Kira, the assets used in this game are from the Epic Games MOBA Paragon. The game closed years ago and Epic released all the models for free. The guy floating from the sky was a character named Gideon.

Thank you for the point about balance. Cryptobros don't even care about potential bugs in code, so I think it's a bit overkill to use them as an example. There's plenty of more reasonable people still forgetting about basic game development problems, and it's always good to remind people that most simple "solutions" haven't been implemented for good reasons.

2:10 that's what happens when you are only using free animations and character models. It was all in the free of the month in unreals marketplace

I think kira gave me addiction to watching bad Kickstarter games

Kick-starting a MMO is like trying to Kickstartng a car company from scratch.

I did in fact ever dreamed done did I.

I read a article yesterday where Microsoft said that big games that are released today can take up to 4-6 years to develop, and when it comes to mmorpgs i think it´s safe to assume that you need a group of 100 people working on it daily as a minimum, so if a kickstarter claims that they want to make a great mmorpg then one should first look up how many people the kickstarter group have that works on the project, will the money they want from us be enough to pay salary to all the people working on the project which will most likely take 4-6 years which i doubt in most cases. As a comparison i did some looking around and a game like Cyberpunk 2077 had around 500 people working on it and it took them around 8 years and even then the release was a disaster, and Grand Theft Auto 5 according to wiki had about 1000 people working on it for 3 years. So i think it´s safe to assume that when a group on kickstarter wants our money to make a big game and they at the start don´t have alot of people already working on it, then the game will either fail, take a lifetime to complete or it´s just a pure scam.

I don't know why I suddenly have the urge to try to build an MMO despite having no experience and no idea what it would be about.

in the trailer they are using assets from the game paragon that went under, the team gave out all the models, animations, textures, music, etc... out for free so the kickstarter didn't make anything really. The character from paragon is Revenant and the skin is the Raven Quill. Also Gideon from paragon as well

"Testing of wits!" Me: I'm not backing this. I think I pass the "testing."

Kira woke up and chose violence.

Kira missed the best part of the Uzem pitch : "hosted by Roblox". Always the sign of a quality, professional effort.

3:33 AI Generated UI elements. A human did not come up with that. Actually a zero effort scam.

You know its over as soon as there is a spelling error in the trailer

"Testing your wit, testing your credulity and testing your ability to tolerate cheap renders bought on generic asset sites." - Nervis Studios. Well the name of the studio is accurate, if I released a trailer this bad I'd be 'nervis' too.

I'm so pissed that I've been hoodwinked by other games for so long. I didn't even know I was playing games with untwisted dungeons but I should be playing games that have twisted dungeons now?

1:12 not strength, strengh

No, they shouldn't die, they should continue existing to offer us some free laughs occasionally.

I'd like to see an mmorpg where you can only use talk to text to give your character actions to do. That would be a unique kind of gameplay expecially when in a voice call with friends. :)

I don't have a problem with dreaming big. The hard part is starting small and learning how to succeed.

If this was an application as resume for programming, maybe it would have merit. Unfortunately as a kickstarter its nearly a condemnation of their own product.

Even $10 million would not even be enough for a modern MMO.

It is possible. You just need to make the project to be less ambitious on the graphic or the open world, and focus more on the server maintaince. In MMO, the most important aspect is a stable and full function server.

That guy was just float and start throwing SnowBalls. 😂

What do you think of Book of Travels? Not a traditional mmo which is maybe why they actually could release it

the blatant misspell in the trailer did it for me

That bar. I think that bar is a meter, without the measurement lines. A health meter.

People just don't understand that it is very easy to spot asset flip floppers, what surprises me the most is that there are people who would back those with a lot of money. Insane!

That limp noodled mage looks like the asset for the Gideon hero from the failed MOBA Paragon

Holy blast from the past with the mention of Adventure Quest. Never did play Worlds

The budget for the first game explains everything!!! You closed out right as you hit the best part of the kickstarter. @6:25 seriously check it out, reads like greentext went to the kickstarter.. the risks.. chef's kiss

You are gonna play throne and liberty and you are gonna like it. -NCSoft.

This is such a trainwreck of a genre. Like holy shit when you think it's at its bottom it just falls down even more Please make this the "bitch about MMOs"-channel btw. I definitely think there's a market for that considering its state

I always wanted to test my strengh in a game

This just reminds me of looking through guild adverts in mmos lol, just unmitigated garbage everywhere.

At the recent Wholesome Games Direct stream one of the projects was a Kickstarter MMo and I felt so bad for those people. Like, please consider reducing your ambitions a little and maybe making it a multiplayer game where people host their own servers or something. At least that's doable.

"Dreamers should give up." **ad**

You missed the best part @Kira !! at 6:26 the game is hosted on roblox server. Its all just a mod? xD

An mmo being developped in a year in a half isnt impossible. DAoC had a great 1.0 release after exactly a year and a half of development on a shoestring budget. But that was 20 years ago. It also wasnt a kickstarter mmo. Still its not impossible if scope is realistic and management is compotent.
