Reccomend me a MMORPG
wMike:
I'd have to agree with the WoW bashers out there. Unless you plan to invest many long hours 4-5 nights a week to a serious raiding guild there is no point to getting into the game at this point. It's only been about 6 months since the release of the much anticipated "Burning Crusade" expansion pack and Blizzard has already said on the forums that there will only be 1-2 major content patches until the next expansion, if the game survives that long, and no new armor sets. Non-raid dungeons are repetitive and really not much of a challenge and Player vs Player Battlegrounds are rediculously one sided unless you're rolling with a group of well geared friends. I've been playing since pretty much since launch and sadly the game hasn't kept up with the times, not to mention buggy content and bad in game support make the $13-$15 a month fee (after the $20 game and $35 expansion) just not worth it.
P.S. anyone who's already playing, Phelaira lvl 70 Warlock on Alliance side, Eredar server

Somehow I have my doubts WoW will die anytime soon. You know, with 8 million subscribers or whatever it is now.
McTaggart:
It's not the wrong group to cater for, just the group you're not in. What they should really do is release content for all of the customers if they want to keep everyone happy.
Who would have thunk it that WoW would end up being all for the hardcore types and EVE going more and more for the casual gamer?
HeyBickley:
It's the wrong group to cater to from a business standpoint, because I highly doubt the majority of the 8 million players are in 25-mans and above. Most of them are probably people who log in to PvP a little, do some questing, then go to bed at a healthy hour because they aren't obsessed with the game... yet. The old Azeroth needs some updating, but they really couldn't care less.
And I want to be able to be a bird in Azeroth, where I learned the gorramn spell, thanks.
Storm Rider:
People are still playing the original Everquest, so I'm pretty sure WoW, which has become more popular than any other MMO in history, will still be open in 2015 at the very least.
And it seems like the next MMOs that everyone is really excited about are Age of Conan, Warhammer Online, and whatever the hell the BioWare MMO ends up being. The thing is, with the breakout success of WoW and the incredibly lucrative nature of MMOs, there are now like 5 million MMOs in development, because everyone wants to capture all the WoW players when the fanbase eventually tapers off.
