The Warhammer MMO Is Coming…

Honestly, I would want it to be 40k since we already had Warhammer fantasy MMO.

Whenever I hear news about a new MMO I weep inside. The genre is dead and we all know it.

All of the games this man has been involved with have been some of the most fun I've ever had in MMO's, it's the publishers that always turn them into MTX hell, trying to milk every last drop of money.

Im still kinda salty about Darktide cause IT WASNT AN EARLY ACCESS, it was a full release and was objectively a worse optimized and with less content product than their Vermitide 2 release which ALSO was a mess at the time.

The fumble from Fatshak was monumental, they could have enjoyed the success Space Marine 2 is enjoying but they absolutely f-ed up with no excuse at all cause this was their 3rd 4 player coop horde shooter.

The board was set, they had the pieces and they absolutely threw the whole table across the room. It has taken them 2 years to make a game that is an actual evolution of their "formula" and not a step back. They've done the bare mininum so far.

pls don't be age of sigmar.

i think if it's more shooty shooty war hammer mmo, then it could be great : p there is a gap in the mmo market for a game like defiance lol.

100% the idea of the game sounds waaaaaaaaaaay better than whatever they're going to implement in the next 5-10 years.

People referring to New World when it comes to a "buy once" business model when like.. GW2 exists

Games made for everyone suck. If you make a game that the husband with 5 kids, 2 wives, 14 jobs and 17 mistresses with 1 hour a week to play can enjoy it, it just doesnt measure up.

Bro total war is a good franchise...

ptsd flashbacks coming back...

We need another PlanetSide style game

another one?

Wokehammer 40K

İf nexon is doing aos then jack is doing 40k prolly coz old world isnt the focus anymore

just remake the age of reckoning

you forgot to put in the title which warhammer, 40k ? without 40k we assume you mean the fantasy warhammer, which is honestly exactly world of warcraft essentially, how would they make it feel unique i wonder, let us play as chaos/demons etc? introduce tyranids early as non cannon playable race or something?
i do want ue5 games as i generally feel that is a superior engine to unity so im glad more games are going ue5, as long as its not due to lack of talent. if its 40k how will they do legions, space and multiple planets while keeping it as an mmo which is traditionally very much open world because anything else would be quite low quality. Henry Cavill is fighting for the ip to not go woke and the show thing got canceled because of this. So hopefully no female castodes, and they give us a proper real time combat open world and battle sisters faction without any woke propaganda agenda nonsense.

Has the downfall of New World really been about their monetization or was it the game? Seems like it was the game. They kept changing things and revamping things. It never really had an identity despite it having a lot of good pieces. The bookend to that game was what you mentioned...Neverwinter. That game was so fun. The classes and dungeons were so well done. I really loved that game but the monetization absolutely killed it for me.

I was never a fan of the whole F2P/cash shop nonsense but at the time of Neverwinter I was still at least curious enough to be open minded about it and give it a fair shot. However, it ended up calcifying my feelings on F2P/MTX type gameplay as the toxic, predatory garbage that it still is today. I still avoid it as much as possible. The only exception I have found is PoE and despite that being pretty good I still find it over the top and obnoxious.

So in summation...a good game can still be ruined with poor monetization but good monetization will not make up for a poor game.

Wake me up when there's a 40k MMO

or any sci-fi MMO that isn't EVE or Star Trek

I love warhammer and mmos but this is hardly anything to be excited for at this stage.

i can't imagine a warhammer game with out pvp.

hope we can choose what faction we want to play.

You must have been under a rock for warhammer online 🤦🏻‍♂️ literally still extremely popular.

Fantastic video. I don't know that I have high hopes just given concerns primarily about monetization but the recent run of good Warhammer Games (perhaps starting all the way back with vermintide 2) has me hopeful they'll be more careful with their IP. We will see!

Also has me wondering about going and trying to play albion as purely pve player and see how viable it is.

Pretty sure I'm the only one that called Space Marine 2 terrible, idk how yall thought that was a fun game.

