AoC looks best. Vanguard and LOTRO looks quite nice too but nowhere close. Just look on it

"Hello person posting on a site specifically for MMO's in a thread on a sub forum specifically for a particular game talking about meta features and making comparisons to other titles in the genre, and their meta features.
I'm buliding a new PC soon and want to try a new MMO that will really wow me graphically. I know that graphics aren't an MMO's strong suit, but they're my favorite genre of game. So what MMOs are very graphically impressive on their highest settings? Thanks!
Age of Conan is the only game that will challenge a high end rig. I have a powerful PC and I still dont have AoC on full settings. The graphics are staggering and even after 6 months I am still shocked at how an mmo can look this good. Small details like paintings in dungeons look real and the ground even close up is detailed with 3d grooves.
Other games that look nice but not even close are EVE, LotRO and possibly Vanguard. But for me its AoC all the way.
Agree with Cryses its by far, hands down, AoC. I'm going to start playing it again, I miss the good atmospheric sound and fx, world feels alive. TcoS is interesting from an artistic perspective but as for realism and grit, AOC takes the cake.

Requiem isn't the nicest F2P game graphically. There are plenty alongside requiem. Rohan Blood Feud, Sword of the New World, etc
Age of Conan by far has the best graphics for an MMO. Theres nothing close to it.
I cant understand for the life of me why people play MMO's for graphics. After a while of looking at a game you dont even really notice graphics anymore. (atleast I dont anyways)
Waiting for:EQ-Next, ArcheAge (not so much anymore) Now Playing: N/A Worst MMO: FFXIV Favorite MMO: FFXI
I would have to say that Age of Conan with the dx10 all blown out is a super sweet looking game followed by Lord of the Rings. Vanguard is pulling a close third for me.
That Guild Wars 2 login screen knocked up my wife. Must be the second coming!

the best looking mmo is easily age of conan but lotro and eq2 both have very good graphics and both can be very pretty with the right computer

AoC really does have great graphics, and the gameplay isn't terrible. Vanguard is nice too, if it weren't so empty.

World of Warcraft is the best mmo out thier.
As much as I hate AoC I have to admit:

This made me laugh because 1. you mean there not their, 2. this is best "looking" and wow looks like crap...most MMOs do. AoC looks good in MMO terms.
Of the games I've played, the best graphically are in this order (IMO):
AoC (despite the characters having a waxy appearance and the game itself being lame)
LotRO
VG (despite stiff character animations)
EQ2
The best performing of those four is LotRO. Turbine's really optimized the game engine well. You get really nice graphics even on older machines.
Current: None
Played: WoW, CoX, SWG, LotRO, EVE, AoC, VG, CO, Ryzom, DF, WAR
Tried: Lineage2, Dofus, EQ2, CoS, FE, UO, Wurm, Wakfu
Future: The Repopulation, ArcheAge, Black Desert, EQN
For a free MMO, Guild Wars has beutiful graphics, very stunning. If your planning on paying, Age of Conan is good, same with LOTRO.
Currently Playing: MapleStory
Have Played: RuneScape, Guild Wars, WoW.
Waiting For: Guild Wars 2
then what else that F2P and the graphic is stunning else then GuildWars??
