I have come to the conclusion that your first MMORPG which you invest time into will be your favorite.
It didn’t matter to me how awesome WoW was, it couldn’t compete with my first true love Asherson’s Call, where I first discovered everyone was in the same game (mmorpg). I am certain this is true for all the ever quest boys as well… they will always have deep feelings for EQ. I am not saying WoW isn’t better, I am saying WoW wasn’t first.
I have tried a lot of MMORPG to find that one that would replace my original addiction but they all come short. Frankly I don’t think it is possible anymore… your first MMORPG has something that no other will ever have. Originality to you… I certainly don’t believe that Asheron’s Call was the best MMORPG ever, but because it was my first where I learned what MMORPG meant it will always be the best to me.
Now in my old age (36) I have all but given up on MMORPG… After trying about 20 my standard routine is set in stone. I play for a month get bored and begin building a bot which I run till im banned. WoW I managed to run a bot for 1year 24/7, I made a few bucks there
