The real reason why Wildstar got shutdown

[neuronfly]

The cartoon graphics and horrible gameplay was the main downfall of this game. Both Wildstar and ESO launched in the game year of 2014 and now look at ESO... one of the most successful mmorpgs right now on the market while Wildstar bites the dust.

For any game to be successful in the market the gameplay has to be fun and the graphics has to be attractive. Wildstar had none of that. Thats why LOTRO and DDO were separated from Carbine studios and taken over by Standing stone games. Carbine doesn't know how to make good fun mmorpg.

If you think Wildstar was a good fun game then you have no idea what fun actually means. Go check out successful mmorpgs like FFXIV, ESO and WOW.

Agreed Marthuk

Yeah and Path of Exile was one of the greats too, now everyone is abandoning it as they screwed stuff up. Same with ESO. I keep hearing about it being too easy now and the less said about Blizzard the better. FFXIV though, i've played that since it's first version when it sucked. It's new version, A Realm Reborn thankfully is awesome.

Wildstars gameplay and graphics were some of the best along with its humor. OP was just trolling

are you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ joking? ESO is the most boring MMO on the market... Everyone knows Wildstar failed because it had one of the worst launches in mmo history that they couldnt recover from and they didnt fix the pvp so they lost all the pvp players, the PVE was targeted at hardcore players so casuals like yourself couldnt do anything so all that was left was hardcore pve players, that ended up slowly leaving the game after they beat all the content and by then the game was dying and no one was interested in coming back everyone went back to WoW, GW2 or FFXIV and had no reason to come back to wildstar. I had a blast at the start though funnest mmo i ever played.

Are you me? We should be friends.

I remember smashing my face against the first or second "dungeon" in this game a couple days after launch, it was difficult, and i think now, looking back, it was very bold of them to make the "casual" PVE content so hard when the competitors at the time had devolved to be brainless slogs, i used to enjoy games like wow, but i literally no joke fall asleep during dungeons because they are so uninteresting, easy and boring.

I tried ESO for a brief hour, wasnt very impressed by that..

I had a really great time in this game, being forced to coordinate disarms and interrups with my party in one of the first dungeons in the entire game.

This game deserved a lot better for its fate. But business practices though destroyed all its potential(plus lack of funding meaning they couldn't negotiate better terms....). It is super sad because I actually really liked this game and it seems a lot more as well. I hope someone picks it up for real.

I disagree. IMHO it was the fact that Wildstar was a totally new ip. For me Wildstar was with its F2P launch/state of game the way better MMO if you compare the both. I loved the caroonish style...

ESO is for brain dead Skyrim fans.

[DirtyButCAT]

I wish all MMO's would just shut down just to find out what you anti-fun, ALL mmo hating naysayers would latch onto next to criticize.

[Odd-Ball]

I wish there was a way to get Wildstar back. I have a petition going, but that isn't likely to do anything. I have tried so many games to fill the void left by Wildstar and nothing has come close. Every time I try a new game, it just makes me miss Wildstar even more.

Different gameplay and different mood - sort of - but have you ever played Anarchy Online?

[ClauTau]

In a world where the extremely successful WoW exists, saying that the downfall of WildStar was in any capacity due to ''muh cartoons graphics'' is kinda goofy, ngl.

"The cartoon graphics and horrible gameplay was the main downfall of this game"

I read this one sentence and I can already tell you don't know what your talking about lol

[c0nan666]

cartoon graphics and horrible game play, plays wow lul.

[Omikonz]

I play ESO still but to say that WS looked and played horrible? YOu are dead wrong. I will say the PvP was terrible but the rest was A LOT of fun plus the graphics were great.
