What MMO to play?
I´m looking for a MMO to play. I´ve already played Guild Wars, World Of Warcraft, City of Heroes/Villians, Tabula Rasa, EVE-Online, Lineage 2, Matrix Online, Lord of the Rings Online, Pirates of the Burning Sea and Star Wars Galaxies. I´m thinking about Age of Conan, but i don´t quite know. Any sugestions?

Right now id recommend staying away from AOC, at least untill they get their bearings. With the recent fires and hires...give them some time. As for a great MMO right now.. you can try WoW its got alot of content and you can do alot and it will keep you busy for a long time. However the game becomes a gear grind fest end game..which is annoying but hey everyone has a different poison. Warhammer is alot of fun and has a huge amount of content and just released 2-3 weeks ago. I highly recommend that game (high fun content imo). Another game to look into is Aion..it looks good.
I would highly recommend Wurm Online. Its basically a virtual world where anything is possible. You can build a house where ever you like and set up a life. Its different from many other MMOs which is a good thing.
It takes time and patients but I'd give it a go if i were you.
Agree, stay away from AoC and try Warhammer. It's said that Warhammer would be WoW killer in a article: Who is World of Warcraft Killer
The only game I am playing at the moment is Atlantica Online, if you are into strategic turn-based games(there are not many out there) you'll definately enjoy it.
I also applied for a beta key for Runes of Magic, still no reply though. ;-/
you're in the same boat as me soulshaker. I'm playing Atlantica right now. lvl 63 atm and it's very fun. so far I haven't needed to do any type of grinding. The quests are cool and Tie into real myths and some real events, like Vlad and bran castle being Dracula. or the queens son being a minotaur in Cretan Labyrinth. for those of you who took Mythology in school :P also the crafting system is really cool, it allows you to craft while you fight by giving you a workload percentage and after every fight an amount of that percentage is filled until it's 100% and you get the items you are crafting. I personally was not a fan of turn based combat before this game, but after playing it i am hooked. The game has a perfect blend of Skill/Strategy and gear that will determine If you win a fight against a monster or boss, and for pve this game focuses alot on skill and strategy. i have seen lvl 30s kill lvl 50s in Free league just because they planned out there attacks better. Also bosses add a real challange to what could be mindless grinding. Even one of your first boses the Hellish fairy seems to own many a noob. Making people actually think about how they are gonna go about killing a boss instead of just grinding their way through it.
>bam555, I agree with you, it's really a good game. You are really high lvl, I don't have that much time to play, but as you mentioned - it doesn't require that much grinding, I enjoy doing the quests and also the free league is not only about just who has the better equipment and higher lvl, but it requires strategy about how to use your skills and formation. And the developers are really trying to give out benefits to the users, like the Auto-Move Feature, which many considered as a cash shop item. And also the ongoing events are really nice!
Wow you have a very high level. I am only level 20 at the moment. And as of now, Atlantica Online is the best MMORPG out there right, well that is only my opinion. They have used the turnbased battling system into a good use, and as mentioned above, they have the auto move feature in which the player automatically goes to the next quest, and gives you time surfing the net while playing. Also, the graphics are great, as it is in 3d.
