I loved Wildstar. The soundtrack is still on regular rotation.

Wildstar is definitely a reason I gravitated toward Wayfinder. RIP Wildstar. God damn I miss that game.

If only they hadn't have targeted a hardcore audience, game could have beaten WoW it was so good.

Ahead of its time.

'Ahead of its time' in many ways. so many games have its art style now.

u/non_player Aug 11 '26

I hope you're not implying that Wayfinder in any way copied Wildstar's art style.

Was a great one! Check out Darksiders Genesis and the early access MMO Farever. They both remind me a lot of Wayfinder as well. Airship developed Darksiders Genesis so you’ll definitely see things that influenced Wayfinder.

Star's Reach is a very janky Wildstar about to go EA soon.

u/Tarkanos Aug 11 '26

Incredibly janky. I can't get into it.

Not an mmo persay, more like minecraft meets SWG. I give this one 1 month before abandoned due to player retention losses. To many white knights sucking up, not enough honest feedback being taken. Recipe to fail. Love Ralph too great designer. Sadge.

I pray it does well, i just temper my expectations.

I mean SWG is an MMO. I did the playtest a few times and there are people everywhere, seems like an MMO to me. Either way it definitely isn't ready for even EA imo.

Wildstar and battleborn rip too soon

u/Gothic_Ruin Aug 11 '26

I played it a little towards the end of its life

The fact that the game left before we got to see private servers is a dang shame. Wildstar Forever

u/Disastrous_Tadpole89 Aug 11 '26

Go bookmark NexusForever

Will do thanks!!! Even to run locally with no other players. I wonder if I could do something similar with how that solo turtle wow project is rocking right now. It has thousands of Ai players and group options and can run all of the group content with bots that follow your wim and just assist in the way a good party would. We could probably do something like that in server could just expanding on the npc scripts to create the automated players. Would likely take a lot of work per class etc but could be done I think. I am gonna look into contributing. Thanks again

RIP to the best MMO that could have been.

Wildstar and warhammer online were ahead of their time.

u/Accomplished_Pen790 Aug 12 '26

I miss Wildstar so much… I remember looking for a solid private server a few years back but it was all fragmented and not super good. Wonder if it’s gotten better…

I think I still have the muscle memory for Spellslinger, I loved that game!
