    How on earth is anyone going to give you an objective, helpful answer to so broad a question?

    Why do you want to play any of these games? What kinds of games do you typically enjoy? What are you looking for?

    If you give helpful information, you'll get helpful responses.

    All depends how much time u got on ur hands. L2 is an all out pvp game that requires alot of work to get to the top, but its worth getting there. The game its self wasn't good at the begining but has continuosly been making it self a much more fun game. If ur looking for a game to stick around in go to L2.

    WoW is a much more carebear game if ur looking for a part time game its a good chioce u dont have to play it much to get something out of it. I on the other hand cant stand the 2 sided faction wars in which there is no real gain or loss except for battle grounds but i never stuck around for that.

    eve never played it no opinion.

    Well... what other games do you like or play? Its hard (except for a fanboy) to reccomend a game to you when we have no idea what kind of games you like to play.

    WoW is good for a starter MMORPG, but it lacks any real content aside from questing and fighting. People will say it has a deep crafting system or something else but it really doesnt. Its very simple, straight forward and at least for awhile, fun.

    EVE is a game that requires a lot of time. That isnt to say you need to spend hours a day playing to accomplish something, it just takes a lot longer to get to the end game content than say WoW. Its a great game though, it has an extremly steep learning curve and can be slow and monotonous but the depth, community and content are just great. It has open PVP but there are enough safe zones that you can stay away from getting ganked by people with nothing better to do for quite sometime, and when you are ready to enter the deadlier depths of space, youll hopefully have a joined a corp that will help you out along the way.

    Lineage 2... I cant really reccomend. The gameplay is very dumbed down and you will spend a lot of time killing the same monsters over and over just to level or get that next weapon/armor (which takes a long time since money is hard to come by and drops are fairly rare). Its open PVP so you can fight anyone almost anywhere. It has a huge amount of land to explore, and there are castle sieges but other than that, nothing really. It also has quite possibly the worst character customization (at least in terms of looks) out of any MMORPG on the market. Some people like it, but doesnt suite me.

    eve online  has nothing to do with grinding, just making cash and gaining power over other players in the galaxy!

     

    Also eve oline is an all out unforgiving PVP game, no carebear crap :P Players will scam you if you let them because nothing is against the rules

    At the beggining L2 sucked, but it has came a long way and is alot better game now.

    If I am to compare them in a perfectly fair and logical manner then I would say that EVE easily owns WoW and L2!
