The only way any game will compete with wow is if they match wows gameplay and endgame content (mythic plus, raids, pvp).

And here I thought your last thread was the dumbest thing Iā€™ve read all day, OP.

I see the troll is trying new bait

No way. Rift already put WoW out of business. So did SWtOR, AoC, Wildstar, New World, LotRO, and many many more.

For FF XIV? Since theyā€™re the MMO kings atm, Iā€™d assume itā€™d be competition for them?

Weā€™ll see. Iā€™ve barely heard a thing about Riotā€™s MMO, but if they go the New World route and claim their end-game, or even the bulk of the game is about PvP, it wonā€™t even show up on my radar anymore.

Honestly, considering how much New World has tanked and how many problems its had, Iā€™m grateful they made it about PvP and killed my interest before it ever had a chance to build up.

Guess weā€™ll see when it releases around the end of the decade.

Itā€™s not coming out in the near future, though.

Yeah see, people like you said this about New World tooā€¦

Guess how that went?

Like, sure, Riot may launch a good MMO but there are no details available for the game yet, not even a title, as Riot are still hiring developers to work on building it according to their website. So the game isnā€™t going to launch until late 2023, mid 2024 by the look of it.

And by then who knows what the state of WoW will be. Weā€™ll be in the next expansion by then (whatever that is) and Microsoft will have taken the reigns fully from Activision Blizzard, assuming of course that the sale gets regulatory approval, which Microsoft expects it will.

So youā€™re not just jumping the gun, youā€™re jumping the fence at the gun range several years before the shooter shows up to take his shot.

Assuming riot still has some of the CCP devs they poached still there this MMO shows potential. they did poach quite a few of the good ones from eve. Devs who when they leftā€¦a part of eveā€™s soul left too.

canā€™t fault them for greener pastures. But will play hate them since this gave rise to people like CCP Rattati coming into power. for those on the Ion hate trainā€¦even he is not as bad as Rattati. what he did to eveā€¦makes Ion look good actually.

Just not sure if on this project or if still there. Really didnā€™t e-stalk this much after they left.

Donā€™t hold your breath. I would say itā€™s a good 3 years away.

Itā€™s ā€œdeja vu all over againā€.

How the heck do you make an MMORPG out of LoL? Do you play a summoner? What about the ā€˜classesā€™, arenā€™t they gonna end up gender locked and stuck as multiple of the ā€˜same characterā€™?

How would you do different classes as you summon heroes to fight? Doesnā€™t seem interestingā€¦

So many threads just like this when New World was announced. No more threads about New World now, though.

Nothing wrong with competition.

From what Iā€™ve heard riots doing a decent job. Sometimes itā€™s good to have fresh mmoā€™s

Iā€™ll always love a good WoW sesh though

Old world now hahah, that game flopped

I think itā€™s funny every time a new MMO is on the horizon itā€™s going to be trouble for Wow :laughing:
Oh noes!
New MMO arrives
dies
Everyone who thought it was going to be great is never heard from again
:laughing:
