Sorry for the lame ass topic but need help.

 

I played WOW for a while know and i liked the game until i hit 60. Slow lvl'ing and no story or rewards mde me lose all interest in the game. Don't want to end up as a bored 70 only dueling and sitting bored in chat rooms at Org lol

I played dungeon runners, made me wanna play dungeon seige

 

I just couldn't get into Lord of the rings, not a good transition from WOW

 

Will buy Conan after I see 30 days of reviews, but any other suggestions?

If you do not have time to do it right, when will you have time to fix it?

I'd say try something new out.  After playing mmos all the time they begin to appear all the same or cleche.  After getting tired of an old mmo or getting ready for a new one I usually find some thing different to play that still is fun.  Like atm Im playing gunbound.  (Kinda got tired of WoW for a bit)  Gunbound is a pretty good game away from standard mmos, it helps to refuel me for my gaming life.   A link to their website is in my sig, its kind of a gentle game when it comes to animation, but I enjoy the thinking it sometimes takes to play this game.  (Maybe im the only one who has to think)  Anyway, try it out, its cool, im sure others will agree to a good point.

MMORPG Character Monuments

...When its time for your character to take a well deserved rest...

It depends on what you want out of a game. What was it you liked, or disliked about WoW.

If it was the grind, you may want to look into guild wars or DaoC which have the lowest grinds around.

graphics, take a look at EvE Online.

If you want something with PVE content on par with WoW (and not LOTRO) Try out EQ2

Good Luck

I liked the character devolopment about WOW, I think that was one of the reasons after lvl 60 I lost interest. It just slows to nothing.

In my honest opinion I think the expansion killed the game.

There really are no great MMO games out to play right now.  Age of Conan seems to be decent but not incredible by any stretch, WAR is another WoW clone...

I think Bioware or one of these Indy developers is our best bet.

Go check out the Fallen Earth forums, it looks refreshing, skill-based (not levels), and is due out later this year...

It might be the one that will tide a lot of us over until a new batch of MMOs that are skill-based come out.

Me want Sandbox again.

Impressive; I see you mean 60+, but still...if you think that way about WoW, please don't ever play any game I play. I expect you to be apprised of which games this entails by pigeons breaking into your house and crapping on you whenever you think about doing it. ;)
