Mortal Online had way more votes than any other MMO and is the clear winner for best sandbox MMO of 2015. It just goes to show how much Mortal Online has improved over the years. From a buggy release, to a fully functioning fun to play sandbox MMO that was released on Steam, Mortal Online aged like fine wine. It is clear Mortal Online is currently the best Sandbox MMO and maybe the best MMO ever.
Ryzom has earned second place with a respectable 18% of the votes.

This game is far from a sandbox. It has the most overpowered guards in the wild where it kills players walking around. Does that seem like a sandbox to you?
The game says it is a sandbox, but the GM’s spawning guards on the murders. The game is controled by a staff that wants to just make money like WoW so they left the Game masters spawn guards on top of players, and even control the guards to follow the players to thier storages ect..
Worst game ever.
I wasn’t going to leave a comment, but the two comments up were clearly left by people who have never played the game for more than an hour.
The game IS a sandbox. Despite it’s bugs, it is hands down the best (and most sandboxy) sandbox game that currently exists.
Guards do not roam the wild. And GMs do not spawn guards on murderers. Ignore the troll comments.
The hardest guards are only in NPC towns to protect newer players from thievery and murderers. The guards in the wild are fairly weak and very easy to avoid. The guard system is in place so that newer players won’t be constantly murdered by veteran players in NPC towns. It makes sense. Populated areas would be more highly policed than rural wild areas, just like in real life.
Player towns have npc guards as well, if you don’t want other players in your town, you can set your town guards to kill them. It’s takes a lot of time and effort to wall up your town and add guards but that’s the natural trade off of the game. These guards are not invincible and can be fairly easily defeated be a well organized group of enemy players.
There are very few sandbox MMO’s sandier than Mortal Online. There is a reason why Mortal Online was voted number one sandbox MMO of 2015, and that’s because Mortal Online is the best sandbox MMO currently on the market.
