Holy hell I don’t wanna get into this but.. Here we go!

It started off as a decent mmorpg with group grinding as the main aspect, there was actual roles similar to dungeon/raid roles nowadays but for open world PVE(which wasn’t unique but still a rare feature in 2000s and still is).

This super social mmorpg with facets such as haggling, almost infinite WPVP(including your own faction, if you are willing to live as a deserter for some time), group pve whether you decide to level, hunt bosses or do dungeons, niche jobs/rps like potion merchants and many more decided to take a 180 degree turn, resulting in catastrophe.

Long story short the game has been single player exclusive P2W haven for many years and I believe they will keep it that way, this game is objectively garbage with 0 qualities and there is no arguments to justify playing it unless you’re wearing nostalgia blinders.

I’m adding a +1 to my rating because my judgement is clouded from nostalgia.(Would’ve rate the game 3.5 stars if this review was made in 2010)

Might be the most underrated game of all time

Bruh this game is objectively pathetic, its as petty as p2w korean/chinese rpgs like lost ark

They are solely using this game to expand lore at this point, wouldve made it 2 stars if it was pure gameplay

Shouldntve been mobile exclusive

I still find it enjoyable after all these years, would make it a 5 star if the game had less microtransactions and more chat options.

Best idle game imo, there are several rpg idle games but none of them are close to glory of Melvor Idle

Ive been an rpg nerd since 2000s and this game takes the cake. It is not the "best" series(TES probably is) neither an a mmorpg but as its own, its definitely one of the best RPGs ever made
