What was your biggest MMO disappointment?

I'd have to go with GW2. It was so promising but the lack of skills, mixing classes, no rewards after level 80, and pseudo action combat really wasn't what I thought it was gonna be. No sub so worth the purchase but it felt very average.

Another big disappointment!
Yup another let down.
They are both ok games but not what they could be. D&D could make such an awesome mmo but never really realized in DDO and Neverwinter.
The shutdown of CoX.
Hadn't played it in a good long time, but I will definitely always miss it. Up yours, NCSoft.
Self-pity imprisons us in the walls of our own self-absorption. The whole world shrinks down to the size of our problem, and the more we dwell on it, the smaller we are and the larger the problem seems to grow.
Much like LOTRO I have mixed feelings about SWTOR. It is a good game for what it is. Like many I knew what SWTOR would be but I wanted it more like SWG. SWTOR as an open world sandbox mmo would be great.
Vanguard
Asheron's Call 2

SW:TOR
It made the most obvious of rookie mistakes it was sickening. It was honestly like they didn't do one second of homework on the history of MMOs and obvious mistakes that had been made in the past.

1. M$ stopping development of mythica
2. istaria (horizons) leaving idea of world progression based on players actions (players as a whole, not a single person)

My opinion
Agreed, Vanguard could have been such a great game. I really like Asheron's Call 2 however one Friday night during primetime play of about 4 hours I never saw another player or any chat. I was so lonely and never logged in again. This thread is getting me depressed but it is interesting.
Hard to say... probably SWTOR, I followed the game for 3 years and thought it would be something special at the time.
I'm done with MMO's at least for a while.
I played WOW everyday for about 6 years then I took an almost 2 year break and decided to come back. I am approaching it almost as a first time experience and I am really having fun. I am not judging it on what it was or the changes just playing what is there.
Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.
Five is right out.

This and FFXIV 1.0.
It was as bad as flushing my money down the toilet.
