I've always had a special place in my heart for Celestia, I mean its just breathtaking ( especially the District of the Stars ) and it has quite a plot running through it. Plus the new Astral Schools, which have been quite a help. The architecture is simply stunning even for a world in ruins, although I would kill for a side quest that takes us back in time before Celestia was sunken and its buildings destroyed.
I like them all, but if I had to pick one, then it would probably have to be grizzleheim, as I really like the music, the story and just the look of the world all together.
My favorite world is Mooshu. Mostly because of: 1) The story. The people of Mooshu have some pretty bad problems, such as plagues, war, famine, ect. I love the Chinese/Japanese influences in the world and culture. 2) The setting. Mooshu is bright and cheery, with clear skies and green grass. The music is awesome as usual. 3) The inhabitants. Despite being farm animals, friends and foes somehow fit into the world of honor and family. And its pretty funny watching cows walk around in samurai armor.
I loved Mooshu. After running to and fro on the dark and dirty rooftops of Marleybone, Mooshu seemed like a breath of fresh air. I liked the fact it didn't have so many quests that was just running around from person to person. I also enjoyed all the dungeons in Mooshu, especially the Tree of Life.
5: Wizard City (Handy bazaar :P ) 4: Wysteria ( I like the art work on it ) 3: Celestia ( Secret trainers o: ) 2: Dragonspyre( How it has the past DS ) 1: Krokotopia!!! It is because it is home to my balance wizard! He likes to talk to his teacher sometimes :D
Falmea this was a great question :P. But I had lots of worlds to favorite. Thanks for the wonderful quesion Falmea!
5. It's the light at the end of the sickeningly-tedious tunnel that is Marleybone and Mooshu.
4. Crystal Grove. I don't particularly like spiders, but there are lots of shiny things there.
3. I had a "goth" stage, when I was younger, and my adult self still has a soft spot for things like ghosts, crypts, and crumbly, old buildings.
2. Russian names and accents RULE.
1. I am a Malistaire minion/groupie, and wish he'd come back. *sob*
(As much as I enjoy beating him up, there's a part of me that wants to give him cookies and a hug before I start throwing bladed Power Novas at him. :P)
- Me: OH HAI, MALISTAIRE! Him: You again? Me: YOU'RE THE BEST! *hugs and offers cookie* Him: *sigh* I hate you. -

I love Marleybone for many reasons, the gothic music (I use it as a ringtone), the fashionable but functional clothes ( still use it in MooShu), the wonderful buildings, the accents of the characters, the fact that I love gothic worlds, and the concept of having a Sherlock Holmes based world! It's all wonderful!!! DragonSpyre is my extremely close number 2, but I love Marleybone just the slightest bit more for the book refrence reason. As a bookworm who loves worlds with good clothes, and good music Marleybone is my favorite by a long shot.
I think I love Celestia the most because of the underwater areas. They are truly beautiful. I always take off my mount underwater because swimming is so much fun. Also I can still jump underwater, which I can't do on land. I used to be able to jump on land. Now i just have a pathetic little hop.
Dragonspyre because it is amazing in detail,has monsters that are somewhat of a challenge,and its an awesome place to defeat Malistare! Esmee Iceblood Lvl 23!(Helped others defeat Malistare,have yet to actually defeat him on my own)
I like most of the worlds. MooShu because it reminds me of China or Japan ^_^ and I love the music there (even though I turn sounds off most of the time . Celestia, Dragonspyre, Zafaria - not there yet. >.< (near DS though =D). Krok because I'm Balance ^_^. I guess if I do have to choose one, it would be MarleyBone.
Wizard City - It is organized well, you can get around and use the areas without always getting pulled into battles. All of the basics can be found here. People hang out in Wizard City to plan, talk, pvp, shop etc. I wish more stuff would be added. Its classic.
