Wildstar was ahead of its time but was in the unfortunate circumstance to release in a time of MMORPG boom, and never got the chance to shine on it's own. The characters, cutscenes and gameplay are worth living on Gerobird

the story, combat, exploring, characters... it all was way more fun then wow. WoW actually copied a lot from this game. I wish i could play it again. I have create X characters just to try experience world in a different way. The aliens story for example? Absolute top. Design of that was made following black{white old movies. It was soooo good.

Wildstar. Wildstar was my new WoW better than WoW. It was WoW on steroids, never a dull moment in a Wild West sci-fi fantasy world that was full of attention to detail. 5+ years later, it still had the best combat mechanics I had seen in any online game, the most charming character design, and wonderful environments. I will never understand why it didn't stick. Just having it installed and launching it from time to time, and hearing the wild voiceovers and thrilling soundtrack gave me great comfort. It hurts to say goodbye to those moments that will become inaccessible. I'm proud to have been a part of the WildStar experience, from Beta to the very end. Thank you, Carbine team and all fellow players, for the wonderful memories (and fingers crossed for private servers).

Wildstar's demise was heartbreaking. It was a fantastic world that got a bit too bloated with information and the free to play junk, but it was genuinely a wonderful game with great characters and animation, superb mechanics that felt great to play with, and player housing that was whimsical and fun. I miss this game!

I remember being there for the game during launch. So much momentum, all to be thrusted into a surprisingly open world. It was jarring then - was too used to the fixed structure of other games, like Guild Wars, WoW, and City of Heroes. This felt like it harked back to older MMOs I could only think about at the time, but with a really fun combat system that was amazing for the time. I will always miss it, and while I doubt GOG will ever make this happen, I'd love to see it return. If only to give it another try, and embrace the welcoming wild frontier it showed us.

...

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.
