Rogues, Thieves, Smugglers, Scoundrels… they have many names, although for some reason we rarely see classes labeled Scofflaw or Blackguard. (I would play a Scofflaw.) But some games are more or less rogue-like than others. Sometimes your rogue feels appropriately swashbuckling and agile and so forth, while other times you feel like you’re playing someone who is basically a more conventional warrior who happens to be wearing leather. That’s not what you signed up for!
But today we want to celebrate the times when you do, in fact, feel very roguish. When an MMO lets you feel as rogue as a rogue can rogue. Whatever the name of your occupation or skill line or whatever, which MMO has the most roguish Rogue? Where you feel like the most swashbuckling amazing hero or even just the most thieving bastard conceivable?
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!
