Well isn't that interesting. Those who think there are great games out use their time responding to this thread instead of playing said "great" games. How very... very.
Actions speak louder than words. If you are so content, you wouldn't be here - not to look for new games because you are satisfied - and you wouldn't be here trying to throw smart alleck comments at people who don't have their ideal game to play.
Yes ma'am, actions speak louder than words. I admit why I'm here - I'm unsatisfied. Too bad others can't do the same because it would be some sort of abomination to not like the current offerings. I'm not squeezing my square peg in the round hole and don't feel the need to pretend it's so.
Not sure but you do know that forum acces can be done from almost anywhere on any device that is able to recieve internet.
Games however can often only be played at home//family/friends....just asking because I always find it strange when I read comment's like "why is someone posting and not playing" Not everyone has instant acces to their gaming system. Unless that person asking why someone isn't playing does have 24/7 console/pc and for some reason thinks everyone has that.

What's the motivation for posting that you're happy with a game or MMO's in general if you are not?
Are you also saying that if someone is happy playing a game or MMO's in general, that they would do nothing else and just play? They'd never be interested in taking the time to talk to other people about a genre they like?

You know, there's this other even more awesome thing called sex. It's one of my favorite things in the world, and I doubt I'm alone in feeling that way. Even so, I, like many other human beings, prefer to get out of bed from time to time...

It's why I do most of my posting while at work or when waiting somewhere.

I think he was right. When i play AA first three months , i don't even have time to check forum or post something here. At free time , i am in game , not in forum.
MMO are large time consume genre , if you ready enjoy the game , there are no time to come forum.
Everything is more . Only thing that reduce is the limit of number of players
From Unlimited > 40 > 20 > 10 > 5 > 1
From MMO to MO , sound good ?
We used to have MMOs with unlimited players? Wow.
Are you from some alternate dimension? What color is the sky there?

Did you ever do world boss ? they aren't limited to 40 men instance. The possible number depend on the number server can carry at same time , but itself don't limited .
I've been playing MMO's for many many years and I have never had so many MMO's to play. I have one I'm playing now and at least two others I want to be playing now but don't have the time.
Marketing has changed with early access payed betas and kick starters, but I don't ride the hype train when it comes to the next great thing. I just wait and see. If it does live up to the hype I can always jump in after launch, no hurries, no worries.

I thought the OP was asking WHICH period do you consider was the worst period to be an mmo gamer. Instead it is whining about the current state of mmos.
Could have been an interesting thread but now it merely baited the trolls.
/agreed.... I haven't liked anything that has come out in a long while. I liked SWG-CU and pre- lich king WoW, everything since has been a disappointment. I am not paying into the F2P ghetto that the industry has become. If the industry wants my money they are going to have to work for it, and I don't mean flashy cinematics.
It's a good time to catch up on old school fun, like reading and watching TV.
Yeah the last time i really had fun in a mmo was Rift. Everything after that has been just boring as heck to me after 1 or 2 months of playing them. Had high hopes for ESO buts its just a buggy mess and gets worse with every patch.

IF gaming is all that you do that might make sense, I do many things besides play MMO's. I also don't play games until after nightfall, just the way I am, too much other stuff to do around the home on days off... I post on forums mostly when I don't have time to do something I won't want to walk away from in a few minutes. Right now I'm cooking my lunch... I also like to visit forums in the am when I wake up, or before i go to bed...
What green said is one of the most often used logical fallacies on this board, "if you like a game you'd be playing it now".. It's a nonsensical argument, there are plenty of reasons a person may be able to post, yet not play a game at present, failing to realize that is quite hilarious really.

The big theme parks are still around, there are more sandbox games than ever, cash shops in f2p games have improved, small devs can compete with the big companies, gamers influence games...Oh yeah it is so terrible right now.
Disagree with the OP and the typical folks who are posting in this thread. I think there are so many choices for MMOers nowadays with BTP and FTP that if you can't find anything, you should just unplug the PC until maybe Virtual Reality is released. I'm loving the huge improvements they did to Elder Scrolls Online since release and between that, me still trying to finish Dragon Age Inquisition, and the upcoming Witcher 3....I don't have time for anything else. Glad I'm not you OP.

"Well, let's have it. -- Do you think this is the least prolific period in the MMO/RPG - Markets? I know it's always a sitaution where we the gamers feel like we are ALWAYS waiting for the next title to deliver."
Other than eluding to the idea that we're always "hoping forward", it seems to me that the OP is clearing indicating they think it is the least prolific period in the MMO market, and that it might be time to just give up looking.
Maybe you were just sub-consciously projecting a more productive question?
Edit: Ah... nvm... I misread your second sentence.
I thought the time period being referred to was the upcoming one, like 2015, 2016. There just doesn't seem to be many MMOs being released, let alone AAA ones. Anything that might be of interest on the horizon is still a couple years away.
Recently there have been a good amount released that people have found enjoyment in. I personally found most of them to be crap except for ffxiv, but a lot of people are playing. Not sure how long they play them, but definitely choices out there. Not a golden age to be sure, but not the worst.
Also, I'm hoping the lack of upcoming MMOs is because people aren't churning out generic clone crap. So maybe we'll actually have some quality games, along with the cash grab kickstart types, heh. Maybe even one of those will strike gold.
I see that someone said i have no life , i only have few hours at night time to play so playing mean no forum. I don't hug the PC all day long or carry stuff to post things 24/24.
That's why i doubt they ready have time to post forum if they ready enjoy playing.
But some post was right , they post at work if they do something relate to PC. My wrong then
That is pretty much my hope as you have to throw everything at the wall to see what sticks. Of course the variety of games being made is what interests me most.
Mmos appear to be not making the shear profit the large companies once enjoyed and when that happens they are trimmed from their profit margins. This has opened up indie development again.
Right now is a very interesting time in mmos but largely because it is another transition period but I agree we are sitting in a bit of a dead zone if existing games do not interest some. I suppose one could always pay for alpha and beta testing and play incomplete games but that isn't something I am willing to do.
In 2 years we can enter all new debates over which recent mmos failed and why one niche mmo is better than another niche mmo ... basically the same old pointless debates over and over again. I hope there is a game or 2 though interesting enough to distract me from such debates. Many of these may be indie games but some have budgets of 6+ million (SotA and CU will be at least) and hardly tiny games (considering indie games can make equal AAA quality as 1/2 the cost or less).

Death is nothing to us, since when we are, Death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
Thanks! I almost spewed over the keyboard. These Chicken LIttle types are all over the place.
Paid Alphas? Check
Cash grabs at launch? Check
P2W? Check
Populations crashing 2 months after launch? Check
Community building? No
Content designed to last more than a month? No
End game, other than PvP? No
