[What could have been...]

What makes the MMO worst for me was how great Star Wars Galaxies was in comparison. You truly felt like a character living in the Star Wars universe. *sheds a manly tear*

[Crafting & Enchantment]

Crafting system a la Vagrant Story. Make it happ'n.

[Dragon Age: Origins]

DA:O completely hit it out of the park with that feature alone.

 

It went downhill from there.

[New Game + vs Once and Done]

I never understood why anyone thought new game+ was a good idea. Wouldn't you rather just have the ability to create a higher level character from the start?

 

Some people really love grinding I guess? Personally I can think of nothing nastier and more soul sucking

 

Romances.
