Friends, I saw a horrific tweet the other day about – and I am not making this up – a “pay-to-earn gaming guild,” and my first thought was literally, man I’ve been in some real awful guilds and circles in my MMO career, but at least I’ve never been in a “pay-to-earn gaming guild,” whatever the hell that is supposed to be. Imagine the insufferable guild chat. Imagine the social nights. I can’t with it. Call me crazy, but I just can’t fathom thinking a guild about making money (especially in this way) would be a fun way to spend my time. But even if you forget the P2E elements altogether – would you actually want to be in a “guild” with an advisory board?
Don’t answer that question. This is not a “guild” in the sense that most MMO players would recognize anyway. Just tell me about the worst guild you’ve ever been in. You don’t have to name names or out anyone specifically – just give us the gist on how it all came crashing down!
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!
