    Default Which genre needs to be exploited more?

    Yeah... when it comes to F2P or B2P games, which genre needs further exploiting?
    I, for one, am getting somewhat tired of Fantasy MMOs, seriously. In my opinion the one that needs some good exploiting is the Survival/Horror genre. I know some MMORPGs like Exanimus are in the works, but that one will be P2P, from what I know.

    What's your opinion on the subject?

    Horror ones, there are already some sci-fi's and ...a lot of asian oriental, and fantasy MMO's.

    And when I mean horror, I mean, actually SCARY. Creepy, and, sometimes "OMFG" * Falls off seat, terrified*...that kind of scary. Freaking red liquid flying out of bunnies everytime you hit them with a stick = not scary. I see what you did there Requiem, not clever, not scary.

    Yeah... Requiem went more towards Gore, instead of true Horror and the like.
    Scary looking creatures won't do it either, what they need is to make a game with a good feeling of dread, you know, with the right atmosphere. I think something with the mood of Fatal Frame would be nice enough, of course, with guns and stuff instead of cameras.

    I agree on the horror theme, but something ala chtulhu stories, SP 1 does a similar thing but I heard it's a typical korean grinder with just the "horror" theme and that's it, could be wrong tho

    but one thing they should STOP USING FOREVER it's both asian and anime kiddy ******ed style, I'm ****ing sick of those

    Horror MMORPG in a town that has lots of mist and its also a FPS, you can level up you can increase your skills defend mobs, add attribute points take cover behind walls and all that stuff but its a MMORPG...that would be epic.

    They should do a game with nowdays weapons... not swords, axes...bow and arrow..

    They should make a MMORPG with guns and bombs...

    Classes divided like Pistol user, Machinegun user, Shotgun user, rifle user, scout user....

    Definately an MMOFPS world, no futuristic crap, a modern or Civil war sensed one would be awesome, hell, WWII would do fine too.

    its not so much the anime look that get me. its the ones they make chibi such as ragnarok,trickster,flyff games make you look like your border line gay and a little boy.

    there needs to be more mmorpg's with traps like you fall in a whole with spike in it or some boulders come dropping on your head and kill you they dont put any traps in mmorpgs just bombs u can place. yea they are lacking on horror the most out of the mmorpg's. i want to see zombies and stuff like i seen on elder scrolls oblivion coming out of dark areas out of know where.

    I think it would be fun to have a game where the whole world is a city, and you have to fend for yourself against thugs, etc.

    I guess like CoH/CoV, but I've never played those games.

    That's actually the prob. a little more than half of the MMO makers don't try to make new type of MMOs. Instead of making a sci-fi MMO, comical MMO, or Urban themed MMO, and willing to attempt to make it 3D and fast-paced, all those MMO makers do, is keep making Fantasy MMOs that are all the same, have to play as either one color of human or a elf, and they always make it a point in click.

    Enough! We already have more crappy and grindy Fantasy MMOs than necessary. I feel like it's time for something new.

    A F2P hide and seek MMO.

    'Nuff Said.

    You all know that would pwn.

    Now, back to something serious.

    I'd like to see more in the Sci-Fi genre.

    Tabula Rasa was Aight, Anarchy online isn't worth it unless you buy the expansions, although, I played that for quite sometime.

    What would really make my day, a dystopian future cyberpunk MMO.

    I don't know why one doesn't exist yet. The concept is so simple it could pretty much work out.
