Sega announced today that Phantasy Star Online 2 has reached 1,000,000 registered users; an impressive accomplishment given the fact that the game has yet to be officailly released to Western audiences.
Some WoW-like MMORPGs are better than others. Here's a curated list that offers a wide variety of games that let you play with other people but have something unique to offer.
WoW is a mess and it will continue to be a mess. Still, the less-developed MMOs are going to have trouble gaining a fan base because they lack content right now. Even if people do flock to FF14 or BDO, they'll go back to WoW if they fix enough features or give players a shred of hope.
Blizzard is going through some stuff right now, and people are seeing the writing on the wall— World of Warcraft might not be the best game in which to invest your time at the moment.
Nah, I'll keep playing the game with the millions of other people. The writing on the wall says "game is not dead" even though people have claimed it is for 15 years.
I'd guess that people are going to filter out but then come back for the next expac when the turmoil is over. I do worry about content delays, though.
With the release of a global server, this MMORPG is available on PC and Xbox. However, does Phantasy Star Online 2 have cross-platform play?
Here, let me save you the click: "Yes, Phantasy Star Online 2 does support cross-platform play between Xbox One and PC"
Very nice with a western release + vita this will do very well. I played it up to level 30 odd but stopped so I can play the English version and actually know what's going on.
