also tryed this Tera i quit after 40lvl FFXIV i quit at lvl20 boring quest / combat / also Wildstar before F2P i cant stay more then 1Month maybe MMORPG is not for me maybe should i look for MOBA every MMORPG is very repetitive with shity boring quest

    If you enjoyed L2, you may want to try Black Desert for the PvP. Join a good PvP guild and enjoy.

    Ok well, if you are talking about private servers then I don't think most people can help you.

    Private Servers eliminate grind, buff up drops, etc.

    Since the game you are looking for is probably going to be one of the Asian games then they have a lot of grind. That's just sort of their nature.

    The only thing I can say is play Elder Scrolls Online and just do pvp in Cyrodiil. Especially if you like tinkering with builds.

    I've been all over the place gaming wise since 2005, around the time SWG died. Surprisingly I couldn't even force myself to play EVE more than 6 months at a time. As far as thempark MMOs go I've a hard time sticking with all of them longterm; except GW2 which I find curious considering it's super themeparkish and nothing close to an openworld sandbox, but it's easy to play in short bursts.

    I can't play most for too long anymore, I always fall into feeling "meh more of the same" and tend to give up.

    In regards to more of the same, I agree. 

     I've been playing Dark Souls a lot lately and it's nice to play a game where you aren't running around picking up, following, and handing in quests to level up.  It's more about exploration and you can level up by grinding or you can beat the game at level 1 if you have the skill.  I don't have the skill so I level up.  For me, it's hard even after leveling up and getting good weapons and armor.  Dark Souls also has a lot more meaningful character customizations.

    Can’t help you with wow as I was never into it. However it might fit the bill as it does seem more friendly in eliminating things that players don’t like

    You should accept the fact that you're burned out and stop playing.

    Most MMORPGs worth playing longer than that are old enough that most of the player base is fairly mature (as in, have been playing the game a while) and have forced social circles.  This increases the barrier to entry for newer players, since these games are social in nature and players come into them with that expectation.  Playing an MMORPG largely solo with no active guild or circle of players who are open to inviting you to groups, etc. (not PUGs, as those tend to not communicate much, anyways - so the experience is not the same) makes the game a lot more boring to play.

    I also feel like ARPGs have missed the board with the emphasis on constant rerolling.  I feel like PoE could have potentially been a nice alternative to an MMORPG, but I can't be bothered to constantly reroll and relevel characters for their leagues.  Same with Diablo III and Seasons.

    I don't think newer MMORPGs like Elder Scrolls Online are all that great, to be honest.  The gameplay lacks depth, and the way they have designed and balanced the classes is very offputting to people who want clearly distinct classes to play - especially when they're looking for specific types of classes.

    I like Necromancer/Warlock type classes, and ESO has nothing that really fills that niche for me, which makes the game torture to play.  It simply doesn't appeal to me, at all, as a result of that.  Same for Guild Wars II.  This leave older MMORPGs like WoW or "pretty much dead"  MMORPGs like EQ, EQ2, and Age of Conan as the only viable options...

    Many of us have already been there, and we stopped playing them for a reason.

    I'm thinking about learning a MOBA and going that route, soon.

    OP - because 1 month for MMORPG is how long an average gamer plays these days.

    So it just means you are part of the majority that moves on after 2-6 weeks

    Just way too many other game releases happen within each month to stay 100% devoted to a single game.

    Play games on rotation - it works. Don't feel bad about getting bored after a month - it just means it's time to switch games. Oh and it's always easy to come back - as majority of MMOs are F2P so you can leave and come back as you wish.

    It really depends on how you game and what your general gaming motivations and goals are.  If you want to play end-game, then 1 month in an MMORPG isn't going to cut it - neither is taking breaks "whenever."  End-gamers take breaks at strategic time (during content lulls, for example), not simply "when they feel like it."  With that kind of play schedule, you will never get there.

    However, I do totally agree that it's a good idea to play other games as well.  Honestly, I think a console is a good idea for MMORPG games.  Get away from the Keyboard and mouse and go relax in bed or on the couch and play Witcher III or something.

    Playing other genres of games is a good way to avoid burning yourself out, as well.  A shooter like Overwatch, or a MOBA like LoL or HotS may not be a bad idea.  Even strategy games like SCII or card games like Hearthstone.

    I think something that many MMORPG players do, which probably contributes to burn out, is they play different MMORPG games concurrently...  After a certain amount of time, it becomes like playing the same game, anyways...  It's really good to switch things up a bit more, IMO.

    Many times you can take your guildies with you to those other games, as well.

    Most MMORPGs are specifically set up to delay total gratification until end-game, and to punish playing in limited spurts.

    Most F2P games monetize in a way that is not wholly cosmetic, and many of those involve a certain level of grinding unless you're spending RL cash in the cash shop.  Those tend to be even more punishing to people who try to play in spurts than the subscription games (which have no major incentive to do this, since they monetize through the subscription).

    Be prepared to be one shotted all the time until you get some decent gear. its time consuming. I got grunil 15 and some green 15 weapons I cant solo mobs in the desert. But got some nice friends who boost me and let me join the party in desert.

    MMOs are generally down on long term fun, trying to up the short term instead. It is a common problem today that new MMOs last a short time.

    Try Eve online or  wait for Pantheon if you don't like space MMOs.

    Lineage 2 isn't worth playing anymore. You missed that boat. it sunk around Interlude. They really made a mistake when they introduced the attribute system and revamped how resists and spell failures worked. 

    Also, they have never really done much to combat ebaying and botting, except provide you with legit mea s to ebay, which means the people with the largest credit limit get the best gear and win the most fights. 

    Gear, more often than not, trumps skill in this game. The combat system isn't one that really rewards skilled gameplay, anyways. balance is awful, as well.

    i was on the same boat as you.
    played l2 from prelude until c3 on official, then c4 until ct1 on private servers and then on and off until high five.
    i actively play poe and battlerite though i couldn't play an mmorpg for more than a month despite loving mmorpgs. nothing ever came close to what lineage 2 had to offer back in its glory days.

    that's until i started BDO on december 2016 and i'm still playing to this day.
    give a it a shot for a month and see from there. worst case scenario you spent 10 dollars for a game you didn't like.
    be careful though, BDO is quite expensive and despite what a lot of people will say, heavily pay to "win". (not in the traditional sense of p2w though. you can play without pets/inventory expansion/weight but you will hate the game if you don't fork out money.)
    it is, in my opinion, the best mmo on the market (business model aside of course) and worth a try at the very least.
    if you end up liking the game, be prepared to spend a hundred bucks minimum. if you are ok with that, you are in for a treat. if you don't want/can't spend money on it, forget about BDO.

    No, just no!   Everything you just said is the reason why MMORPG's absolutely suck these days.  Too many crappy free to play MMOs littered with game hoppers is just destroying the genre.
