Scalebound. That open-world Star Wars game. SimsVille
The original concept for Bioshock infinite.
man, you just pissed me off reminding me of that game
I miss firefall. It was very innovative and enormous. The devs were trying new ideas in the alpha all the time.
I never played that game, but I was about to… I literally installed it, but didn’t play it, and it got canceled and shut down very shortly after. (I was a bit out of the loop, I guess)
I still have it late in my Steam library, so I think about it a decent bit
Dota Underlords
The Original Lawn Darts. Life is no fun without a bit of risk.
EverQuest next
Are you playing Pantheon?
I’m not familiar, I was really hopeful for a lot of systems that were described in EQN
You might enjoy it - it feels like a successor to the first EQ: https://www.pantheonmmo.com/
Any sort of sequel to the Tribes series. Talk about a franchise that had, at one point, a massive amount of potential that was completely squandered!
It has momentum (the franchise, not just the gameplay mechanic. Lol) and the visuals and world lended itself to be turned into something with great storytelling of they really wanted to make it into a story as well. Plus, it was fun a hell!
Ascend is technically still online, but any sequel that gets “announced” every one in a while is a lost cause from the start
Prey 2
The Cycle: Frontier. It was a pvpve extraction shooter that had such potential. Struggled to keep cheaters at bay, but it felt like they were making progress until one day they announced they were shutting down. Every month or two someone in our group chat brings it up and we’re collectively sad that it’s gone.
Wildstar
The cancelled suite of Alternate Reality games.
Omfg…
Yesssssss. Our entire family loved The Dungeon so much. My father wrote a letter to the developers and got a response, with excited descriptions of upcoming games in the series that never came to be. The producer or developer, or whoever wrote him back was bragging about how the next game would have characters you could actually see while in combat! (E: referring to The Arena)
The Dungeon already sort of gave up on the original design. Philip Price wrote The City and the extension mechanism that things were supposed to plug into, but the new developers who finished The Dungeon didn’t use any of it. So it was a one-way trip… Except you couldn’t actually transfer characters, it was broken. :-/
Two come to mind. Hardware Rivals which I got for free on PSN ages ago. The other is Mass Effect 3 multiplayer. I think I was in top 100 N7 rank percentile at one point. I’ve never been good at a multiplayer game since.
K.O.L.M.
Evolve stage 2! Very fun and very unique game. Their battle pass monetization scheme fizzled out and they took down the servers. There may be some community run servers going, but getting onto them for a small player base that’s going to beat my ass just doesn’t seem worth.
