I played WoW a bit after its initial release through the first couple xpacs. Getting the MMO itch again, but I know the WoW I grew up with doesn’t really exist anymore, so now I’m pretty out of touch.

For those of you playing / recently played an MMO, which one? How’s the community? How’s the lore? Gameplay in pve/pvp/rvr?

    As a disclaimer, I am very casual with my game play, but I do love me some MMOs.

    I was playing New World pretty much since it’s release and I’ve loved every minute. Good graphics, ok story line, cool combat, no subscription (which is a big factor for me since I’m so casual). Pvp, pve, raids are relatively new, good community from what I’ve seen.

    From my understanding is that if you play a bunch of hours everyday and grind, grind, grind, you’ll quickly be bored since there’s lack of end game content, but I haven’t been bored at my pace.

    I’ve recently downloaded and have been playing Starfield, so I haven’t been playing NW since, but I do miss NW.

      I wish that they would add real controller support to NW. I started playing at launch but I really prefer the recliner gaming of consoles and the new wave of pc handhelds like the steam deck. I sit at a desk all day for work, I don’t want to game there too.

      You can rig steam up to play NW with a controller kind of but it does get annoying with the trade offs.
