Hi guys, I have been bored out of my mind lately. I need a new game to play to fill my free time. We'll start with a list of games i've already played.

-World of Warcraft
-Runescape
-Diablo2
-Diablo3
-League of legends
-Heroes of newerth
-Dota2
-Smite
-Path of exile
-Starcraft 2
-Team fortress 2
-Minecraft/Terraria
-Torchlight
-EVE online

I've played much, much more but those would be the better known games.

I know there are probably a lot of gems out there that I have missed. Altough, let me give you a brief description of what i'm looking in a game.

-No cash shop! (This is the number one priority, I am ready to pay for a game and pay a subscription fee.)
-Needs a solid PVP system.
-Needs a great economy, where players are allowed to trade easily. (Player driven economy)
-Preferably some 'off-skills' to train, such as crafting, potion making (You get the idea).

As far as I can think, those are my main favourite points in a game.

I am, of course, ready to dish some fg if I get really into games you suggest me :)

Hey man, im only posting this because I can relate to you, and all the games u have played are the same as my list currently.
honestly right now waiting for Wow expansion, guild wars 2, but a game that has taken me, my friends and others by storm is arma 2 mod: dayz.

-cash shop game as mod is in alpha

-solid pvp system... players are friends or foe, and always have the best loot
-economy is starting new and totally community driven
-entire game i would say is "offskills"

-hardcore mode... perma death....dont get attached to loot, more u play better u get and learn how to conserve....

all for $25.00 and u get Arma , which i havent played yet, but seems like a pretty fun game

Thank you for your input, lately I bought a lot of Arma II copies for different JSP members, I didn't intend to purchase it for myself until now. Altough, Steam summer sale should be beginning in the next few days (rumored thursday, the usual summer sale time), and I wonder if i'm better off waiting for a few days to see if the game goes on sale. The concept definitly is interesting, I'm quite fond of it. My current 'problems' with it are the hackers (altough there doesn't seem to be a lot of them) and the fact that if you play alone, you're going to have a very rough time.

In the end, I know i'll be purchasing this game, sooner or later. Just trying to decide if I want to wait to see steam sales or just get into it now.

Edit : I wouldn't want to smash myself in the head buying the game for 30bucks now and seeing it 15-20$ during the sale haha. ALTOUGH! I've done my researches. For anyone interested in Arma II : CO for the Day Z mod, look on the original game makers website, they have a 25% sale right now, you can get Arma II : CO for 25$ instead of 30$ on steam. I might actually purchase that instead. Oh and you can activate the game on steam if you buy it this way, just thought you guys would like to know.

Steam summer sales can get a little crazy. I do have a bit of money to spare so I might just get it for $24.99 on their website. I'll probably purchase it tonight and download overnight. I'd be happy to add you, PM me your steam profile if you'd like :).

Edit : That said, I am still looking for a serious game to spend a lot of my free time on, don't hesitate to propose guys.

I've thought about The Secret World, seen videos of it, I like the idea behind the skill system. Altough the fights does not look all that amazing. Maybe it will be worth a try I'll see in the near future but with GW2 coming out soon I am not sure.

Still looking for a game peeps, thank you for the suggestions so far.
