I agree on a bith of both, this can be epic, question is how they will do it and until then we can only wait. However, it seems we got our self nitpicking cosmetics so far, like purity seals and the like, so i am already glad over the customization, it is going to may haps be pretty darn good.
something thats never been done. innovative. if people start saying "that new game coming out looks like an eternal crusade clone." this is an opportunity to make something unique and actually advance the art of video games. If we start calling it a wow clone or comparing it to PS2 isnt setting the bar very high, and probably a little insulting to the devs. I made myself sad that I voted on this poll. (still, discussion is good)
I'm not saying you want a WoW clone, I'm just using that as an example of some absurdly radical change that I could really never see happening. For example, I would not expect to see any sort of quest structure, or dedicated instances, or full skill trees, or crafting, or plot for that matter.
Why not both? An third person massive open world shooter with progression and maybe some operations to distract when you are tired of killing mon'keigh?
Yeah a bit of both, but with pvp>pve . Something like a mixture of Spacemarine and Defiance. Maybe some goal like in Exterminatus in Spacemarine or some little side Quests like Defiance.
There is indeed a 3rd option missing, WoW is too instanced, SWTOR was also a huge let down due to going the same root, it ceased to be an MMORPG and became a waiting room with a series of queues to get into instances (may as well have been Quake Rocket Arena). I'd like to have dungeons, quests and lots of other things, but mainly what I am looking for is a persistent open world PvP system (sure there can be instances and ranking table ect) and not have the game relegated to queues to get into death matches and capture the flag scenarios. you can contain different types of PvP within dungeons and zone borders but let's not instance it with a clock running and have people queue up and teleport into it from their inventory.
