    So long Wildstar. You were certainly one of the more interesting MMOs to come out in the post-WoW landscape. I just hope all those creative people at Carbine have found new homes by now.

    i'm gonna keep hoping that someone buys the ip.

    someone that isn't garbage, at least. make a singleplayer game of it at least.

    Why would they?
    To be honest, nothing in Wildstar IP seems all that original or worthwhile copying. Why would you spend a money on a franchise that did not even managed to attract a modest amount of fans to save itself? It's not like Wildstar is a Firefly of games.

    Combat and art style are pretty much broadly appreciated, housing system is the best i've seen in many years, story is a bit clichè but still enjoyable. Really, the only thing that really went wrong here is content structure and basically it being an old style MMO in this regard. Scale everything down and re-release it as an action APRG with dungeons/raids being balanced on 1-to-4 groups with a rework of the healer/tanks classes so there's no trinity and you'll have a pretty good game in your hands.

    I really don't know how Carbine failed to see this.

    Meh, while it is a shame that they pulled the plug on the game, City of Heroes / Villians was 20x the game WS could ever have hoped to be. If they ever decide to bring a MMO back out of the dustbin of history, CoH would get my vote long before WS even registered a thought.

    Goodbye Wildstar, I had some fun with you at launch, but you got boring fast with a bland world and questing system.

    PVP was crap, but I enjoyed the 5 mans and first raid.

    This.

    The game could easily be ported to consoles, too. Also I think the art style and humour could really appeal to younger audience a la Fortnite and LoL, which are aesthetically similar.

    Oh man, I feel this so much it hurts; I'm not leaving WOW JUST yet, but actively looking for a secondary MMO to get into so that it won't feel so bad when I do eventually jump ship, but none of the current MMO's out there have the cartoony look of Wildstar or WOW, and seem too serious and take themselves too seriously.
