MMORPGs, or massive multiplayer online role playing games, are becoming huge going into 2023. MMORPGs are basically an expansive world where you can not only build your character, explore, and do quests but meet other people that are also playing the game. The most popular MMORPG is World of Warcraft, but there are many others that are just as awesome to play if you have a high end gaming computer.
Final Fantasy XIV Online
You know this game is incredible when World of Warcraft icon Asmongold purposefully switched to it multiple times during live broadcasts. The game is rich with lore and has an immersive world to uncover. Without paying, you can get your customized character to level 60 by completing quests and mastering a variety of jobs. The successful game has five expansions, new locations, and a variety of gameplay styles depending on your mood. There’s even an area where you can build, collect, and farm like Animal Crossing! The game is also visually stunning so you’ll have fun just exploring as well.
World of Warcraft
This is the most well-known of all MMORPGs and it’s been around since 2004. There are nine total expansions, all with new characters, locations, quests, and content. The latest expansion lets you explore the Dragon Isles while soaring as a Dracthyr or racing on dragons.
The biggest selling point of World of Warcraft are the incredible dungeons and raids, which can all be done with friends. With decades of development, World of Warcraft is also known for its expansive class designs, all with their own specializations and gameplay. This is a game that takes a lot of grinding, so be prepared to dedicate time to it every day. There are plenty of people online at any given time, so you’ll luckily make genuine connections and meet people who can help you on tougher raids.
Elder Scrolls Online
Elder Scrolls is an iconic fantasy game that has an online version that allows you to explore its world even more. On top of the original RPG’s elements, you can also explore an entirely new storyline, join various guilds, and enjoy exciting battles with friends.
Elder Scrolls has more dynamic gameplay than the previous two games, allowing you to aim and run around the battlefield freely. The game also utilizes PvP differently that ties directly into the main story. Through it all, you can play a distinctly unique character from the world of Elder Scrolls.
New World
This is a new MMORPG that works best on a high end gaming computer from CLX Gaming’s powerful line. This game is based on the settling of America, with armor and styling that’s distinctly from the 1600s. While it has a lot of historical content, it also has a mystical, dark power that’s corrupting the world.
Throughout your adventure, you can explore dungeons, kill enemies and take their resources, and practice skill-centered combat. There are plenty of gameplay and weapon options to spice up your journey as well.
Lost Ark
This survival game has you building extensive bases with a team to defend your inventory from other players and monstrous enemies. You can play as five different classes, each with their own playstyle, and you can upgrade abilities as well. Aside from combat, you can also collect and build. You can even keep a collection of tamed dinosaurs!
