Anyone getting Tired of MMOs??

HELP ME...
i've been craving that MMO fix... you know the one you get when u quit MMO's for awhile and all of a sudden u have this urge to grind mindlessly for 24/7??

Is it me, or is every MMO out there the same when it boils down to the foundation of the game - Grind, grind, grind.

i've been looking for an MMO for a LONGGG time that is different in a GOOD WAY. Never have i ever found this holy game T.T

Just wondering... is anyone else stuck in this situation??

the only redeeming aspect of mmo games seems to be socializing.
in regard to gameplay, all I saw were just pointless.
this is a defining term for any mmo: pointless.
there are better ways to socialize.

No shit, MMO's are over for me. Ever since constant disappointments in runescape and the shitty admins in Nostale.

I'm done with MMOs until GW2 or a KotOR MMO is released. ^^

When I get in the mood, I play CoH/CoV. But I usually only play for a coupla months at a time. I think I've played for a year, total.

I remember a conversation my ex and I had with a game developer for a well-regarded MMO a coupla years ago. He said, "We LOVE people who pay month-to-month, because we know we have the most addictive form of entertainment in the world, period. Paying month-to-month is like saying, 'I can quit whenever I like!' and we're like, 'Bet you three dollars a month you can't'."

And working with a buttload of WoW addicts (he didn't work THERE, mind you) I have to say that he was totally right.

Played WoW with a 10 day trial. I didn't feel the need to subscribe.
