I’m still playing endless Luanti while waiting for Guild Wars 2 to get SteamDeck verified.

Edit: Downvoter can’t handle that Luanti is an MMO, now. I can’t help that I’m the world’s most accomplished self-hoster. (This is sarcasm, humorously implying that I’m hosting the world’s biggest Luanti instance, such that it qualifies as “massively multiplayer”. Which one might almost believe if they read my post history… I’m pretty active in both the Luanti and self-hosting communities.)

DireTech,

Why do you need to wait for GW2 to get verified? I’ve been playing it on deck for over a year.

swordgeek, do games w What MMORPG are you playing, and why?

None.

Because I hate people.

MajorHavoc,

Good point. Most people suck.

I do miss the goofballs from my old WoW server though. They were pretty great.

Ultima Online the OG mmorpg. There’s a private run server that launched 6 years ago and took the community by storm. They’ve reworked almost everything and it’s amazing. Outlands is the name of the server. UO outlands is like the UO2 we never got.

SplashJackson,

Outlands pisses me off because I exclusively bank thieve and townkill. How am I supposed to get my rocks off when they Trammelize?

Croquette,

I haven’t played for almost two years. Are they making more PvE friendly?

SplashJackson,

Beats me I haven’t played in years

Brighter Shores! It’s a new game by Andrew Gower on his new game engine (just came out last month).

It’s a point and click game similar to RuneScape that’s mostly a second screen game. It’s in early access and a lot will probably change in the coming months based on feedback (they’ve already confirmed they’re rethinking some of their combat design and adding action queuing).

Unlike RuneScape it’s been designed out of the gate to provide people with a way to engage without sinking a ton of time. You can do fully offline training in this game, so you can be gaining XP while you sleep.

The game runs like a dream, has a very well done sound track, tastefully simplistic graphics, and just generally is a cozy/feel good MMO with light humor and puns.

No micro transactions, generous amount of free to play content, and a $6/mo subscription for all content.

johntash,

Huh I heard about his new game but didn’t realize it was already in some sort of early access. Cool!

If you’re interested, now is a good time to start playing. There are some limited edition hats being dropped for the holiday!

Old school runescape. I just get addicted to the grind until I need a couple month break.

HubertManne, do games w What MMORPG are you playing, and why?

Ive been off mmorpg's for years now. I miss it a bit but I don't miss the grind and stick to games I can put down and pick up whenever. I used ot play the cryptic ones which I do feel were very well donw. Well champions and star trek. I was not a big neverwinter fan.

There’s not even any hills

Project: Gorgon is my forever home MMO, I’m not super active currently but am online for events and such. I’ve found it to be the only title on the market that feels like a world you join instead of a game you log in.

I figured as much now.

I was high myself as I commented this.

Definitely not Rust. Very wholesome game.

It was definitely the first persistent survival game that taught me I don’t have the time or energy for that genre.

ByteOnBikes,

I can’t find that one story where a guy was having a lot of fun being kidnapped. They roleplayed for like an hour.

skooma_king,

Might have been Reksmore. They added handcuffs and a headbag recently. For wholesome adventures, of course.

CrabAndBroom, do gaming w TIL that Will Wright, while making The Sims, was inspired by Quake

Me: I wonder what Will Wright is up to these days?

Wikipedia:

At GalaVerse on December 11, 2021, Wright announced a new project, in partnership with Gala Games, called VoxVerse. Wright said VoxVerse will be a blockchain game, where players will be able to create areas to explore and interact with and share these with other players of the game, incentivizing creators through the ability to trade or sell their works as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) using cryptocurrency. Wright stated that the use of blockchain and NFTs are mechanisms needed to support the vision he has, but has no interest in selling NFTs directly to players as other blockchain games or NFT schemes have had done in the past.

Me: oh.

ByteOnBikes,

😭

If I had a nickel for every time a 90s-2000s developer is now into Blockchain…

Do I have two nickels or three?

CrabAndBroom,

I searched “Peter Molyneux NFT” because my first thought was, if any of them are on the NFT grift it’ll be him.

First result lol.

merthyr1831,

once got interviewed by a guy who used to be lead dev on the classic F1 games (pre EA) and nowadays he just runs a team that makes horse racing simulations for casinos.

Also I understand his house burnt down in the late 20th century, and the joy of rebuilding/furnishing was another motivation for the game.

ByteOnBikes,

Yep! That was the story in the book. He grabbed his wife and neighbor, and when they returned, everything was burned to the ground!

He originally wanted it to be about a game where people interacted with furniture to feel things, and it was called Dollhouse. But play testers found watching their Sims more fun.

DieserTypMatthias, do gaming w What is your Game of the Year?

Factorio. And Cities: Skylines 2 if I’m playing it on Windows.

SilverShark,

Factorio just makes hours disappear, it’s an amazing game! Have you played the expansion?

vrighter,

SilverShark,

Damn, you got me!
