I personally see no negative connotation with mmos in general. I absolutely love that PoE will finally have proper questing.

not yet.

That just further supports my point yo. Before there is no deterministic crafting. And now there is. Straight copy WoW bros.

So what if it is going MMORPG?

Why cannnot it be both MMORPG and ARPG?

I am someone who loves D2 as well as Silkroad online or WOW. I have never managed to find a game that satisfies both ARPG and MMORPG personalities inside me. Now there finally! We only stand to gain not lose with this patch. Even if you hate MMORPG, the ARPG part of it will still stay for you.

Look dude. My dog has physically abused me for 5 years now. Not sure why I'm sharing this here since this is a very private matter.

But anyway, right before he starts whipping me with a spork he always whispers into my ear "MMOs are bad, mmmkay". Really taken a toll on me. Plus I've watched that Make Love Not Warcraft episode. I am convinced that anything related to MMOs are "bad mmmkay".

Do you need a hug :(

Slowly but surely they will change it to MMORPG with every expansion. You know they have to make money so they have to cater to casuals.

Players in this game use a mouse and keyboard. Guess what WoW players use! OH MY GOD.

I'm so done with this game...

Yup me too dude. Frankly we should've see this coming.

This reminds me of the time when they decided to include dungeon crawling elements and loot progression in Diablo 1.

Was disgusted to see them corrupting an amazing ARPG concept with MMORPG crap.

HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT THAT'S EXACTLY HOW MY DOG ABUSES ME

In all seriousness, other than the multiplayer aspect and daily quests, these types of things (in the expansion) have always been what I would consider RPG elements. I skimmed through at first, but my first thought was "RPG".

Although I am not an MMO player so I guess I see it through a different perspective. And they are called MMORPGs for a reason I suppose.

OHHHHH NOOOOO.This game have housing now just like WOW !!! This game is dead :/

So now that poe is branching out, i'd really like to see some proper quests that arent just "kill this guy". Probably never gonna happen in an arpg, but with ggg you can always hope. :p
(On the other hand: pillars of eternity isnt far away anymore)

Now that you mention it I think it's actually quite hard for ARPGs to have missions that AREN'T of the "kill this guy" type.

Sure there are fetch quests but what fun are they?

Yeah, people need to get rid of their mmorpgphobia.
