Disappointing generations, hardware shortages, price increases, stupid live-service initiatives nobody wants, ever more subscriptions, and closing of studios that would usually turn out hits as long as you let them work in peace… Thank god for indie studios, retro consoles, PC gaming and a backlog that will last me three lifetimes.
Unfortunately not on PC but the Xenoblade Chronicles games are very MMO-like, in particular Xenoblade Chronicles X which puts less emphasis on the overall story and more on exploration, sidequests, levelling, min-maxing and gameplay systems. You’ll find great worlds to explore and combat that is quite reminiscent of typical cool-down systems in MMOs. XBX does have some online components but you can play the whole game completely offline too.
