Best MMORPG Games To Play
Dilawar’s Favorite: My personal favorite are World of Warcraft, DC Universe Online, and Neverwinter.
1. World of Warcraft
World of Warcraft is the supposed father of all MMORPGs and the genre itself, developed by Blizzard, it has garnered the most positive reviews for its amazing gameplay and an intriguing environment. The game allows you to choose your character, pick a class, and customize your character completely in different ways that you prefer. In order to gain experience and level up your character, you must complete quests.
You can either take the quests solo (which is quite hard) or you can join a party and do a multiplayer quest run along with your friends. You can also duke it out against other players in the PvP mode. World of Warcraft works on a subscription based payment model so in order to play you have to buy subscription cards or make the payment directly with your credit card to keep playing the game after the free trial period is over. Playing for up to level 20 is entirely free, but after that period you have to extend your subscription.
Path of Exile is everything you expected from a true sequel to the famous Diablo II. Diablo III definitely had a shaky start and didn’t do justice to Diablo II’s legacy. However, Path of Exile definitely gives off that Diablo II look and play similarly as well. In this game, you start your journey in an unknown world and try to explore large areas including dangerous dungeons and monster-filled caves. You fight off hordes of monsters and other dark forces that are present in these areas and accumulate experience for killing monsters and completing quests.
You can team up with others and play together, but the main objective of the game is to give every single player their own isolated vast map to explore, you can either do that with your party or just go about it solo. The game is entirely free to play and you don’t have to use any money to gain an upper hand.
If you are on the lookout for an amazing free MMORPG game that offers great gameplay then Age of Conan is the perfect choice for you. This game is inspired although quite loosely by the novels of the same title. However, Age of Conan is a great game that rivals World Of Warcraft in the storyline and offers quite similar gameplay elements.

DC Universe Online is a great MMORPG where your favorite DC heroes and villains like Batman, Superman, Joker, etc. make an appearance. These heroes and villains are in the game but they are not the main character. Since the DC Universe Online is an online RPG which means you are the real hero in the game. The core concept of the game is similar to other MMORPG games out there, but it includes your favorite DC characters.
There are numerous character templates in the game to help you create and customize your very own superhero, if you don’t have the time to completely make one from scratch, the best thing is that it can also be a villain.

Leveling up your hero gives you access to new abilities, powers, and skills which make the game more exciting and fun.

Neverwinter is a fairly new entrant to the MMORPG genre. This amazing game is available for download on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC platforms. The game is loosely inspired by and based on Dungeons & Dragons’ rulebook.
