I don't know why I'm surprised that there are so many here who still play mmogs. Apparently I'm too cynical, even by this community's standards.  |

EVE and EQ2 but I'm thinking of dropping EVE next month and seeing how the 2.4 patch of WOW was.

WoW and LotRO at present.
Not excited about anything on the horizon.
Really want to be playing a Battletech game set in 3025 with a Solaris 7 ruleset.
OMG he's got an AC/5, run!

I just signed up for LOTR a day ago, and so far it's not enthusing me to go beyond the trial.
"Now then young adventurer. I want you to go somewhere in THAT direction (no, I won't mark on your map where, or even give you correct directions) and kill some spiders. Oh, and when you wonder around looking at the crappy map and accidentally kill the light blue mob for the NEXT quest I'll give you with a drop of 1 out of 10 kills for the item you need, I won't want them yet.
And every single trash monster will aggro you on your journey.
I've reached Bree and just got the first quest from Strider. The Prologue quests were ok...but 1/2 of them consisted of "go run over there for 20 minutes and then come back" and the other half needed a group (who then have to trapeze with you half way across the marsh lands before you discover its another 30 minutes before you need a group".
LOTR is driving me back to WOW because I never realized how nice it it to play a game with quests that are balanced, a map you can USE and skills that don't fail to go off 75% of the time. Mabye I need to try DDO?

Nothing except for an occasional uninspiring jaunt in a couple . Thought for sure I was going to be a longtime MMO player 11 years ago, not so much anymore. :( I'll check out APB when that comes out and am keeping tabs on Metaspace, nothing else MMO I've heard of seems interesting. |

It ought to be simply a running "what everyone is playing now" thread, updated every couple of weeks. Anyway, I mentioned this to Cheddar in-game earlier, but I'll post it here anyway. I'm more than likely cancelling WoW before my next billing and moving my main UO character to the Atlantic shard in the near future.
No regrets regarding WoW. I got a couple months of fun out of the deal, dinged max-level for the first time, and left behind a character that I can pick up next time I get the diku itch. As for the shard transfer, I was on either Atlantic or Europa anyway (I don't even remember which) before my old guildmaster decided he wanted to give things a shot again. But they've guilded/allied a bunch of "sup bro" idiots lately, and I don't feel like sticking around when Atlantic has more people and more RPers. Yes, I like the RP when it's not stupid.

LotRO, since I already have the Lifelong Subscription I delve into it every few months. April seems to be one of these...

Ok, feeling better about LOTR now I've finished most of the low level Bree quests and started on The barrows. The Old Forest is cool to visit. Signed up for the full game.
Also cancalled Eve. Bob's never going to lose and the game can't handle the lag of alliance combat, and never will. And I'll never have the cash for a cap ship.
So april for me is
WW2OL

Well, Righ and I are playing a little bit of lotro. I just completed my freebie trial and he just started it. I'll play for a month, maybe two! Maybe more if they entice me with awesome gifts and a pony. We're on a server wot starts with the letter A. (I have a boo boo on my memory)

The best thing about LOTRO was the music system. It kept me a month longer than I shoulda paid for the game.
Was pretty awesome playing allman brother's "Jessica" on my lute. Super mario bros on the horn. Ultima's "Stones" was very cool, actually had one guy recognize it. My dorf frickin' rocked.

Outside is the one I am playing right now. I think the subtitle is Real Life™.  In any case, still subscribed to LotRO and WoW if you want to list them as well, but haven't logged into either in over a month.

I miss Righ. He had a wonderful way of answering my stupid questions without making me feel stupid. That's a rare thing in games these days. |

I have an EVE account that I'm paying for. I wouldn't call it "Playing" since I log-in every 6-14 days to change skills. Seems kinda dumb of me to keep shelling out the money for it.
On the other hand, I can now fly HACs and Battleships, and am really close to fitting T2 med guns.. so .. .. WHEEEE.
And of course, I'm still plugging away at WOW on a regular basis, since I find it tons more fun.

Had a discussion with my friend and since I wasn't able to convince him to play something other than WoW, I'll get Burning Region and resub, at least until he can powerlevel me to max. Veroline and Killjoy ride again! Crushridge.

Oh. Wow. Really? Killjoy? Tell him to find something new or I'll punch him in the dreads. |

I'm with Merusk in the "Playing WoW, and paying to log in to Eve every 5 odd days and select a new skill to train" boat.

I wish there was a current mmo that grabbed me. I'm poking about in LotRO a bit (lifetime sub) and playing a bit of Mythos.

I've tried. Even my hard sell of PotBS was immediately dismissed. I couldn't get him to try Mythos, either. He's really hooked and as far as I can tell, both Mortok and Killjoy are well-known names on Crushridge. I can't beat him so I'll join him. Until I get sick of it. I haven't played a game I didn't enjoy since I quit EQ when Luclin was new. Also, a punch to the dreads is not effective, they are full of clay and metal, possibly glass as well. You have to go for his puffy jew stomach. |
