Everyone knows the term , MMORPG stand for... MMORPG?  All right saying seriously it means Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game.  Every MMORPG has a theme, the theme is usually fight between gods or maybe even countries, evils side and good side, demons over humans, racist races and much more.  The usual MMORPG always has a theme unless the developer got lazy, saying the truth almost ALL MMORPG are the same, some may differ in "Resource collecting" or maybe even "Special classes" and what not.  Some even appear to be famous just because they support a company.  So I can't say what MMORPG is good and what is bad, all depends on what you like about the game and to you what's so special about it.

MMORPG basically has classes or some may even has races well the most common to races are orc, human, demi-human, devils.  While in races the 3 most common is a knight or warrior, priest or healer, magician or mage.  Those are the 3 most common that makes a "party" which means a team that you can see each others hp (Health points) and mp (Mana points), see your party members location and much more, usually it's the leader that sets the party's setting, like share items or share exp (experience) and more.

The main scene is to battle monsters, but there are also things such as "PVP" which means player versus player on a fight to death to see which is better.  Normally, it is
