WoW was my introduction to MMOs, and ive never really replaced it, despite trying out ff and eso. That voids still unfilled, but I have picked up Warframe, which i suppose might technically count, but its not quite the same - third person mission based sci fantasy shooter doesnt quite scratch the same itch, but it is an mmo.
Great quests, i really enjoy them when they come in.
Labyrinthine progression system, im currently building a new class so that i can generate an Impact weapon and then i'll throw the class into the dumpster, absorb its power blue-mage style, slap it on a different class, and use an upgrade from another part of the game to turn that impact weapon into an energy generator, slap the ability on another class i like, and use the impact energy generator fueled ability to set up a whip attack that needs enemies affected by the blue maged impact energy weapon fueled ability to farm another - ok ill stop, but its this kind of game.
The space hats are good and pretty to look at. most important part imo.

Started festia online and I really like it! But I'm new and I'm lost.
Star Citizen is my guilty pleasure. Get online with a group of friends and do some missions, emersion style, role play hijinks. The space elevator of death will forever be in our hearts.
Honestly, the only game that’s scratched that old MMO itch for me is Old School Runescape.
But, by and large… it’s not an MMO. Give this video a watch!
I was playing to Elder Scrolls but they revamped the interface and since it's horrible.

HorizonXI. It's a classic Final Fantasy XI server.
I grew up playing XI and wanted to get back into it, but the retail server is a solo experience these days. Horizon has been incredible to relive my childhood on Horizon, and the community is amazing. It's certainly not for everyone but I'm so glad to have it in my life.
I was lucky in that the ffxi US beta was my first dive into an MMO. And I think it's one of the best games ever, but the harsh reality is that it's hard and tedious, especially for folks who only have experience with super hand holdy MMOs like they mostly are today. If you can get into it, it can be like crack, but I really feel like most people won't have the patience for it these days.
This isn't me saying don't try it. Try it for sure. Just be ready for a huge time sink. It doesn't help you at all.
I absolutely agree. XI is hard and a huge time sync. I don't think most gamers would enjoy it at all, and most of my enjoyment comes from nostalgia and the sense of community.
- Star Wars Galaxies, A New Hope launched in July and doesn't have any of the BS restrictions in place like SWGEMU does. Play on multiple toons, use of macros and scripts, ultimate fun.
I was playing Wrath Classic when it came but the wow token and GDKPs absolutely killed the experience. Wow itself has had some good changes and announcements lately, it might be worth revisiting that a little to see if you might be interested again.
Another option is Hardcore, which does somewhat feel interesting and old school again.
Anymore, occasionally, I'll hop back into Wakfu or I'll play Dofus Touch on my phone. Otherwise I don't play MMOs at all.
