MMORPG.COM rates MMOs based on eight factors: Graphics, Fun, Sound, Community, Role-Playing, Performance/Lag, Value and Service.

Which ones are most important to you? List them from Most to Least.

1. Fun

2. Graphics

3. Performance/Lag

4. Community

5. Sound

6. Service

7. Role-Playing

8. Value

The notion that graphics, or anything else for that matter, are anywhere near as important as gameplay/fun is so utterly ridiculous that anyone who shares such a view should be placed in an asylum.

    I agree with Gameplay being #1 and find it funny its not part of mmorpg.com's rating system. Something that is the most important to me is that the gameplay presents a challenge to the players. Whichever that fits under...

    Gameplay = Fun

    It's not rocket science.

    1. Fun/Overall gameplay, not all mmorpg's i have played where/are great as a total game experiance but most of them had segements i really enjoye('d)
    2. Graphics/Sounds
    3. Community/Roleplaying fit together for me
    4. Service is only partial importent, never run into much trouble using service and not expecting service to move worlds for me
    5. Value actualy fits into 1/2/3/4 together

    I'd like to wedge innovation somewhere in the ranking, probably 2 or 3.  If I wanted to play the same game I wouldn't buy or play the new ones.

    Naff categories imo. Here are some ideas of additional ones:

    1. PvE- Grouping, soloing, Raiding
    2. PvP
    3. Exploring
    4. Grind
    5. Guild activities
    6. Replay Value
    7. Lore

    My list:

     

    1. Fun

    2. Community

    3. Service ( this includes ongoing development and world events for me; a static world is boring )

    4. Role-Playing

    5. Graphics (functional clean graphics are more important to me than eye-candy)

    6. Performance

    7. Sound

    8. Value (???)
