Okay, so quite often there is posts like "What is the best MMORPG" and "What MMORPG would suit me".
So, i've thougth of an alternative idea to that.
- Promote your MMORPG-
It's quite simple.
You state what MMORPG you are playing, and then you throw a couple of comments about the game in general(Note: Do not put comments like: It rocks, It's the best, or BEST MMORPG EVARR LOLOLOLOL), like: How is the PvE? How is the PvP? How is the visual side?
That was only poorly and quickly thougth out comments ofcourse, feel free to add your own.
Well, let's get started
Comments
Im looking forward to Ragnarok Online 2, and here is why:
-Environments look incredible like super stunning with HDRI Lighting and Normal Mapping. They obviously made some color decisions and thought them out, it has a great aesthetic sense while still taking advantage of the latest graphical coding.
-Combat, movements, and effects have been improved with wooshy things when you running and high combat speeds; not to mention WASD controls and the ability to jump which most who have played 2d Isometric games is one of the things you have always wanted to do.
-Yokko Kanno is composing 92 tracks in this game. Thats a major woot, which means this mmo will definetly appeal to Anime fans. Ohh ya its an anime based game for sure, so if you don't like anime this isn't for you.
-Ohh its impossible for classes to be unbalanced since you can switch your class (also you can apply skills that you learned from other classes to your existing class) I guess how it works would be confusing if you havent played RO.
-Equipment levels with you. No longer will you have to grind the same MVP to get that uber sword, instead you have to grind yourself, then find the uber mineral and refine your level 30 class A sword into Ultra Uber Class S sword level 1.
But i'd like to point out, that my intentions with this thread was to promote MMORPG's you was currently playing, so 'homeless' MMORPG gamers could look through this thread, look at people's different opinions about games, and then make their decision based on that
Promoting not-released MMORPG's only makes my gamer-soul scream in agony, as it wants to try it out.
Still I am looking forward to the next string of mmo's, Ragnarok Online 2 mainly to have a more light hearted feel to an mmo; so many mmo's out there are overly serious and thats not too fun. Also looking forward to features in other upcoming games like territory conquest that means something instead of hahaha I pwn so much I get this cool things; and also player run governments.

I (and many
players with me) like the very addictive game play, together with the PvP. Yes,
it's hardcore player versus player. No it's not a fighting game 100%. It
involves a lot of strategy and long-term reflection. You have to plan ahead.
And in a way that's not true. There are two types of servers. Perma's
(never-ending servers, each of them quite unique) and rebangs (servers that can
last up to 18 days, and the highest ranking players are rewarded with a medal,
a status symbol) both have similar game play and goals but both are equally
accessible.
You can
team up in corporations, which is VERY much fun. And you can fight over
galactic domination. This isn't like in other mmo's where the devs
"create" wars, regions and such to get players to fighting. In SGE
you can decide that yourself. And thus an average server is filled with
politics and intrigue, wars and strives for power.
You might
think that this is a hard-ass community, aiming for the demise of their
fellow-players.
Big
mistake. The community is one of the most open ones around by far. It's
possible to encounter the wrong person, but unlikely. Since MANY people are
really willing to help you out as new player. And continue to do that, since
there's so much to learn.
It seems a
simplistic game, but it isn't. You can get to Galactic domination in a lot of
ways.
One other
thing: There's a really close contact with the devs. They often listen and they
tend to tell why they implement certain changes.
There's a
steep learning curve. Although the devs did the effort to implement a tutorial.
It's not a kiddie game, be warned.
The
community is dedicated, but this brings with it that some players get upset if
the devs change some things. Remember, it involves work to build up an Empire.
And it's never fun to see your massive creation damaged by outer-game changes.
So this tends to get out some rivalry between players. Some that supports the
devs and others that question their judgement. But this only shows how much
there is to care about this game.
In conclusion...
You'd be a fool not to give it a serious try. Warning: Your social life can die
because of this game. Soon wars and power will be more addictive than...
Food...
It's
ultimately worth it to venture in a game that has stronger territorial wars
than many BIG-budget games. The graphics are decent and functional.
To add:
I've played many mmo's, and I've especially sought to find the PvP ones. SGE is a game in which you can create your own window of opportunity in epic wars. But these wars aren't faceless, since corps are fairly small (limited in number) teams.
And people aren't faceless eithe. You can stand out fairly quick, maybe because it's quite a small community.
SGE is like EVE, you either hate it or you like it. But you have to spend time with it.
Don't hesitate to ask questions.

Keep 'em coming(Small bump)
Soon will be playing Rise Online World though. It's basically an updated/enhanced versions of Knight Online World. Currently in Alpha.
AoC and Warhammer were two highly hyped games...After both of those failed hard, I no longer fall for the hype anymore.
They didn't fail for me though, I really enjoyed AoC for many years. Warhammer I played less, but now on the private Returning of Reckoning server... I really get my RvR fix on. Those were solid MMORPGS for me at least.
TSW is still there for the diehards last I knew. If they finally put it down SWL will likely still be around for those that can get over it.
Probably the best RvR open pvp mmo ive played.
Well balanced pvp. Very interesting combos.
Simple straightforward war.Everyone knows where to go once they look at the war map.
Enough decision pathways during the war sequence for each faction, so that there is always interesting shouting/ discussion on what to do next.
Simple appealing gfx, very relaxing environment.
Very casual and chill community/game style. war or not, everyone can still enjoy the chat and relaxing environments.
How is the PvE? Well, this is a pvp game. The pve is mainly just filler.
How is the PvP? See above.
How is the visual side? See above.
