Just About The Worst RPG I've Played

[TheoreticalExistence]

I want to believe you’re a troll so badly and I hope you are, because you’d have to be lacking all higher functions to even seriously say that first line.
I’m bored so I’ll go ahead with this.

@taxiraptor

dull powers which are almost all just variations of the same basic attacks

Welcome to the early game, what did you expect? Atleast we’re not pressing M1 for every single attack, atleast its not keystroke bullshit.
The game is nowhere near complete and its getting completely reworked in a few months.

@taxiraptor

The lack of any form of fast travel, meaning if you die and spawn on the other side of the map and want to meet with a friend, hopefully you have the patience to run the distance because otherwise there seems to not be a way to easily fast travel.

You respawn nearby wherever you die, smart guy. (most of the time, it can be buggy)

@taxiraptor

T to high jump? Why not just long-hold space? CTRL to sprint? You’re not even using LShift for anything, so why?

LShift is used for magic charging, also ctrl is a toggle, its really not that hard to press once, I’ve seen way worse control schemes and guess what I did… I got used to them.

@taxiraptor

after the magic council put a 700 bounty on me, they got the better of me and took me down. I wasn’t too upset about losing the fight, it was a good run.
Then it hit me.
The five minute jail timer.

I have to completely agree that the longer jail timers are probably the most stupid part of the entire game, and when TGR happens so that we can’t kill shopkeepers, it will have no real reason to exist other than to make negative rep players suffer because yes.
I say “no real reason to exist” because shopkeepers being killable were the entire reason I was ok with it existing, as that’s a pretty good reason to basically temp-ban somebody for 10 minutes.
Its sad that you wrote this entire essay to only have one remotely agreeable point.

@taxiraptor

I just wanted to start this topic to say this is just about the worst RPG I’ve ever played (on Roblox.)

lol ok, you must be new to roblox because WoM is one of the only worthwhile RPGs on the platform that doesn’t feel like a clicker.
So you’re telling me that Swordburst 2 and Dungeon Quest are truely superior games that have had far more thought put into them yes. Truefacts, Swordburst best game on roblox.

@taxiraptor

I am never touching this dumpster-fire of an ‘RPG’ again, and am truly horrified by the lack of any semblance of higher brain function from whatever cave-dwelling troglodytes came up with this shit.

Goodbye and please don’t come back 'cause nobody really wants your kind around here, as you’ve written an entire essay about why you hate the game but it appears you haven’t even completed the tutorial or been on roblox at all for longer than 5 minutes.

To the people making resposes as long as the post itself, I think it’s worth pointing out that taxiraptor left immediately after making this post. As in, they closed the tab and haven’t even looked at the forum since.
Their total reading time is <1 minute.

also they’re not wrong about the jail thing

[Kxks]

my god he IS a troll

[TheoreticalExistence]

I mean it was pretty obvious, they called WoM the worst RPG on roblox when Swordburst 2 and Dungeon Quest exist. (those are just the two shit RPGs that immediately come to mind)

[Kxks]

I never played those. Why do people hate theM?

[NoBanana]

a troll would keep poking the fires to get a rise out of people, or at the very least stick around to laugh at whoever they managed to irritate

taxiraptor isn’t a troll, they’re just frustrated and wanted to vent

[TheoreticalExistence]

Leftclick for all attacks, infinite grind, P2W, repetitive, basically simulators.

[NoBanana]

@TheoreticalExistence

at least swordburst 2 doesn’t have a 10 minute respawn timer

[DRobinHood]

I dont think ive ever seen dungeon quest… gimme a sec ima go check it out

Edit: okay im back, this aint a fucken rpg its a dungeon crawler that is more repetitive than this guy thinks WoM is

[TheoreticalExistence]

The jail timer is really stupid but its needed for WoM in its current state, as I addressed in my reply…
It will have literally no reason to exist after TGR.

