MMO Just Outdid Skyrim : V

» Mon Sep 10, 2012 3:52 pm

Okay, why does an MMO outdo Skyrim? I'm talk....Guild Wars 2. This is the system we should have in Skyrim, it's all about the skills you use, but updates the class system.

Your Skills are dependent on a Profession you chose and the weapons you are wielding, and Skills are dependent in dual wielding depending on which hand you're using your weapon.

-.-

I mean...come on Bethseda. People are out there updating MMOs and RPGs for a newer and better evolved generation. Why didn't you? There is so much customization character depth in GW2 is overwhelming. But it's still a lot of fun, a lot of experimentation to find out what you like.

I hate being shoehorned into a specific class. I prefer to define my character. So that's a thumbs down from me.

No, why? Because GW2 is an MMO, not a single player console action adventure RPG *slightly rpg*

MMO's are MMO's, console games are console games. If anything, maybe you should take this to the TES Online section, it mite be better off there.

You're never [censored] shoehorned into specific class. When you have a custom class, then the game adapts to that. I remember in Oblivion that they gave me an image of one of the default classes depending on what skills you chose. Easy for the program to adapt to this.

Let's say I made a custom Nightblade, the game goes this class is similiar to the "default" of these classes and these are the perks and skills, that I recommend as your starters.

In Oblivion you made your own classes. Just cause you couldn't make a good profession is your problem not the problem of others.

I always made my classes in Oblivion.

I know that's what I like. I was talking about Guild Wars 2, or any other RPG that has rigid class structure.

Um.... he was making a comment regarding the mmo idea, not saying the TES shoehorned you into anything..... Whoa Nellie.

Anywho, no. I like the fluidity of class creation and evolution in TES. It's not outdated nor does it need to be updated for a generation (though it already has been, note kill cams and improved combat attacks etc). MMO systems are made the way they are because of the online environment they live in. If you play TES and don't like the system compared to an MMO system that means you prefer one game over another.

I don't think Guild Wars 2 out-dos Skyrim but it is definitely a nice game to play along side. There are many things in Guild Wars 2 that I enjoy and I hope Bethesda draws inspiration from. I for one have been loving the oceans in Guild Wars 2. There is so much to explore; underwater cities filled with a Quaggan race that you can interact with, hidden caves, tons of corals and reefs to gaze at. The game is very beautiful.

Some people thought it needed to be updated. I like Oblivion's character customization.
