Top 10 Best MMO Games

Alex Cote from 3GEM writes: '! These games require so much dedication and involvement from their players, and are definitely worth talking about. There are also many upcoming MMOs that are promising to bring a lot of fun for gamers worldwide, but we’re only going to focus on the past and present. So let’s see what made our list!'

Is it sad that I've only ever played Wow and TOR...

Xristo3754d ago

A Top 10 MMO list without Dark Age of Camelot boggles my mind. There is a reason that MMOs, such as Guild Wars 2 and The Elder Scrolls Online, are going three-realm wars (RvR). It was mastered and successful by Mythic and hasn't been done great since. Hopefully, 'Camelot Unchained' (Mark Jacobs - Lead Designer from DAoC) can recreate that magic!

Abriael3754d ago

Agreed. Also, while I loved The Secret World, it's by no means the best :D

FFXIV deserved its position, if not to be called the best itself.

Xristo3754d ago

I haven't had the chance to experience FFXIV but I've heard nothing but good things. As for TSW, I agree. But, if this list was "Best Quest System in an MMO" TSW would easily be #1, IMHO. The way you interacted with the internet was truly innovative! Heck, you needed to learn Morse Code (or cheat) to complete a quest!

DC7773754d ago

FFXIV deserves to be up there indeed. Not sure why you included games no longer available on the list.

Wulfstan3754d ago

Is this article a joke? Where is World of Warcraft?

grahf3754d ago

WoW is a given. So is the granddaddy of all these games... Ultima Online. Way ahead of its time.

Thatlalala3754d ago (Edited 3754d ago )

Agreed. Although I'm burned out on wow since cata, pretty ignorant not to mention the elephant in the room.. Wow upped the bar, and set industry standards. (remembering 40 man Nax, barrens chat, and my first flying mount)

Lol, damn... At this point, they were better off keeping FF XIV away from Xbox. It has been nothing but obstacle, after obstacle.

gold_drake20d ago

wanted to say the exact same thjng.

VenomUK20d ago (Edited 20d ago )

What happens if you say things that used to get you banned on Twitter e.g. 'a man can't be a woman'?

I'm not convinced this is the profanity filter. It doesn't make sense to censor words like class, harvest and dance. It seems to be a bug.

TheGamingHounds19d ago

Well, FF14 itself has some pretty awful chat censoring so Xbox being in the same boat isn't too farfetched

Eidolon19d ago

it censored the S T D in "harvest dance" and I bet the A S S in class. I know this because of Runescape

Aphrodia20d ago

Yeah these new fangled filters are going a bit too far. I have a game that filters "wtf". It's a censor for a self-censoring phrase. But I think overall it's how it should be. If you don't want certain language being used in your game by your player base, then it's up to you to filter/ censor the language you don't want. I can respect that. What I can't respect is when you say things that are not really offensive then you get ostracized for it.

What happened to just reporting people

NOMATICENIGMA20d ago

This is completely false, I tested this on my son's child account and mine, this is not Microsoft censoring they will censor swears but not the combination of letters I can prove this with a screenshot where I use all mentioned words in the article but do not know how to upload a picture.

NOMATICENIGMA20d ago

You can all continue your bashing, I was wrong someone explained to me this is a new policy, that's why it only happens for me in this brand new release. I'll try latter on ps to confirm but their response seemed informed wich leaves me rather worried for future censorship on my xbox.

CrimsonWing6920d ago

Geezus, Xbox, you get gifted gold and still f*ck things up.

NOMATICENIGMA20d ago

It's not xbox, go ahead start a chat with the youngest person on your friends list then say raid mass class sass said .... they do not censor any of these I even got away with R.Aids. sqaure on the other hand does.

CrimsonWing6920d ago

Does this affect PC and PS4/PS5 users, too? Or is it only happening on Xbox?
