ArcheAge: Delphinad’s Legacy

Posted: 13 Jul 2014 07:02 PM PDT

Delphinad

How long should MMOs last? It's a question that splits communities and confuses publishers. Some enthusiasts believe an MMO should persist in perpetuum, continuously getting updates, never ending.

The recent implementation of Patch 1.2 on Trion World's ArcheAge alpha servers brought this topic to the forefront of discussion among fans of the game.

The Neverending Story (Journal)

I'll admit to not being entirely on board with the new-fangled story Journal as it was posted on the Guild Wars 2 site a month ago. "Repeatable" was the keyword that most of us latched onto, and there was stuff about "no pounding-signpost-grinding" and "challenge" in there, but I figured I'd wait until it all went live before getting too pumped up about anything.

6 Enduring MMOG Beliefs I Just Don

The MMOG space has never lacked for differences of opinion. This isn't a problem; it would be pretty dull without them. What's more, we generally recognize that it's normal for at least some other people's views to diverge from our own. However, this is an expression of my rational side. At the gut feeling level, certain things with which I disagree are considerably harder for me to "get" than others.
