  Oh how I miss the crafting days of UO, why is it so hard to find a crafting mmo?  Im so tired of playing games that have a watered down crafting system. A crafting system where the items are pointless and never live up to mob droped items. I also like horizons, had a wonderful crafting system, to bad the adventuring didnt take off.  I like wow, but the crafting systems sucks imho. Some people have suggested that I try some Koren games, and i wasnt in to them. Any games coming out that might feel my hunger, what are your opinions?

    Have you tried Ryzom? The crafting is hard to beat.

    Vanguard's crafting is pretty damned good.  It's the first time in a game I'm crafting because I like it, not because I have to.  There are different grade tools, clothing etc etc.  Also many crafting quests for really high end gear.  You can craft the typical MMO stuff like weapons, armor, jewelry, but also stuff you only see in a few MMO's like boats and houses.  Quality grades from low to high are D, C, B, A and pristine.  You can use enhancements to the material you use to give the end product new qualities.  The crafting itself is a mini game.  You take it step by step and run across complications along the way which you have to clear.  You have a certain amount of action points, the more you spend the higher the quality of the item, if you spend more than your alotted points you fail.  It's kind of fun.  If you enjoy crafting it's definately worth a look.  Check out one of the affiliated sites, they'll elaborate more on the subject.  Good luck.

    You could try wurmonline. Its very heavy with crafting.

    Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL!

    Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction :)

    Honestly though you could craft orange items with that system, and you had some control of the results.  I wish more games used a similar crafting system, or used a crafting system at all.  Most of the time when I was playing D2:LOD I was just trying to get the damn gems for my crafting recipies.  The games now are all about farming uniques *bleh*.  -_-

    EverQuest II, Saga of Ryzom and Star Wars: Galaxies all had impressive crafting systems to me.



    SWG had the best one by far, but since the game is borked now you may not be interested.

    Ryzom has a realistic approach - when you kill a rat you don't find a pair of boots in it's stomach.  You take its fur and you make your own boots.

    EverQuest II - I enjoyed the interactive crafting system, but I'm just not a fan of the game with it's gathering system (farming), economy and combat.
