Two-word MMO Descriptions

Adhesive33Adhesive33 Member UncommonPosts: 227

How would you describe your favorite, or not so favorite, MMO if only given two words? For example:


  • Allods - "Wasted Potential"

  • Rift - "Polished Mediocrity"

  • Lotro - "Screenshot Scenery"

 

Don't mean to single any particular game out, just curious about people's core perceptions of various MMOs.

    There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein

    I'm not entirely sure how to do this WITHOUT bashing a game. Do you mean we have to come up with two positive words for each MMO? I'm afraid that would be impossible for me, so I guess I'd best sit this one out.
