Last year, it seemed like the trend was legacy servers for everyone. This year, the anti-pay-to-win push has been big, with ArcheAge Unchained at the vanguard. I gotta say, I would love for more live MMOs to try what Gamigo has done here.
I teased Gamigo’s Merv Lee Kwai in our interview with him a while back: I asked him where Trove Unchained was. He laughed and said if they ever do it, they’ll call it Trove Uncubed. But you know what, I’d legit play that, especially if it had some sort of offline or anti-pay-to-win component. I’d buy it four times for my whole family so we could play together and not have to worry about that mess. Is it happening? Probably not. But it’d be cool.
What other MMOs do you think need the “Archeage Unchained” treatment?
