I just got back from playing a lot of Lost Saga. I've got a lvl 8 mage now... but I'm starting to get pretty tired of it... and soon I'll probably quit it like everything else.

The only MMORPG I've really stuck to is WoW, I hate to say it but it's true. That game has just blown away any other MMORPG I've played, especially the free ones; they really just can't hold up a candle to this P2P game.

Now I hate WoW because of how it screwed up my high school life, I graduated with a 2.4 GPA, not bad considering I was a heavy WoW addict. When I got into college I quit WoW and I'm getting solid A's on tough exams. I didn't just quit because of college came around but because of how terrible I found PvE to be. But the PvP isn't too bad, it's enough to keep me playing and having fun, better than putting effort into free MMOs and quiting after a few weeks.

I sure do study a lot and all, but I always have time leftover even after playing with the piano and going to the gym. I use that time leftover to play games. It's a pretty good amount of time, 2-3 hours each day unless I need some extra sleep.

SO I think I might go back to WoW for the PvP. I can PvP a few hours a day and get a decent amount of things done in 2-3 hours, and I'm confident that I can keep up with work and everything as long as I limit my gametime. If I can't managed how much WoW to play a day then I'll have the same trouble managing for any other fun things I do no matter what it is.

I've been thinking about it for a while, I've even watched that documentary "Second Skin". But I still haven't come to a decision yet. A lot of people I know look at WoW as a drug, and they really look down on it. I can understand why, but still I'm really tired of playing games that aren't fun. I'm a gamer, and that's not going to change anytime soon so I can't help myself but to just play something.

~Now, does anyone have a problem like this? Or thoughts? Opinions? Be blunt (but be smart about it), I want to see some comments. I heard onrpg is particularly against WoW so I'm interested to see everyone's thoughts.
