Hey all, I want to play a new computer MMORPG, Idk which one to pick. It can be either P2P or F2P, but all post your favorite MMOs (and reason why you play/video of cool endgame), just please not WoW or CoH/CoV.

I played Fiesta online and thought it was pretty cool...GM were doing events all the time in the middle of towns, so cool. Why not play RTS's or FPS's? There fun too

cuz i just enjoy rpgs more ... that 72 list doesnt really help me. i would like personal experiences and stuff u know? i like the pvp stuff in MMOS and everything. and i like economy and merchanting probly the most in MMOS. any ideas?

What's wrong with GW? lolz

ive played it. i didnt love it. too many gold buyers and a**hole 70s(yes i mean 70s, i didnt stay for WoLK) i got tired of being ganked at STV and tanaris. i just get pissed at WoW.any other large mmos?

Try Runes of Magic, i gonna try it out, looks really intresting, only downside is the name cuz it sounds more like a new version of runescape

Wow is by far the bast MMORPG you can get right now. so thats all im saying.

If you are familiar with SRO and sick of botter, grinding and crowded server try ecsro fembria.

PvP happened on a PvP server. Roll PvE if you don't wanna be ganked.
Introduction of dailies introduced inflation. Sorry you missed the memo on that one and instantly thought everyone bought gold.

Any more generalisations you'd like to make?

Im about to start up Final Fantasy X1 myself, so i dont have any experiences as of yet. Although i've played on my friends char at his house and observed a lot and it seems rather good. The community is incredibly nice ( the complete opposite of SRO ) and the GM support is unreal ( they do ban a lot of people if they try to cheat, they are the banning nazi's >_> ). There's a wide arrange of jobs so if you get bored of one job you can always pick up another if you wish it. Also it provides a lot of quests and skills such as mining, alchemy, goldsmithing etc to occupy yourself. Also the story line is superb from what i have been told, something that's hard to find in an mmo.

Was talking to my friend about FFXI before. Sounds really interesting. The fact that you can pretty much take as much classes as you want is something I've never heard before. Also, the level-syncing thingy that he told me also sounds interesting.
