Corepunk, the WoW Killer?

WoW killers always think “If I just did [THING] in my MMO, I’d kill WoW” but you’re not going to because:
Graphics
Raids
Bring the Player; Not the Class
Mythic anything
“hard” whatever

It doesn’t matter. All those things are dumb. The RPG element wins, and the longer WoW goes, the more “stuff” to do is in the game. I am my character. And I’m here for other players. No game is going to touch that.

Looks a little more interesting than that dull as dirt New World but still not much is catching my eye… genderlocking and PvP only kills any interest what so ever though.

Why take the worst features of an Eastern MMO?

WoW is what will kill WoW.

The only game that stands a smidgen of a chance is Ashes of Creation, and after seeing what they’re planning recently - I’m not so sure anymore.

They’re on the right path with the 40/60 split, though. They’re on the right path with generated dungeons and group content and raids.

Why have an MMO built around MOBA styled movement? It works for Diablo because its a dungeon crawler, but this feels like a Heroes of the Storm version of… I don’t know, the game seems so incredibly lackluster to sit through a session of gameplay.

Back atcha!! Cheers!

Nope.

A top down game with what looks like a Diablo style combat system and interface likely wont impact WoW.

I wouldn’t even compare these two as the same genre of game personally.

I’m a huge diablo fan and a fan of ARPG’s in general - so I was a bit surprised to hear that people ABHOR click-to-move games. If this is as click-to-move as it looks, people will not play it.

Lineage 2 was fun in its day.

I never understood what makes ppl sign into the WoW forums to profess their hatred of the game.

Then again I don’t understand these prolific posters who are like ‘maybe I’ll resub’.

That’s like going to an NBA game and hanging out in the parking lot all night to talk to other ppl about basketball.

no single game is going to kill wow.

the only way to kill wow is for activision/blizzard to straight up kill it themselves.

that said, look at ashes of creation, now that looks like a good game (until the community implodes on itself a few months after launch and it becomes unplayable)

Realistically the only one that in fact labeled himself as a wow killer was Rift.

The desperate need for attention and validation.

You are likely correct but wouldn’t they get that more if they logged into the FFXIV forums instead to bash WoW?
