What other game are you guys playing? I really like RPGs, although I can take or leave the MMO part --- I'm WOW'ed-out from years of 4-hour guild runs (it took less time to become bored with RIFT). I'll probably continue to run ACT3 daily, and maybe my enthusiasm for the game will return but right now it's become a bit ho-hum.
Try Simcity, shit's hugely addictive and the plus side it's a pretty nice game overall!
EDIT: Check out steam, they're having some really awesome sales on at the moment too.

The new Hitman game is sick and fun, but maybe short. Also Planetside 2 came out if you like FP shotters on a massive world.If you want more of a RPG/MMO game then try DRagonnest, its a action based MMO. There are many games out to try. Kinda hard to suggest games on what little info you gave us.
Thanks for the feedback, guys. I like the dungeon-and-dragon format of games like WOW and RIFT and even, SKYRIM --- some of the lesser ones like NeverWinterNights and Oblivion are OK, but I didn't like the mechanics. I tried Mass Effect as a new genre but never warmed to it. I don't think anything can match WOW for the open environment and shear breadth of the world, and I'd be playing it today if it didn't have the MMO requirement of 4-6 hour commitments of guild runs to feel you were achieving anything more than the mediocre gear you could get going strictly solo. D3 really fixed that part about gear, but I was really stunned when I finished the initial normal four acts and realized that was the extent of the content. The lure of gear is great, but the perversity of the legendary and set drops is sick. I completely agree with the concept that legendary drops should be a very rare occasion of extremely low frequency, but when they do drop, they should be somewhat valuable. The AH is filled with legendaries and set pieces that are priced just barely above their salvage costs --- something is wrong with that. I myself, since I turned level 60, have never worn anything that's dropped.
Yeah I struggle with D3 when its comes to farming either for gear,xp or gold. Its just boring to run the same route over and over. As far as games to try..maybe Avion...( I may have spelled it wrong but its like WoW and free to play.) As far as any other MMOS they are all the same in my book...at least the WoW like ones are. You could try more of a action MMO like Terra or RaiderZ.
If u ever tried it, try Star wars knignts of the old republic, Mmo online, it's f2p till the part u wont raid. story till level 50 is really awesome (as every game from Bioware)
Torchlight 2 and Guildwars 2 is slowly growing on me. I didnt like em in the beginning, but they are not bad games, just a different style to get used to, atleat for me.
SC2 is also for those that want something difficult to practice. Tons of streams from tournaments to inspire you, which I like to watch when farming d3 ^^.
Path of Exile. Action-RPG with just an absolutely insane amount of customization and build variety. It's F2P and in essentially open beta - myself and a few friends all received access within hours of requesting it on their main page. If you don't get it you can donate $10 to the small company and get access and a "Supporter" title.
The game is seriously cool. Feels like Diablo should have felt. Almost a mix between ARPG and MMO.
I ended up buying the 100$ founder package for Firefall after seeing someone offering beta key for it, MMO Shooter, looks promising! and fun, just finished my paragon this morning , guess ill have to play it a bit now =D
You really should give Diablo 3 Hardcore a chance before you quit completely. I know hardcore is only for a certain type of gamer, and I never thought I'd fall into that category, but you should give it a try to see if you like it. What I've found playing hardcore is that it really makes you pay attention to all the nuances of Diablo. You are forced to employ tactics and skill choices to survive. The RMAH is much more barren, and cheap as well, but since you likely will have no gold, you won't be tempted to buy anything from it. It's easy to just live off the drops you get... and most likely you'll die before you hit 60, so you won't have to worry about min/max BS and uber gearing. The main question is, can you have enough fun just PLAYING without thinking of every level and piece of gear as some investment as most softcore players do. It's actually quite entertaining and has revived my interest in the game by 10 times.
Until the pvp patch ill be playin swtor (star wars: the old republic)
not a fan of the monthly fee anymore (wow)
I am playing SWTOR based on an earlier suggestion (in fact, I explored almost every suggestion). Don't you get a lot more out of SWTOR by buying the subscription rather than F2P?
