Do you agree this topic present by Tobold? Are there no nice MMO in 2007? You may have had enough of it! More and more MMOs come out every month. We can't charge ourselves to taste a MMO, so we must miss someting or lost some details. What's the best? or the better one? Every man has his hobbyhorse. Just let others know your preferences and abhorrences. Your comments are welcome anytime.

Let's read through "Is 2007 a bad year for MMORPGs?" on Tobold's MMORPG Blog.

I'm starting to get a bit depressed by all the bad MMORPG news recently. And although it isn't December yet, I'm looking back at what 2007 has brought us, and I don't see much good news. Here is the list:

World of Warcraft : The Burning Crusade was a huge sales hit, but US and European subscription numbers peaked shortly after its release. I think nobody disagrees when I state that the Wrath of the Lich King announcement has a lot less enthusiastic reception.

Lord of the Rings Online: The best game that came out in 2007. Great low-level game, but getting a bit less great in the middle and higher levels. Fortunately Turbine is adding content at a very good rate, with book 10 adding mid-level content, and book 11 later this year even adding player housing. Some controversy about managers lying about subscriber numbers, and then leaving the company. But these problems are more due to being overshadowed by WoW than to inherent flaws of LotRO.
