Best Massively Multiplayer PvE Games on PC

Edited from original post where I said I loved this mmo.. it pains me that I have to change my review for this mmo but the devs are quieter than a mute and don’t answer nothing in forums and NO communication WHAT SO EVER!

SO! I now HATE this mmo, it’s awful… so much wrong with it, shyte jumping controls, auto AI response is a joke, dying in dungeons and being forced right back to the beginning where you have to collect all door keys again is a TROLLING JOKE! Bosses are so OP you cant even beat them with maxed out gear cos they ALL can one-shot death you, Fighting the boss.. get 1 or 2 adds on you and you might as well give up cos it’s a SURE death, which happens 90% of the time cos boss rooms are flooded with monsters along with the boss. Stats on gear don’t seem to do frak all, at lvl 30 with top end gear I was still only hitting into double digits, around 50-70 odd and criting for around 100-120 as a sword and shield user. SO glad I didnt sink money into this game at this stage, if things improve then I might return but as of now i’m not even gonna bother continuing.. shame really.

This game is adorable and excels at being fun. It is a little confusing at first. There seems to be a rock/paper/scissors element to combat. Which isn’t terrible, but might take some getting use to for some people. I don’t think a lot of people will end up enjoying this game (or play it in general). But it really grows on you as you play it.

I like the oddball nature of the Alice and Wonderland theme too. It is just a quirky element you don’t see too often. In a way it is a cozy game…just in a strange way.

I may like this game and keep grinding, if i am not a mage.

When it says on wiki mage deal massive damage in close range. close range is true, but massive damage? its unbelieveable painful for mage to fight bosses, even a knignt

invested in end stat can do better damage than mage.

And when this question have been bought, answer is mage have nice aoe abilities. But which classed dont have aoe abilities? And as a penalty, mage have very low defense and health

even, the so call “magic defense”, while 95% mobs in game are dealing physical damage. Mage already have the worest lv20 buff that the sole purpose is to turn magic defense into

UPDATE The developer already got back to me on Discord and helped me find a workaround (clicking the NPCs with broken quests instead of spacebar) so my quests are completed and the Dev said he will fix the spacebar issue on the next emergency update ^_^!

I do like this game and review positive, HOWEVER, I will be reevaluating this review due to a very concerning fact. Apparently some (recent?) update has caused glitches with newbie quests making them completely undoable if you complete the task prior to getting the quest. I really hope I don’t have to start grinding over on a new character to enjoy this game, sure i’ve only played 2 days but Id rather quit and play something else if that ends up being the case. I did submit the problem in their discord so we will see what happens. Will update later.

General War Memories

Great WWII strategy game. Maybe best game out there. Do not play. Vaccum sucking money game. Very bad instructions, very confusing steps in events. Everything is always YOUR fault you didn’t receive rewards for events (you didn’t spend enough money), you did not follow instructions, usually aren’t any, if there are confusing at the least. Do not care about game, only how much money they can get you to spend. Played the Vietnam version. Charged $100 US dollars. As I was spinning lucky slot machine for rewards (for the $100) game froze. Tried to reload game but it vanished like it never existed. Closed with no warning because they were not making enough money. May do same here.

The leveling experience in this game is amazing and very grinding. The problems starts the very moment you hit level 60. There is no end game content and what is available is absolutely broken. Bots, hackers , gold sellers and dupers have taken over this game several times and forced a very inexperienced Amazon staff to shut down trading and coin transfer several times for days on end. The economy is broken beyond repair and servers have died. The game started with close to 1 million players and now has about a quarter of that remaining.On a good day this game should be ftp at best. Don’t waste your money on this game just yet until amazon can prove to be good developers.

Do you really expect us to grind elite chest 500x harder now to acheive a higher gs when other acheived it 500x faster/easier? 25 days in and it’s hard to play any more.

Played enough to write an honest unbiased review. The game is p2w and heavily pay for convenience. Let me tell you why. Current max level in this game is 30, you get 3 bag SLOTS upon finishing all 3 quests, 1 per quest. If you take up crafting which is a must for endgame because you have to craft your gear to progress to the hardest dungeons - there goes damn near all your space right there from crafting materials. They force all these “extra” things that take up space down your throat in an attempt to force you to buy space. You may say, “well, what’s the harm in that? they have to make money somehow!?”

This is a pixel survival crafting RPG. It has quests, weapons, armour crafting, boss fights and zones with leveling segments.

I’ve played this game for just about two weeks now and I found the game to be endlessly frustrating. This game is quite boring. It has a never ending loop of the same music that plays on and on forever, only ever changing for boss fights and caves.

