For me its:
-
Ultima Online
-
Final Fantasy XI
-
Ragnarok Online
UO was a game I just recently discovered and it’s fantastic, best sandbox experience I’ve ever had in a game.
FFXI was another recent discovery. It took the formula from Everquest and made it better. The game is even less grindy today with the QOL changes.
RO was a big part of my teenage years. I love the look of the game, it reminds me of Final Fantasy Tactics. It’s a great casual game to just pop into and grind out some levels or explore.
It’s the opposite for me, the whole experience has always been the leveling journey for me. Exploring the world, doing the quests, meeting cool monsters and killing them. Even Guild Wars 1 that was the part I enjoyed the most. I find raiding just excruciatingly boring.
