    Default Out of Curiosity: Who's searching for their MMORPG and Who's found it?

    So I'm sitting here on a nice weekend day with nothing to do but to look for a game to play. Since I'm commuting to college I don't have to move in to a dorm like most of my friends do. SO yeah, it's boring as hell, and often I find myself using up my time browsing this forum.

    Then I thought to myself: How many people are having trouble looking for the right game to play and stick to? Or How many have already found a game they've fallen in love with?

    I'm pretty damn sure there's another topic like this, but idc I'm making a new one. I just want to see how many people are having trouble finding a game to play.

    I found it in Fallout Online. I just moved into my dorm and I don't have much motivation or time to play anymore though.

    Here are my suggestions:

    Get a job to pay for commuting, and college fees, and for the mash ups

    Watch some tv (comedy central i reccomend)

    Find a GF

    Find out more about your college, like the immediate area, if there are any good clubs or pubs about, find info about freshers week maybe

    Find a hobby, cooking is mine, baking air biscuits :P (wink wink)

    And if all else fails, then whack it like a monkey in a mango tree (thm anyone)

    If you have a girlfriend, MMOs are hard to stay attracted to. I find myself on Fallout Online just hoping my girl will be home asap.

    The problem with ppl is that they are to dam picky and expectations are high. I doubt I will ever be able to find the right mmo for me. But I will be able to find a decent on with features that I like that will keep me interested for awhile.

    Have I found it? No. Will I find it? No. It is pointless. Go out. It is just a matter of time when you realize that time spent on MMORPGs was wasted. You may not think so now but you will later. I play an MMO a bit when I am bored as hell but that is for just a few minutes.

    Have you tried Mini Fighter?
    Falling In love on an MMO game is impossible but playing an MMO game for just pure fun would be classic!

    You really think it is that easy to find a job and a GF especially in this recession.

    It is impossible to find a good MMO.

    Fallout Online. I am in love with it. I tried many f2p + p2p games, etc and none besides Neverwinter Nights Online, which I played for 5 years straight, has held me so tight and playing all day long again. >.>

    Same here, but it's good to do something when you have nothing to do, or don't like your friends. (But playing overnight and all day and actually wasting money on the MMO is bad, because there are plenty of more things to do with money: buy clothes, video games that will catch your attention for 1 week and regret buying it, or saving it)

    @camel01: This is irony my friend, because of the nature of the forum and the item you posted. Lighten up mate...

    @TC: No, I still haven't found it, but the reason is everytime I think I found a good game, it starts to blow big-time.

    For example, my first ever game was Kal Online, it was OK till I got to level 30 and spent almost a week grinding in it to ge to level 32, then I realized it, unless I spend a crap-load of time on a game to the point of insanity, I'm not getting anywhere.

    I tried Silkroad Online and I liked it, but after the Summer Holidays, suddenly, I couldn't log onto the severs anymore...too many people, and spending 1-2 hours to login is no fun.

    Further down the line, and a few games after, Bloodymare came next. I loved it...till lvl 40, and after that I quit. After researching about the game, the lack of content was what turned me off. Top lvl is 70 meaning I had only 30 level left to go and the content was starting to run dry...logical...

    As I said, everytime I'm about to have fun, somehow down the line, the game fails me bad, lack of content, endgame, too much grind, the reason's are countless!

    Even Neo-Steam turned me off and Atlantica Online, both games were fine, but both lacked the 'feeling' of accomplishment of sorts of ANYTHING, even doing the quests for those games felt...mute at best...

    Next few days I plan on trying SUN and see about it. Hopefully, it's will a decent game and will be somewhat fun.

    Hehe, agree. You have more chances finding a perfect mmo than perfect GF.
    Matrix has you...

    Meh I feel Aion is the type of game I've been looking for for a long time. I like PvP centered games and I liked warhammer online but they did a lot of things wrong and screwed up (if only just a small bit) because I also like the PvE but that's almost non-existent in warhammer sadly...but aion mixes PvP with PvE and that makes it sooooo intense, I almost cream my pants everytime I see battleground dreadgion videos or fortress battles in the abyss.

    Yah anyways...I've had that before and back when I didn't know how to do deal with "ADHD" as they call it these days, I played GunZ for years upon years, I eventually stopped a small time after they moved to ijji for several reasons lol one being the cash shop and the idiots who moved into the game etc. not that the game didn't have them before...

    Then a year or two later I got into AoC (just this year actually in jan/feb/april) got to 80 loved the game but the lack of pvp really bothered me so I quit and I had like 3 or 4 piece of t2 and the t1 weapon...so yah...gear grinding isn't really my thing though it can be fun if only the game made the bosses not glitch and gave them more dynamic abilities. as well as made raids smaller for some of them.

    Hell I enjoyed xibaluku more than any raid I ever went on.

    I guess I found a "perfect" MMORPG in Anarchy Online, but I've pretty much stopped playing the game since like a year ago, partly because I got bored of the mid-level grind for F2P players and partly because the new laptop I bought had a piece of shit graphics card.

    Other than that, I have found another MMO that I've stayed with for longer than a week. S4 League. Still playing it atm.

    Tried playing SUN Online, I got to lvl 22 and i'm bored.

    You play the game, easily level up 8 levels in 1 hour. Then you reach an instance that you must complete... It takes 3 hours to find a group and some mag always ruins it for me by disconnecting etc.... There are 3 instances up till level 18 I believe and they are all so bland.
