• I would love to see an MMO that had true difficult content all throughout, and not just at the top-end of the endgame raiding, like in the current paradigm. In most games these days you won't find truly hard content outside of those raids, and the h…

• It's honestly a bit surprising that they haven't done more to tone down the zerk meta that has been (with very few exceptions) the name of the game since 2012. Not that it is honestly that much different than other popular MMOs these days - dungeons…

• The problem isn't instanced dungeons, the problem is having multiple channels for overland zones on the same server. I really dislike it because it breaks up the population of your server in a mostly random manner, and makes it difficult to grow a c…

• 1. Warrior (DAoC) 2. Warrior (WoW) 3. Warrior (GW1) 4. Guardian (LOTRO) 5. Jedi Guardian (SWTOR) I liked the warrior in GW1 way better than the zerk-based warriors in GW2.

• Shadows seemed to be a bit of a FPS killer for me if they were set too high, I've set them to medium and run 55-60 FPS with vsync on 99% of the time, otherwise I've got everything on maximum @ 1920x1200. i2500k @ 4,5 ghz GeForce 680 GTX 8 GB RAM

• I'm honestly fine with most F2P stores, including LOTRO, SWTOR and GW2 (technically B2P, but whatever). What I dislike is mainly the gambling boxes that in particular infest SWTOR, but also GW2 and LOTRO to a lesser extent. Let us buy the stuff up …

  in So what exactly are F2P games supposed to charge for? Comment by Cirventhor December 2013
• A nice mix of Guild Wars, LotRO and Vanguard, as well as Skyrim every now and then.
