What feature of MMORPGs do you like most?

[coldReactive]

Well? What do you like most? Only one choice per person, and votes are public.

Voted for exploration. A lot of MMORPG's these days don't seem to have that feature anymore, though. Everything can be left out, as long as there is a huge or immersive world.

Had to vote for exploration. I like quests, but not just, "Go kill everything." I like when the quest makes you explore.

I'd vote gameplay but as the options isn't present there I did vote quests/PVE. Though partying is also very important to me. Underlying story is also somewhat important.

I don't care much about:
PVP - better not have it at all
Graphics - I like 2D/3D anime and western as long as it doesn't look too ugly, font is important though
Flying/Mounts - I never really used mounts in any MMORPG, flying in Aion was kind of interesting, but nothing I need
Pet System - just like PVP, it's better if the game doesn't have it

Pet system is cool, if it's not an unfinished Pet System like most MMORPG's have.

Surprisingly many PVE players voting here.

@Vinzix
I hate pet systems in general. I hate Pokemon, I hate Jade Cocoon and I hate all Shin Megami Tensei games because of them. It's just like I hate item crafting. When I play an RPG I just want to do the traditional stuff: Follow the story, explore the world, party up, fight monsters, fight bosses and maybe occasionally an optional minigame.

RPGs are free to add extra features I don't like, if they are completely optional. For example in RO pets don't really anything except looking good (and give a few stats), so I don't mind them. In Allods crafting doesn't really give you an advantage, so I don't mind it at all. But for example the pet system in Grand Fantasia killed the whole game for me.

as long as there are quests in a mmorpg i will be happy

I fancy a bit of coop from dungeons. It's a bit of a gamble if you're joining a random party but in general nobody wants to wipe.

I'm okay with pets as long as they don't take years to level up and become competent. Of course, it it's a subscription style 'feed me cash' type of pet then I'd have serious second thoughts.

PK is what I frown upon. I can only see it as a way for a certain type of human to identify themselves. PvP I don't care for unless it's mandatory to progress. Then I'd probably trade wins or just leave.

I'd say how well the player-base (specifically how well the community is developed) so party system.

Wheres the MMO part?
