Some people today believe that terms change, for different games. I’ve been playing games since the late 70s and i’ve seen the start of the mmorpg era with games such as Avalon and the first ever full 3D MMORPG Meridian 59. MMORPGs are games like World of Warcraft, TERA Online, just to name a couple. Nothing more, nothing less.ĭebates on this topic have split the communities, but most people in general agree that games such as Path of Exiles (Basically a Diablo 2/3 clone), or Neverwinter Online, are not MMORPGs and will never be MMORPGS, for the reasons i mentioned above. Said games are just online multiplayer games. Neither of those two games are capable of doing just that. It is defined by how many people are able to interact with each other in the same open, world.Īn online game can be considered an MMO ONLY when each server can hold hundreds or thousands of players at the same time, capable of interacting with each other and the game world itself by way of grouping up with people you find out in the open world etc. Neverwinter is also a prime example of a lobby and instanced based online game that claims to be an MMORPG even though it lacks most of the main features of an MMORPG.Īn MMORPG is not defined by how many people that plays the game.
Yes, a lot of people do play the game on a daily basis, but even so, that is not enough to label it as an MMO or MMORPG. The games like TERA on this page focus on other MMO games with a similar combat system that requires you to be actively engaged with movement and attacks to overcome enemies.Problem with this list is that Path of Exiles is not an MMORPG, as it is completely void of any MMO feature. This combines with a large selection of races and classes which provide a diverse range of options for players to adopt a playstyle and strategy they enjoy. Instead players will have to aim and dodge attacks with their crosshair and careful character positioning. Set in the fantasy world where the titans of Arun and Shara roamed before sleeping to form the games continent players explore a world of fantasy with quests and challenges that have you fighting to defend those in need.įocused on an active style of combat players in TERA can't rely on automatic targeting for their attacks like other MMO titles. TERA (The Exile Realm of Arborea) is a MMO that first launched in the Korean market in 2011 as a paid title before eventually transitioning to a free to play model. Our compilation of games like TERA features other diverse 3D MMORPG adventures with strong active combat gameplay and fantasy themes.
