    Default Which retail MMO to play?

    I'm in the mood for one, and I've pooled enough money together. What retail MMO should I jump into right now? Throw some reasons at me too, like if the game is filled with OnRPGers, etc.

    Mabinogi is P2P quality, and has a cash shop for it too!

    Or go jump on the WoW train, never a bad choice.

    I think most of OnRPG is in WoW. I'm taking this info off of Xfire.
    But I really hate the whole monthly subscription so I would buy Guild Wars.

    That's a MMORPG. As a everyday MMO apparently Savage 2 is amazingly good. And anything off Steam is great.

    Half-life source was not great!

    I really should get into xfire with everyone.

    Anyways, we can set aside the whole money issue, I've got that covered. Just focus on the game itself.

    WoW has it all then, since the guys on WoW won't quit like some of the community here for a f2p game.

    I've got a BurningC'd account already, so I could. I've also got Guild Wars with a Factions in it too, but that didn't keep me as long for some reason.

    Still, let's get some more games and more reasons. Thanks for the quick feedback muchachos.

    I like Mabinogi because it's more unique than most games and I am reassured that it has a bright future.

    Can see all the updates there.

    I liked the visceral combat in Mabinogi, but never stayed with it long enough. What's a lot of stuff that ups the ante when you use the cash shop?

    The Lich king didn't have much to offer other than the DK IMO. Its still good but it all depends on how dedicated you are to playing.

    WAR doesn't have anything good, skip that. CoH/V is where the party is at.

    decisions, decisions. Well from that selection i would put it in this order:

    WoW or CoH then WAR. Maybe CoH more though since the new issues will make you think wow ! especially if you played a while back. The new Trial accounts for CoH are so soo crap though but you said money wasnt an issue

    Yeh Useless really hit the pin on the head. WAR doesnt have much going for it at the moment. Haters of the game must be loving it though since its a big I TOLD YOU SO.

    idk I think WoW has more things to do, but CoH is just plain EPIC! Costomization is unmatched, and the world is large and creative. I still don't know why everyone like CoH apposed to CoV.

    Hows the population? I played it on release and it was already dwindling, and I've been hearing rumors about it being a shell of it's former population?
