With MMO's being a choice between EVE, ultra-niche games and the rest 95% geargrind MMO's I simply choose to spend my money on other things.
We dont need casuals in our games!!! Errm... Well we DO need casuals to fund and populate our games - But the games should be all about "hardcore" because: We dont need casuals in our games!!! (repeat ad infinitum)
GW2 for MMO action as I like the world, skill system, combat and events
and a couple of sides orders of Darksiders (the original before I play DS2) DS is fun action game with a mad combat system and lots of punching pedestrians in the face, nicking cars, punching villians, smashing cars up, punching more pedestrians, getting pissed, punching lampposts while pissed, all in GTA IV.

For now it's GW2 every now and again along with farting around with DCUO. TSW about once a week for about 10 minutes at a time since I own it and it went B2P I figured what the hell. Plus some FTL, Bloodbowl and running through all of the DoW2 series again.
TERA: Because En Masse is awesome and gave me game time until February, after which it goes F2P. I will continue to play solely because of that (and the game is fun once you get past the banal questing).
Path of Exile: I will be playing this after the wipe. It's not as good as D3, but has some really good ideas and I want to support a small company which has obviously put a lot of effort into the game.
Drunken Robot Pornography: Game is as fun as a basement full of doped-up asian college girls. Not that I would know anything about that... infact, pretend I didn't say that. Although speaking of basements...
Dungeon Keeper 2: Oldie but goodie. The Kickstarter for War for the Overworld gave me the urge to play a few hours, and now I can't stop.
And a ton of other games I need to play / finish. Darksiders 1 & 2, Dark Souls, XCOM (I love this game and don't know why I've only got 10 hours in it!), Retro City Rampage, Endless Space, RAGE, Natural Selection 2 ... damn I need to stop buying games. Hard to resist when they're only $5-10 each though (damn you Steam!).
Originally posted by a63ntorange SWGEMU because its free, and brings back what was outstanding in mmo's. Open persistant world, open world pvp, sandbox crafting economy etc. You cant beat that, and noone else is even trying. Oh and its free.
What are you smoking, and are you blind, this is not true at all..... Maybe not Bioware, EA, Blizzard or Sony, but tons of people are and have been, open your eyes a little.
Lol path of exile is way better than D3, it reminds me of D2, and way better then D3 by far!! Man people don't know what good games are today..
Defiance Beta for me
WAR Z a little, until the hacks are fixed , which is prolly never.
TSW - Playing this game as I find the gameplay, questing and story amazing. I got a bit burnt out playing too many Sci-FI and Fantasy MMO's, so this is a good change for once.
Bioshock 1 and 2 - Bought it for 10 dollars on steam, never played them. Awesome games though.
haha i just got bioshock 1 today. never played it but people say its a gem Havent really played that many non-mmo games in past few years, so its gonna be nice to play a game without 300 delivery/kill 10 rats get their eyes quests for a change :=P
as for mmos, noone really. Maybe gonna play Aion or Tera for a bit, after im done with bioshock, most likely aion - mainly because it has non instanced housing which i miss so much i newer games, and half decent crafting system. I heard they made it so crafted items are on par with other end game gear now but not really sure about it.
Update: Playing Everquest 2 and having a grat time once again! For me, it is the best mmorpg today, period! So much to do, so much fun and great community. Ahh, love it!

Rainbow Moon - a fantasy turn based tactics style RPG for PS3....old school and fun.
Age of Wushu - a nice change from standard themepark MMOs.
Diablo 3 - on the weekends if I'm completely wasted.
TSW - because for some reason the only title which keeps me motivated and I love the immersion
Game Cube "Rogue Squadron II" on Wii - because SWTOR space combat was so bad, I needed my SW fix elsewhere
Wing Commander Saga - in preperation for Star Citizen

TSW - Just here for some PVE and finish quests/achievements in Trans. I'll be done until after a few issues (content patches) get added.
EVE - For PVP and meta gaming. I have a strange relationship with this game, I love EVE, but I only play for a few months at a time. I don't know why.
Normally, I rotate through, EVE, AO, AoC, EQ, DCUO, betas, and WoW (haven't played the expansion yet) over the span of a year.
Splitting my time between:
The Secret World - When my wife isn't around to play.
Guild Wars 2 - When she is.
Looking forward to: The Repopulation. Excited to play in an actual world and not a themepark again. It's been a while.
Joined 2004 - I can't believe I've been a MMORPG.com member for 20 years! Get off my lawn!

Playing some FarCry 3 every now and then, that's about it.
I wish i could go back to the old times, playing WoW and Rift with my friends. They all quit, life took them elsewhere and we lost contact.
Couldn't go back to these games all alone and i find it too hard for me to socialise these days.
Guess i grew out of gaming.
Still playing GW2!
For me it´s simply the best MMORPG out there atm! Just Born & so promising and fun!
Let´s give it a couple of years more of development...
Also playing TSW, Batman Arkham City , Torchlight 2 & Path of Exile (Beta) !
Great games!!!
Diablo 3: Because I enjoy it
Far Cry 3: Best FPS I've played in quite a while.
TERA: Because En Masse is awesome and gave me game time until February, after which it goes F2P. I will continue to play solely because of that (and the game is fun once you get past the banal questing).
