Thumbs down Top 6 Worst MMORPGs of All Time from MMOCrunch

Top 6 Worst MMORPGs of All Time
May 15th, 2008 by Mike

We have done lists in the past that show some of the best MMORPGs on the market, but I thought it would be fun if we flipped it and took a look at the top 6 worst MMORGPs based on the composite scores at gamerankings.com. I'm going to come out and say that out of the 6 I've never played any of them, so don't get mad at me.

6. Final Fantasy XI

Xbox360 - Square Enix - Avg. Score = 69.348%

While the PC version of this game comes in at #7 for best MMORPG, the Xbox360 port turned out to be a dud and comes in at #6 of the worst.

Provided by Gamespot

Preposterously long installation period, plus layers of unnecessary inconvenience

* Virtually nothing done to enhance the experience for the Xbox 360

* Slowly paced action and exploration caters almost exclusively to the hardcore

* Tough-to-swallow monthly fees required

* Not a single unlockable achievement, unlike every other 360 game.

5. The Matrix Online

PC - Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment - Avg. Score = 68.974%

Ah, The Matrix Online. This game appeared on another one of our lists, 4 MMORPGs That Should Have Been Great. But sadly the game was not great and is actually the 5th worst MMORPG of all time.

Provided by Gamespot

* Very rough around the edges; runs sluggishly and filled with noticeable glitches

* Repetitive mission design�Cmission types all blend together after a while

* Not much diversity of content

* Quirky interface takes a while to get used to.

4. Vanguard: Saga of Heroes

PC - Sony Online Entertainment - Avg. Score = 68.929%

Vanguard launched with nearly 100,000 users, but it's been all down hill since then, currently boosting about 35k users and declining.

Provided By Gamespot

* Bugs, bugs, and more bugs

* Forced grouping will leave solo players cold

* Stiff death penalty and lack of instanced dungeons are as frustrating now as they were in EverQuest's early days.

[IMG]http://images.************/news/2008/05/19/lineage2wc0516.jpg[/IMG]
3. Lineage II: The Chaotic Chronicle

PC - NCsoft - Avg. Score = 64.523%

At one time Lineage II boosted over 2.2 million users, however the game did not live up to the hype and is currently just over 1 million. While I'm sure many of you might be upset with this game appears on the list, that doesn't save it from being one of the lowest reviewed MMORPGs of all time.

Provided by Gamespy

* Terrible for small party/casual players

* lag in graphically complicated areas

* poor chat system and guild management tools

* minimal character customization

[IMG]http://images.************/news/2008/05/19/rfowc0516.jpg[/IMG]
2. RF Online

PC - Codemasters - Avg. Score = 56.143%

And now we come down to the top two and finally plunge way below the 65% mark. RF Online was once pay to play, but after getting slammed by reviews and lack of interest it's now free to play. Although, would you really want to even if it is free?

Provided by Gamespot

* Low-level quests are generic and boring

* Traveling around the world is painfully slow

* Very little variety in terms of items, quests, classes, and enemies

* Bland environments.

[IMG]http://images.************/news/2008/05/19/rylwc0516.jpg[/IMG]
1. RYL: Path of the Emperor

PC - Planetwide Games - Avg. Score = 54.360%

Can't say that I've even heard of this game, but considering it's ranked as the worst MMORPG of all time, not hearing about it might not be so bad.

Provided by Gamespot

* Dated, low-res graphics

* Bland player-versus-environment content

* Frequent graphical glitches.

Wow.
I would strongly disagree with #1-#3 listed here.
I believe there are far worse games that weren't even mentioned.
