Do you have proof for this claim though? Like an article or a study or anything? Or is this all just your unfounded opinion? Where is the proof?
star wars galaxies - Servers back in the day had a Pretty nice and stable poppulation (500k if i remember Right)
after the NGE update (new game enhancement) the game got more focus on casuals, making everything easier, no more effort, makin it almost a singleplayer game… SERVERS DIED, and sony online entertaiment is nomore lol
the devs of sony even warnd other mmo devs to not repeat this mistake!!
world of warcraft - the original game design was focused on all types of players, casuals and hardcore players! over the years the devs did focus only on the lowest type of casual (the retard)
after some expansion blizzard did stop to give us population/sub numbers (guess why lol) and most of the servers (even if some of them say full or high pop) are freakin wastelands!
just wait for wow classic server launch! classic server population gonna explode and this will hopefully change the mmo market again!!
edit: forgot my first mmo, ultima online, the game became ■■■■ after they removed open pvp from the main world, sub numbers dropd and only private servers with the old version still have a nice population.
same story with runescape, albion and i guess there are alot of more games… im sick of it
btw there are alot of articles about this stuff and u can find it by just using google
hmm…wonder what you’ll think when you learn about PA then…
im sry, pa? the guys who did make black desert?
Pearl Abyss, the Korean games company that bought CCP games (makers of eve online) about 9 months ago.
edit: yes, they make black desert
well the only thing i know about them is that they did make the black desert mmo.
so what are u trying to tell me now?
You said you don’t like Asian MMOs and he made a joke that EVE is owned by a Korean MMO company.
When you talked about how it was better before they made changes, back in the day…
No, you have every right to ask. I can also tell my Grandfather how life in the 1940’s was so much better than it is now.
He will also call me an idiot…
I have no idea what your taking about. High sec PVP has changed very little since I started in 2008. The biggest change I can think of in the last 11 years is the crime watch thing and that just changed HOW to PvP in high Sec.
None of what you said has any connection to EVE Online. You’re just reciting a list of “here are some MMOs and some things that happened to them.” but you never once show any proof that the same thing will happen to EVE Online.
well than its a really bad/stupid joke because
i have nothing against korean/asian mmo companys
i just dont like the anime graphics/design thats all, the same reason i dont watch anime series or movies (with the exception of ghost in the shell, i liked this one)
That’s too bad… next year CCP will be selling Skins that will plaster big eyed, huge breasted, short skirt wearing girls all over your ship.
They will sell… many
all the games i listed dont have any connections with eachother but all had the same story/ending,… they lost a ton of players because changes that made it more casual friendly and boring
but well, just believe what u wanna believe i wont change that
DONT GIVE EM IDEAS!!!
Proof needed for this claim. You’re just spewing things out of your rear end again.
dude, are u a troll?
just use google!
well i even help the ‘‘special’’ children:
about swg:

https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/mtkjd/iama_former_soe_employee_that_worked_on_star_wars/
about runescape:
http://www.misplaceditems.com/rs_tools/graph/
u clearly see in the graph that Oldschool runescape got way more players than new runescape!! BUT WHY? the new runescape got way better graphics!?
i tell u why! BECAUSE THE GAME SUCKS NOW! all those casual friendly updates killed its population and made the game damn boring! a older game which is ugly as hell still beats its update and more pretty Version, because its a challenge, more social and fun!
about wow:
edit: do i really need to post much about wow? how can someone who is playing mmos does not know about its history? just wait 2months until classic server gets release and watch all those wow threads about retail wow is dead…, classic killed retail…., and so on!
want more?
edit: i did put some more links in
I just Googled “MMOs that died because they became too casual” and found nothing that supports your claim. Do you have a better search term or are you just making stuff up again?
ok,… u are just a troll…
lol i really thought u were stupid
The very article you linked says:
The reddit threat you link is basically some person’s opinion. And you still don’t show the connection between a random dude’s reddit post and whether or not that same fate will befall EVE Online.
dude i playd all of these games, and the Person who did make the YouTube Video on the reddit link is also a swg pre-cu player! just go on swgemu.com and ask the emu devs(all pre-cu players) who remake the game on the history of this game and if u dont believe em just ask the orginal devs!
raph koster(he did work on ultima too) was one of the orginal star wars galaxie devs! even he got a video about the mistakes they made with swg! maybe u believe him?
but u dont wanna even try to search up these things! u are just here to troll
I don’t care if you played all these games or not.
You still do not make the connection between those games and EVE Online. What proof do you have that the same things that happened to those games will happen to EVE Online?
Please stop dodging the question.
