They should just convert Secret World to a single player RPG with co-op. It'd be cool.

The Secret World

Are you talking about Secret World or Legends? Because the original game was group up for instances or stay a noob forever.
But that's all it was anyway. You run around doing shitty solo quests where everything goes splat. And you team up to do the same 6 dungeons a million times and it has to be spread out over a long time because the dumbshit locks.
EverQuest, the only MMO ever made that wasn't incredibly dumb. (Except for a few other old ones..)

no more story = time to quit secret world, legends and otherwise, and play actual mmos

I like this guy, he's a bit of a fuckin dork but it's a fascinating look at dead MMOs.

Those bums at Funcom should just make a single player RPG in this setting.
Of course, instead they are just shitting out some walking sims.

imagine playing the secret world as anything but a storyfag game
Well there is not much else there, that's the problem. The story fag thing is shameful though. The overall story and dialogue is really crappy. Yeah a comic book movie fan might be ok with it but for an adult it isn't acceptable. And the quest gameplay and dialogue is even worse. The investigation quests were so hyped and in reality they are such a let down. And there are not many of them. This is what the vast majority of quests are like:
Traveller help me. Dee foreest. It speaks to meee... Dee forest say dat it may not rest while tortured souls roam. Please help me save dee foreest, by keeling dees tortured souls.

everyone knows that making numbers go higher and higher is the point of gaming
LOL, tell me how adult you are, playing videogames. TSW had great story and writing for a game. Not high literature, but one of the best the medium offered for the last decades. That's ot saying much? Maybe. But since we are playing videogames, we have to compare them in their medium.
TSW should be played as a storyfag adventure game, because the MMO part is banal shit boring.

how many years is it now without story progression? 2?
And I still haven't played through the base story. Because fuck this MMO gameplay. The story is godly, but seriously, the gameplay puts me off.

Managed to reach the end of Egypt once before the Secret World Legends thing but ended up passing out of boredom because of the gameplay, is Transylvania and Tokyo on the same level of Solomon Island? Because the gameplay is MMO trash but Solomon island was excellent in design and that kept me going but when I reached Egypt, there was a hard shift from story to focus on killing trash mobs for hours on end and that was so fucking boring, nothing fucking happens on Egypt. Thinking on reinstalling this thing but dunno if Transylvania and Tokyo are worthy to survive the pain that Egypt is.

No, nothing quite tops Solomon Island, though Egypt at its best comes close. Transylvania gets good by the end of it, on the 3rd map, so it may be worth it to do that. Tokyo has amazing quests but the whole map is too open and too big, doesnt feel quite right.
I havent tried the newest chapter, should be a good chance to do it now.

Played it shortly after release, fucking amazing game.
If it was a proper single player game, Funcom would be rolling in dough

imho tokyo and blue mountains are rthe best zones. I wouldnt play it to the end though since, while it has some closure, it still is set up as a story that should go forward which it doesnt anymore. If I read the patch page correctly the last main story update was august 18, pretty much 2 years ago.
