| Zekkyou said: If that's enough to merit it being called an MMO, then pretty much every game that allows you to play online would be one :p I disagree though. A Pokemon MMO, if done properly, would be totally awesome ^^ It's not like the player have the physically battle within the core server world. Introducing a DF like system from FF14 would do functionally the same thing as what Pokemon does now. |
Eh... The extent of "MMO" content that I'd be fine with in a Pokemon game is what Destiny does, there areas have other players, but there are very few of them per area. In other words, take the "massive" out of it. And allow it to be optional, obviously. And they'd need the story to fit around it. Not everyone can be the hero and the champion. It would only work if they could still make it feel like you where the star of the game with out creating plot holes. If they could do it, I'm down.
What I really want is for them to take customization to the next level and allow players to be different age groups, specifically adults. It's not like they're completely against the idea either; Pokemon Battle Revolution let players play as adults. They can even have the story change slightly depending on your age. Nothing monumental; just enough that it makes sense. If you're 20 in the Pokemon world, you're probably living in your own house/appartment instead of with your mom. That kind of thing. I just really don't want to play as a kid anymore if they're going to let us customize our trainers. I don't want to customize what I looked like when I was 12.
That would lend so much more depth to such a vast open world. At this point, I'd even bet that most people who buy the Pokemon games are veterans. They don't need to make the games T or anything, but they can cater to us in those little ways.
