the game play isent even that good because when u get 2 lvl 60 u have 2 by BC to get 2 lvl 70 and after u get 2 lvl 70 u dont have anything 2 do xcept start over with a new char!
Alright first off. I have played everything from UO beta to LOTRO and everything in between. WoW is better than 80% of all mmo's, but not because of subscribers. I will be honest, I hate WoW with a passion because it introduced a lot of people to mmo's that just ruin the communities. I still can't deny that it is probably the most polished and smooth mmo out there. I would much rather play DAOC or <insert other game>, but everyone I have played with since 1997 still plays WoW so I am stuck there. These players that were PKers back in UO 1997. I understand a lot of them didn't stick with WoW, but the majority DID. That has to show you something since we were searching for a home for a long long time after UOR. If you step back, and look at the things that an mmo are supposed to be graded on. Stability, Things to do with other players, all that gay D&D concept stuff.....WoW wins...unfortunately.
WoW is not that good because the $15 a month fee! the game play isent even that good because when u get 2 lvl 60 u have 2 by BC to get 2 lvl 70 and after u get 2 lvl 70 u dont have anything 2 do xcept start over with a new char!
And you didnt have to buy 100000x expansions to level up in Everquest?....please....move on

thats all you can do at 70? hasnt changed much since i quit and max was 60
One more thing....all you new MMO players that say 'ITS JUST LIKE WOW, OMG IT RIPPED OFF WOW'. You are making all of us who still play WoW look like **cktards, so please....learn your MMO history before opening your mouths....try wikipedia look for mmo's

Thats all you can do in any MMO....everquest releases an expansion...you get more gear blah blah till the next one. DAOC releases an expansion you get more gear and pvp until the next expansion....so on and so on. That whats MMO's are. Doing dungeons for gear and pvping if its availible. It is ALWAYS more of the same when an expansion comes out. Nothing makes WoW different than that
right now RIGHT NOW. EQ2 how the hell is EQ2 up there? The game was based off WoW after it was released, when it was releaseld it was a crappy version of EQ 1 sony patched up EQ2 to become a WOW like game. And dont say it didnt because it did. WoW gets no respect it deserves its a very fun game and though end game tends to lack WoW is still a blast. EQ2 armor all looks the same, clay models its horrible.

Apparently only one other person in this thread actually looked at the ratings. Guild Wars is ranked #1 with 8.3, the next thirteen games are all tied at 8.2.
In other words, the "Highest Ranked MMORPGs" list is not in any particular order.
If you want to pretend World of Warcraft is above Everquest II on the list, go right ahead. It makes no difference because they have the same rating.
To have so many games supposedly tied is rather suspicious, but that's another topic.
i love how every wow fanboi thinks every game has stolen everything from wow and wow is totaly original.
daoc completly demolishes wow in the rvr aspect of the game and people say daoc stole wow's instancing system, daocs instancing system was implimented before wow even came out.
anyways daoc is a much better game then wow, although wow has brought some stuff to the mmo world, it is still a very boring game
good things from wow are only that it has a very clean UI and slightly changed how quests work. Instanced rvr is retarded tho, straight up

Actually they are listed in aparticualr order. The ratings only go by 1 decimal place but the positioning takes into account more than 1 decimal place. Its jsut that we dont see it.

I agree, but the thing is DAOC player base pretty much died. I mean yeah the classic server has a decent amount of people, but not enough =( DAOC is amazing when it comes to RvR, but its glory days are over.

Crafting goes hand in hand with PVE and instancing. Can't really do one without the others.

I have recently given up wow, but I have played lots of other MMO's, and thats all you do at the max 'level' of any game in this genre. Some games coat it over with player housing, or some other complete waste of time but the fact is. If your playing WoW or any other MMORPG and your at the max level you probably have plenty of free time to GRIND becuase MMO's come down to that. GRINDING, your grinding an instance, a select few mobs, a node for your precious mats whatever. If you cant accept that in an endless game your going to be doing the same things over and over to move on in your character progression you shouldn't be playing mmo's. Yes, every game will have a few things that the game is built around as what your going to be doing at max level, like it or not in wow it's those, and it wont change no matter how many expansions come out.
Back on subject, the OP is right to the extent that WoW does deserve to be over a few of the games rated higher then it.
Anyway, I am done with this thread....I hate what WoW has done to the mmo community. I still can't say that it isn't the best out there right now in terms of programming and implementation. You WoW fanbois can continue to say 'OMG EVERYTHING WAS STOLEN FROM WOW WOW WAS THE FIRST GAME EVER' and you anti-wowers can be like 'OMG WOW SUCKS ITS BORING YOU DO THE SAME THINGS ALL THE TIME' and I will sit back and play WoW because I enjoy playing with my friends.

if 8 million people come and vote WoW being the best i wouldnt mind. but have fun trying to get those 5 million asians to understand what your trying to get them to do.
played wow in the beginning.. borring. Its a game with a bunch of people corpse camping and using mass cheats. Why vote for a POS last i remember reading the original creators arent even their anymore.
Actually . . . he is kind of correct. For the most part, all this site is is a refuge for ex UO and SWG players.
And they whine alot.
So says the person with a PIG as their Display Pic...
I must say, I've actually seen the light. WoW players are so busy having no life, playing the game non-stop (many dieing in the process), that they can't even come to a site to vote for "the best game." But wait, that makes no sense. If it's so wonderful and everyone is supposedly all-for it, what's the OP even doing on here? What are any of the WoW players doing on here?! Wake up call! Your game isn't rated the best, deal with it.

How dare you if i wernt a gentlemen id slap you all in the face but this is not a threat cause iam a gentlemen and wont slap you all in the face.
First of laddy WoW is a close of every other succesful PvE game that came before it. Low score on both originality and creativity.
Its fun if you dont mind the tedious and threadmill like gameplay. Low score for gameplay there IMO. There are millions of people playing it so it gets high marks for that. But the gameplay itself will also one day be its undoing. So I would give it a mid level score for that.
The mmorpg poll isnt based on what is the most popular, its based on what people think of the game in question's quality.

And to be perfectly honest with you, like I said, I vist this site while I am at work. I also visit this site while traveling between cities. SO I guess only WoW players use alt+tab now.
I did not say it should be rated the best. I can deal with that. I am just tired of all the hate and trolling on both sides, but mostly the hate WoW side.

Sorry, just felt I could do a little wake-up thingy, every single game on this site has haters just like the WoW haters. And they are all just as frustrating.
If you feel WoW has more, well what might that be because of? Because more people are involved around WoW than any other MMORPG. So there's the reason.
