NWN3 will be actually a MMO


Recommended Posts

Sweet, just make a Baldur's Gate MMO while you're at it, and a Jade Empire MMO and a Hitman MMO. The possibilities are literally endless!

DDO is pretty solid, not my cup of tea but when I played with a permadeath group it was intense and fairly close in feel to the NWN permadeath server I used to play with.

 

NWN3 is a looooooong way off people. We really have no idea what type of game it will turn out to be. The term MMORPG doesn't refer only to WoW and its clones, so it's a bit early to jump to conclusions about NWN3. Also, the original NWN was very much designed around multiplayer aspects, so it's a bit alarmist to say NWN3 is abandoning the original vision.

Good point. The words "sausage-machine" come to mind.

This particularly rapid, unintelligible patter isn't generally heard, and if it is, it doesn't matter.

um, has everyone actually read the article? not once does it say "NWN3 will be an MMO." no, instead, it says "Champions Online and Star Trek Online developer Cryptic is said to be working on an (sic) Neverwinter Nights MMO" (sic mine). there's no reason to believe this has anything to do with NWN3, or even if there will or will not be one.

 

taks

comrade taks... just because.

****. Really? Must mega-publishers brutally murder all of the good franchises? Warcraft is dead, so's Kotor, and now we have a NWN MMO. Why? Can't they make a new IP? What a though, new IP's... no, instead they must sell all of their hardcore franchises for crappy MMOPOS's.

 

EPIC PHA1L!!!

In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum.

Now all we need is a Elder Scrolls MMO. :x

 

That would suck. Why? Because it would be an MMO, and all MMOs fail.

If taks is right then you guys are all jumping the gun at NWN MMORPG == NWN3.

 

 

Did the article actually say that NWN 3 is going to be a mmorpg?

Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

"all MMOs fail."

 

It's very rude to lie. :x

 

Not a lie. There has never been a good MMO. Those that had a shred of worthiness (and at this particular moment in tim I'm basing this off of the E3 trailer of TOR) all brutally murdered good franchises, thusly failing.

It will be interesting to see Neverwinter Nights as a 4e property, especially as Neverwinter is gone in 4e 4gotten Realms.

 

4e is the devil!

 

Maybe they could call it the Never Neverwinter Nights?

Neverwinter Nevermore? Or is that too much like an airport novel?

I'm sure it's easier to use at the table thanks to all the great streamlining and whatnot, but it would get pretty boring if all the classes play pretty much the same in a CRPG. I actually prefer the spell-crazy unbalanced BG2 system for CRPGs.

I love how just about every developer and publisher look at WoW and how much money they make. They want a piece of the pie but compared to singleplayer (or free multiplayer) games, MMOGs are extremely harsh business environment. There's WoW and EVE and then there's tons of barely profitable (or total failures) MMOGs.

And Lord of the Rings Online

 

And Everquest 2

 

And City of Heroes

 

but that's totally it, stupid developers!

 

oh, and Final Fantasy XI

 

But that's totally it, unless you count all the stupid last generation MMO's.

For a single player RPG, sure. But I can't see that system working for an MMO, especially when it comes to spells. Can you imagine being a level 1 mage?

For a MMO, sure. It's practically designed for it.
