Id like a new game to get addicted to
A little about me.....I started with EVE two and a half year ago...but after half a year I was kind of uninterested in it . Around this time of the year in 2007 I started with WoW...which would bound almost an eternity ( atleast it felt like that) THings I liked about WoW were the different races, classes, instances, loot and the immersion...it blended althogether so well! I played contionously with some breaks to either not play anything or try other games . LOTRO was one of them but my WoW love was quickly rekindled when the expansion hit.
Till a few weeks ago I played still with a little joy...something that now has waned...I guess the jar is now empty. So I am now actively searching for my new little addiction. In a previous post I said what I experienced with other games but Ill write it down here aswell
Tried LOTRO: Liked the immersion but......the animations and characters and queuing of skills put me off. I still have it installed too. REsubbed but regret it since I know I wont be playing it anymore^^
RFOnline: I followed the tutorial for about 10 minutes...completed that and started..... the interface, the way I ran, cameramovement and the scanditly clothed characters bugged me....so I threw it away
EQ2: Brrrr....dislike the graphics and the overall feel....didnt last 10 minutes
TAbula Rasa: Nice graphics..but its a little too fast paced for me and thecrosshair targetting made me crazy...and I didnt overly enjoy the setting
Vanguard: THis really looks like its a half-finished game...I guess it had potential. ITs also extremely lagging
EVE Online: AT first I as attracted to it but yesterday when I resubbed again I immediately logged off....the slow skilling, too dry game content and politics, game rules are a turn off for me...I guess I am just not the EVE player I used to be
So thats what I tried so far.....so what do I want/seek in a MMO?
Well...
I like
~Character customization....thru body/hair/height styles, talent trees(WoW) traits (LOTRO) , various types of loot, i.e: normal quality, rares etc
~An economy...always nice to trade the things you have or need
~Immersive environment: I like good graphics.....impressive looking mountains, water pools, animals, grassplains, structures, cities..etc
~PvP : I like PvP, its good fun . WoW PvP was pretty nice...although EVE had more charm with its PvP system, which was also more punishing in the end
~THe feeling that you are indeed very powerful if you use/equip your skills/character well . WoW didnt really gave me this feeling..dont know about LOTRO since I havent played past level 10
~Fantasy or Sci-FI or Other: I dont really mind, aslong as the above-mentioned criteria are there I am fine with it
~Longetivity: I would like a stable, well supported game thats here to stay
So basically I had the best time with WoW, followed by an ok time in EVE at the time I started MMO's and fell dissapointed at some of the LOTRO aspects, which made me put the game aside aswell
Sooooo...that was my wall of text ( which critted me )
I hope someone can advice me...be it an excisting game or one being developed
Greets,

No one has any tips on what to get next?
unfortunately not mate youve tried all the mainstream mmo's.
same boat as a lot of people just stuck with nothing until age of conan or warhammer comes along.