Most of the people in the game are quite friendly but unless you are max level, nobody will want to group up with you to do any of the mid-tier boss fights and dungeons. I found this to be quite annoying because certain quests cannot be turned in without completing them at least once.

Warhammer: Chaos And Conquest

edit: 12/25/2019

After 30+ days for me & hundreds of hours later this has shown itself to be entirely focused on the p2w players. All f2p mechanics are only in game to convince players to spend money somewhere down the road.

On Festus 4, the Steam server, many p2w players are now crying that the richest player on the server is a cheater because he spends more money than them and they say they are sending tickets to the Dev’s because its “not fair or fun”. Boo Hoo!! LoL.

These are the p2w players acting like this, aw shucks. I shed a tear, really.

First game to fly in the face of the Skull 4 the Skull throne event, since this has been running on steam, every warhammer based game has given away free or heavily discounted content expanding their game, this game decided to add a bundle which granted was worth it on heavy discount but also an event to “honour” the skull god by making the win only possible by spending large volumes of cash.

It flies in the face of the whole Skulls for the Skull Throne idea, you can’t point this out to the developers tho, like on their discord, or they threaten to mute you in the beginning the game was really good and not too cash grabby and the devs gave loads away for free to help the community, then the whales started crying about boredom cause they had bought their way to the top in a few short months and the devs answered this problem 1st by giving them pay events only they could win which increased in time and then merging servers to feed F2P players to the P2W folks for scores.

TERA - Action MMORPG

After playing this game for roughly 4-5 years I can honestly say it’s my go to MMO. My main is a reaper which I like the rotations and skills used, it’s a class I find more unique then most other games online. At 1st I had a lot grps complaining about my dmg and my rotations and I actually thought I was playing my class properly. Truthfully though, I did some research, looked up the skills and rotations and found out that other players were correct and I was actually a terrible reaper.

But after sometime, research and putting skills in the correct area of the tool bar, I got better, much better. The game itself in all the years it’s been around has improved in some areas, considering how it used to be when I 1st started to now, you can see the developers put sometime into it and made things for the better in TERA.

It’s going to be F2P next week, so there is actually no reason not to play it. It is, after all, the MMORPG with the best Combatsystem (and the most beautiful as well… especially the Castanics. If you know what I mean. ;) ).

It’s more like a Hack n Slash with one of the Melee Classes. lol.

I can only recommend checking it out if you are into MMORPGs.

/edit 06.02.2017

This recommendation is from January 2013, so take it with a grain of salt. I don’t know how it is now, what gameforge changed and if it’s good for those who play it without spending a dime.

Metin2

Metin2… Old korean grinding MMO. Only name of this game and soundtrack in first location “enter the east” fill my heart with warm. Yeah, it’s all about nostalgia. I still love this game through many years. But now, let’s be honest and write about this game objectively without good feelings. This game, perhaps, one of the worst game in MMO genre. Literally, pay 2 play system which kills all, absolutely terrible grinding (you will waste months and years to get to the top without donation), game also as many others suffer from cheaters. I don’t recommend this game to anyone, except entirely clear people who never play MMO and want to try. This game is ♥♥♥♥, yeah, but really simple to learn and this is single advantage of this game.

If you are looking at this game because you remember playing it a long time ago then let me save you the time. The game has barely changed since its peak days back in the mid to late 2000s. There is new items, the level cap is raised, Inflation hit this game economy hard, and there is a few new places but they are more like dt runs for higher level players… Nothing new worth coming back for….

IF YOU HAVEN’T PLAYED THE GAME BEFORE, READ THIS!

Great game, finding it really fun, don’t get why people are bashing it so hard when it isn’t even bad. Been doing events and raids with my friends daily and met new people. Most negative reviews are avg 1 hour of play time you can’t trust them, just give it shot but don’t just give up after 1-2 hours when you hit level 35+ you will be doing more content and even more with class change at 40 with more skills and a mastery tree, also hardly any ads at all, and the store is not needed I have gotten to level 49 so far without spending a penny.

Full disclosure: I have bought things to make my life easier in the game, but others that I’ve recruited have not and are doing just as well!

Lets get some things out of the way. This is:

An optional Auto-MMO [you can play it manually either here or on mobile]
A Gacha game
Has in-game purchases
Currency for said in-game purchases is EXPENSIVE as are the purchases themselves sometimes
A silly game, with an overly silly story
A game that actually lets you MAKE outfits and obtain rare cards though dungeons and events instead of hiding them solely behind Gacha. [This is a problem in other games, trust me]
