FFXI is the only one that's still officially running that I can think of that doesn't have one, but the game has also been in zombie mode for quite awhile.

And especially Star Wars The Old Republic. They rely heavily on their cash shop. Its even got a gacha element. You can buy loot crates that can contain any number of different things

Is there any MMO worth playing which doesnt have a cash shop? Obviously the cash shop doesnt improve the MMO but all the best MMOs have one anyway

In the early 2000s yes. Subscription based games used to not having cash shops but it's pay to play.
But nowadays even p2p have cash shops

Maybe guild wars? You buy the game and expansions, other than that it's not pay to play/win

Play a community-supported MMORPG. Urban Dead? StarWars Combine? The amount of things you can do in SWC is insane plus no chance for nickel&dime premium shop since it'd piss off LucasArts.

I tried Star Wars Combine back in like... 2007 or something. The concepts of everything happening in real time and your character being a normal ass person were both really fascinating but in practice it was rather painful lol.

I'm trying to remember if the original Secret World had a cash shop or not. You had to buy the expansions but I don't recall specifically like cosmetics for sale.

swtor cash shop is far from the only one with gacha
of big names, eso also heavily promotes its loot crates
tbh i find XIV's to be especially awful because 90% of the items are single use for a single character
i started an alt to play with friends and didn't have access to any of the dozens of outfits i bought for my main

edit:
oh and i also lost ~$100 in house decorations that got deleted along with my house when i quit for 3 months due to a medical emergency
fuck xiv lol

Square should add in an optional house protection fee so if a house owner has sudden trouble like you did, the house won't be deleted just cause you couldn't log in.
