How about GW1/GW2? They're "pay once, play forever" and I found their quality to be excellent. I can't argue with the quality of a monthly pay to play game - they're getting quite a bit of money, it better be good! Completely free-to-play are the worst, they're hit and miss, usually miss.
Off topic at this point, but this thread will soon be irrelevant anyways!
