Maybe because a game like MNOG, which was a point and click adventure isnt as appealing to the target age as it was back in 2001 when games were just starting to get better. Maybe because clicking around in an environment and reading text is boring to children?
I wonder why they stopped making those type of games for Bionicle after 2006? Maybe its because they stopped affecting sales and weren’t worth the money to make.
Now these current games at least display a basic story and show all the sets, it showcases what the sets do and makes the players look at what there doing for the most part. But then again neither of gen 2’s games are meant to be challenging or hard or to show all the story, they are meant to be interactive ads for Bionicle, like the Nexo Knights game.
But then again what do I know, your clearly the expert, since you always seem to know what Bionicle needs and what needs to be different.

I think this might be the problem.
they why did the point and click market boom after 2001, Telltale being an obvious example…so no its not the appeal went, its just LEGO made somewhat bad decisions in what games should be made…you want an actiony but forgetable game, or do you want a lighter RPG game but memorable.
MNOG did way better marketing than all these interactive ads that LEGO has been doing in the past decade that arent console releases.
Well, not all games that have action are forgettable and not all games with story are memorable. There needs to be a middle ground, really.
Telltale games still have action and movement, but they focus on character development and giving the player a breather here and there between moments of action to talk to the characters and get to know them.
What I’m saying is, while Bionicle badly needs some sort of game of its own to at least help get it noticed, it’s very difficult to tell what game would work the best considering Bionicle’s audience have different interests and wants. It’s difficult to make a game that not only introduces people to Bionicle, but also keeps them interested in the story, the events, and the characters.

Not all, but all Bionicle actiony games were, specifically the free ones.
I MUST SEE THE COMICS
Anyway I just got SB and Ekiblu, but my phone won’t send the photos to my computer so… no pictures for a while? SB is underrated. He shouldn’t even be thought of even being compared to Ketar. Ketar is a horrible, $9 set with no redeeming qualities, while QB is not.

Not true at all, he has useful parts when you decapitate him for MOC reasons.

Ok, ok, Ketar actually isn’t as bad as everyone makes him out to be. QB is still leagues ahead of him though.

I’m tempted to play the Mask of Control game now, just to get the comics, but I haven’t even beaten the Winter Wave component yet, let alone whatever new stuff they’ve added for the Summer update…
So does anyone have any screenshots of the story? I don’t plan on playing the game.

u wot mate?
Ketar isn’t that bad. Like seriously. He has his flaws, by all means, but he’s not the worst set to ever be released ever. He has a neat function (even if it doesn’t work the way people want it).

He’s obviously not, that award would go to Good Guy probably, or maybe the Stars. But on the scale of G2, he is without a doubt the worst set.

Still waiting for info on the Red Hunter mask.

I think I figured out the summer storyline:
Umarak heads toward the volcano. Ekimu titan tries and fails to stop him. Using the volcano, Umarak awakens the beasts. The Toa face the beasts. The Toa win using the magic of friendship and gallop off into the sunset.
