[Deeble]

"Best MMO Ever" series when?

[extremepostyo]

A man that values subjective preferences. I like it.

[cattysplat]

When MMOs no longer give you the good feels and friends no longer play them 😞

[ramon]

Me having a Lv90 FFXIV character. "What are these... friends?"

[rept]

A wholesome answer until you realize you can't find a MMO you enjoy and/or have friends to join you in. :(

[Marwolaeth]

100% agree. I have tried many many MMOs over the years and enjoy playing them solo (yeah sorry, I'm one of those) all the way up to end game, where suddenly you're no longer super powerful and locked out of progression without accepting the multiplayer experience. At this point I see no reason to play. But there are a few where I have been lucky enough to join an active guild and got to enjoy interacting with them. Meridian 59, DAoC, Eve Online, Warhammer Online... these to me are MMOs I list as my favourite that I played, and all have in common that I was lucky enough to be part of a guild/corp that made that experience what it was. Not the game. Playing those games post guild break up? Didn't last more than a couple of days.

[mikonson]

He needs to answer this question again, but without the whole "friends" part.

[Phirestar]

In my case, it’s even more special when the MMO is the _reason_ that you have friends in the first place. Or to be more specific, *a* friend. The _only_ friend that I had, for about 8 years.

Basically RuneScape was the support beam holding me up during my entire middle & high school years. That’s why it remains my favorite game of all time today, and why nothing can ever realistically top the impact that it had on my life.

[androsh]

Only Josh can give that kind of answer and be wholesome about it.

[WakoDoodle]

I generally make friends online working towards the same goal or doing a minigame together. Like fishing in wow, woodcutting in runescape or world bosses in gw2. Generally any game where people talk to strangers because they happened to be there.

I have no idea why it has died out though. Is it walkthroughs to blame? Ppl alt+tabbing instead of talk? Maybe paranoia to actually talk to a stranger? Granted I was scared talking during the early days (especially in runescape) but after a while it gets easier and you learn from others. If you fail, just make a joke or laugh at yourself; everyone like someone who doesn't take things seriously. ^^

[CoreChamber]

What is Josh Strife's best MMORPG? That is the real question asked?

[Hysorn]

Just realized I don't got any friends that play MMOs... Damn, probably the reason why I am always hopping in and out of different MMOs and usually quit during progression since I never really feel like making friends on my guild, FC or what have you.

[lordshaxx]

What is this Friends you are talking about and where can I download it?

[azzy]

Objectively though if you had to weigh the qualites of an MMO what are the aspects that could make it the best it can be and what MMO has the most of them

[nakano]

He does have a point.
At one point when playing Ragnarok Online, I was having fun with the grinding, because I were in a party with nice people in it, so we kept chatting while killing Rockers.
That was fun.

[johanlahti]

There are too many MMORPG's now. Splits an allready niche player base into even smaller chunks.

[kindred]

I really want to get into mmos but i struggle to get into them on my own and i dont have friends that play mmos. I wish i got that childhood experience of playing mmos with friends and doing fun quests with them.

[MRRED-bkhb]

Solo players:
what is this "Friends" you speak of? Is it a new word?

[nineonine]

Josh made a critical mistake, assuming we have friends.

[Dodogama]

"Personal enjoyment"
Yes.

"and friends."
😭
