I do feel the early/mid 2000s was the like the Golden Era of MMOs. Then things kinda went south as the MMO space got oversaturated with WoW clones and F2Ps with P2W & cash shops proliferated. I played and trialed so many MMOs during that time. Chasing the proverbial dragon, but with MMOs!
And now we’re sorta going through a renaissance with MMOs, given the recent more high profile titles that have been released or are coming soon: New World, Lost Ark, T&L, Blue Protocol, etc.
But it remains to be seen if these games measure up. Still an exciting time though.
