Well, they have the potential for not sucking, but it's all about making people farm for an eternity for fake moneys so you can farm their real moneys for eternity. If there was an mmo based on content, fun, and not just wasting time, they wouldn't suck.
I find it funny going to the gamefaqs WoW boards and seeing them argue about whether FFXI or WoW is a bigger waste of time...

the thing is thing is that you cant spend as much time on the internet as on real life. I think what saves mmo's is when they become scheduled commitments and the RPG format is abandoned and harsher dieing penalties are put in place.

You'd like Runescape, 'cause you have to grind forever to make any progress and you lose all but three of your items when you die... Unless of course you've recently been involved in some PVP, in which case you'd lose everything if you die. Sounds fun, doesn't it?
