Just name one....
Here we go, my choice is
The Elder Scrolls Online
Best MMO experiences : EQ(PvE), DAoC(PvP), WoW(total package) LOTRO (worldfeel) GW2 (Artstyle and animations and worlddesign) SWTOR (Story immersion) TSW (story) ESO (character advancement)

Warlords of Draenor, but also Destiny (not technically an MMO) and Diablo 3 expac (also not technically an MMO)

Because I think ESO is a trainwreck in waiting and EQN is not coming out this year. Not a crafter and I hated minecraft so Landmark gets no hype from me.
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!!!
Same, hoping it makes it to BETA, this new round of kick starter and Green Light should help but I am not holding my breath.
If you want a new idea, go read an old book.
In order to be insulted, I must first value your opinion.
Probably "The Division" since it is coming to PC now.
ESO is a failed experiment to go heavy themeparky and trying to bring in multiple crowds while still not honoring the original IP concept of Elder Scrolls, so no go there.
The Repopulation would have been my choice if they had been using a different engine than Hero Engine. Hero Engine is very, "Waxy" feeling when you work on it. Not a very good choice for an engine tbh.
I'm not anticipating much for 2014.
I guess I'll keep an eye on Elder Scrolls Online and Wildstar but I doubt I'll play either outside of the betas. EQ:Landmark interests me but I'm not sure how it'll qualify as an MMO yet
for 2015 it's EQ:Next and Warhammer 40.000: Eternal Crusade all the way.
I only heard of The Repopulation yesterday and it certainly has many interesting sandbox features but you can see from a mile away that it's going to be buggy and unfinished at launch so I'll just wait a year or two before I venture into that mess
The Division
Destiny
Elder Scrolls Online
Fine, we'll compromise. I'll get my way & you'll find a way to be okay with that.
This for the moment, but I'll wait and see how the cash shop pans out before even trying it.
Absolutely positively nothing. Unless something is brewing with zero press coverage I cannot see myself parting with a dollar or 1mb of hard drive space for the drivel that these companies are pushing out their doors.

According to the devs Destiny is not an MMO and is not coming to the pc. Just sayin....
My vote goes to hoping Black Desert gets here in some capacity. Other than that very disappointed with a few betas I was in for some big name titles coming out this year. Wish there was something to look forward to
Close enough.
Destiny is listed here just like D3.
Well, the biggest thing that has my curiosity this year is the fact that AO actually has a replacement engine in beta.
I want to see WOW:WoD too.
I am hoping runescape will get it's act back together this coming year. 2013 was supposed to be "the year of the players" and they fell painfully short (it's at the very least good on their part to full admit to this). The HTML5 failure especially, was really disappointing. They did a lot of hard work on that, so that runescape could be ported out to tablets, smart phones and other devices. And, it simply didn't come to fruition. They were shooting to high, support for what they want to introduce simply isn't there yet. So, while the HTML5 beta is still open, live with the current game, and playable...It remains laggy and terrible. So Runescape3 is left essentially half-finished and may be so for another 2-3 years.
But, my hope comes from what's going on starting in January of the new year. The Runescape team will be adding an in-game guaranteed content polling system in which the players will take partial control of the development. No around 7 development decisions in varying ranges of game impact will be made by the players each month. The players by voting will now have the ability to instruct development on where to focus. The feed-back forum mod team is supposed to be stepping up their game as well. There should also be a much greater degree of player submitted content and support for it. I am hoping this will be a really good year for runescape (something of a redemptive year).
