Smile Modern servers, why do they exist?

Title says it all..
Graal is a MMORPG, more of a RPG in my opinion. These modern-day shooters are more of 2-D shooting games. PFFT.

To limit Graal to any genre is a bit silly since you can obviously make what you want of it.

I mean, UN is more 'out of place' in an MMORPG than Era is, considering they have sniper rifles, cars, and a whole bunch of other silly **** that shouldn't be in a typical 'RPG' world.

Role-Playing Game =! Fantasy. Modern games can be RPGs.

If people play it, what's wrong with having it?

Currently Era is at the top of list with 105 players so I can see it doing better than any non-modern server.

MMORPG=massivley multiplayer online roleplaying game so modern servers fit which if you ask me one needs to be made by an actual game studio. I haven't watched E3 has anyone seen anything on All Points Bulletin? It's supposed to be a modern mmorpg similar to (not just shootem up actual working to)

I would have never purchased a Graal account if it wasn't for Era.
I don't see the point playing watered down WoW's on a game that 3000 people know about;
so why not play something unique?

You can argue Era is like other games, but from my 5 years of experience playing the playerworld, it's far different from anything i've ever played, and is the most taxing in the skill department.

I think most modern servers that use guns etc come across as more of a game than other severs, as constantly increasing your kill count is seen as more interesting with the guns and getting new guns. RPG servers need to have constant quests to keep the players similarly entertained, and it seems no server wishes to supply the volume of content necessary to make it appeal for a long time to player.

Pelikano has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Such servers have the most players, so who cares

They were RPGs, but they weren't "high fantasy". Time periods have nothing to do with RPGs. Locations, weapons, appearance, etc. As long as there's a "role" to "play", then it's an RPG.
