Every MMO Youtuber has tried to define 'MMORPG', but we still don't have an agreed upon definition, and I think it's because, honestly...

The acronym 'MMORPG' is really, really bad at telling you anything about what the genre actually is, it's not mechanical, or asthetic, it creates a set of games so broad they can look completely different from each other.

So why is the acronym so bad? Let's discuss.

Thanks as usual to all the supporters on Patreon, Twitch and Youtube who keep the content alive.
