The other day I was watching MMO players have a good-natured discussion about transmog systems among various titles. A few FFXIV players lamented how they dearly wished that their game’s glamour system was as intuitive and user-friendly as cosmetic systems in other MMOs.

So today let’s call out those kludgy features and share a united hope that one day they’ll be revamped and improved! What are some of the worst-designed gameplay systems you’ve encountered in MMOs?
Every morning, the Massively Overpowered writers team up with mascot Mo to ask MMORPG players pointed questions about the massively multiplayer online roleplaying genre. Grab a mug of your preferred beverage and take a stab at answering the question posed in today’s Daily Grind!
