Why do Developers hate RPGs, even some former gods of the RPG Realm

[Failedlegend]

They've done it again

Syndicate (Strategy?Action RPG?..hard to classify) ---> FPS


WHY??

It can't be brand recognition cause like I said early anyone who recognizes the brand is either going to be ****ed if their fans of the game or turned off if they didn't like the first game....all I see in that is loss...no gain.

Also why would you make them into FPS/MMOs those are the two hardest genres to make any money in since your NOT CoD/Halo or WoW




Side Note: Honestly I'd hate MMOs less if the following happened

A) They weren't almost all clones of WoW which really isn't a good template to begin with

B) More of them adopted the Premium (A-La-Carte) style of DDO without adopting the Pay2Win style of some "other" MMOs.

C) Don't take it from a pre-existing series (ie. Why use KOTOR just use Star Wars or Why put the FF MMOs in the numbered series)

D) Things you do actually accomplishes something this is one thing I liked about wow is the instanced quest lines where when you blew up a city it was actually blown up for you. Korthos Island does this in a minor way as well with the Snow.


Alternatively just make a regular RPG give it a chat box and keep it constantly updated with DLC...you get your CoT (Cash over time) and your game isn't ****. It's win win.
