World of Warcraft. Starting out in an MMO for the first time is magical. No worries about the endgame, just the desire to explore and learn.
I responded to another comment here about it. WoW and other MMOs would be my choice -- but to make it any fun you'd have to rewind the whole world. Not only get rid of wowhead, wowwiki, raider.io etc., but get people to forget they ever existed, forget how to do data mining so effectively. Also get rid of streaming and video sharing services so that you had the chance of discovering things on your own. You wouldn't be the first, but you wouldn't know that.
Yeah, the internet ruined online gaming.
Oh yeah, WoW hands down. The sense of wonder as I explored the world the first time was incomparable to any other game.
