I've always known better than to get into MMOs in the first place. I have a somewhat compulsive personality, but I also know that if I start, it means days of wasted time that I could be doing something else while being always unsatisfied and wanting more.

I would be happier with MMORPGs if they were better on the RPG part - that is, genuinely immersing you in an experience rather than trapping you in a rat-race for better stats, numbers and ranks. This is why I generally prefer offline sims as my poison - they may seem aimless compared to most of the structured MMOs, but if the game goes well, I walk away with the feeling of having "been there", so to speak. I get very little satisfaction from competition, but I'll be stubborn if I get into it. So, better to just spend my time having cool experiences in games instead.
