One repeated refrain that comes up around the Massively OP office when we’re dealing with older MMOs is, “Wouldn’t it be great if they made a sequel to that game?” We love the original IP worlds, the unique design, and the long history of these titles, but we would also love to see them updated and overhauled for 2016.
Of course, it’s a little hard to figure out which game deserves it the most. Dark Age of Camelot? City of Heroes? Both have spiritual successors in the works, but it’s not quite the same as a true sequel. Anarchy Online and Asheron’s Call are both often cited as strong prospects for an updated entry. And without worrying about licensing an IP from outside the studio, these games theoretically could be done easier and less expensive than contemporaries.
What do you think? Which original IP MMO deserves a true sequel?
Every morning, the Massively Overpowered writers team up with mascot Mo to ask MMORPG players pointed questions about the massively multiplayer online roleplaying genre. Grab a mug of your preferred beverage and take a stab at answering the question posed in today’s Daily Grind!
