Didn't get hooked by anything since Aion's very first months.
But right now I'm having a blast with Age of Wushu :
1/ old school feelings : non instanced open world (only instances are actually instanced), miriads of NPCs and secret quests.
2/ Open PvP dramas all day ! Pure drama really since dying is meaningless in the game. So even if you are being PKed a lot, witch will hardly happen due to the infamy system : it's no problem if you have no anger-management issues.
3/ awesome gameplay : not a "generic asian crap" like haters says but something mixing old school tab-target with arcade/Action gameplay. Really short GCD, parry, feint, dash... keyboard/pad skills DOES matter. Skilled players will shine in duels. Lamers too
4/ tons of fun PvP events (live pop ups or in-game opportunitys and scheduled events)... for single players, groups or ZERGS.
sure the game is far from being perfect and balanced, but if you take it on the bright side : it's awesomely refreshing.
WARNING !
The PvE is pretty crappy until the higher tier stuff. Only there it starts to be a little challenging and fun. But PvE, as it is now, is definitly not the point of AoW.

If I'd have to play an MMO these days, it would probably be Fallen Earth.
FE is actually something to check out since it's pretty funny to be a noob and make your way to the end of the road in this game.
But I hardly see any reason to play FE on a long run but of course RPing.... not even sure if the game is still really active.
Well, I must admit I didn't check the game since some times after Bloodsports' release.

So, how is Defiance? is the questing ok? or is it just as i think....a massive shooter online with public quests?
The questing is less public, more phased. Sometimes others doing the same thing at the same time can join you, but you can be with someone in your party and they'll disappear in an area if they're out of phase. A bit disconcerting. It is, mostly, a massive shooter online, but the persistent world gives it a nice MMO feel. And to be honest... it's a lot of fun. It really is. It'll be my second game to go with Guild Wars 2.
Main MMO is and will continue to be GW2. I could go into details, but long story short it's a great game that tosses out a lot of stale and stagnant MMO concepts and replaces them with an active combat and a world that feels like it's living and breathing. Best MMO on the market, period, in my opinion.

is defiance still considered in Alpha? doesnt it release in likw 2 weeks? I really didnt like the UI in the weekends i played especially the chat window..its practicly useless.
Among MMOs, just GW2. I have largely run out of stuff to do in the game and I don't pvp, but I still find it to be one of the best games. I love the combat on my thief, I like GW lore and the world is pretty.
Mostly playing Skyrim and Fallout 3 with lots of mods, trying to finish Witcher 2 and recently started a new game of Neverwinter Nights 2.
I'm waiting for Neverwinter and TESO but I know both of them will be 1-2 months of fun and then I'll be done with them both. They just don't make MMOs like they used to
I tried Neverwinter beta twice. Both times I literally fell asleep, not figuratively, literally. I have narcolepsy, though, so it happens . . . but very rarely while being entertained. I did manage to report a bug before I gave up though . . .
Just trying to live long enough to play a new, released MMORPG, playing New Worlds atm

I wish I were playing an MMO right now. Or rather, I wish there were an MMO worth playing right now.
I'm trying so hard to still enjoy this genre but the last few years have been hard. I don't want to accept the fact that I've eithe grown and changed as a person or that the games have grown and changed as a genre.
I've tried just about every pay to play MMO and a very large chunk of free to play ones, and I see no hope in sight.
But right now I'm having a blast with Age of Wushu :
Vind, do you know the difference between Age of Wushu and Age of Wulin?
One is for NA one is for EU.
yep... but also : AoWushu release =10th of april and is allready playable.
AoWulin seems to be vaporware. CB been delayed over and over for 2 years now.

None.
When I want action, I play DOTA2 or TF2.
When I want to challenge my brain, I play MTGO.
When I want to relax, I play Skyrim.
If I'd have to play an MMO these days, it would probably be Fallen Earth.
Let's play Fallen Earth (blind, 300 episodes)
Let's play Guild Wars 2 (blind, 45 episodes)

Aion, because it's as fun, full featured and populated as any other standard theme park game and F2P to boot.
Just holding me over until something new comes along that appeals more to my particular tastes.

I'm still having a blast in Everquest, started at launch and always seem to gravitate back to it.
