I played EVE Online for a while and quite liked it. But the first MMORPGs I played were the old text-based MUSHes, I still play them at the moment, just not as much as I used to. :D

the IT guy at the last job I had mentioned that EVE Online was spectacular. Is it something I should look into before this comes out?

I loved EvE Online.
It's very sandbox like. It's very free form.
The learning curve is harsh. A lot of times the only way to understand something is to go into the forums and find a player guide about it.
I'd say it's worth checking out, but I'm biased.
If you have any questions about it, feel free to hit me up.

I'm weird. I have to make my spores look like real creatures.

So I made a cow, a horse, a dog, a monkey and a human looking thing.

Currently playing CoH/V. It's my first experience with an MMORPG and I love it. Spend a LOT of time in front of the computer playing, much to the dismay of my hubbie. Looking forward to this game, as well as Cryptic's other property, Champions Online. Heh, at this rate my hubbie will never see me again ;)

Currently playing non MMO games, but I have played

FFXI - decent but felt more like a chore after a while
COX - still play off and on
WOW - was just thoroughly unimpressed, didn't get into it at all
Phantasy Star - was so confused at the start, i spent a few hours then put it away and never looked back

My first MMORPG was Final Fantasy XI. I'm a big FF fan but never played multi online games before. I thought it would be worth giving it a shot. That is when my Ex and I learned about CoH so we both switched. It was a fun game but eventually we switched to WoW but I stopped playing a few years back. Now I'm waiting for STO........

I've been playing MMOs for the past 10 years.

EQ 3 years
DAoC 2 1/2 years
WoW 3 years

EQ2, AC, Herzions, DnD and LotRO for assorted ammounts of time.

I played EvE Online for about 2 years.
Absolutely loved it. It was awesome.
Very vast, very open, very free form.

Got too busy in real life though and decided to put it down for awhile.
Been thinking about picking it back up, until I tried out City of Heroes.
Prolly gonna play that for awhile until I try out all the stuff that it'll let me do.
