I didn’t talk about this much because it’s an online ARPG rather than an MMO, but last winter, I spent a crapton of time playing Minecraft Dungeons with my son. And I freaking loved it. It’s especially funny for me since I have snubbed Minecraft in the past, but Dungeons hit that sweet spot on the simplicity spectrum. It’s got just enough to keep me clicking but not so much that I need to log out and read a wiki to stay alive. Plus it worked great on the Switch in multiplayer!
But now it has one big downside: It’s basically in maintenance mode. Microsoft’s teams aren’t working on it anymore, which is a huge shame because it got several seasons of new content and now it’s all just sitting there. I can’t bring myself to delete it because I had so much fun, but playing it also makes me feel sad, so it just stays in limbo.
Which MMOs make you feel sad? And why?
