    Default Last MMO You Played Long-Term?

    So I always see people on MMO related forums discussing the game they are waiting for, how it will be the greatest thing ever, and so on. But then the game comes out, they are quickly disappointed, and move on to the next game.

    So since OnRPG forums are notorious for offering a good sample of this type of MMO hopping group, tell me, what was the last MMO you played for 6+ months, and why did you leave it?


    Mine was Forsaken World, due to the closed beta lasting 6+ months . Left to play League of Legends as a time killer until the live action games started releasing (Dragon Nest, Dungeon Defenders, soon to be TERA).

    Most recent one is Heroes Of Newerth. A since it went into early CBT and was forced to stop playing because it is killing my old computer. Stuck with LoL.

    Then comes Allods for around 3 months. Same reason as HoN. I really miss those 2 games

    Going even more back comes Bounty Bay Online. Played it for a solid year too. Though the patch with these "jobs" and overall gameplay overhaul completely ruined it for me. All the top guilds(incl. ours) quit the game. Some of them still hung around for a little while but then quit too. I would say that a "generation change" happened there. I dumped over 200 Euros in that game and I wouldn't change anything. Worth every cent.

    Even further back comes Runescape. Oh boy. 5 years definitely, hard to remember exactly how long I stuck with it. Similarly like with BBO the updates for the game really ruined it for me.
    Then there is Maplestory left. It kinda goes in the same timeline as Runescape though I started playing Maplestory a little later but those 2 were my top games. Played through CBT, OBT when Wizet actually owned the game. When Nexon took over I quit after a year or something, maybe it was a little later but it still lasted long for me.

    I am really picky in games and it is near impossible for me to find a game which I can stick with for a long period of time.

    I categorize games like this:
    1)The ones I play barely an hour and delete it because it is plain boring
    2)The ones which are a little more rare and can actually play for a whole day
    3)The ones I play around a week and quit.
    4)Lastly the extremely rare games which stick to me forever until the company decides to screw it over or my life just decides to screw with me.

    So currently I am kinda hopping through games just to kill time and hoping that one day I can own a better computer to run those games again.

    League of Legends. 4 hours per day for 7-8 months.

    I left because Dragon Nest was coming-out.

    I'd say Rose Online would be my longest played game. Probably put a good 3-5 years into it.

    Lineage 2 and Ragnarok are probably close to being tied for second with thousands of hours into each over the years.

    After that it would be a toss up between WoW and Mabinogi.
