It isn't news that there is an abundance of MMOs. To some people this isn't an issue; they are still playing their favorite, possibly the only one they've ever played and have no intention of switching. Some people bed-hop, working their way through dozens of the games on offer but never find a permanent home. There are others, and I fall in this category, who spend most of their time in one or two main games, but are always trying out different ones. I'm a sucker for trying out a new release or even an old game I've heard a lot about - I've worked my way through the free month of so many different titles. I would love to get around to playing them all, but it's just not possible and there are some great games, with so much to offer, that just slip through the net.
I imagine that there are many players like me, who love to play most MMOs, but somehow Everquest II has passed them by. Or maybe you have been playing a single MMO for years and have tapped it out and would like to see what else is out there. In any case it's, you might be interested to know, what sets apart one MMO from another before trying them out.
