When it comes to EQ, Verant started a trend that Sony and others have continued. That is, devising gameplay that exponentially requires more and more time the deeper you delve into it. I can't go there anymore.
But I am keeping a hopeful eye with TES Online and now EQ Next. I need to be able stop playing on a dime, that is my first and most important priority. If either of these games allow this without unwinding perhaps hours or days of effort or pissing off other players who have no recourse if you up and leave, I'll give them a try. Until then, I'm sticking with single player games that let me save and stop on a moments notice.