New Studio making an MMO riding of the name of the CEO. Where have a I heard this over and over and over and over. I'm sure THIS time it won't be cancelled or a scam, or a massive departure from the advertisement, or sold off to another studio to finish and be released with insane P2W.

It's a mobile game

PvP is like the soul of warhammer, having someone directing an entire mmo that, explained in his own words, clearly does not understand how pvp appeals to people, makes this sound pretty doomed to me.

nah i want a 40k mmo all the way love to play a sci-fi mmo is where it is at still yet to find a mmo with guns that runs like wow.

Focus on Questing and main story line doesnt sound like an mmorpg to me.

Warhammer online return of reckoning forever!

I love MMO's in general, but practically everything out there feels like it's made as a way to maximize how much money they can get from you rather than being made with a focus on just being a good, fun game. It's not only hoping for a good game now, it's hoping it's both good and that I can afford to play it in a way that it's still fun.

Honestly, I would be very disappointed if it was a Warhammer fantasy MMO. This might seem too mean in some way to fans of the Warhammer fantasy side, but Warhammer fantasy had its shot in an MMO setting. It's time to bring 40k into the MMO space, where I think it would fit amazingly. There are so many things you could do with it. You could do a what-if time line where the big E rezs, most of the still living primarchs come back to their chapter worlds or holy terra. big E gives them more gene-seed, suspends the codex Astartes, permits them to mass recruit, and make them all primaris. This would explain the giant boost of space marines popping up, giving players the power fantasy as well. That could prompt the growth of chaos space marines by having them steal gene-seed since there's so much more around. Giving them options to go with a PvPvE type of MMO with PvP war worlds.

The example he gives of the 'orc tribe in the hills' completely leans toward fantasy Warhammer.

If they don't even know whether they want to do Warhammer Fantasy or Warhammer 40k, we can part ways for at least a few years...

They should know better than trying to make an age of sigmar mmo. That will fail before launching

I think the biggest issue as to why they don't do Age to Sigmar is because theres so many fantasy MMORPGS out there right now that it would be so hard to really separate their IP from the rest without taking major risks. I think for majority of people who know of the IP they know it for the grim dark nature of it, the Space Marines the heavy armor/big aliens and such. I think it'd be a lot easier to bring in a new market of people who'd enjoy more of the 40k universe and have story/piggy back off Space marines 2/darktides success. Not saying age of sigmar can't be done i just think it comes with a ton of risks in todays gaming market.

Jack Emmert has a habit of shining up the turds he turns out. None of the games he has worked on have been good. They have fans yes but they are almost always terrible

City of heroes, is a piece of shit MMO.
Anyone who played it and is an honest person.
Can't disagree.
SO in saying that.
This new MMO is gunna be absolute shit.

the warhammer MMO came and went like 15 years ago. It was crap. I'd love to say Im excited, but... we will have to see it.

plz be Fantasy, i need to play as a skaven in an mmo.

I hope it's AOS and not the old world. I want to be a nighthaunt!

If it's Age of Sigmar, then no thanks...

This warhammer its my dream, probably 2026 or later

omfgggggg neverwinter was soooooooooooooooo p2w jfc, i was Crocodile on ps4 launch the #1 TR/PvPer in general and first to get Bloodthirsty title and bro LGPG could get away with murder simply bc they were a guild of all whales meanwhile the average players got screwed over, they even let them abuse a bug to get the Beholder mount which ruined the AH for awhile. the funniest part is they werent good at the game at all and the wildest part about that is the game was MAD EASY, i mean jfc you only had like 4 skills/buttons to use LOL. i was a whale and 4k capped out the gate but dude after seeing how the game would ban average players for minors things and just kiss up to LGPG i couldnt not to mention i had to go away for a month and in that timeframe they added ALL BOONS to the shop to just p2w after i had to grind them all out............... and ofc naturally everyone just did this, my last time on that game was slapping tf outta some other whales solo and selling all my gear or giving it to DarkRob, either way he got all my gear and money sent to him.

Probably warhammer fantasy...again...already enough of fantasy warhammer games.