[LittleShrekSheep]

now this is the shit i live for on the forum

you gotta commend the fact that he bothered to find the forum, make an account, then make a rant on how he absolutely froths at the idea of a long jail time and other issues that AO will fix (be real though, he probably typed this out nearly in tears while waiting for his jail time to expire)

but i gotta be realistic here, everything won’t be a miracle fix once the TGR drops, but it’ll definitely improve what we have so far

[TheoreticalExistence]

Too bad he already left so he can’t make himself look like more of an actual walking joke.

[LittleShrekSheep]

thats fine, one less person to moderate

[Vetex]

Typing this entire thing was pointless, the game is already being revamped and its addressing every problem you mentioned.

@taxiraptor

spammy AI where every fight feels like the exact same fight that you’ve had with every other enemy, the dull powers which are almost all just variations of the same basic attacks

All things that will change in future updates, obviously, since the game is nowhere near done

@taxiraptor

and the lack of quality of life features while also promoting a draining gameplay ideology of grind, fetch quest, grind.

Another thing being changed in the revamp update

@taxiraptor

The lack of any form of fast travel, meaning if you die and spawn on the other side of the map and want to meet with a friend, hopefully you have the patience to run the distance because otherwise there seems to not be a way to easily fast travel.

You spawn in the area you died, but yes this can get annoying, which is why boats are being added to the revamp (since the map isn’t going to be a continent anymore)

@taxiraptor

it’s hidden in the game’s clunky and horribly designed UI and map, or maybe it’s hidden in the random, confusing key-bindings. T to high jump? Why not just long-hold space? CTRL to sprint? You’re not even using LShift for anything, so why?

This is probably the dumbest line here. The UI is actually designed pretty well and it’s easy to understand, same with the keybinds, which are literally taught in the tutorial. Also LShift is being used, you clearly didn’t play long enough or just skipped the tutorial altogether.

@taxiraptor

You are punishing users for playing the game in a way that they want to.

What? So players killing NPCs and destroying entire towns should go unpunished? You’d rather join a server where there are no shops, no NPCs, and no towns? What kind of stupid argument is this

@taxiraptor

So you would assume that you would allow people to freely explore those sides without punishing them for picking one

You CAN. The problem here is just that you aren’t smart. Obviously, if you have a low reputation and start mass murdering and destroying a town, that cannot go unpunished. The proper way to play as a bad rep in the current game is to keep your bounty low enough to where you can lure the soldiers out of a town, kill them, and survive. Obviously if you get to max bounty, you get fucked.

@taxiraptor

What happens when you get caught stealing, hurting, or killing in Skyrim? The guards will stop you, offer you a chance to pay a fine or go to jail, or you can attack them. If you go to jail, you don’t even have to go sit through an arbitrary wait time. You escape and steal all of your things back

Skyrim is a singleplayer game, which means they don’t need to punish players in the same harsh way. If you could break out of jail, it just means that there is zero punishment for players that kill NPCs and destroy towns.

@taxiraptor

I am never touching this dumpster-fire of an ‘RPG’ again, and am truly horrified by the lack of any semblance of higher brain function from whatever cave-dwelling troglodytes came up with this shit.

Good riddance, honestly, it just sounds like you weren’t smart enough to read the tutorial and learn from the pretty obvious hints the game gives you. Got arrested and jailed for 5 mins? Okay, that means maybe you should have dealt with the soldiers better or stopped your bounty from getting that high.

Either way, the entire problem with killing NPCs is removed in the revamp since moving/killable quest NPCs was a bad idea anyway.

oh boy vetex is replying

[DRobinHood]

they didnt damage it

THEY BURNED IT TO ASHES AND DUST

[NEKOSAIKOU]

Holy shit vetex even took his time to reply to this post.

[Baba]

No! My thing (lol)

[Cosmos]

What? Is this guy 13+? He has to because he typed this so formally…
…but this makes me think he’s 9:

@taxiraptor

You’re not even using LShift for anything, so why?

[Felix_Talo]

Person can’t just handle a taste of Karma .
Plus TGR is fixing 99.9999999999% of WOM’s problems.
