I'm looking for MMORPG's that play more like console-style action games. Similar to Vindictus and Dragon Nest. I've already signed up for Tera and Age of Wulin's betas.
There is also Dungeon Fighter online, one I found to be quite enjoyable, it has an old arcade style feel to it. There is quite a cast of characters, each featuring 3 or so jobs to change into. I suggest trying it out if you already have not.
Elsword- Often advertised on this site; I also suggest this, it is a side scroller with 5 characters to choose, each having two different job paths (a 3rd path is planned and a 6th character is on the way) Fast combat that mostly relies on stringing together comboes to prevent the enemy from falling down to maximize damage. PvP is similar in that, you want to prevent them from escaping your combo by executing one that usually involves resetting the knockdown to keep them stuck in it, but they can still escape by sacrificing a small amount of mp. This game also has a stamina system-limits the amount of time you can level via dungeons.
Grand Chase- Elswords older brother, still rather popular and completely different, I would go as far as to say it is far faster than Elsword, but you die rather easier than in Elsword. There is an immense cast of character, 14 I believe, with another on the way, 9-10 of which have 4 jobs to play as which you can switch to and from inbetween matches, and 3 of which have 2 jobs. Elsword>Grand Chase in both population and community (opinion based, of course) but Grand Chase's years definetly make it worth a play.
Rusty Hearts- The most console like of them all personally, the graphics are gorgeous, the music is quite nice and the style overall reminds many of Devil May Cry, I believe there are 4 characters and each has a choice of 2 different weapon styles, I highly suggest giving this a try, it is worth that at least.
La Tale- Maybe, maybe not. It is closer linked to Maple Story (but different in so many ways, it being easier to level in is just one of the differences), but it has a diverse amount of classes and isn't a point and click, I won't go into much detail since it may not coincide with your requests.
I also suggest keeping an eye on Raiderz, it is made by the creators of Gunz I believe, and it looks like it will prove to be interesting.
I hope that I have been of assistance to you, and I wish you luck in your endeavors.
Thanks for all of your suggestions, though I'm not really looking for 2D sidescrolling MMO's. I'm currently playing Elsword and Rusty Hearts off and on.
Hm, I can't believe I forgot about RaiderZ. I'll add that to my list of action MMO's I'm looking forward to.
