[General Discussion] Quitting MMORPGs

I agree with JackyBoy about alot that he said about EQ1. From what I remember, in that raiding was more for fun then because you NEEEDED to do it. That and I think that for alot of people, your first MMORPG just has this magical feel that you won't feel again when playing another one.

I've played alot of MMORPGs. Everquest, Everquest 2, Dark Age of Camelot, Final Fantasy 11, Matrix Online(Aweful), Star Wars Galaxies(More screwed up then I thought imaginable), City of Heroes/Villains(What I'm playing now).

If you're like me, then when you decide to quit a MMORPG. It's like you suddenly don't know what to do in your spare time. I kept buying some console games and alot of DVDs that have all piled up due to MMORPGs. It's like I have so much stuff to do now, I don't know what to do. I'm still playing City of Heroes but that isn't as all consuming as some of the other ones. I'm planning on trying Age of Conan when it comes out but if that sucks, I'm either gonna play CoH or be done altogether.

On a side note, my social life never really suffered from MMORPGs because I didn't have much of one to begin with. But I still hung out with what friends I do have.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

There is a game like that, it's called City of Heroes.
