Truth, but then he will get bored and come back here saying SO AND SO GAME HAS NO ENDGAME BOOHOO. :/

I only wish there was a game like that for more casual gamers like me and you.
But there is none, you have to spend 300 hours to get to max level and then when you get there you realize the game has no end game content and you go for another game.

I know. I simply don't have the money to spend on a game account.

holy crap which game other than guild wars takes only 300 hours (12.5 days) to hit max level!!!

(yes i know guild wars takes alot less time than that, but its the only mmo i can think of thats even as short as 300 hours.)

4 options for you.

1. Take a game that has a feature or two that you want

2. Wait for the game that has the features you want.

3. Don't play MMOs

4. Make the game yourself (hate this suggestion, but nothing has satisfied you yet)

And just to be fair, I don't like any of the things you don't like.  I'm tired of grinds too, but I have fun playing MMOs.  If you really can't handle the grind, then MMOs are not for you ATM.  Until something without a level grind (or at least not an important grind) is released, you have to deal with it.  If the fun outweighs the grind, I will play the game.

wait ive got an idea, go play one of those unofficial private servers. The ones with the x50million exp rates. if you do that you can play any mmo you want for the most part.

That's actually a good idea.  I've tried private servers, and they suck ass.  They will, however, allow you to be instantly powerful, if you find the right one.  They even have hackers all over, so not only can you be powerful through in-game mechanics, you can cheat even more to be more powerful. This might be good for some people, but I'll take the grind over this any day.

Uhm WoW? You could hit 70 in 200 hours easily.

could just be me but CoX sounds perfect for you

- I don't want to spend hours trying to make money.

Just by playing you make enogh to buy what you need.

- I don't want to have max level to be good.

Use's Side Kicking so you can play with lvl 50's from the getco.

- I don't want the grind to take forever.

can get max lvl in 72 hour's pre P14 (duno how long it takes with the new playermade arcutect system.)

- I want a variety of things to do to break from the grind.

Mhe 3/4 arnt bad :D it has pocket D basicly a virtual chat room, with P14 you can make your own Mission's (I like this part albeit it seems people use it to quickly grind toons)

but all in all like most other retail MMO's its combat base and also like other said F2P games will be more up your ave. that or FPS games then your all equal form the getgo just as long as you can hit the broad side of a barn :p

It is possible to get to the level 80 cap in that time frame if you know all the quests and zones. My last 80 character took about 13 days played from 1 to 80. It would take a new player longer, but I wouldn't expect it to be a whole lot more.

I think the OP should stick to FPS, and maybe Oblivion (with cheat codes of course...can't be fucked to get levels, right??).

Or hey....probably SWTOR when it comes out....you can be a glow-bat wielding UBER JEDI DUDE from day one!

MMORPG = Alot of wasting time, usually griding levels what is equal as huge differences between players.

Hard to recommend anything for you, try: Guild Wars, City of Heroes, Ultima Online

Jade Dynasty.

As we speak, I am meditating and gaining experience. =)

S4 League sounds like the game for you :)

I think the last guy that said that was put down all because it is asian.Damn the OP is picky.

The current MMO paradigms only cater to hardcore over achievers, but the industry is slowly but surely moving away from this, so just give it a bit more time and you may find one that appeals to you or me and others that feel the same way.

As of now I'm playing *cough* Runescape. 

Though if I ever get hyper and twitchy, I can always give Jade Dynasty a try I guess, since the grind is apparently quick.

 I'm glad you found a game you may play.Now people will stop flaming such and such so i don't have to urge to comeback to think about a game for you but fail and not post :)

 I think I know what  I want for a game now. I'm looking for an MMO without the need to grind Over 9000 hours to actually be good at. Basically, what I'm asking for is...

 

- I don't want to spend hours trying to make money.

- I don't want to have max level to be good. 

- I don't want the grind to take forever. 

- I want a variety of things to do to break from the grind.

 

Overall, I just want a game that doesn't require Z0MG 1337 SKILLS AND OVER 9000 HOURS PLAYTIME to be able to do well. I've never managed to play any MMO for more than 3 months so I'm using this approach to finding a game.

Play some shooter then. But you will need some years to name yourself "good" lol :)

PS: Looks like WoW is the one for you. Even if WoW do not fit your taste them MMO genre is absolutely not for you.

free realms or ether saga online is for you. take care now

A couple of people have suggested City of heroes/villians to you. I have to agree, That is the best chance you have. Depending on your play style and how long you play, you can be 50 in a month. If you hook up with some power levelers, it could be reduced down to a few days. Heck, there are companies offering to power level people 1-50 in 24 hour period. So it can be done. The grind isnt bad though, pretty much enough missions to keep you going and at most you may have to grind out 1 level every now and then to get to your next story arc. Its easy to make money in the game to, just selling off your salvage to the auction house can net you millions in a very short amount of time.
