Which MMORPG do you play constantly and actually enjoy?

Since MMORPGs are a big investment, there are few that could be considered 'decent'. Which MMO is 'the one' for you?

I use to play TERA online and Elder Scrolls Online but I dropped TERA and have been playing ESO for 5 years now. I'll drop it once AOC launches.

@makinoji TERA is a fine game while ESO is on my top 3 MMORPGs list. Good choices 🙂

@Nagash ah didn't expect that since necromancers don't exist as a class in FFXIV 😅 It's a decent game tho very similar to WoW in terms of gameplay.

I haven't ever played one yet >.> pretty excited for ashes.

I like the world and lore of FFXIV plus I hate WoW

Well I used to play WoW quite a bit. Stopped playing it as I did not enjoy the new expansion. Can't bring myself to go back and try it out even with the new patch coming out soon.

Currently not playing any MMORPGs and most likely won't be again until Ashes comes out. I'm just playing through old RPG games until then.

I play WoW constantly, but I would be hardpressed to say that I enjoy it. I stick around basically because my guild is there, and there are so few games with constant raid content. I know I'm a relic of the past, but I LIKE the 20 man raid type encounters.

Beyond that, the few (not so few) I've loved in the past have been things like EQ2, Wildstar, Ryzom, Secret World, Istaria, Rift, ESO, and even GW2 at times. I love these all for different reasons, as I think they've all done some things brilliantly that others may not have. For instance, the mounts in GW2 are some of the best and most enjoyable I've seen in any game. I love the crafting in Istaria and Ryzom. I love that you can play Dragons in Istaria. I love the weather and season system from Ryzom, as well as the monster AI that the game has. I loved the housing in EQ2, Wildstar, Rift, and even ESO. I loved how immersive EQ2 felt at times. Rift was the first game I raided in, so it will always have a place in my heart, and Wildstar... Oh Wildstar. Poor game was brilliant, but badly handled. I liked the lore, the sarcasm, and the raids are some of the best I'd ever done. Secret World I enjoyed for the ambiance and the story. I liked the investigation missions there. Actually, all of the games I listed up there have had stories I rather enjoyed.

@Nayukhuut Wildstar...It was such a delight to play that game. I believe most of the people here do play an MMORPG not because they really enjoy it but because there isn't anything else to play. As you mentioned each of those games have some great features. What we can hope is that Ashes will have all of the best features of decent MMOs combined in one game and create the ultimate MMORPG

I’ve played WoW since a few months after it’s launch. I often take looong breaks (many months) and only get back to it when my guild friends need raiders when attendance drops. I use gold for play time and they offer donations if it means they can progress. I love my friends!

But I love FFXIV more. I like that it feels like one of my favorite RPGs. And eveyone I’ve met on there have been nice.

Atm none. Although not sure if it could be called that, KurtzPel is on my radar as the best that's going in early access soon.

WoW should in my opinion choose a gracefull death, instead of slipping into the coma that will lead to its ultimate demise. I know it is a gigantic cashcow, but the MMORPG genre needs the space, that WoW takes up, to flourish.

There's a lot of good MMO's out there, but I've just played them enough where replayability isn't there anymore.

WoW - Played it for 7/8 years or so.
ESO - Played it for like 4/5 years
SWTOR - Off and on since launch, but imo the best story in an MMO, playing through all classes storylines was very enjoyable. TBH though, I wouldn't REALLY call it an MMO.

Yes, it will be ESO for me until AOC launches though have honestly have been ready to move on from ESO for a couple of years but with a lack of anything apart from AOC grabbing my interest. My guildmates do make ESO somewhat fun still.

Eve Online without a doubt, but I will assume you are really referring to fantasy MMO's.

Archeage had some really good systems and mechanics. Naval combat was a great experience, ruined a little by zerg guilds, but still it was the best fun i had in over a decade since the early days of Eve. It was a shame it was poisoned by P2W. Hopefully as Steven played and enjoyed Archeage he will bring those ideas to Ashes.

I have put significant time into WoW and Aion in the past 10 years but will never play either again. The one game that I have play faithfully for 11 years (paid subscription every month) is Eve Online. There has been periods where I haven't logged in for a month or two, but Eve is the only game that is able to pull me back in.

Eve offers so much more than any other MMO currently available There is just such a variety off content available that even after 11 years and close to 20k hours of play I have only scratched the surface. I was just looking at the Universe map the other day and realized that I have, after all the years and time I've put in I have explored less than 20% of the universe.

Even if AoC is good enough to become my primary game, I will still log into Eve regularly.

One of the things I enjoy most about Eve is showing new players the ropes, if anyone is interested in Eve but are scared off by the large learning curve give me a shout I should be able to flatten that curve out a bit for you.
