“Worthless in the future” isn’t really right even for mmos tho. Just depends what sort of person you are.

I mean if someone can spin up their own server and just play with a group of friends (maybe 10-20 people?) that’s basically the bulk of the game’s content available. Sure, stuff like PuG, auction house, etc. won’t have any value but… in my experience those are such minor parts of the games most of the time as to be trashable.

Personally I would prefer playing mmos with a small dedicated group I know over the public at large. Well populated servers tend to be a miserable experience for people who want a group game but not a public group. Even if you stick to your own guild, people in the world are assholes on purpose whenever they can be.

So I’m strongly of the opinion that any game requiring a server should have a server spin-up launched when the official servers go down. At least give people the option.
