number 7 final fantasy 14 a realm reborn
Square Enix brought the classic RPG
series into the current generation of
consoles with this title and well it
didn’t always run as smooth
the original version of ff14 was so bad
that Square Enix literally scrapped the
game and started again rather glad they
did though because you’ll love
discovering the beautiful landscapes as
you fight to save the world from the
garleon Empire number six Lord of the
Rings Online the One Ring has revealed
itself middle-earth has been explored in
different forms but with the success of
WoW the one format everyone was surely
waiting for was an MMO by even if you
weren’t a fan of the series before the
title you’ll love banding together with
other citizens of middle-earth to fight
the evil nazgûl orcs and other enemies
of course if you need a break from
fighting you can enjoy professions like
weapons building and woodwork
you must unite the free peoples of area
dog and inspire them to stand against
Sauron number 5 Dark Age of Camelot
enter Albion and discover the fabled
lands of Arthur you can’t let a little
thing like a king dying get you bent out
of shit in this game the death of King
Arthur sets off a war between Albion
Hibernia and Midgard in the years since
the death of King Arthur the fragile
peace between these realms has been
shattered you’ll choose which realm you
want to fight for and your realm
determines which of the game’s many
races you can play as amazing PvP and
siege mechanics garnered the game
enormous amounts of devoted fans now you
can join this epic struggle and lead
your realm
number four EverQuest but alas ignorance
and innocence
don’t let the blocky graphics fool you
ultima online may have been one of the
genres biggest pioneers but EverQuest
was the first MMO to put you in a fully
3d world to explore as brave explorers
journeyed forth in search of fertile
lands on which you move huge complex
deep and punishing EverQuest was not for
the casual player but that didn’t stop a
legion of devoted subscribers from ever
questing the heck out of all twenty
expansions it is the land of EverQuest
number three Star Wars The Old Republic
you radiate POW and Lord hi pal before
you whether you associate with the Jedi
or you feel like you’re more of a SIF
type this game’s got what you need how
did you learn that the force told me son
taking a page out of Bioware’s Mass
Effect series the morality spectrum
allows you to pursue your own goals in
fully voiced conversations a big deal in
an MMO I know you brought the red
stained skull and I must say I am
pleased aside from the usual open
adventure you can also take part in PvP
dogfights in space be strong be
merciless and may the force be with you
number 2 eve online missiles inbound
here’s a game that emphasizes massive in
MMORPG the 7,500 star systems made for a
seemingly limitless galaxy filled with
wormholes asteroid belts moons and more
honor isn’t about making the right
choices
it’s about dealing with the consequences
unlike other titles in the genre Eve
functions as a single universe instead
of multiple realms so you’ll never run
out of players to interact with
battleships hundred times up we gotta go
negative just hold them off I’m almost
through fun fact
in the city of Reykjavik Iceland there’s
now a monument dedicated to this game
with all the active players as names
etched into the base it’s been a change
of plans
Vanguard I’m gonna strike last before we
get to our number one let’s take a look
at some honorable mentions
number one World of Warcraft
I guess there was never any doubt the
most successful MMO of all time resulted
from Blizzard applying their signature
perfection over innovation style to the
EverQuest model at least we don’t
Sparkle by slowly introducing elements
to new players and removing a lot of the
more frustrating genre tropes Warcraft
hooked millions of subscribers and
hasn’t let go and thanks in part to
South Park it allowed for a machinima
style short films to receive mainstream
recognition do you agree with our list

bite what’s your favorite world to get
