This.
I prefer MMOs, but playing solo.
I still (very) occasionally play WoW, and that's pretty much the only game I ever play.
I'd love to try a new MMO, but they're all "free-to-play" meaning "pay to win". I just want to pay a normal monthly subscription price and explore cool worlds. Maybe interact occasionally with some other people in a guild or pickup group or something.
It's what keeps my WoW subscription active, even though I rarely play it.
Sadly, it's gotten so bad that I spend most of my brain-dead time reading Lit RPG stuff, because at least with that I can recapture some of the sense of wonder and excitement that we had during the golden age of MMOs (UO, EQ, DAOC, AC, SWG, etc...).
- danaris 2y agoYou could try Final Fantasy XIV—it's a traditional regular-subscription MMO that's actually picked up a lot of users in recent years. It's much more story-focused than WoW, which is a turn-off to a lot of people coming from that tradition, but it's got a free trial.
- claytongulick 2y agoI prefer the story based thing. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give it a shot.
