Yeah, next year is looking like it could be very, very interesting for MMOs I’m going to give STO a whirl once I complete SC2… will let you know what I think!

I’ve tried Lotro, City of Heroes, WAR, and Champions to break my World of Warcraft addiction. Eventually, after watching Scott and Longasc banter back and forth on Twitter about STO I also decided to give it a try. I’m not saying it will break my WoW addiction, but right now, it has it on hold and I’m loving it.

I wanted to try EVE, but I just don’t have the cutthroat in me for some reason. I love a good PvP, but EVE Onliine just makes normal PvP look like a stroll in the sunny afternoon park.

This should hold me till Cataclysm comes out or at least till something new comes along that I have my eye on, like DCUO or SWOTOR. Both look increasingly great. Who knows, this time next year I could be blogging about STO or WAR 40K online

I’ve seen a few ’shots of players who managed pretty good Jem’Hadar equivalents. The character creator is exceptional in the market today.

Yeah I want to try LotRO again but I’m thinking of waiting until the F2P edition hits us. Then I basically trial it for free and upgrade only if I get into it.

Hehe yeah, the brownness of DDO did put me off a little STO is far more colourful. Now to just figure out if I can create a Jem’Hadar in it?

Currently have WoW, STO, and 5 EvE accounts (skilling) active.

Played DDO before and after the F2P switch. It was okay, but is very WoW like in the fact that you need a group for most if not all content.

Never played Allods.

STO lifetime Subscriber here. While I really haven’t played much since the first month, I have patched a few times and logged in just to see what has changed. STO was fun, but the content was lacking at higher levels, not sure if that is still the case. I think the update includes some episodes for Klingons now, so I may have to try that out. STO is very casual, log on due an episode or two then log out. There are some episodes that will make the game even more fun if you have knowledge of some of the TOS episodes.

I am waiting for LOTR to switch to F2P. I purchases a copy when it was released and had fun, but didn’t want to pay for that, WoW, and EvE.

BTW the screenshot is from one of my most loved games of all time. I remember playing that my dad’s 386 when I was 1st or 2nd grade. Think I still have 5 1/4 floppies around somewhere.
