Automatic loot pickup. That right there is my all-time favorite quality-of-life improvement that Lord of the Rings Online added, and it is a high-falootin’ shame that other MMOs haven’t done that. Of course, I remember when area looting was an amazing leap forward in corpse rifling, so I could be completely spoiled right now.
I love me a good quality-of-life improvement. Sometimes, depending on what is added, fixed, or changed, it might be far more exciting than actual new content in a game. When something you’ve been struggling with for years finally gets streamlined or upgraded, it can make the MMO overall feel a lot more fun and enjoyable.
