    any game that has invisible walls, nothing annoys me more than if i want to jump off the bridge into water etc i get stuck!!!...

    This post is all my opinion, but I welcome debate on anything i have put, however, personal slander / name calling belongs in game where of course you're welcome to call me names im often found lounging about in EvE online.

    Age of Conan and the secret world, both feel like the worst gameplay I ever tried even cheap Asian f2p play better.

    Mmhh a Wildstar bashing thread ?

    I don't like Wildstar, but to think it's the worst means you really haven't played many mainstream MMORPGs. Wildstar would at worse be a "very polished turd" in a world of crappy, bugged, free to play money grabbing stinking turds.

    What's up with all those "validate my choices" posts recently, is it the proverbial XMas depression making people looking for pats in the back and "I agree with you" posts so much ?
    Someone got coal for Christmas if you read their posts lately....

    Ummm.... im torn between Wildstar, Tera, and Rift. There is also a bunch of korean F2P tosh out there but to me they arent mainstream enough to even bother mentioning.

    The gameplay in these 3 games is polished. They are the worst to me personally for other reasons.

    WAR. The game totally missed the feeling of the original IP, they changed the endgame from sieging 6 cities to fighting about towers a few months before launch and they cut out all interesting features they planned long before launch.

    There is a reason it isn't around anymore, taste do differ of course but WAR lost most of it's players in a speed we never seen since or before. That does tell us it wasn't good enough.

    Any game still up and running unless it constantly loses money can't really be the worst game out there, the real contendors are either gone or on life support.

    For me it's SWTOR.  This game has so many problems that I could write my next thesis paper on the things this game got wrong.

    If I thought a game had any real chance of being the worst mainstream MMORPG, I wouldn't play it, so I wouldn't know for sure.  Runescape is the worst MMORPG that I've played, but I have no doubt that there are many that are much worse.

    There is no best or worst game - what happens inevitably in threads like these - every game will eventually be listed.

    Your best game is someone else's worst game.
    that goes for pretty much any discussion on this message board really lol

    Is Scarlet Blade mainsteam? I'll go with that one and any other Barbie undress up MMO.

    As far as personal tastes go, I'd probably say EVE, its just not my thing.
    Most disappointing based on hyped expectations would be GW2 or TESO

    Not saying they're the worst for everyone, but personally i consider these 3 a mess.

    Going with WoW.  Not because I think it was a terrible design but because it effectively killed any semblance of originality, innovation and exploration in MMO design.  Every studio scrambled to get a piece of the "bread-crumb", linear, hand holding, quest centric pie.  Something I think the MMO genre will never be able to shake.  Long gone are the days when the 3 biggest MMO's on the market (Asheron's Call, Everquest, and Ultima Online) are universally and diametrically opposed to one another.  I don't think we'll ever see this type of fluidity and difference of design approach ever again.

    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!!!

    There's a difference between a mmo that has crappy game mechanics or a mmo that has got game mechanics I do not like. But there are far worse things than crappy game mechanics.... developers who make promises they know they wil not ever meet, developers who base their decisions on the vocal minority of their community. Then there's the greed of certain studios. Locking everything behind micro transactions and still claim their entire focus on improving the game experience of all.



    Based on what I wrote above I must nominate Rift and Archeage as being the worse mmos of the last 2 years. It's not hate on Trion, because Trove I actually enjoy.

    EQ

    - staring at spellbook
    - camping
    - kill stealing
    - ninjaing
    - waiting for boats
    - walk endlessly

    .. wait .. UO is worse .. PKing nonstop.

    I guess "worst" is subjective.
