    Default Which gameplay system do YOU prefer?

    I wish there was a fast paced MMORPG that doesn't involve clicking to kill a fcking monster. I'm bored of this clicking on monsters to kill. I understand if it is an FPS but clicking on a monster is just boring. To sum it up no matter what every game does this besides warlord.

    Move to monster, click, wait 2 seconds, watch it die. Get a guest run to the spot, move to monster, click, wait 2 seconds *depends if it's a boss*, watch it die.

    2D game for example maple story. I could give 2 shits about the grind for you ignorant fools.

    If your an assassin then this is the gameplay.

    Jump, use L7, Jump use L7 run around jumping and using L7. Now if you PQ, run around killing monsters and getting the items required to pass to the next stage.

    Warrior.

    Move around use slash blast or power slash or w.e it's called.

    Now which would you prefer? Killing with buttons which is much easier and fun since we use the same formula in console games. Or would you prefer clicking and doing some dull gathering quest.

    Yes I know the grind in maple story is huge but I prefer fun over leveling fast. Yes I do find maple storys dull combat system FUN because I don't click and watch my guy attack, I have to make him attack.

    This is NOT a request thread. If you want to post some games I would like then sure go ahead. All I want is everyones opinion on what they prefer.

    I first I didn't mind the point and click (And watch your char hack and slash) but when you have played 60+mmos like that you grow really bored. I like games like lunia where you can't just click the monster and divert your eyes back to your pr0n magazine. You have to combo to kill the monsters and etc.

    I wish, I had the perfect cheesecake. Like, it would be so unimaginably good. The cheese cream would be done perfect, the crust would be perfect, and the toppings just right. My pants would explode with every damn bite.

    But I can't have everything, and posting a topic about it won't have it magically poof in front of me, if you get what I'm saying.

    I still didn't really understand your rant...are you complaining about point and click in GENERAL? Or just those games that bound AUTO ATTACK to your click? Like click once, and it'll attack. I personally think some sort of point and click is needed for all 3D/3rd POV games, simply because you're looking down at your character, not through him. This is just PC games, and the control and feel of a keyboard + mouse/through a keyboard + mouse is different from a controller.

    Because most MMORPGs I play/played, clicking is merely an action to properly choose your target. There are games that let you target the closest mob to you with a keyboard Button, but to properly choose your own target, you'd need to click. Still, to kill it you'll have to smash some buttons.

    The reason why MS doesn't have point and click, I think, is because it can't. It's a top and bottom, side to side, game interface, theres no third axis to that screen. You control movement with the arrow keys, because I doubt using the mouse to move around is productive. Most 3d MMORPG makes use of the mouse to control the camera, therefore they just make more use out of it.

    Well..with that said, most of the new generation of western MMORPGs aren't just simply point and click. You might need to get yourself out of that asian market, because in Asia, gamers just need to play and endorse themselves in a game. TO them, point and click is like..home, it's natural.

    There's LOS issues in WoW where you can maneuver your character around a spell, and new combat systems are coming out for other games like WAR/AoC/GnH.

    Also, I seriously can't think of a game where I just click a monster and "turn away" from the screen. I might not have played any of them...but I can't come up with any at the top of my head.

    not sure if you want a f2p or p2p game but here goes..

    phantasy star universe is probably the only or the first (i dunno) mmorpg game that it doesnt involve any clicking on any monster and wait for your character kills it, instead its wasd, you move around and press keys to attack monsters where the monster can dodge them and you can also dodge the monster's attacks even if its underground, in the air or in front of you and for guns, theres a 1st person mode where you can actually aim and shoot monsters in the air where its out of reach of shooting range in 3rd person mode.. theres more to it but i dont feel like adding more but heres the website if you're interested

    http://www.phantasystaruniverse.com/index.php

    if you dont want p2p then i suggest you try phantasy star blue burst, an older version of phantasy star online, its not as good as universe but its still unique and unlike the other rpgs, a little bit of searching on google can find you a pserver
