There is a beta weekend of The Secret World this weekend. Keys are being given out. I think it's worth looking at.
"Loading screens" are not "instances".
Your personal efforts to troll any game will not, in fact, impact the success or failure of said game.
Go play some Diablo 3 and Torchlight II when they release. There is also always Skyrim to play, it is amazing.
Grim Dawn, the next great action rpg!

I pulled out Witcher 2 and Skyrim again.
I pre-purchased d3 to help me pass the time.
My theme song.
Play TERA
Having the same issue. After playing the GW2 BWE, I have not touched another MMO. Mostly reading books right now when I am not out doing things.
play D3
I'm thinking of booting new vegas back up but not sure
There are times when one must ask themselves is it my passion that truly frightens you? Or your own?
Sorta the same with me. I do have a year sub on EQ2 and Rift, my wife bought one for each of us, Rift was a good deal, and EQ2 she got them on 3X SC, so it was like $40 for a year. We like both games but after GW2 BWE, we re not logging in as much. I hated Rift at first, but find it way better ow for some reason, and we ve always liked EQ2. With mercs we can duo all the content outside raids. We join groupd, but for our busy lives we duo alot more.
GW2 is the best game I ve played in a long while, and I feel sorry for any game out, or coming out up against it. I know alot of people will say it s F2P, so I can have a sub as well, but I think when alot of people don t log into their subbed game, they ll drop it because they re paying for not even playing.
Yes it s that good, and the WvWvW is an absolute blast. I didn t even notice or care if I got rewards out of it.
Tera could be a good fix. TSW if your in the beta. Firefall is also fun if your in on that. Not much can fill in for me. I jsut want to play some more GW2.
I'm playing Skyrim and TSW CB...also checkign the GW2 login screen everyday just in case.
Tera
Diablo 3
Skyrim
EVE Online
Family Guy Online (http://www.familyguyonline.com/)
Watch anime (you can start with One Piece now and may be able to watch the 545 episodes by GW2 release. When done with it watch the 366 episodes of Bleach)
Papercraft (make yourself one of these: http://www.tomopop.com/post_gallery_one_photo.phtml?post_key=3879&photo_key=
Cryogenic sleep.
Fake your own death, organize your funeral, see who shows up, yell at those who don't.
Walk around the street, stare at random people for a few minutes without saying a word, then eek really loudly and run away.
Invent a time machine, travel to the past to play the BWE again, repeat.
Start running, see if you can get a crowd to follow you like in Forrest Gump.
Go spend time with your family. If you don't have one or they're boring, go spend time with random people's families.

What can men do against such reckless hate?
Do the smart thing - get Diablo 3 and a gamespot free beta weekend for this friday for The Secret World.
i have an annual pass for WoW , D3 , BF3 and some PS3 games as well.
Plenty to play, i just don't the time to do it lol
But man, i wish i could play GW2 . Such a good game.
More characters also means more bank space... ah well. What's important is the GAME.
Play for fun. Play to win. Play for perfection. Play with friends. Play in another world. Why do you play?
As far as gaming goes, this past week has been pretty miserable, as I haven't felt like playing anything else after the GW2 beta. Portal 2 map creater free DLC comes out tomorrow, so that should provide me with hours of fun for a while. I fired up Final Fantasy Tactics yesterday, which, somehow, is always fun to progress through, each and every time.
GW2 kind of put me in the mood for Skyrim again, so maybe I'll have another play through before the official release. I simply can't conceive of playing another MMO while waiting though.
dont play MMO's, and you'll be fine. im playing DOTA2 and BF3, and played ME3, Witcher 2 Enhanced and Skyrim. D3 is coming as well if thats your cup of tea...
Since D3 is nothing like traditional MMO's and is a high quality game it probably will offer you a unique enough experience to tide you over until GW2.
What does WoW clone mean to the OP? quest system?
What is considered Asian Grinder? Kill same mob over and over, even if it has different names? or kill mobs over and over because questing system is horrible?
(aside from "true action comabt")
I could be way off, but I highly doubt it. I do not understand how ANYONE can read "I'm bored with every WoW clone and asian grind mmo." and suggest TERA... seems like you'd be setting the person up for rage when he found out it is an asian grind with pretty graphics.
so ya safest bet would be something like D3 because if you've played GW2 it'll make it really tough to play anything containing traditional mechanics especially if your bored with those traditional mechanics as you stated.
Thanks for all the replies
I'm in for TSW beta weekend that'll least keep me occupied this weekend then buying D3! I forgot it was coming out soon that should hold me over for a while!
Also signed up for firefall beta looks fun!
You haven't played League of Legends yet? That's a must play.
I got out my copy of Civilization 5...and it sucked me in and I can't get out.
Then to make matters "worse".....I got a mmog beta invite.
"problem" solved
I agree pretty hard to play Tera past the first Beta weekend ....I had as much quality time downloading the game as playing it
