I’d love it if the MMORPGs I played allowed user mods & made level grinding less of a monotinous task. Awesome background music is a must; Maple Story has that one down. You can never have enough quests or avatar design options. All mmorpgs should offer a choice of either paying a subscription fee, or playing free with heavy advertising (the advertisers pay & it’s best to have ammusing advertisements that have geek-related interests). Inside jokes, running gags, & homages to classic games within the game are always great. Good voice acting with noncorny dialogue is a must. Character inventory should be pretty large. There should be lots of things people can collect & a large veriety of monsters with a large veriety of loot. Weapons & armor should be upgradable & allow for enhancements. Very important that environments look significantly different from eachother. Interaction with an endlessly explorable environment that can be used, harvested, & take damage is always a plus.
