Your Perfect Game

Everybody moans about some aspect of the game they play, and everybody likes at least something about the games they hate. If you could take parts from any game and make a completely new game, what would you take from where. What:

crafting system

housing system

combat system

economy

magic system

player interface

guild system

character gen

skill system

graphics

Go for it, who has the best in each of these areas? And why hasn't someone thought about doing it yet??

    housing = SWG

    Combat = GW, UXO

    Economy = SWG, GW

    magic = EQ

    Interface = WoW, UXO

    Guid = GW, EQ2

    Char Gen = EQ2

    Skill System = DAoC, SWG, EQ2, WoW

    graphics = EQ2, Lineage 2

    one that does not contantly nerf professions and has little bugs.  Or if there are bugs...fix them!  Im pretty open on everything else.  Someone creating a new mmorpg may have better systems than other games so my perfect game is hard to describe because if I say it...then something better will be made.

    crafting system SWG, ATITD, Earth and Beyond

    housing system SWG, AO

    combat system Jumpgate

    economy no clear choice for me

    magic system NO MAGIC! Sick of the swords-and-sorcery crap. Sci-fi or historical MMOGs for me, please.

    player interface SWG, I guess

    guild system no clear choice for me

    character gen SWG

    skill system SWG

    graphics Earth and Beyond, Jumpgate, maybe SWG

    Go for it, who has the best in each of these areas? And why hasn't someone thought about doing it yet??

    If I put more thought into this reply, my answers might change. But right now I don't have enough thought to spare, to give a better set of answers. Note that none of these answers are a blanket endorsement of any of the games mentioned.

    after 6 or so years, I had to change it a little...

    You forget 2 very important categories.

    Runs relatively bug free the day you start playing. (no drops to the desktop, no whatever.exe error's, the game runs, you can log in, you can make a account...ect)

    It has all the features it promised on the box. (I can't tell you how many games take a 6-year to get in all the feature that they had printed on the box, or listed on the web site. If it doesn't do what your promise it will... then it's fraud. I wish we'd hold game companies more accountable for this)

     

    Also I must say it's weak to vote for something that doesn't exsist. As stated aboves companies will promise anything, but until you get to use it, it doesn't mean a thing.
