It’s a little-known part of the Laws of MMORPGs but every single game is obligated to have some sort of gift-giving holiday during December. There’s probably a real-world reason for this, but I’ve done no research on it and have decided that it’s probably just some weird coincidence. But that raises the question of what game handles these winter holidays the best and which one has an event that most thoroughly encapsulates the sort of thing you want to be feeling during this time of the year.
Every game is a little bit different, and you might be surprised by my personal pick of the most comfortable game for the season, but you’re not here to hear about that. (Or if you are, I’m sorry to disappoint you, because I’m not here to talk about it.) What’s your favorite MMO for the winter holidays? What game has the best and most welcoming event that feels like a warm hug and a mug of eggnog? Have you ever thought about it?
