So far I'm happy with GW2.
I like how you can use any weapon in ESO and would like to see that in more MMO's.
ESO needs more skill bars that are easy to configure like in SWTOR. I like the idea of player created quests in MMOs and would like to see more of that.
Would be nice if they could work the Nemesis system into MMOs. Flipping NPCs, helping them get promoted so they are even more valuable to you is a great idea.

Game still looks good as it is, gameplay is still better than most MMORPGs that have released since, which is why I still play it.
We had Empires run by Emperors, we had Kingdoms run by Kings, now we have Countries...

I like this. I'll add a hardcore server where if you die once, you get moved to the regular non-hardcore server. You'd also have ways to get out of trouble.
I'd also add the ability to have restaurants, brothels, farms, slave trader. I'd love to join a game and basically be "the GOT guy who owns brothels, forgetting his name" . The finger or something.

You can see my sci-fi/WW2 book recommendations.
Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.
Basically conflicts of the overlord side of the game being the world event generator for the Character side (along with filling out the feudal npc background stuff, along with choosing some extra rewards for characters). And the Character side quests/raids providing buffs to the overlord side.
Practice doesn't make perfect, practice makes permanent.

1. Persistent large open world with appealing diversity of zone design
2. Classic combat styles. More focus on stats and build than on combat itself.
3. Extremely deep character build system (abilities, stats etc) with huge amount of possible variations
4. More focus on RP than we're used to today (doesn't necessarily mean huge amount of scripted storylines)
5. Harsh environment.
So, same basic design as before:
Sim-flavored PvE MMO, but not a sandbox, more of a sandpark. Gameplay would be inspired by A Tale In the Desert, focusing on house building, crop growing, and other minigame crafting activities. Major differences from ATitD would be the addition of monsters and a PvE combat system by which players would hunt these monsters for crafting mats, the addition of a worldwide marketplace, and maybe a mount breeding and racing system.
