Those types of shooters can be fun, but only in very small doses. There are just too easy and very boring IMO. I don't like to feel like some god when I play a shooter.

I believe that EQ2 is free to play and I heard that they seperate the Pay to Play people from the F2P people with different servers or something. Anyway, I liked it when I played it so try that.

I want to play a good RPG. I am looking for something like Bioware's games where there is a good story with lots of choices to make that alter the story in some way. Does anyone know of any games like this at all?

Also, does Baldur's Gate 2 work with Windows 7? I remember trying to play it a few years back but I was young and got real bored and I would really like to try it again sometime.

Personally I feel Rift is very very generic and while I haven't read much about Old Republic, from what I've understood there will be a lot of instanced and solo play right? I feel like that is a huge step in the wrong direction of mmorpgs. As for TERA, well it does look a bit good. And you forgot to mention GW2, I know the first game wasn't a real mmorpg but this one seems to be one right?

Actually, The Old Republic isn't going to focus a lot on singleplayer. It is just going to have a major story involved with it and different outcomes depending on your dialogue choices and such, seeing as it is made by Bioware. I think that since they are focusing so much on the story it will be a good improvement for MMOs. I mean seriously, I don't think there has ever been an MMO with a good, captivating story.

Valve has been giving you free updates since launch and then they release an OPTIONAL store that doesn't affect gameplay at all and you get mad? I don't get it. Plus royalties are given to modders who made weapons and you can donate to map makers so its all good.

Not hard, healing is a pain in the ass, everything is the same as it was before 'cept for healing, now it's all slow, ineffective immobile and inefficient. The other issue is, they are too damn long, way too many trash pulls. BTW, wtf is AO and DAoC?

I love the new punishing mechanics, such as one shots, or massive aoe, positioning, but I don't like how weak, slow and just bad healing feels atm, maybe I just leaved the two Worst healers, Druid and Shaman...

However, for pugging, these types of mechanics just = headache, since you get endless waves of garbage tanks that either can't figure it out in a couple tries, or just can't rinse and repeat enough to finish a fight (especially in stonecore) Or, dps that can't out dps the tank, tanks that can't tps and move at the same time..

There needs to be a dungeon finder qualification system, to get these utter baddies out.

Inconsistancy

AO=Anarchy Online

DAoC=Dark Age of Camelot

I agree on your idea of a qualification system. Didn't Wrath have something like that with a gear requirement? Maybe they could expand on that.

For a while now, people all over have been complaining about the new heroics being too hard. Basically they are impossible to PUG because after one wipe, everyone quits. First, I really don't understand why people quit after one try. Have some patience for gods sake. Second, in case people haven't noticed, Blizz is really trying to promote guilds with this expansion. Notice the new guild leveling system and the perks guildies get? Join one, that way you won't have to worry about PUGs. Overall though, WoW has been much easier than many other MMOs out there, I mean anyone here play AO or DAoC? But I am just one opinion, thoughts?

I think SWTOR will do better. First it has Bioware behind it, their track record is perfect, meaning it will probably also be amazing. Second, from what I have been hearing people say, this game is basically getting all the SWG players that played before it got all screwed up with those patches. I also see this game getting a huge marketing campaign behind it. Too bad it still won't beat WoW. I predict 5 million buy it 3 million keep with it.

Wish they had tried to do more. I remember playing Operation Flashpoint with a crazy amount of people. Fun times.
