Which MMOs are you playing?
MMOs have gone through a slump in recent years as the market has been dominated by World of Warcraft, but there's still a huge number of interesting games available out there. The purpose of this thread is to check interest in what's available so that we can arrange hook-ups and know where everyone is - so how many of you are currently playing an MMO, or are willing to start a new one?

If you'd like to see what's available, Zell posted an excellent resource a while back called ggFTW that offers the latest news on what's going on in the industry, as well as an elaborate Wiki which gives a nice amount of detail on the various games as well as a comprehensive list with a user-generated score so you can quickly sift through what's available and separate what's worthwhile from the junk.

So, what are you guys into right now? :sparkle:

I'm not playing any MMOs right now as they have fallen out of favour with me, but this could possibly change when Guild Wars 2 comes out as that looks to be pretty darn good, and there's no monthly fee.

Aside from that, I'll be playing Diablo 3 and I'll actually have time to sit down and really get into StarCraft 2 :D

I'm not playing any MMO at the moment, as there...doesn't seem to be a good one out right now. Some friends and I are anxiously awaiting for Tera as it looks like it's really going to be awesome. And let's not forget Phantasy Star Online 2, that should be fun. I'll probably be trying out Star Wars and Guild Wars 2, but other than these, no MMO action going on right now.
Heeeere's Johnny!

I have been spending a lot of time on DCUO. I think it's pretty fun and I've sunken 50 odd hours into it only after playing it for a week. Gameplay is similar to GW (reach max level, expand skills around that) and I swear some of the music is the same too. I'm looking forward to GW2 and DCUO is here to cover that hole until beta arrives (yeah, I know, GW1, but DCUO has superheroes :<)

WoW is losing subscribers, but F2P games are picking up a lot of those players. I honestly wouldn't mind playing any of those once I get settled in here in the UK, as long as we get enough active players to actually do some group content.

Looking to GW2 and possibly SWTOR in the future. Diablo 3 (while not an MMO) will probably sink a lot of my time in the future as well.

Just gave RIFT a try last month because it was on sale for $7.50... its pvp is better than wow, but it needs a lot of balancing and the pve is seriously lacking. Would not recommend.

I think most people who would be playing MMOs right now are firmly glued to whatever screen has Skyrim on it, tbh. The game is pretty sweet.

The next MMO-ish game I will pick up will be Diablo 3. Until then, sticking to FPS games.

So, a new MMO from Square-Enix called Wakfu launches on Wednesday, the 29th of February (the beta ended last Wednesday). It's kind of like MMO Final Fantasy Tactics, where each person controls one character in a party (or you may go off and fight stuff on your own, but I think playing in a party would be a lot more fun). I don't really know a lot about it as I discovered it right before the beta closed and I didn't have an opportunity to get in on the fun, but would people be interested in checking this out? I already know I'm going to play with some of my friends from home, but I'd totally be up for playing with you guys as well. I'm really excited about it, and I can't wait to start playing.
