None of the features presented so far really matter to me. None of these mean staying power.
The only factor for any MMO that hopes to achieve greatness - is the reintroduction of a power curve.

Honestly if they didn't present a single graphic, gameplay footage, or gimmicky feature and instead had a single quote about commitment to allowing great players to have great power again - I would be a lot more excited. This above all else is what EQ lost so many years ago.

Idk maybe eqn forums are too advanced for me to understand. I said the ffa trinity shit needs to be polled because the FFA sytem is fucking shit and the poll will prove it. And I got like 8 thumbs down and called a fanboi... but got another point lol. score.

I bet most people like Holy Trinity. The large majority are DPS and like that they can just sit back spamming spells while they jerk off. Heaven forbid they actually have to have a fucking pulse to be successful at raiding.

but now with facial recognition, you'll be able to see players making jerk off faces while raiding.
Revolutionary mmo design. INNOVATION.

SoEmote and facial expressions are great for RP'ing, which still garners a rather large part of the MMO community. Only reason I log into LoTRO anymore is to satisfy the RP itch from time to time which it does better than any other MMO.

They've said that if you want to tank, you can tank. They just want there to be tactics available so a tank or any other role isn't absolutely necessary all the time.

It sounded to me more that you can't tank. That their super-duper advanced AI means there's no aggro, and therefore no tanking.

Have they said anything else about the trinity yet?

They didn't say they're completely getting rid of it, but they just said the roles aren't as important.. that could mean a whole mess of things. If they're pulling a GW2 then fuck that noise, but if there are still tanks and healers and a system that allows pretty much anyone to be a tank or healer then that's fine with me. I can't see them completely getting rid of the trinity and having 40 classes. It just doesn't make sense.

Only what's been said in the class panel.

They've said there won't be aggro meters, etc. So I don't think there's going to be an MT or anything like that. But they've said if you want to play a Defensive class, there will be options to defend you buddies.

There is tanking, but they clearly don't mean that in the traditional sense. Aggro is an awful mechanic used as a crutch for weak AI. If there is some degree of tanking using advanced utility skills or other metrics besides an aggro table I would consider that a step forward in the genre.

If you can't aggro a mob though, how in the hell do you defend anyone? Is it going to be like what someone said where you see the mob charging the ranged DPS and you jump in front? That sounds like it'll be super fun until about the 2nd time you have to do it.

When mobs die in 2 seconds and do no damage... You don't need to tank... Play GW2!?
