Choose my adventure!

[acefisher1]

I have a habit of not sticking with an MMO... a serious case of MMO-ADD.

I read a blog on massively.com where one of the journalists let the public choose which game they're going to play, and then chronicle their adventures in the game, which the public then also gets to choose what they want the journalist to do.

I want to do this with you guys. The first step is choosing the game. I'd like you all to vote on which game you want me to play, and then we'll move onto which character, class, etc...

Below is a list of games I have and am willing to play at the moment, or haven't gotten yet, but am willing to purchase since most MMO's are fairly cheap at the moment. Vote away!

World of Warcraft
Age of Conan
Aion
Eve(haven't played past the tutorial)
Fallen Earth
Final Fantasy 11 and 14
Warhammer Online
Star Trek Online
Global Agenda
Lord of the Rings Online
Dungeons and Dragons Online
Guild Wars
Vindictus (haven't downloaded)
City of Heroes
Champions Online
Lego Universe
Star Wars Galaxies
Vanguard Saga of Heroes (don't own)

So without further adieu, post your pick, a reason why you'd like to see that game would be great, and feel free to post any questions you have about the game.

I'll leave the poll open until I feel there is a clear winner, and I hope you all take advantage of this. It's a great chance to see a game you may not have had the opportunity to see yet, or have some questions answered you've had and haven't been able to find an answer to.

I would say either Eve (hop in the eve vent channel, lots of people can help you) or City of Heroes.

WoW, Conan, Star Trek, SWG, Champions are fail games, so don't bother with those. (waits for the wowanians to come stone me)

Avoid Star Trek Online at all costs. I would go for EVE

Bolded the games that I enjoy the most. FFXI is probably one of my favorites, its just interesting. Avoid SWG, FFXIV, Vanguard, STO, and AoC at all costs. The games are trash.

WoW has a healthy fanbase, and with the expansion on the horizon, it is an ideal time to jump in. Good, balanced (kinda) combat is really fun, and a lot of the quests and story lines are quite interesting.

Eve is a popular game, but its like second life in space with combat and stuff. It is more Star Trek than STO is. We also have a division for it, with a TON of helpful people.

FFXI lets you play one character for all of the classes in the game. You can chose to play as many as you like once you hit level 18(?) where you get the option to switch you main class and also allows you to retain powers from a secondary class. The game is fun and very Final Fantasy-y.

LOTRO and DDO are both by the same developer, and are both really solid F2P games. LOTRO has combat more akin to WoW, where DDO is an Action-MMORPG with soloable instances and strong stories. LOTRO's lore in my opinion is stronger because I've always enjoyed LOTR more than Dungeons and Dragons, even though I run a weekly game.

CoH and Champions Online are both really good super-hero games if you are into that. CoH just got a new expansion, and Champions is going F2P, if it isn't already.

Yup.

Edit: None of this really helped did it because you wanted a vote. I vote FFXI or WoW. PM me if you chose to do WoW, I'll send you a Recruitment thing.

Global Agenda!

I would love to see more eGO get into that game.

Thanks for your votes thus far guys.

I do notice something though...

I've actually played all but 2 or 3 of the games listed above, quite a bit actually. I appreciate your views on the games, but we're not trying to sway someone to play a game (ie: "avoid STO" I already bought and played it, yeah its pretty bad).

Please just keep in mind that I've probably already bought and played every game listed above, this is just to help combat my MMO-ADD, as well as provide a resource to our community here.

Again, Thanks for the votes so far! Keep em coming!

I wish I had that kind of money. I hope my post didn't sound sway-y other than my blatant "don't play this this and this" part.

Sure will! It is on the list, but I spelled it out, which is actually very odd after using the acronym for so long. I felt strange typing that and WoW out in a full name.
