Personally I've switched games alot. I can probably list off atleast 10 without trying very hard...

I dont know what it is but I loose interest in games really fast..

So how many MMOs have you played consistantly for atleast a month?

one. Final Fantasy XI.

That was enough to show me that playing an MMO would destroy my life, and has kept me from any since.

Here's a quick list of mine...

Ultima Online
Planetside
Arch Lord
WoW
A Tale In The Desert
Star Wars Galaxies
Pirates of the burning Sea
Everquest 2
Gods And Heroes (Beta Tested, Never released)
Pirates of the Caribean Online

I'm sure there's more too...;)

So...Reasons for leaving?

In no particular order:

UO
Everquest
EVE Online
Star Wars Galaxies (I should've known better after beta testing that POS game)
WoW

Now, if you count MUDs way back in the day, then I have played well over a dozen MMOs.

Ragnarok Online

I was actually thinking of trying AoC. Although, after reading several reviews and blogs on mmorpg.com I've decided it's WAYYYYY over rated.....

And with that MMOs, none of them really constitute "Playing" so much as tinkering around with the 30 free days and doing something else. ;D

0.

I have equaled you. After being introduced to TF2 and Hammer.... I already get the stare of death from the Lady enough as it is.

I used to think "How the hell is video games an addiction?" now all I can say is "I understand"

I keep meaning to try half these MMO's for research purposes, but I keep getting lazy/distracted by lighting things on fire/ getting busy with school and plays. I need to try Vanguard and Conan in the near future, and I keep meaning to get a trial of Lord of the Rings just to wander around and ooh and ahh at the scenery. :)

Guild Wars
WoW

I wanted to play Huxley, but my anticipation has waned significantly over the past three years.

Thrax

8 Jul 2008, 8:24pm

Apparently Huxley is out in force in Korea, and I was eagerly awaiting its state-side arrival to deliver a new MMOFPS experience outside of Planetside, but I guess it's never coming.

Battlefield and Counter Stike do not count. True, they may be very good multiplayer games BUT you're on seperate severs which kind of excludes them. MMO "Shards" are different then multiplayer "Servers".

..."Servers" always have player caps :(

As do sharded instances, dugeons in WoW have a cap of 4, raids have between 10 and 25, and servers themselves have a cap of 10k or so.

They're still not an MMO in any sense of the word, because the world is neither massive nor persistent.

None. What should I try?

All depends on what your into. Guild Wars in my experience was really good and easy to get into.You also have a ton of different versions to pick from. If you're into a flip load of lvl grinding then go with any kid of Korean/Korean port like 2Moons, be careful with those though cause you might find youself frusterated within the first 30-60 lvls of grinding.

How much free time do you have?

How is that game Gunz? I am pretty hardcore with MMO's and I like its gun/anime style influence.

Thrax

21 Jul 2008, 6:27am

Guild Wars is probably for you. No monthly fee, easy to start, easy to play, can come and go as you please.

How is that game Gunz? I am pretty hardcore with MMO's and I like its gun/anime style influence.Gunz was ok, If your into FPS MMO's then your definetly going to like it. You can also look into multiple versions of the game like IJJI, and other private servers. I personally perfured the IJJI version a lot better the the Satans Server (or network, Can't remember). lol Strange name. But it again, all goes to preference.
