So I'm just making this post here because I tend to trust this and respect this community more than others.
Basically I started off with Ultima Online for around 6 years as my first mmo and favorite sandbox ever. I won't list my mmo pedigree of the list of themeparks I've played but UO and SWG where always among my favorites. I've also been playing WoW for about 8 years, MoP dragged me back after a year hiatus. Well now the shine of pandaria is wearing off and I'm a bit at a loss.
I have a few issues that I just can not shake no matter how hard I try, I'll list off my reasons for leaving games.
Rift: lower population makes me nervous for longevity of games life.
UO: left because friends left
SWG: never joined a guild so I got bored and left after making a city
SWTOR: left because the negativity got me (even tho I enjoyed the game)
TSW: never really gave it a shot after week 1 because rift distracted me
GW2: honestly I missed having a carrot on a stick and progression
Those are some of the main reasons I leave MMOs and I'm an all or nothing kind of mmo gamer, when I select an mmo I go "ok I'm in this for the long haul". Another huge thing that detracts me from mmo is all the corporate nonsense, I like swtor but the more I read about EA and bioware being bad or whatever makes me not want to play swtor and it annoys me a lot.
So the point of this post, does anyone have any suggestions on overcoming negativity about MMO's and just playing what I like? Or more importantly does anyone have any suggestions for maybe a better sandbox or good theme park mmo?
Basically playing no MMO right now makes me feel homeless!
