New to PC Games. Need some advice

The last game I played ona pc was Aliens vs Predator back in 1996. I like a good MMORPG but I swear if anyone suggests WoW Imight loose my cool. Other than that I am open to anything really. Good MMORPGs anyone?

My tip is stay away from those damn Korean MMo's they will take both your rightfully earned time and money

What's wrong with WoW? (hah all Ws in that sentence) It's a good game and there is a reason why 1100000 people play it. Other MMOs don't quite cut it.

Just not a big fan of how cartoony it looks. Call me crazy but if I'm not a big fan of paying to play online anyways.

Thanks for that. EVE sounds a little TOO deep for me. I don't have a whole lot of time to play games. lotR was never my interest. Conan doesn't quite do it for me either...I played DiabloII a long time ago and that seemed to be more along the lines of what I enjoyed. Thanks man.

Why do you want an MMO if you dont like any?

If you have ANY doubts about EVE you should probably pass, or at least do the steam 2 week trial first. I'd bet your doubts will be valid, because it has the worst combat system for a MMORPG, to the point where all the visuals have NOTHING to do with combat, you could play the game entirely through the menus without once looking at your ship. And not to mention the travel system is terribly 2-dimensional for a space game.

I'm not a big fan of MMORPG's but it sounds like Age of Conan would be your best bet, because it's sorta like wow but without the cartoony adolescence feel of it. Maybe you should play offline rpgs instead? That's what I've been doing, and generally they are alot better quality and give you a story instead of a mindless time-sink.

Wait for Aion online way better than WoW. Hekynn

If you don't have much time and liked Diablo II, I would recommend Titan Quest, you can play with your buddies, it's fairly long and also a lot of fun if played with friends!

Or stick with Diablo II because it's so much better than that mediocre borefest of a replica.

Just play some korean mmo's. they are very fun and addicting, if not too addicting.

EVE is an excellent game. . . The only trouble is that it is really, well slow with a steep learning curve.

Guild Wars isn't bad. You don't need to pay-per-month, you don't need to spend a huge amount of time playing to get somewhere, and its not "cartoony" like WoW is.

Personally, I think WoW is excellent. Just takes forever to get out there.

Saying you think a game is excellent without elaborating is pretty much a useless post, unless you're like really well known or something.

Yes there's a reason... it GRABS ON TO YOU and doesn't let go that easily. Seriously? Is it anything that doesn't cost in that game?

WOW sucks, plain and simple. and just because there is a large number of people playing it does not show how good it is. it just shows how many people are still living in their parents basement with addiction issues.

The large number of players actually does show how good it is. Why would all those people be playing it the first place? There addicted to the game. :?

I just heard about Diablo III. Anyone know when that will be released? I am playing through the EVE Trial. While it is visually stimulating the game itself is not a whole lot of fun. Surfing menus for hours is not exactly my style. I'm being really picky, I know. City of Heros / Villians looks promising though thanks for that suggestion.
