I when through a phase after WoW where I though all MMOs sucked.  I stopped playing them for a while.  But then for some odd reason I started appreciating them again.  Now I’m having a blast in CoV, but I could also enjoy PotBS, WoW or many others.

I’m not sure what the change was.  But I don’t feel as obsessed as I used to be.  I think taking a break and playing other types of games helped.  Perhaps it because I don’t have some grand ideal that doesn’t exist.  Or perhaps it’s because I find things to appreciate and I find ways to challenge myself.

Or it could be because I smoked a lot of pot in high school, I’m not sure.

Yes....I am having tons of fun in Vanguard:Saga of Heroes. 

I just subscribed to EVE with my old trial account. It's the only MMO that's still an MMO these days and I'm enjoying it.

Yeah I went through the same thing, although when I left WoW I kept playing other games till I found one that I liked enough to play for a while. Vanguard is a good game I played through beta and about 4 months into the launch till I got banned for a week then I went to LOTRO for about 6 months or so... Then.... I returned to wow JUST TO TRY OUT BC. Now after being back in WoW for the last 6 months I am really bored of AGAIN (I haven't logged in, in 3 days) But AoC will be out soon and I have high hopes for it.

Love it or hate it ya can't deny for its time Blizzard built a solid game, and did a great job capturing the minds of a lot of people including myself. But with that said the reality of it is the game is 4 years old and in the fast paced world most of us live in, if your not dropping an expansion every 6 months your doomed.

Out with the old in with the new, bring on the next gen MMORPGs!!

I was adicted to my first mmorpg i have played for a year.That mmorpg is full of bots, that is the reason i have quit.

Now seems like no mmopg attracts me...i don`t know the explication.

Lotta folks would do well to realize there's some accountability on their parts when it comes to their ability to like a game. 

You probably lost any conviction you had against the genre if you're able to enjoy now, what you couldn't before.

I changed similarly. I stopped World of Warcraft sometime in 2005, picked it back up earlier this year and maxed out a character...but didn't find it fun. I didn't hate it, I just didn't want to play anymore.

So I picked up Dark Age of Camelot, something I played from launch to 2004. I set aside how old the game felt to me for the first hour or so and fell inlove with DAoC all over again. All the little changes I saw that were put in simply to bring the game up to WoW-era conventions I could appreciate for how they uniquely fleshed out DAoC and improved it.

So yeah, I've been having fun RvRing in DAoC. i'm planning to go back to City of Heroes/Villains once Issue 12 is out. I always have fun with that and really never let my subscription lapse...but I'm a veteran reward junky.

Silkroad, right?  Its ok, you can say it.  We all know Silkroad is so full of bots at this point that only gold ticket buyers can log in.  I feel ya man, I feel ya.

For a free game i think was great.

I have enjoyed Sega of Ryzom too but to bad the game has no owner:D

I will give  a try to LOTRO because all my friends are there so...

I am having fun with TR, before that I tried a number of MMOs from EQ, EQ2 to WoW (again) to V:SoH. I settled on TR not because I was tired of MMOs or the others weren't good I was just tired of fantasy MMOs.

  A shame its no longer free....

  Since to log in you now need to pay the 15 a month for a gold ticket or be eternally *&$%blocked by the endless bots.

  I suppose I should answer the OP though...

  No, I'm having fun with absolutely zero MMO's now.  I've played too many, and now I cannot stand them.  I need something different, and it may be a long time before it comes.

I'm having some kicks in Mabinogi, kinda amusing that the AI responds to you(even if it is just rock paper sicissors type mechanics) and that after the starter areas the rest of the game is pretty much make a mistake and you die.

Can't imagine myself sticking around for years like I've done elsewhere, but it's not bad all things considered.  

Oh and I made a missile command game(in 100% working state, just not balanced or pretty), I might shove the applet on my website eventually.   The internet is an MMO right?

Yes, EVE. ;)

I am fighting the urges to go back to CoX.  I know I would turn angry quite fast and it wouldn't be pleasant to anyone...I overplay the game and all the changes they made...bad bad. :P

But maybe I could enjoy the game anew with the Epic, they haven't been changed ever...and I could always play a MM, MMs are fine and cool...nothing to say against MMs specifically (buffing maybe, but could avoid all the constant rebuffs setting)...it is just that MMs are kinda unwanted in groups and I hardly see a reason to developp them, it hardly change much, they are so weaks, everything is their pets...and these can't be changed much with IOs.

It's natural to go through periods of burn-out; every MMO player I've ever met has gone through it a few times in their gaming life, myself included. It's like you're playing a game and you really want to do well, you want to maximise your character and make him/her awesome, and you're having a blast doing it.

Then the next day you just suddenly lose the drive. You log in as usual and it just doesn't feel right. You can't put your finger on exactly why it doesn't feel right; it just doesn't. The fun factor just isn't there anymore.

That's pretty much what happened to me with WoW.. I was at the top of my game in the most progressive end-game guild on our server, envied by a great deal of less accomplished raiders and on track to complete my T6 set.. then one day I just couldn't be bothered with it anymore.

This EQ veteren has a lot of fun with WOW. But of course I am only about 4 months into the game so I haven't exhaust all the content yet.

If you count laughing at them fun...then sure I'm having lots.

I'm having fun right now in Everquest

2 Years in DDO and still having a blast.

Ya i had the same Deal with WoW. Just kinda burned my self out, but i found i missed My guild and just people i got to know alot more then the game it self so i called it quits and have been on a journey to find the new mmorpg for me

I'm not playing anything atm. Just patiently waiting for Aion to be released while I research/keep up to date with pc hardware, and working out to waste some time. I played FFXI for about 4 years and enjoyed most of the time playing, but I got bored of the game a few times and took small breaks in between. Played a few other MMOs and could never really get into them. I can say that I'm quite bored about playing nothing. ><
