    Atlantica, free to play and turned based (FF roots here), yes, but still very successful and one of the top rated MMOs on the market today.

    FFXI may be 9 years old, but it still counts.

    Want some more? Obviously we do because Evangela is still butthurt that the majority of players DON'T want jump in FFXIV.

    Guild wars (no free jumping anyway)
    Rohan,
    Vindictus (voted second best F2P MMO of 2010, right behind LOTRO),
    Rappelz (not on my list of good MMOs, but it still has quite a few players, despite the MANY flaws),
    Lineage (There are actually people that hated that game because it didn't have jump, yet it still did very well),
    Lineage 2

    Quoted from the Lineage message board when someone complained about not having jump (when its not needed in the first place) "Go back to WoW."
    World of Warcraft
    Aion
    Perfect World
    Forsaken World
    Ether Saga Online
    Jade Dynasty
    Warhammer
    Age of Conan
    LOTRO
    Rift

    New MMOs coming WITH jump:

    Star Wars: The Old Republic
    TERA
    Guild Wars 2
    Blade and Soul
    ArcheAge

    Congratulations, for every MMO you list where you can't jump, someone can probably list two where you can. So please, don't even get me started. Funny, one of the companies that makes a few games you listed has no jump on their older titles, while their newer titles will have jump. Maybe that says something?

    Oh, and SC2 isn't listed as an MMO either. It has online function's yes, but it is an online RTS. As for Demon's Souls, the (M) in (M)MO stands for massively, can you play with hundreds/thousands of players at once in that game? I'm not sure as I haven't ever played it, but I think not.

    On a side note, while MMO does indeed stand for Massively Multi-player Online, most people that refer to them on these forums are probably shortening the term from MMORPG (Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing Game) and SC2 is not in that genre at all.
