I like quests, but the majority of the quests in LOTRO, and most MMOs for that matter, are mundane point A-B, Kill X-Y chores rather than an adventure.

Am I the only one who feels this way? And if this is universally true then why do MMO makers still follow this forumla? Especially LOTRO, considering it is a high-budget game touted to be a "WoW killer".

Sigh-- Ive been playing f2p MMOs through out my child/teenage years but as I get older and wealthier I find myself enjoying mainstream console games more than MMOs.

It seems MMOs today are plagued by either quest-fests, grind-fests and accompanied by the ever-popular slow walk-fest. I can't even remember the last MMO I truly enjoyed-- maybe runescape.

And yes, I just recently got back into f2p MMO-ing because PSN is down.

Please recommend me some MMOs too. =)
Ok, you know how high fructose corn syrup is like, IN EVERYTHING, and is bad for you?

Corporations could like, NOT put it into stuff, but it works on keeping customers hooked on your horrorbad product. Even, knowing this, they still do it. They don't know any other way around it, no healthy substitute. Even though they exist.


And thats why.

Plus, maybe they just keep hiring the same people to make games, ya never knooow...
