None of the ones coming out "soon" excite me even a little. And the ones that are later than "soon" don't do it for me either.

Maybe "titan" will be worthwhile, but it's probably 2 years from an actual name and announcement.

Planetside 2 could be cool, but, still a "meh" title for me.

Hockey Season is my next "massively multiplayer" endeavor.

I'm in MMO limbo for the most part. Been playing since the days of Legends of Kesmai and Dragon's Gate on AOL. I've absolutely outgrown what is being offered as state of the art or innovative now a days. Yet, I still yearn to be impressed. I will continue to try new stuff out and hope something jumps out at me, however, because the hunt is part of the fun.

The one that doesn't have the same formula that the entire current crop uses. Namely:

level up

spend points as you level to "customize" (lol) your character

grind [stat/faction/money/etc.] to gain arbitrarily delayed rewards

repeat steps 1-3

[optional] participate in canned PVP with a tiny, limited population, in a "balanced" (lol) class mechanic
I'm sure one will arrive someday but nothing I'm seeing now breaks the mold. Also, I'm not looking at MMO-FPS games at all.

The one I make. Be the best mmorpg ever.

Anyone got a spare $50m kicking around?

Thanks, but it's been fun

I've been saying that to myself since
...yesterday.

Loooool, thinking you can do anything in the gaming industry with $50m.

Why would it? That's how every MMO since the beginning has been. It's not really an MMO at that point if it doesn't have at least most of these things.

Gonna try SWTOR as well. Most of my guild seems interested and we're bored out of our minds with wow.
