I know someone on this forum that really loves animated squirrels.
So much so that a game is doomed if they arent animated right.
So will you guys please direct me toward a mmo with the best animated squirrels?
Thank you in advance

Not sure about squirrels but LOTRO has a ton of deer and fox. They are always fun to 1 shot when running around with a group full of RL women.
LOL as you most likely already know RIFT. Try the dancing with squirrels achievement, also the QQ me a river achievement, by collecting squirrel tears. Im betting $100 you already knew this though. :P
LOL! It can't be Rift...
They light them on fire in rift...

I hear that Rifts has some squirrels but word of mouth is that they suck.
Yeah sadly they are right.
Squirrel animations were clearly not the most important thing for Trion to work on.
Its cool though... how many other games have flaming squirrels?

No way Fire squirrels are way cute and they are incendary by nature just thought i'd clear that up, don't want animal rights on Trions back do we
As a way of showing how truly important Squirrels are too mmos. I will keep my new Squirrel Icon up on these forums until Rifts earl start on Feb 24th. As a reminder that animated squirrels need love too!!!!

RIFT humanoid graphics are great, but the non-humanoid...not so much.
C'mon, if one could consider them a form of squirrel - Leets from AO are the best. The double entendre as well just makes them lulawesome.
I miss the MMORPG genre. Will a developer ever make one again?

Squirrels? Well if you like battling adorable critters that go up to your ankle, FFXIV is the game for you. The game has about half a dozen varieties of squirrels and they can all mop the floor with low leveled characters. They're also decently animated.
See now im confused...
I was told awesome squirrel animations were required for a great mmo.
Yet FFXIV has the best squirrels i've ever seen and that game is pretty bad...
Was i lied too?

Yikes! Looks like a cross between a squirrel, rabbit, and a kangaroo.
Maybe this will inspire SW:TOR
Awesome!

Yea, it's really fun getting your ass whooped by a cuddly critter over and over again....Or having to battle with a sheep...
What were those people thinking man? Put real enemies in the game not fuzzy furries....

The main problem with most of the games mentioned so far is that they mostly just copied WoW's squirrel animations. When it released in 2004, WoW had the most polished squirrel animations to date. Unfortunately, now that it's so popular, everybody is just just copying WoW's cute critter animations instead of trying something different with their own style.
Imma call bull shit on this one. First game with squirrels in it was NOT wow... Try nexus. Right when you get in game you have to go around and kill a bunch of squirrel with a wooden stick. So I guess wow copied them huh?

I never said WoW was first, just that they were more polished. WoW basically took the best squirrel animations around and the time and refined them to a level that hadn't been delivered before.
I'm gonna have nightmares about this.
This guy is particularly vicious, he one-shotted me the first time I battled it:
Come on, 12 million people play WOW, because it has the best squirrels there are:
