Why oh why do devs want to destroy perfectly awesome single player rpg franchises by turning them into cruddy mmos?

RIP KOTOR, you can be buried next to Phantasy Star.

[Human Snorenado]

RAISE YOUR JEDI'S LEVELS BY GRINDING SAND PEOPLE, SELL OFF THE LEWT TO GET PHAT NEW GEAR HYUCK HYUCK HYUCK

[Howard Alan Treesong]

yeah can you believe Sony was working on God of War III

this industry is full of surprises

[Fresh Prince]

At least it won't be a LOTR/D&D shit based MMO.

At least Phantasy Star Online/Universe had a single-player option.

Is it too much to ask for KOTOR III OFFLINE?

I guess it is.

YOU WILL PAY YOUR $15 A MONTH TO LEVEL YOUR PADAWAN UP FIGHTING KILLER DROIDS AND YOU'LL LIKE IT MR.!

Also, PSO/U single player was fucking terrible.  Fuck Sega, I will never, EVER forgive them for imploding like they did.  Sigh.

Like hell I will. I detest MMOs for their monthly fees. I've already shelled out my hard earned money to buy your game, now you're telling me I have to pay MORE each month to actually play it? Fuck that.

Well, you're one of the enlightened few then.  All of these assburgers run around the forum acting like WoW is an actual game instead of a chat client with a pretty GUI for social distinguished mentally-challenged fellows that don't have actual friends.  Oh, and they sit around playing it until they get gout.  Yup, GOUT.  Haha bastards, mmorpgs are not games.

Never played or paid for an MMO and never will!!

 

[Bocsius]

Single player or bust.

Probably bust.

[Grecco]

It would be really neat if it was Guildwars esque instead of Wow esue. (Chance of single player).But EAs obsession with the great mmo egg will probably stop that.

  Me either dude, let's get naked.

[abrader]

KOTOR - sucks

KOTOR II - sucks

KOTORO online - little chance of not sucking

[Bildi]

KOTOR?  MMO?  Bioware?

[Van Cruncheon]

after jade empire and mass effect, bioware is about as relevant to quality gaming as nintendo

although i will kinda resent the amount of time gaming podcasts will spend discussing this artistically unambitious and mechanically compromised mmo

on the other hand, these gaming podcasts give airtime to developer apologism of the most lugubrious order, so maybe this will be an improvement

oh, like i care

[pilonv1]

i would pay $20 a month to be able to grind "destroy droid"

[duckman2000]

Star Wars

That's like every mmo ever.
