Meme Monday: New to MMOs Memes

We've all been new to an MMO, right? Whether it's WoW, Final Fantasy XIV, SWTOR, LOTRO, New World, or some other game, we've all been the newbie to the genre. So this is dedicated to those first few months that we've spent figuring this genre out.

Trying to figure out what MMO to play is always an
adventure, and not necessarily the good kind. And no,
I don't know what game the scantily clad elf is from.
My guess is BDO. From YouTube.

(And if you understand MMOs now, let me know. I still have a curve ball thrown at me every other week, and I've been  playing since 2009.)

Emblematic of all games, but MMOs in particular,
it's hard to understand the lingo and systems
while you're getting acclimated. From Reddit. Again.

Keeping new players engaged is a real
problem, and weaponizing FOMO is starting
to get a bit old. Once it gets past a certain
point, game companies are going to have to
figure out something else, because the cynicism
will overhwelm any sense of FOMO.
From Reddit. (Do I detect a trend?)

Yeah, this sort of thing happens all the time.
From Pinterest.

Interacting with other players can be good, 
but some MMOs encourage toxic behavior
by design. From Reddit (once more).

Some games are highly customizable with addons, 
which... becomes a problem. Then again, a lot of
MMO players turn off the music and sound and
focus on the addons anyway. From Reddit.

And finally, you knew there was a Starter Pack about MMORPGs...

I feel like they're picking on WoW Classic and
Old School Runescape here. From Reddit.
