MMORPG's (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games) zijn op het moment erg populair. Everquest, Asheron's Call (2), Dark Age of Camelot en nog een handje vol van die spellen worden nog dagelijks door duizenden mensen gespeeld. Een hele tijd zijn er geen nieuwe MMORPG's meer uitgekomen, maar sinds Asheron's Call 2 gaat daar weer verandering in komen, er zijn nu al tientallen MMORPG's aangekondigd die door de makers helemaal de hemel in worden geprezen.
Maar om nou al die spellen tegelijk te spelen is onmogelijk en kost je ook nog eens handen vol geld. Daarom was mijn idee dit topic, hierin kan je discussieren over de aankomende MMORPG's, waarom je juist die ene zo graag wil gaan spelen, welke het volgens jou helemaal gaat maken, hier kan je informatie geven of vragen en kan je je verwachtingen geven over de spellen. Uiteraard heb ik liever geen geflame en getroll, dus laat dat aub buiten wegen
Hieronder volgen de drie meest verwachte MMORPG's in alfabetische volgorde, dit is dus niet mijn persoonlijke top drie of iets dergelijks. Omdat er zoveel spellen zijn aangekondigd heb ik maar gekozen voor drie spellen, misschien vinden mensen het leuk om nog meer van dit soort posts te maken zodat mensen een beter beeld krijgen van de spellen.

[b]• Dragon Empires
| In Dragon Empires you group with friends into clans and compete for the ownership of the 50 cities scattered throughout the world. As you grow your empire you tax the cities you own, foster trade and a strong economy and keep would-be rivals from challenging your position. With luck player-merchants will flock to you and make you rich. But be careful! Should you fail to win support for your city and to appease the Dragon in the empire you dwell you will find your city becoming unstable and ripe for conquest. Other clans will be lining up to challenge your ownership, wanting a piece of the wealth themselves. Dragon Empires combines a state of the art graphics engines with detailed gameplay to provide an involving and extremely interactive game experience. Players can chose to trade goods, manufacture items, fight monsters, each other or other clans. Will you be a devious merchant, struggling for economic dominance, or will you be a bounty hunter, removing the threat of evil from the land. Or perhaps you will simply make a living trading goods between cities. These are some of the choices you are free to make! |
| Game Features: • Player-controlled towns and cities. • Engaging political system based around supporting friendly clans and undermining your enemies. • Detailed economic model where prices (and profits) fluctuate according to player actions. • Full clan system including message boards, ranks, titles and crests. • Skill-based character progression allowing infinite customisation and the ability to change career paths. • Expansive manufacturing system with automation taking the drudgery out of making goods. • The ability to enchant or enhance player-made items. • Private housing and clan buildings that you and your friends can enjoy, decorate and duel in. • Full weather model over gorgeous terrain resulting in tropical rainstorms, lightning, thunder, wind and snow. |
