Fantasy MMORPG PvE Raids Guilds

As of mid-2024, several RPGs are strong contenders for Game of the Year based on critical reception, player hype, and awards buzz. Here are the top candidates: Top RPG Contenders for 2024: Dragons Dogma 2 (Capcom) - A highly anticipated action-RPG sequel with dynamic combat and an open world. Praised for its emergent gameplay but criticized for performance issues at launch. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (Square Enix) - The second part of the FF7 Remake trilogy, lauded for its story, characters, and expanded open-world gameplay. A strong GOTY contender. Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree (FromSoftware) - Though an expansion, this DLC is so massive and polished that many consider it GOTY-worthy, elevating the base game even further. Avowed (Obsidian Entertainment) - A first-person fantasy RPG from the creators of The Outer Worlds and Pillars of Eternity, expected to deliver deep storytelling and player choice. Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio) - The latest Yakuza/JRPG hybrid, featuring Ichiban Kasuga in a Hawaii-set adventure with turn-based combat and a heartfelt story. Black Myth: Wukong (Game Science) - A Soulslike action-RPG based on Journey to the West, generating massive hype for its visuals and combat. The Elder Scrolls Online: Gold Road (Zenimax Online) - A major expansion for ESO, introducing a new zone and the Scribing system for spell customization. Potential Dark Horses: Star Wars Outlaws (Ubisoft) Open-world action RPG set in the Star Wars universe. Visions of Mana (Square Enix) A revival of the classic Mana series. Metaphor: ReFantazio (Atlus) A new fantasy RPG from the creators of Persona. Prediction for RPG of the Year: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and Dragons Dogma 2 are the frontrunners, but Black Myth: Wukong or Shadow of the Erdtree could surprise if they deliver exceptionally. Would you like recommendations based on a specific RPG subgenre (action, turn-based, open-world, etc.)?

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
