I agree Siren. MMORPG have become so much...the same. If you've played one, you've played them all. Benoit, I thought you said you like the PS games for their innovation? And then you say you'd like an MMORPG Phantasy Star...that is defenitely not innovation. That's like nearly every game on the internet. So Sonic Team brings PSO online, as an RPG but not an MMORPG, and breaks the mold of the tedious Everquest type games to create a truly fun game. An MMORPG would destroy that. Tell me, Benoit, would you like to spend 3 hours leveling up you mining skill on a Phantasy Star game? Let's hope not.

No, of course not.<br>But I haven't played or seen a MMORPG yet that simulates a real life with some fantasy elements. That's my dream.

Oh...but I wouln't want that type of game...PSO is best, pure and simple. However, there is a game that simulates real life with fantasy elements, however, it isn't released yet and is for the X-Box. It is called True Fantasy Live Online...you can be pretty much anything (even a blacksmith). I admit, it looks kind of cool, simply because it's not like every other MMORPG out there.I don't know why you'd want a game that simulated real life with slight bits of fantasy in it...that defeats the purpose of a video game.

Not really, because it would still mean you having fun doing things you couldn't in real life. It would also enable you to have your online buddies 'living nextdoor', and such. It's still a virtual experience, the creation of your own community.

Even though I don't see what people like about it, The Sims is exactly what you're looking for. It's like real life, except you can do some stuff in it like build a house. <p>Like I said, for me it's pointless have a game like that when you could go outside and experience almost all of it's content for yourself.

heh@The sims, I dont own a pc nor would I wanna buy that game when I do get a pc.<p>hmm True Fantasy Online eh? I think I've heard of that before. I plan to buy a XBOX so maybe I'll have to get that.<p>Still tho I want a MMORPG PS, mainly for the Phantasy Star story, that and they could do something new that no other MMORPG has done.<p>I had totaly forgot that PS3 wasnt made by the creator of the series. I enjoyed PS3 very much, the whole generations thing truely gave the series something real&new for its time. it too is something I'd love to see in a MMORPG PS.<br><p>[size=small][Edit by ZioTheHoly on [TIME]1082338903[/TIME]][/size]

<blockquote><i>Originally posted by Benoit</i><p>HuBBs, you can delete your double post, you know...<p>Most of us don't want to play with you since you are one of the people who ruin the game. It's as simple as that.<br>Is it that hard to know that cheating = bad? I mean, you do know what CHEATING means, right? Come on...<br></blockquote><p> How true.... Benoit's right you know, people like you ruin the game, make it less fun for others. One of the main things in my mind of being online is the fun of showing off your rare LEGIT items to other characters. But then we see people like you dropping unsealed J-Swords all over and it's no fun anymore. So Zio, I reccomend you get the hell of of this site, f***ing cheater.<br>

The Sims? That's just a lame management sim... Not what I have in mind.<br> <blockquote>Like I said, for me it's pointless have a game like that when you could go outside and experience almost all of it's content for yourself.</blockquote> <br>But it's not a virtual world. You won't be able to do some stuff that you would be able to do in a game. It isn't your community. You can't change anything about it unless you have loads of money, and then still it's hard.<br>It would be like living a new world, and being part of it.

<blockquote>they better make a true MMORPG PS V dang it</blockquote> <p> <blockquote><i>Originally posted by LaconianShot</i><br>Let's hope not. PSO is not actually classified as an MMORPG at all...it is, officially, classified as an Online RPG...not Massively Multiplayer. Also, MMORPG almost never have story at all... and have the worst cheating. PSO is fine as it is.<br>And most defenitely <b>not</b> a disgrace.[/quote]<p><blockquote><i>Originally posted by LaconianShot</i><p> MMORPG. The that many of you seem to dread here on PSCave. For those of you wondering what MMORPG stands for, Let me show you.<p>Massively---------------| <br>Multiplayer-------------|<br>Online-------------------| ALL OF WHICH APPLY TO<br>Role---------------------| PSO!!!<br>Playing------------------|<br>Game-------------------| <p> You're insulting the very game you play the most. As for the accusation that MMORPG's have no storyline at all, well than can be shot down in a few words: The free ones don't. All MMORPG's you people've probably ever played besides PSO were free, perhaps the likes of runescape and such. But the good games that you have to pay for, such as Everquest, or Final Fantasy XI actually have lots of story.<p> And what you said about the worst cheating? Most MMORPG's are too frequently updated to prevent that stuff. Apart from Diablo, PSO has the worst when it comes to cheating.<br><p>[size=small][Edit by Makaeveli on [TIME]1082411423[/TIME]][/size]

If that's what you want, than True Fantasy Live Online is the game for you. It looked kinda interesting, and had all the elements you described. Still, I think that would be a move in the wrong direction for PS. <p> <blockquote><br>Massively---------------| <br>Multiplayer-------------| <br>Online-------------------| ALL OF WHICH APPLY TO <br>Role---------------------| PSO!!! <br>Playing------------------| <br>Game-------------------| <p></blockquote><p>Uh, except the Massive part. PSO is small enough to be considered just an Online Game. That alone changes how the game is.

Everquest has a storyline? I meant a <b>good</b> one. Everquest has very little concern with story line...<br>And I explained why PSO isn't an MMORPG several times in this thread alone...were you not reading?<p>And, Benoit, you'll most defenitely like True Fantasy Live Online....hell, I even thought that it was a cool concept...if they pull it off right. I also heard that it has a heavy influence on story too. Sadly, it's only for X-Box.<p> <blockquote>So Zio, I reccomend you get the hell of of this site, f***ing cheater. <br></blockquote> <br>You're the one who wanted to PK! And at least Zio is moderatly polite about it...and told us. Don't judge, you've cheated on every MMORPG that you've ever played.<p>[size=small][Edit by LaconianShot on [TIME]1082418022[/TIME]][/size]
