FOr the majority of MMOs, yes. Hardware plays a MAJOR role in MMOs.
I think WoW is the exception to the rule. It has low system requirements to get good performance, but is also the largest MMO to date (imho it's because of Blizzards name, low system requirements, and Warcraft history). It sucks IMHO, but that's just me
When EQ2 came out, no systems could run it on highest settings without getting 1-5fps. Same was for many others, and is the kiss of death for most of them.
It's because of the massive numbers of textures and "realistic" graphics that they have, compared to the realitive "comic/animation" graphics that WoW has.
Probably not talked about in reviews because they generally have so many different things that could be the cause of the low FPS. It would be hard to really give a good review of it, unless it was over a long period. |
