I liked all games, but D3 for me was the worst. Honestly, I have to say GW2 is the best for the sake it's only B2P, and I believe many companies should follow it's business model.
2012 is the worst year for mmorpg world because all these new games (patches) suck !! (I think)
I know Most of these games just SUCK! but pick one
1. The poll is flawed because it does not include ALL MMOs released in 2012 (f2p, b2p, subs, browser)
2. It appears that no one could play all the games listed in the poll for a sufficient time to determine whether or not they are the "worst" of 2012.
3. There are no selections for "none of the above" nor "other, please specify."
4. If you think TSW belongs on any "worst" list, then i must assume that the poll creator is goofy.
TSW does belong on the list....It didn't even meet half of what its own company expected and has pretty much put them up for sale.....Add in lousy combat, animations, little or no multiplayer, and horrific PVP and you have a strong candidate for worst game of 2012.
Do you own the game or played it? If not then stop typing.. I don't even play the game anymore and I can tell you that you're wrong. Just like I don't play Rift anymore but will correct anyone claiming that it's bad.
Look, he isnt wrong. I like tsw, i plan on getting it since it ie going b2p now. However, he isnt wrong in that the general gaming population deemed it unworthy (it only got 200000 sales) and it failed. So obviously, there was something wrong with its implementation. It is completely justified to be on here.
Yeah there was something wrong all right. TSW wasn'tt made for mass consumption like GW2. FC never claimed they are going to beat WOW like Mike O brian did. So yep FC did do something wrong .

and GW2 either
and actually GW2 sold more copies than MoP
and dont forget GW2 was not released in asia yet and everyone know it have huge playerbase

I am talking about total playerbase of WOW not just sales of one expansion.
However, FC made a MMO with a niche settings which was not made for Mc Donald generation. So ofcourse they were never going to sell in millions.
Last time i checked MOP sold 2.7 million copies (could be higher) and GW2 sold above 2 million. So if you got any official info please share but still it doesn't change the fact that you are comparing sales of one MMO with an exapnsion of 8 year old game. Nothing to brag about here.
I think that about says it all. Biggest goddamn failure in the history of gaming.
Best game ever I have played, more polished, fun, bug free, incredible voice acting (now in other games I just press accept), incredible music, sw feeling, .... But it looks pvp and endgame had a lot of problem which I would not know as I do not care.
Of the games that I played on that list, I chose Tera. I'm sure there are those who disagree with me and that's ok. This is an opinion poll anyway.
I didn't play SWTOR so I couldn't vote for it. *shrugs* I don't know if it's the big stinker everyone says it is. I just wasn't interested in playing it.
TERA was the weakest title I played this year, compared to SWTOR and TSW but none of them held my interest for more than a few months and I ended up back in EVE. Although I did not play GW2 my son did and from what I have seen looking over his shoulder the people voting it as worst are probably being a bit disingenuous.

In expectation terms there's no way to surpass SWTOR for failed expecations.
One or two of the main developers/publishers publically stated they would compete and possibly surpass WoW numbers , implying they'd get and retain 10 million ish subscribers.
No other developer or publisher has stated something like that in recent years.
2012 was a fantastic year for MMORPGs. While I can't say I've played every game on the list, I know enough to say that if you think any of them deserve a 'worst of 2012' title you should probably drop the genre for a bit since you're probably burnt out.

lol, good point. Fail poll is fail

Planetside 2.
That SOE is even allowed to bring in another 'game' in this world is unbelievable.

Diablo 3!
After years of developing of this game and diablo fans get so excited just to give them dissappointment?
Man you will play this game like your not Online, repeating the whole scenes and quests are the most annoying for this game.
Diablo 3 should win since it isn't an mmorpg, wouldn't this make it the worst?
I still think the Sims online was the worst failure in gaming history, but it is probably debatable.
Poll is flawed, SWTOR came out last year and D3 is not an MMO.
So with that I picked Tera but PS2 is a very close 2nd.
Sandbox means open world, non-linear gaming PERIOD!
Subscription Gaming, especially MMO gaming is a Cash grab bigger then the most P2W cash shop!
Bring Back Exploration and lengthy progression times. RPG's have always been about the Journey not the destination!!!
Where is the WarZ option? Doesn't that one take the cake for "Worste MMORPG of 2012"?
After that I'd have to say SWTOR, the freemium transformation is the most horrific I've seen so far.
No that should go to either DF or MO.

I understand this, but SWTOR launched in NA/EU with only 11 days left until it was 2012. And it launched March 1 2012 in Australia.
I just can't wrap my head around seeing votes for anything relating to SWTOR (an MMO!) in the year 2011.
Which reminds me...SWTOR GOTY 2011.

SWTOR is the worst morpg ive played in the last 10 years and I played some bad ones.

Diablo 3 isn't an mmorpg, and SWTOR was the worse, imo.
