Thread: I want a game with in-depth character creation that provides the opportunity to look unique in a vast online multiplayer experience. I want multiple interesting skill paths. It doesn't have to be infinite, but give me a real choice.

I want an open world that allows me to explore but has consequences if I stray too far from the safe areas. I want content for both playing solo or with others. I want visceral and engaging combat that feels weighty and important. I want loot. Lots and lots of loot.

I feel like a lot of this was promised with WOW, Fallout, Elder Scrolls and many others, but none have yet to deliver. It seems many developers have regressed into fewer choices and barriers that limit a player's experience.

Maybe I have simply outgrown the target market for game developers. Most high quality developers now seem to focus on mobile games rather than big, weighty, expansive pc multiplayer games.

I'm looking forward to Cyberpunk 2077. But I feel it too will be a let down. The character creation looks to be robust, but there are only three build paths. So, my hopes and expectations are set exceedingly low.

At this point, I think I have given up on finding an MMORPG with the combat of POE, the character creation of BDO, and the ease of use of WOW. Seems that game will just never get made. End Thread/Rant
