Uhm, the OP does want a new game, not wow or something else old.

And Wow doesn't work for all people, taste differs, don't make anyone crazy for liking any game or not.

So reccomend him any game that been out a few months or will be out soon.

Vanguard is the most underrated mmo on the market. Ignore the flames i will get for the statement, take the time to look at it and download the trial.

If im wrong ill buy yo ua coffee.

Vanguard saga of heros is the best pve experience out there.   People who enjoy playing goog games [and not just bitching for the sake of bitching ] need to give this one a fair shake despite the bad launch.

I agree. VG is a great game as it stands, but with the shaky launch and bad rep, there just aren't many people to play with.

I await Jumpgate Evolution and Stargate Worlds, it would be nice to see some gamers programme an MMORPG that they'd enjoy. Rather than programming a mass appeal turd that fails miserably on all fronts then blackens both the name of the company that programmed it and the publisher.

I'm always vigilant and hope that SGW will be the one, but who knows what goes on in the boardrooms of some of these companies now? Since WoW the guys at the top are rabid to hit the big time and share a piece of the Blizzard pie, often resulting in a piece of crap being farted out after 5 years that ends up merging servers and job departments at the company that made it.

The next awesome MMO? Only you can answer that after it's released, one gamers awesome is anothers idea of eating virtual glass. Until release all we have is hope that the company making it aren't a bunch money chasing dicks that never played an MMO and only learnt the basics of surfing porn. However that would be an accurate description of most of the decision makers at these companies in my opinion, based on what they release.

Look for Dark and Light. The whole world is waiting for it. It's the next Ultima Online.

Fixed it for ya. Don't stop believing.

Try Runes of Magic its in closed beta atm Open beta starts in december but its an awsome game and its free. http://www.runesofmagic.com/en/index.html

Anything that is NOT a Themepark MMO, or similar to WOW cause so far all ripoffs and clones have failed, TBH there really is no next awesome MMO , not until devs start getting innovative and get away from the level based , compressed class/profession mechanics, getting rid of instances and endgame raids, loot based economies, and target an older audience that will stay loyal to them for years, stop making dumbed down games for casuals , soloers, and anti-social twits, and carebears. At one time when the MMO held credbility there was some very quality games out there now, we have total shite and too much emphasis on mass appeal when everyone has different tastes. Most real MMO players outgrow the simplistic, child's play MMO quickly and cancel their sub and look for the next MMO to give them a real challenge. I'm really starting to think that people wouldnt know what a true MMO was unless it came up and slapped them in their face.

How do you know the developers dont' like playing mass appeal turds?

If the game can appeal to the "masses" why can't it appeal to some developers? Did ya think of that?

Because if they are intelligent enough to get a job as a game dev they probably aren't going to want to spend their free time playing something designed for six year olds
