Does not have to be a good mmo. Reasoning can be anything. If you read my last post you know I'm a huge fan of dungeons and dragons online, which may not be most people's ides of a quality mmo.

Feel free to mention old games that aren't around anymore, upcoming mmorpgs, or anything else you want to talk about really. I'm doing these mostly for my own entertainment, and hope you will feel free to do the same. Please use the games full name at least once, as acronyms can be confusing for myself and people like me.

Bonus points if you tell me about the worst mmorpg you actually like and play.

I'm going to do another post eventually where I summarize these and talk about some of the ones I've tried. Like these posts, it's not going to contain any information or anything intresting, just some things to talk about. I think the reccomendations I got in my last post were much more varied and intresting then what I've seen on reddit and other sites.

I just tried bless unleashed for the first time and it seemed really solid, until I looked into the reviews. Anyone have any thoughts on this, Terra, or any of the other impressive looking mmorpgs that never make it to these lists? If you have a favorite that people seem to hate I would love to hear what you like about.

Bless Unleashed has a really long history of being a failure, I think the current iteration is the fifth or sixth version? The publisher has been relaunching this same game for ages, sometimes even changing the platform, usually with few changes if any at all. When the game inevitably fails again, they take whatever money it made, change the name a little and launch it again a few months later. I haven't seen the current reviews but I'm guessing it's people warning potential players about the history of this company. In any case, the game in all it's iterations never seemed more than a thoroughly bland, inoffensive take on an MMORPG that will leave you thinking "Why aren't I playing X instead?". That's my view on it anyway, though it seems consistent with some of the critical reviews it's gotten over the years

Tera has shut down a while ago, used to be a fun game. I think it has a few private servers out there

I thought I was going to enjoy blesses combat system at first but it just feels...off. Terra looked nice, but from what I've heard we're not missing much.
