In a time when I spend a lot of my days ruminating on what an MMO really is, a game where you don’t really play alongside other players? That’s not an MMO.īut! Triad Wars is fun. It’s not bad, in fact it can be very fun and is polished really tightly, but calling it an MMO is a bit of a stretch.
So basically, Triad Wars is the perfect MMO if you really don’t want to deal or play with other people in any real meaningful way. You build a base, attack others’ bases, and join clans to go on larger scale wars. The multiplayer aspect is like Clash of Clans.
Though you’re playing on the servers at the same time with thousands of others, you’ll never really see anyone else. In entire honesty, it has more in common with regular open world RPGs, than any MMO. What it means, before you get excited about a fully-multiplayer Sleeping Dogs, is that you’ll play Triad Wars completely solo, but you’ll be competing with and against other players.
