This was easily <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/08/28/september-is-a-crazy-month-for-mmos/">the busiest month</a> for MMOs in recent memory and we're sure many of you at least picked up one of them to try out. We're curious to know if you're still playing a September MMO just over a month later. If so or if not, why?<br />
<br />
No MMO in the history of MMOs has experienced a perfectly smooth launch and these September titles were no exception. Did the action-packed combat of <a href="http://massively.com/category/champions-online"><em>CO</em></a> pull you in or did the lack of content push you away? Were you awed by <a href="http://massively.com/category/dungeons-and-dragons-online"><em>DDO-EU</em></a>'s polished suite of tools or annoyed by the limitations put on free accounts? Was <a href="http://massively.com/category/fallen-earth"><em>Fallen Earth</em></a>'s post-apocalyptic setting a breath of fresh air or did you choke on a mouthful of radioactive bugs? Did the beauty and smoothness of <a href="http://massively.com/category/aion"><em>Aion</em></a> make your heart beat faster or did its grind and bot infestation crush your soul? Just how impressed were you with September's crop of new MMOs?<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/11/06/the-daily-grind-are-you-still-playing-a-september-mmo/">The Daily Grind: Are you still playing a September MMO?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Fri, 06 Nov 2009 08:00:00 EST.
