Video games take up an insane amount of time, but some genres are far more time consuming than others, especially MMORPG<\/a>s, which require a lot of questing and grinding. There is often no way around this, as players usually have no other way to acquire better gear and weapons for end-game content.\u00a0The most popular MMO is without a doubt\u00a0World of Warcraft<\/a>,\u00a0<\/em>and many developers have tried to replicate its level of popularity with their own games, but no one has come close.<\/p>\n

They may be time-consuming, but MMOs are incredibly popular, which is why there are so many out there. When there are so many options, some games are bound to fall by the wayside for a variety of reasons, and this list will shine a light on some underrated MMORPGs that deserve a chance.<\/p>\n

10 <\/span>Guild Wars 2<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

There was a lot of hype leading up to the release of\u00a0Guild Wars 2 <\/em>in 2012, to the point that some people believed that the game would become a threat to\u00a0World of Warcraft,\u00a0<\/em>but the game eventually fell into the ether, which is why it is now free-to-play<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The game still looks good and it is still being updated, which is why there are now thousands of stories for players to experience, and there are plenty of open-world events and battles that players can join at any time. The PvP experience is arguably the best part of the game, especially the World vs. World grand battles that can have hundreds of players involved.<\/p>\n

9 <\/span>Albion Online<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Albion Online\u00a0<\/em>launched in 2017, and, for an MMORPG that can be played on mobile, it has pretty decent graphics, but its depth and sandbox are also pretty impressive. Yet, what makes this game unique is its modernized gameplay features.<\/p>\n

The game possesses a classless progression system, which means that players can wear whatever armor sets they want, but you can still unlock skills and perks through the Destiny Board. The game’s economy is also completely player-driven, which means that virtually every weapon and house in the game was crafted or built by players.<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>Neverwinter Online<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Fans of\u00a0Dungeons & Dragons\u00a0<\/em>will love Neverwinter Online<\/em><\/a>\u00a0because the game takes place in the\u00a0Forgotten Realms<\/em>\u00a0universe, which means that it possesses rich and detailed locations, stories, and characters. As far as classes are concerned, they follow the traditional MMO format, but with a few\u00a0D&D\u00a0<\/em>characteristics.<\/p>\n

Last year, the game removed its “Foundry,” which was a content creation system that allowed players to make their own quests and stories, but the game is so rich in story that its removal does not hurt the game too much. The game may feel a bit outdated because of its graphics and mechanics, but it still offers a combat system that requires a great deal of planning.<\/p>\n

7 <\/span>Black Desert Online<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Black Desert Online<\/em>\u00a0may have been released in 2014, but it’s graphics still hold up pretty well, and it boasts an insan<\/a>ely detailed character customization menu which allows you to build the character you want, and this customization is important, as there are 19 unique classes to choose from.<\/p>\n

For players who like fast-paced combo-oriented combat,\u00a0BDO <\/em>is a must-play experience, and it also sports weekly Guild battles that keep PVP interesting and engaging, as the winning Guild receives a castle which collects currency for an entire week.\u00a0Players can also enjoy naval combat and adventures.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>Rift Online<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

In\u00a0Rift Online\u00a0<\/em>players assume the role of an Ascended-a hero who defends the realm of Telara. Players must decide whether they are a Guardian who was chosen by the Gods or a Defiant who forged their own path, and, once that’s done, they can pick one of six races, who each have two skill trees to customize.<\/p>\n

Unlike other MMOs that try to put an equal focus on PvP and PvE,\u00a0Rift<\/em> focuses heavily on PvE, and it requires players to actually work together in order to defeat bosses and seal up rifts that open up at random times throughout the world.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>Wurm Online<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

In 2012, Swedish developer Code Club AB released Wurm Online<\/em>, an MMO that tries to revolutionize the sandbox landscape by granting players an incredible amount of freedom. This freedom involves allowing players to alter the terrain of the map to create their own structures.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Players are also able to construct their own roads and ships or tame and breed animals. Aside from building, this MMO allows players to learn a variety of spells and enchantments which come in very handy when hunting creatures like dragons and forest giants.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>Dungeons & Dragons Online<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

If\u00a0BDO\u00a0<\/em>does not sound like the optimal\u00a0D&D\u00a0<\/em>experience, then players may want to go straight to the source and play\u00a0Dungeons & Dragons Online<\/a>. <\/em>The game may have released almost 15 years ago, but it has aged quite well, so much so that some areas look like they could be found in\u00a0WoW\u00a0<\/em>today.<\/p>\n

The game literally functions like a real\u00a0D&D\u00a0<\/em>campaign in which\u00a0players choose their own race and class, all of whom have their own skills and abilities. Hardcore\u00a0D&D\u00a0<\/em>fans would love this game because it utilizes lore and locations that they would be familiar with, and seasoned\u00a0D&D <\/em>players will also love the idea of being in complete control of their characters.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>Runescape Classic<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

When\u00a0Jagex announced that they were closing Runescape<\/em>, players were left heartbroken, but, a few months later, it was revealed that a slightly newer version of the game was releasing on Android and iOS. In terms of graphics,\u00a0Runescape\u00a0<\/em>is not that impressive to look at, but what makes the game great is the character customization, questing, and loot grinding.<\/p>\n

Players can choose to save people from monsters or simply go fishing and mining, which is a surprising amount of variety for a free mobile game. The game has also received engine improvements and quality of life changes to make the playing experience even more enjoyable.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>Lord Of The Rings Online<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

There have been quite a few\u00a0Lord of the Rings <\/em>games\u00a0<\/em>over the years, some of which were really bad<\/a>, but there are a few that exceeded players’ expectations.\u00a0The Lord of the Rings Online <\/em>was released in 2007, and it utilizes traditional MMO gameplay mechanics.<\/p>\n

The game allows players to choose between hobbits, humans, dwarves, and high elves, and the story actually connects to events that take place in the real\u00a0LOTR\u00a0<\/em>story, which makes it the perfect way to expand upon\u00a0J.R.R. Tolkien’s epic fantasy series.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>Star Wars: The Old Republic<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The events of\u00a0Star Wars: The Old Republic<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>may no longer be canon, but it still provides players with great stories that take place in a galaxy that\u00a0Star Wars\u00a0<\/em>fans are very well familiar with. When\u00a0SWTOR <\/em>first launched in 2011, it was met with a great deal of criticism, but the developers listened to that feedback and turned the game into something special.<\/p>\n

Players can choose to play as a Force-user, trooper, or agent, all of whom have advanced class variants<\/a> and their own exclusive storylines. Once players are done with the main story, there is a ton of end-game content available, and BioWare is still releasing content for it-like the\u00a0Onslaught\u00a0<\/em>expansion, which was released last October.<\/p>\n
