Well, I'm prettymuch done with Planetside for reasons I posted in the CDL forums, and will repost or explain if anybody's interested. That said, I need an MMO or else I'm gonna go nuts. Granted, Doom 3 is comming out soon, but that's only gonna last me for so long. I've basically narrowed it down to EVE Online or City of Heros.
I was in City of Heros' beta and absolutely loved it. Great pickup and play aspects, particularly the sidekick system. However, it seemed to lack depth in the long run, and that's the main complaint I've been hearing. On the positive side, I think I saw gametime cards in stock. CDL has a presense there, too. City of Villians looks really cool. Again, the pitfall would seem to be a lack of content later on, but how much less content then PS can you really have?
Then there's EVE Online. Lacks the pickup and play qualities of CoH, but looks to be really good once you get into it. I don't want to call it a learning curve, but it seems to have a rather uphill climb to meet the financial and equipment level that any prospective other players have. However, Shiva looks like a badass content/refinment release, which appeals. Plus, there's nice PSU guys in there like Infernus, and Electrofreak. I don't know how many of the trialers decided to stick around. I haven't seen any gametime cards around, if there even are any.
What does everybody think?
