Could anybody recommend a MMORPG? Something that doesn't take a lot of time? I stopped playing Eve Online due to time issues. And I am wondering if there is anything out there for a very very very casual gamer?

LOTRO is good for casual gamers especially if you pay 200 dollars and get a lifetime subscription, then you never have to pay a monthly fee again. The time commitment in eve is crazy, I mean its like having a second, a third AND a fourth job.

Amusing. You didn't want to propose you're not just a MMO-porn-addict BUT a real-life-loser too, did you?
Super Man Enough?

For someone who says in their biography they don't talk to anyone ever, should you really be throwing stones?

Played FF11, owned with my lil Tarutaru, quit cuz there wasn't enough time in the day for me to balance work and play.:attention: Went to WoW, too much drama and friends quitting, so... not so fun playing by yourself in there.:defeat: Switched to Maplestory, played for a few months but couldnt digest the cuteness of it.:murder: Now i'm just looking around for another game to keep me occupied, and it seems that Atlus has a MMO out there that looks like a persona game so... i guess that's next.:perfectplan:

I've completely stopped questing and farming and I only only raid and PvP on my main.
I make my money solely off of the AH, by buying greens for cheap, DEing them, and making enchants which I then put up on the AH. It's incredibly easy money. Not to mention lots of money. I guess that kind of makes up for the fact that enchanting is a gigantic pain in the ass to level. It's also handy to enchant your own gear when you get new pieces. You don't have to resort to buying lolwtf priced enchants off of the AH. Those darn avaricious enchanters! ...oh, wait..

Unless you've friends in the game and loads of patience for repetitive tasks, slow progress and very slow and punishing crafting system, I'd suggest you reconsider.

Logged in 3000 hrs yrs in Guild Wars. Hopefully I won't touch any MMO anymore. Stopped playing seriously 4 months ago. Just huge time wasters.

Aika Online, damn closed beta wipes, I miss my character already and open beta hasn't even started yet, lol..

:abandoned:

edit:failed miserably with the actual game, and the people from malaysia and europe bombarded the servers with spam, bots, and everything else you could imagine, as stated by gpotato themselves. Caused the game to be reset and changed once again, not worth bothering with the game for tons of reasons, failed game..

I honestly don't play much MMO nowadays. It gets tedious because you constantly want to go online grind for hours and hours just to level up and get the next skill. Though I will say I still do play one MMO. Dragonica online. Just on and off or whenever I have time.

Just gave Civ IV a serious beating.
Played as the Japanese Empire for 68 hours, controlling 100% of the population, 93.75% of the surface of the world and ended up winning a domination victory, beating all "opponents" and developing the Manhattan Project, SDI and Future Tech 34 times.

(Sorry if any one is muslim here but...) finaly it got so boring and repetetive until you get a hang of the interface that I wiped out Mecca from under "Saladin's" feet, renamed it Nakadashi and converted it to Taoist/Confucian faith before I finally dropped it.

Good background music but it is for sure missing a lot of features.
Would be a lot nicer if you could combine RTW battles with Civ IV strategy and civilization building to make it less repetitive, but it is still a huge time-waster.


PS:/ took a shot at Civ IV Warlords too but the cheat is so simple, I ended up with 8 cities, 4 Wonders and a stealth bomber by the year 3860 B.C.
