What are people's favourite pre-WOW MMOs that are still worth playing today? (self.mmorpg)

I long for the days of yore, but I never really got into MMOs until WOW and I've always been jealous heating the stories of people playing MMOs prior.

At some point in the future I'm going to be making an XP era PC build where I plan to play some older games from my childhood as well and any MMOs from that era that I missed out on

Also going to try and get properly into FFXI at some point too but I'm wanting to hear other suggestions too.

I've tried everquest but the way they center the character in the 3rd person view starts to mess with my motion sickness a bit feeling like I have to look at the ground a lot more than I'd normally prefer.

There are City of Heroes pirate servers out now, that's a fun game but not really a good one to go into for a long haul as the end game is limited and getting to max level is trivial even on "hard" servers. But still fun to mess around on every once in awhile.

I also am an EQ fan and always end up playing EverQuest at some point. I'll play on live, I'll play on pirate servers, i just enjoy the game. But I try not to get sucked into it. Too easy for me to lose myself in that game.
