How many more years do you think Mabi has left?
Comments
Though I did say the game felt alive, player retention is an issue. I did leave the game for a while and am trying to get back into it. I feel like what we need isn't rehashed events and end game content. We need stuff for all players for anytime. The Mafia minigame was rather popular when it was released, and people can still play it anytime. Fiesta also allows players to play through old events. Stuff like that can be nice if people would actually do them.
TL;DR: The NA servers will last as long as there are enough people paying to not play and leave their character sitting AFK in Dunbarton/Belvast with the newest shiny things, and no longer than that. The KR/JP servers will hold out a few years longer than that.
What a coincidence! Me too! =P
Jokes aside, probably not any time soon.
Why's that? I mean I used to have hope for Peria Chronicles as well. But then the developers for that game went and confirmed it's going to be absolutely nothing like Mabinogi. Instead they said it would be more like Minecraft. So if Minecraft happens to be your thing then great I suppose.
So...I can't be a jack of all trades? PASS!!!
Mabinogi for lyfe!
YES THEY ARE. G21 is just down the road for KR and then eventually us. You are blatantly ignorant.
Watching the like alpha footage or w/e that was it looked like some kind of pokemon card game combat where you can run around and hit things. Honestly i haven't looked in to the game since that. All i know is its a sandbox game where you can create your own worlds, quests, minigames, etc.
Well I do know some people would say otherwise and feel fancy nice looking graphics are the most important thing when it comes to a game. But I personally feel like the gameplay is what truly matters most. Because in the 4 years between me quitting Mabinogi and eventually returning I played a bunch of different MMORPGs that ultimately didn't stick with. One of which being FFXIV which I feel is a great example here. It looks darn nice but the combat gets rather stale eventually and the whole being forced along a linear path throughout the game in terms of progression kills any sense of freedom. That and despite how nice it looks the amount of character customization options in that game are downright pitifully small. Add to that the fact that despite being a Pay to Play MMORPG they for some reason claim that implementing dying separate parts of an outfit would be impossible for them to implement. Even though an old game like Mabinogi has been doing it for a decade now.
Yes, and square enix is remaking FF7 by using the same game PS1 engine and hardware. Same with Tomb raider, its the same game engine, just better graphics. Sequels are like mods, but they are just tweaks to the engine. No money or time is needed to do any of this. Just make Mabi have a better engine and put in super-realistic graphics because graphics is the most important thing in any video game, just like The Order 1886. Best game ever, 10/10. DevCat is holding back and could have upgraded the game. Its as easy as pushing a button. Its like they hate the fans
</sarcasm>
I love the idea of a game you can build/player made quests etc, but the Kirana/card game thing.... Not happy. Like 1 to 2, and then 3 to 5. I'd like to see how divided that 1 to 5 is. The other categories don't bug me that much.
Could say similar for a lot of MMOs actually.
You can even find topics like this for ones with giant, thriving populations.
Gotta learn to appreciate what you have.

Holy **** Morb still exists!
The engine could probably use a bit of work. But I actually like the graphics as they are. No, they're not the super realistic, or high quality stuff you find in your state of the art FPS, but it doesn't need to be, even for 2017. One of the reasons I stopped playing RuneScape forever ago was because they started changing around the graphics. Of course, it wasn't the final nail on the coffin for me, but it was the start of things. What Mabinogi has for graphics is fine and works for them. Just give the engine the work it needs before we have to replace it and we'll be good.
