Maybe a sandbox MMORPG?

    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)â€.

    * 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?

    Red Dead Redemption will be an awesome sandbox console game in 2010.

    All Points Bulletin. It's not released yet, but the guy who made it also made the first Crackdown I think.

    I really have no idea what I would suggest for you. To be honest I am happy with grinding and questing. I think that even though it is repetitive if there is enough to make the rest of the game interesting or challenging it will still be fun to play. When I play Ryzom I am seldom bored because the world evolves with me and that helps keep me engaged in what I am doing.

    Haven & Hearth sounds cool. Get Ogre to add it to GO.
