I played WoW with a good friend of mine from the day it launched for about a year. Then I went cold turkey, right about when people started doing Molten Core. My buddy kept playing (mainly because his wife was into the game whereas mine wasn't) but just quit himself a couple months ago.
I have sworn off MMOs at least for the forseable future. One reason is none of them have done it better than WoW. A second is the time sink and with a wife who doesn't play games at all and a baby on the way there just isn't time for me anymore. But I still have great memories of my fave MMOs, like DAOC, PlanetSide and WoW. I played some of the beta of Hellgate London - meh. Nothing really special, just a MMO version of Diablo 2. While you can play for free (as in $50 for the game but no monthly fee) most of the good content you can only get by paying a monthly fee. Tabula Rasa looked interesting but they have had a rough launch and really once the coolness of the magic/technology mix wears off it really is the same old thing. I personally am saving up my long gaming nights for Spore when it finally does ship. Supposedly it will have a MMO-sort of thing where you can upload your creatures to the universe and see how they interact and survive against other people's creatures. Should be really cool.
