Been playing pretty much sense day one, took a few breaks, longest when daughter was born... but any ways getting to that point again, sold my alts for isk so i can dumb it down to one account for the time being.
What games you play when you get bored of eve? I enjoy MMO's except one thing, which happens to be major in most MMO's... i hate XP And grinding, it makes them no fun for me... any suggestions? |

An MMO without XP OR grinding? Surely you jest!

World of Tanks isnt bad. Or Minecraft.
I personally keep a WoW account updated that I occasionally activate when I want a little relaxation away from EVE.

I was thinking about giving Runescape a second try. Had fun with it, but never subbed. ____________________________________________ Check out my proposal to change the wallet! |

I like AI Wars for some single player epic pew pew thats not eve based. Best rts on the market atm if you like your rts to require forethought and adaptive thinking. Otherwise just go play whatever cnc or starcraft clone you like for mindless rts action. Honorable mention goes to master of orion 2 and master of magic. Both of which are still just as fun and challenging today as when they were first launched as long as you can overlook the basic graphics. Past those games there are literally hundreds of other games that might fill your nights with engaging diversion depending on your personal gaming preferrences.

Browser-based free-to-play stuff. CastleQuest2 (Linkage), Illyriad Linkage or CarnageBlender Linkage, that's what I still play to some degree I used to play some of the Ironhelmet (Linkage) games like Neptune's Pride or Blight of the Immortals, but I grew tired of those eventually (the fact "nagware" for the for-pay options was a tad bit grating on my nerves didn't help... no idea why, it should have been easily ignorable). _

RL is pretty good, I have lvl 4 in gym training and currently grinding missions at work so I can get better standings with the company.
You should try it, thats where true PvP is ;)

Another +1 to MoO2, that game is absolutely amazing. Graphics aren't great but still hold up pretty well for the purposes of the game. It can be a huge time suck, though (one... more.... turn... ).
I like to play a bit of Minecraft on the side, a little bit of Diablo 2, which I only recently played for the first time, and a little bit of an old space game called EV Nova. That last one is starting to show its age, but it's so easily modifiable that I can just change it up whenever I get bored with it.
I used to play a bit of SC2 as well, but Blizzard lolbalance . Might have to go reinstall my old copy of SC1, that was a fun game. |

Edited by: Sidus Isaacs on 27/02/2011 21:18:51 Almost no other MMO worth looking at. All just basically lame WOW clones (including that lame instanced **** tank game).
So I rather play some good games once in a while, like AI War, Civ4 (Cvi5 was ****) or a round of l4d2 with some friends. Heck, even a pen and paper D&D game beats most of this **** thats out today. Or even booting up my NES/PS1/PS2 form some good stuff.
But I got no need to be entertained all the time by games. I often read books or watch some documentaries, read up on my engineering field, or even other fields of interest. Heck even visiting friends.
Key to not get bored in EVE is to realize its just a game, and actually do other things most of the time.

As an alternate experience, and the culprit for me having long leaves of absence from EVE I blame LOTRO
With the change to F2P and many tweaks in the game lately (and a nice update coming soon) It's simply the best option for me.
on Single player sides I must say, games with endless replayability or open worlds
Silent Hunter III Freelancer X3:Terran Conflict
Also a nice option and special mention to MAGICKA ... it's fun and simple, has multiplayer too :D

I'd probably play a lot more Sins of Solar Empire if not for my infernal hate for how bloated Impulse has become.

i've been playing uncharted waters online lately. its a F2P MMO with boats, (imagine eve circa 1500 with sailing ships). the market is crap but the trading/transport aspect is pretty entertaining (ofc i do this in eve as well). Also, there's some opportunity for PVP once you get into the game a bit. Alot of the game is historically and geographically accurate, and it provides a nice break from eve for a history buff like me.

currently, Fallout: New Vegas, have it on the PC so I constantly download mods for it and basically remakes it a little bit so it's fresh. . . Here, sanity... niiiice sanity, come to daddy... okay, that's a good sanity... *THWONK!* GOT the bastard. Everyone has a right to be stupid, just some people abuse the privilege. |
