Another E3 has rolled in and rolled out, and it wasn’t the worst E3 we’ve seen in recent years at all. In fact, insofar as MMOs go, we got some nice goodies from three of the larger genre staples: Final Fantasy XIV, Black Desert, and Elder Scrolls Online. They’re all three having a mighty nice summer, but E3 is the cherry on top. I might have to give the nod to Black Desert, however, as it revealed a brand-new expansion, class, and PS4 port in the span of just a few days.
Phantasy Star Online 2 obviously snagged a lot of attention too. But outside of MMOs? I’m legit going to play Conan Chop Chop. And it’s not an MMO at all, but personally the aesthetic of Deathloop really grabbed me. How about you? What did you think was the best MMO-ish reveal or announcement from this year’s E3?
