For the life of me I just can't stick with any MMO for long.  I just get so bored of them so fast.  The last one I remember playing for a long time was the original Guild Wars, which I did like until I got to the point I had to grind for better armor and weapons just to continue the main content.  I played Elder Scrolls a bit too but frankly it just felt like the poor man's version of an actual Elder Scrolls game.

Well in the end I suppose it's mostly my own fault since I'm not a very social person anyway and never really became active in any guilds.

Well enough of stuff I don't like, here is something I am really enjoying these days!  With the sales going on I decided to give Nexomon: Extinction a go and I've been loving it!  I used to be a pokemon fan but got tired with how bloated the series feels these days and the old games are just too slow to enjoy anymore.  Thankfully Nexomon really has hit all the right buttons for me and I've been really enjoying it!

A good amount of monsters to collect, quite a bit of humor, a story that actually feels like something is at stake, hard boss battles you really have to prepare for, and fairly quick leveling up.  I think the biggest thing I like though is the fact the monsters don't differ in base stats and there is no breeding system you have to deal with to make that 'perfect' monster.  I never bothered to get into multiplayer battles in pokemon precisely because I knew I would never have the patience to max stat a 'perfect' team that would actually be viable in matches.

It just managed to scratch that itch I wanted that the original pokemon gave me back when I was a kid and I've been loving most of what it has to offer.  I also generally like almost all the monster designs unlike a lot of pokemon I could mention.

So Extinction is actually a sequel to the original Nexomon game, which I also got mostly just for the back story and it was really cheap.  It's also pretty good but you can definitely tell it was a mobile game first when you play it and is generally not as polished.  Also a lot more unbalanced and status effects are seriously overpowered in that game.  It has come a long way from its cash grab roots.
