Currently 0. Haven't played any MMO really steady in many years. I figure I'll just wait until one of the newer releases before I start going steady again.

Right no I'm subscribed to WoW, Lotro (lifetime) and Eve Online. But I'm usually only playing one game.

Used to be a time when I had to pick one. Being old means never having to choose, so its going to be 2 for a while: Aion and Champions.

I try to only play one at a time but there are so many good ones coming out I'm beta testing a couple. I think it will end up being Champions Online and WoW though.

Barely time enough for one.

1. It's hard for me to invest in more than one at a time.

At this time my active accounts are GuildWars, WoW, and Final Fantasy XI.. but time-wise I can only really dedicate to one MMO seriously. Right now that one is GuildWars.

Right now I'm doing a trial of Asheron's Call, but plan to buy it in a couple days. Once you get over the graphics the game is unique and absolutely massive. Modern games cannot touch it.

I'm a huge Myst fan, and the piles of very well written lore coupled with no quest journal, the clue finding is right up my alley. Clearly not everyones cup of tea though.

I am currently subscribed to two. WoW which I am currently burned out on and may as well quit, and Champions Online which I have a lifetime subscription to. I kind of want to try Fallen Earth but we will see.

I've done two at once a few times, but typically one at a time. It's to hard to put that much time into two MMOs.

I play about 7-10.

I never understood how a player can play only one, over and over night after night after night, usually doing the same thing over and over.

I don't listen to the same band over and over, so why play with the same people in the same setting so much? Call me crazy.

Good lord. How do you find the time to play 7-10? I mean, I feel like I play WoW a lot, but I work full time at a desk job, come home and eat and visit with the fam, hit the gym a few nights, then raid from 8-11 2-3 nights a week. Where do you find the time?

In the past I have subscribed to as many as three at a time. I'm burned on everything out there so I am playing oblivion with some nice addons and enjoying it very much. I'm waiting for APB and SWTOR.

Usually no more than two paid subscriptions. And when I find myself not logging into the one of them, or logging in and logging right back out, I usually cancel. Betas and demos dont count but they often make me re-evaluate one I am playing.

Right now is WAR and Champions Online.

I generally play one at a time. I am currently waiting for my next thing to catch my eye.

Usually 2, a main game and an alternate. My main MMO has been LotRO for a while and the alternate has gone from WoW to EQ2 to GW to DDO with a couple trials (WAR, AoC) and the odd beta.

Really, it ends up being LotRO and whatever catches my eye that month. :)

I currently play about 3 at a time. How I do it depends on the game. I play WAR for a quick fix of pvp and just plain fun with tons of classes.

I play FFXI for a more group, complex game with great story and immersion.

I now play Champions online for another type of pve quick fix with superheroes!

At some point, I'll get tired of one and unsub for awhile, sub to something else, especially when Expansions come out, like LOTRO, I'll play that next expac, same with WoW. Once the expac is old, I usually unsub and go back to another or try a new one. I'm an mmorpg junky and the fact that these games change over time and add new content keeps me coming back for more, just at different times.

I can't get enough of the genre, so I'm all over the place these days. It's hard for me to resist a new MMO beta when it's available.

After raiding regularly in EQ for seven years, I'm having a lot of fun just casually playing a few different MMOs at a time.

I'm pretty excited for the relaunch of DDO and the two new classes in RoM this fall.
