I tried the free trial of Black Desert Online, but I couldn't get into it... I'll have to try again at a later time. TERA is okay if you want to stall while you wait for a better MMO to come out... I guess I'd have to go with 5.

I dinked around in GW2 for the Halloween and Christmas events and to check out the gliding system. Other than that I didn't really play any MMOs at all this and last year. I stopped right after the holidays got patched out.
Out of those 4, Blade and Soul, but only by the slimmest of margins. TERA doesn't have a good enough PvE frame for its combat system (which is less action-packed than Blade and Soul's to begin with). Black Desert is beautiful and has great combat, but is one of the most mundane, trite MMOs I've ever played. WildStar is missed potential all around. Blade and Soul has lackluster PvE, but it at least has pretty strong arena PvP; they should have just saved on the budget and made it a lobby PvP game from the start.
I'm going to have to (surprising no one) lean towards Guild Wars 2 followed by The Secret World and ESO. They're the only real non-subscription MMOs on the market that seem to respect the consumer and provide a fair all-around experience. Though each of them still has its problems. Guild Wars 2's PvP side is lacking class balance and mode variety. ESO has a terrible starting experience and the terrible combat that one would expect of an Elder Scrolls game. The Secret World has godawful PvP and one of the worst combat systems of the past decade.
Can't say I'd prefer any of those choices.. I'd prefer the return of City of Heroes.. or Tabula Rasa.. I miss them.. Excuse me a moment.. I think I have something in my eye..

The only game I'm playing at the moment that isn't a single player game is EQ2. It has more to offer than any game released since then. Which is really sad if you think about it.
Blade & Soul is good but the game lack of new players in the 'newbie maps' thus you are difficult to run dungeons. Furthermore, the 'bot characters' inside are more than human players.
IMO.. BDO got better skill animation which I prefer in game. Or else, you can take FF XIV
Out of those I like Black Desert: I played Tera quite a bit when it first came out and thought it was great as well. They are very different games though.

If i was to spark one up it would ffxi.
If ffxi was not around hen i would be stuck with a linear questing game and choose eq2 and easily.
After that i would choose ffxiv.
After those 3 ...nothing could hold my interest more than 15 minutes.
