming was neat, the world was varied and cool, there was player housing with almost endless customisation! I miss that game.
To cancel something is to no longer do something at a future date. If the game was originally planned to exist in a year but no longer does, that meets the definition of cancelled. The OP question is strangely worded - how can you miss a game you were never able to play?
Edit: Started to read through everyone else’s opinions and it dawns on me that this is just going to be a giant list of things I may have never even heard of that I might want to play, and can’t. You are a sadomasochist. :)
Early Overwatch was great. Then some updates made it better. The only things wrong with it were design choices that were made for financial reasons. Then they made it much worse. Then they made it worse. And worse. And then they made 2, which turned it into just another ‘left-click on the target’ game, because those make more money. It saddens me that it died.
I liked 6v6, they should’ve made more tanks and healers.
I didn’t like role queue, sure it’s a strong team buildup but I don’t think it should’ve been forced. I really liked being able to flex between classes depending on what was needed. Sometimes five DPS and a healer will break through a point. Being a tank or healer with bad DPS makes an already limited role even worse.
Ow2 seems like they just trashed my game ($60aud) and added MTX.
I can’t get into marvel rivals, the time to kill seems too low, Overwatch was a bit more lethal.
Agreed. Role queue was dumb. I liked having the ability to look at how things have been going and say ‘They’re doing X. I’ll swap to this character and screw up their plans.’ The thing I loved most about OW was that it wasn’t locked into the left click first competition. Their Widow is causing trouble? Lucio>wall climb>drop in>boop them out of their safety bubble and get them shredded. Distract them behind a shield to the left so someone on the right can sneak up on them. Or go Sombra and do an invis run/tele to magdump into their head at point blank. Or go monkey and pig meatwall to get close enough to ruin her day. Whatever. Just something with more intelligence than left-click and die repeatedly.
I miss Mayhem too. People complained that it took too long to die/kill but that was what was amazing about it. How many games can you say have ever felt like you were in an epic fight where every thrust, parry, twist, duck, and swing mattered? Where you don’t win by the luck of a single shot but have to tactically manipulate enemy attention so you can change the angle of attack so it favors your healer over their Junkrat? Battles won or lost by the timing and precision placement of a Zarya hole catching the targets thrown by a Lucio boop to hold them just off the payload just long enough to get to the next checkpoint?
No, seriously, give Rivals a chance. It’s free so you have nothing to lose.
Two of the original OW developers were heavily involved in its development, so the game feels just like OW did back in 2016. Trust me, you won’t miss Overwatch 2 once you get used to it.
I was on the same boat as you forever. I came back to ow2 late last year. I’ll say this. OW feels better than it ever has. Very balanced and very fair, while maintaining that very chaotic and energized feeling. They added tiered perks which really break up the monotony of the game, and also brought back loot boxes.
It feels like they realized the game became stagnant, and they’re doing as much as they can to bring it back to peak, and past that.
They also are bringing back 'classic overwatch", and I’ll say this… After you play classic and go back to regular you can feel the difference. The only thing I miss is 6v6 but it seems like that’s coming back soon too
Play Marvel Rivals now while it’s still fun. It’s free.
It plays just like 2016 Overwatch did, because it was made by some of the original OW devs. The same ones who left because they were tired of all the fun metas being made boring to please the hardcore players who have no life outside of video games. That isn’t an issue with Rivals yet. Enjoy it while you still can.
So I have three different typ of games from the top of my head.
A game I know was a thing that got cancelled. Life by You I am so pissed it got caned. I was looking forward to it so so much.
Then a game I don’t really know if it actually was a thing, I heard about it after it was cancelled, but I can’t really find much about it. Is The Sinister Six it was apparently a game about the Spider-man super villain group of the same name, as they appertaining in Insomniac’s spider man games. All I really remember is that you were supposed to play as the villains and it sounded good, I however only heard about it after it was caned so I really don’t know much more about it.
And then there is this game that was never a thing, but an April fools joke in 2015. There would be a cross over game between The Sims and GTA. I got so excited about it, it still sounds like it could have been awesome.
Those are some different typs of cancelled games that I really miss.
City of Heroes, everything by Atari Games, the Wizardry series, the Ultima series, many others. I’m old, and I remember some of the games, and developers, we’ve lost.
Your comment made me finally get around to setting up Homecoming (hooray WINE!) and I just got to the character creation screen… I haven’t played since before it went to free to play what is all of this stuff? Oh well, I’m sure I’ll feel like I’ve come home once I’m running sewers, lol.
From my two days of playing a year or two ago, they unlock all premium features and expansions for you at the onset, so there’s a bunch of extra stuff.
I’ve heard of them, I might consider trying one someday, but the research and effort to set it up is an obstacle. Plus I don’t run Windows any more, and I don’t even know what Linux support for it is like.
Lance is the best! But it’s also one of the hardest to use effectively.
Look up the actual combos, because most of the games I’ve played in the series do not tell you every single combo you can do in game, and some of them are extremely helpful. Especially with the lance.
It helps to think of fights against monsters as a turn-based encounter. As long as you can dodge or the monster misses its attack, you should be able to land a hit. If you get hit or are too far away when the monster attacks, you probably won’t be able to land any meaningful offense or heal without getting punished for it.
