Hello,
i have been playing video games since childhood and enjoyed playing mmorpgs since i first got my hands on wow.
the first years were a blast, mainly playing war, aion and as i mentioned above, wow.
after that i had manny on off relationships with almost every mmo out there, i played everything i could get mit hands on but couldnt really settle down.
my last mmo i played for a longer time was ff:arr and i dont really know why i quit, but i did it.
and here is my problem, because i really really want to settle down in a main game. So here are some things i want from my game and some i dont care about or hate:-)
what i want:
-first and most important, community and grouping. I miss the days during my wow phase where you would just group up for some 2 hour
deathmine runs with random strangers or guild members and sink some time in a game you like with some really cool and nice people
-Item farming, i like to farm, i like to loot and i dont mind some grind. I loved to farm my instances, just to get my shiny sword from the last
boss that is just a little bit better than mine but looks awesome. Even if it took forever...
-dungeons and raids, i love them, exspecially when they are hard and have good boss mechanics
-battleground pvp, i dont have to explain that, i just like it
-good graphics, minimum wow standarts
-exploration and beatyfull maps
i dont like:
-heavy sci-fi settings, wildstar was okay, swtor was too much...
-heavy open pvp, i just dont like to be ganked
-p2w cash shop and early excess
- boss mechanics without tactics and huge dps sponges that take forever to kill without anything to do than just
stand there and hit them
-crafting, its just not my cup of tea
last but not least there should be an european version of the game because i am from germany.
i would mind to try out something beside the big mainstream games and i wouldnt mind Playing something i played before as long as it has improved and fits my needs. I consider myself as something in between casual and hardcore, i can spend quite some time, but only if the game hookes me up.
I would like you to shortly post why you think your recommendation fits my needs and not only post the name of a game and fly away ;-)
hope you can recommend me some cool stuff or maybe even invite my to play something with and alongside you :-)

Based on the "dungeons and raids with boss mechanics" I'd say TSW or AoC. Maybe TSW is a better match, it has better community (sorry, fellow cimmerians
edit: sorry, left out the rest of the list
-item farming: that's the endgame of both, massive gear grind with instance farming on several tiers (sadly, imo, but if you like that, then it will be your game for sure
-battleground pvp: both (I don't pvp in neither one, personally. AoC also have player-built guild cities and combat)
-open pvp: TSW nope, AoC nope on Crom, the PvE server
-cash shop: TSW only cosmetics and content, AoC has a bit more, but still far from pw2.
-Eu version: nope to both, TSW has single-server, AoC has the same just with rulesets (but Crom was the best (go Crom
Things that are on my mind now are:
-returning to wow, but i think i would be disappointed :-/
-playing gw2 just for the somewhat cool level and exploration experience, at least that what i was told xD
-returning to ff:arr
-try some asian mmorpg with some good grind (aion, tera, etc.)
So, what do you guys think?
