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 like FFXIV a lot. I play it every day (although not as much recently). I love how the gear looks, I like the story and how it gives structure to the game systems, I love the job system. I like how the grinds are long enough for the rewards to be meaningful but not too convoluted or long as to be too annoying to be worth it (GW2 legendary grinds barely feel worth it to me). It's the perfect chill game for me. And the raids are top notch too. I'll be trying to start progging ultimates this year.

Now for a bad game I like it would be SWTOR. I wish I had the money to play it in it's heyday, but even then (and now) it's hard to shake the feeling you are just playing a slightly worse WoW with a Star Wars coat of paint over it. Every now and again I try to get through another story but the "ded gaem" vibes make me feel I'm just wasting my time.

I played swtor a lot during covid and met a lot of cool people. I imagine server's were a bit more active then, but they were still pretty quiet. I play DDO a lot which is basically the same game on a diffrent skin, and am lucky enough to be in an awesome guild that makes it easy to find friends. With a level cap that only really goes to 20 it's a lot easier to fond groups too.
