Guild Wars, especially for the PvP mode. I loved the visual feeling of the game, it felt sharper and less cartoony than a WoW.
Some classes were kind of novel too at the time.
And the feature I loved was the limited skillset you had to chose : you could be lvl 20 (max) and know 30 spells but you could only pick 5 in your active bar. It made for so many interesting builds and combinations !
Aaah, that game really left a hole in my heart that was never really filled again. Build crafting during school, playing in the evenings -- those were the days. I also loved how the game forced team play much more than other MMORPG's. And then there's the lore, the beautiful zones... Truly pretty close to perfect!
I have to agree with you there. The music, the scenery, the plot, just the general aesthetic of the game was incredible. It created an experience in play. I can't tell you how many times I restarted characters and classes to play through in a slightly different experience. I still pick it up and play occasionally, even though I'm the only one from my guild who has logged in for the past 3 years, it's nice to just see and experience the game again.
