Maybe a sandbox MMORPG?

[Glazed]

Is there a MMORPG with a more open world and that gives more options of things to do? Maybe one that is free, or one that is pay to play (I guess), something where I don't end up doing this routine, because I hate it.

This fine quote right here explains the things I get tired of quickly in most MMORPGs, especially ones with a bland world, because I like a big world with alot of scenery and even a unique terrain lay out, rather than just tons of basic flat fields. with a few hills and little steep hills and a few puddles of water here and there.

"* People hate endless quest grinding to an arbitrary level cap which, in truth, could be 20 levels higher, or lower, and it seemingly wouldn’t make any difference.

* People hate the quests themselves, which still revolve around, “Kill 10 of this monster” or “Deliver this letter to someone a really long way away (so you’ll waste the next two hours of your life)”.

* People hate that “the best” content in games is usually reserved for the endgame, which not only takes time to level to, it’s often, weirdly, also the most under-developed in many ways."

Although p2p, Darkfall is kind of a sandbox type deal.

I don't know if Runescape would count?

What about Tales Runner?
