Am I just done playing online games?

I've been trying to find a MMO game to play since I left WoW a few months ago. I've tried almost every MMORPG at least every one I could find that I thought would interest me. I usually find one or two reasons to dislike a game and those reasons eat at me until I start to hate whatever game I'm playing.

Here are the games I've tried and the reasons I eventually grew to hate the game.

* WoW - I think I just played too long but the reason I finally left was it was taking me 24 hours played to get 1 level with my 5 box team.
* SWG - I only left because of the combat update I never grew to hate this game.
* EQII - I left after my main (Paladin) could no longer tank, went back after 2 years and loved the game up to level 50 then leveling was too slow for me.
* LoTRO - I left originally because of high repair costs on my main (Guardian) came back after 18 months then quit because of slow leveling speed after level 30.
* WAR - I stopped playing after level 20 because the game just got boring to me. This game was to me the most fun game I've played since SWG.
* City of Heroes - I just got bored after a week.
* Pirates of the Caribbean - I'm still playing but making gold is just too hard foe me and I always lost my gold gambling. I end every night with 0 gold.
* Guild Wars - I didn't like all the instanced zones.

Currently I playing Runes of Magic and it seems fun but I don't think it has longevity. I have been thinking of trying AoC as I love the Conan books and it seems almost like the last game left.

Anyone have any suggestions for a MMORPG? Should I just give up trying to play MMORPG games?

I've played several others as well....sometimes you just need a break. Whatever your game of choice is, overplaying can definitely lead to frustration and boredom.

This forum definitely adds excitement to the overall Pirate experience. Not only is it an extension of the game but a great place to have fun with great people. POTC Online always seems to have me coming back for more.

Gambling is a vary tiny part of the game POTCO. If you come back to it, don't gamble at all (the dealers cheat, by the way. The only way to get ahead is to use your own cheat cards, that you get from killing mobs.) Board public ships frequently and your gold will steadily increase.

I'm hoping they'll make a Hero Rising game or something, to match that show Aaron Stone.
