Spec me an MMO that's not a grind-fest.
Thanks.
most if not all mmos are a grind fest in one way or other
Good Luck
Every MMO is a grindfest, I've been playing Darkfall Online for a year now and you dont have to grind in that unless you want to be competetive in PvP (serious grind if you start now).
but for PvE with guilds or just having fun you can take it casually.
I'd be surprised if you found an MMO without a grind.
actually, WAR was pretty good because I did PvP to level up so it took my mind of it.
edit - you're also playing it wrong if you think you need to get the the highest level (if their are levels) fast, find a good solid gaming community, have a laugh and take your time (force yourself if you have to).

MMOs have to be a grind, because professional developers & content creators are a finite resource.
The only way MMOs will stop being a grind, is if one comes along which allows the players themselves to expand the world, creating their own content. And that is a path fraught with its own problems.

This.
One is heavily PvP orientated and has little real lore or community. Fairly run of the mill graphics and little in the way of PvE.
The other is heavily PvE orientated, with oodles of lore (as you would expect given the theme), strong mature-minded community (both RP and non-RP). Graphics which at times can be stunning and little in the way of PvP.
Sounds like LOTRO is perfect then.
What are the various Asian MMOs like?
If you don't like a grind, don't even bother with Asian mmo's. they're grind orientated.

IMO they are generally utter turd. Certainly not the sort of thing you should be considering if you dont like grinds, as usually eastern MMOs are very focused on the grind element.
I personally have had it with MMOs now i play wow atm i totally quit the PVE side just doing arena but in 3 Weeks i have full Gear inc shoulders tier 2 weapon so i'll just idle till title n mounts thru n sell up.
I'd rather play FPS n single players thease days i hate relying on others in games.
2 words *SOUL SUCKING*

Hehe, depends who the "others" are that you have to rely on I suppose.
Online gaming with the wrong people = yuck
Online gaming with the right people = yum

Suggest trying a trial of LotRO before parting with money.
I can't remember which server I was on, but it was devoid of players during my leveling up. And the content was the same old tired chores as every other MMO, but less rewarding going through it solo compared the other franchises.
Wait, which one's which? I've avoidied MMOs like herpes for a long time, but heavy PvE focus with oodles of lore sounds right up my back alley which, incidentally, is how herpes finally got me, too
I would go further and say take a trial of any MMO before parting with money. (and the server you want for LOTRO is Laurelin, big community, highly helpful players, always people re-rolling)
