The last few years have been quiet on the legal issues in games, but in true 2025 fashion, this year was a legal drama-llama. Granted, maybe a little bit more on the “Ally McBeal” side of legal drama than the “Matlock.” But hey, I’m here for it. From corporate-facepalm shenanigans to Roblox spending another year […]

So 2025 marks the 11th year in a row when we have put together a roundup of all the MMORPG-tinged science topics we covered this year, and I’m noticing two trends worth pointing out. First, the number of MMORPGs that are running polls and surveys to actually ask their players what they think about things […]

Welcome back to MassivelyOP’s annual awards for one more special honoree. Readers will remember that a few years ago, we decided to institute a lifetime achievement award specifically to honor an MMORPG that has made a significant contribution to the genre over the course of its lifetime and the genre’s history but may not be […]

Today we’re finishing up our traditional countdown of MassivelyOP’s weirdest MMORPG stories of the year, that year being 2025! Coming in at #1 on our list is… Oh come on, you knew it was War Thunder again This award has been a tradition since 2021, when it first became mainstream news that military nerds were […]

Welcome back to MassivelyOP’s annual MMORPG awards for 2025! Today’s award is for the MMORPG of the Year, which was awarded to Throne & Liberty last year. Longtime readers will recall that way back in 2014, our staff was so disillusioned with the new MMOs launching that we withheld this award and picked “nothing” as our […]

You know, for all the MMORPGs we cover here on MassivelyOP, the ones that speak to me personally enough to actually capture my precious free time are few and far between. In 2025, while I at least dipped a toe into a long list of games, the ones I submerged in can be counted on […]

So here we are, at the top of a new year, 12 whole months of screwing around in video games laid out before us. In tonight’s Massively Overthinking, we have but one question: What are you gonna do with those 12 months?! I’m asking our writers and readers to rattle off what they think will […]

Today we’re continuing our traditional countdown of MassivelyOP’s weirdest MMORPG stories of the year, that year being 2025! Coming in at #2 on our list is… Roblox’s Grow A Garden When I first heard about the viral hit Roblox MMO called Grow A Garden, I was full of snark. I mean, gardening and farming games […]

Welcome back to MassivelyOP’s annual MMORPG awards for 2025! Today’s award is for the Most Anticipated MMO, which was awarded to Star’s Reach last year. This award can be frustrating since many of the games and expansions we’re picking from here haven’t changed much as we’re still waiting on them. We’ll see how it goes in […]

Welcome to the end of the year, everyone! Somehow we all got here, seriously, and that means it’s time for our annual roundup of stories and events over the last year. I’m sure that some of these will have people saying that they were not surprised by anything that happened over the course of 2025, in […]
