That there is not a single game on the market that is:
"Free to play" - So, I can fully experience it and see if it's worth the commitment. I also highly doubt there is a product out there available worth spending $ at the moment, but those who care less about this already are in games like FFXIV, ESO, GW2 expansion and so forth...
"Secure" - mainly from hacking, heavy exploiting.
"Sense of progression" - So, I have long term goals playing the game. I like to play for year+ at least.
"Populated" - Healthy population (this depends on how the game designed though)
"Recent" - I'm not looking to join a server older than 5 years, based on knowledge of what's been available.
That's pretty much it. The rest is minor things like essential patches that expand the lifespan of the game (if it's themepark based around gearing and overcoming content). Competition is a plus, especially amongst players, but being forced to depend on individuals that may not be avaialble most of the time or not even exist to complete goals is no thx. I like to be able to login at 6 am, 6 pm or midnight and pursue goals.
So, yea as you can see my requirements are simple, yet even this simple of a product is apparently missing...I'm purposely trying to limit my requirements. I'm not even looking for a "MMO". I've enjoyed in the past other genre games with a sense of community, progression like Pangya (some old golf game ruined by hackers and Need for Speed World for a brief period). Currently Marvel Heroes Online is my primary game, but I do need a back up. I understand Wild Star going F2P this month, but my optimism is low on it.
