Sometimes we are not very fair to MMOs when we try them for the first time.
Maybe we’re not in a good mood or don’t really want to take the time to learn new systems. Perhaps some petty slight turned us off, or we failed to make a connection in the first 10 minutes. It could even have been that there was too much else on our plates, so our hearts were not into it.
There have been several times in my gaming career where I gave a less-than-fair attempt to try a new MMO and, unsurprisingly, it failed to stick. Yet when I came back later on, perhaps when the game improved, it clicked with me and I was happy that I made the decision to give it a second chance.
Which MMO deserves a second chance from you? What titles have you been keeping in the back of your mind when you think of games that you really should try again at some point?
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!
