Think about the last MMORPG that you really enjoyed. What was it that made you enjoy it so much? I’ve played, or tried at least, almost every MMORPG out there, but I’ve only truly enjoyed a handful. The ones that I truly enjoyed I ended up sticking with for years. This got me ...

They drive men crazy. They infuriate and infatuate
us. They make us feel the heights of pleasure...
and desire and take us to depths of despair and jealousy. Yes, MMORPGs are a lot like women. Sexist and chauvinistic, I hope you have as much fun reading this as I had writing it. Everquest EQ ...

Daily Blogroll 7/16 — Lost in Bree edition
West Karana —
... There’s a lot of things you can do in today’s MMOs, but which one activity is the MOST fun? For Keen, it’s leveling. I dunno. I tend to think of leveling as a chore, where I pay $15/month (or whatever) for the privilege of doing boring, repetitive tasks. I only enjoy leveling when I am having fun with the game, and levels come when they come, but there’s no urgency to move on from where I am. ...

Why Do You Play MMORPGs?
