I played WoW for exactly one month, back when... I think Wrath of the Lich King or something? When that was new, and they'd just revamped all the starter areas. I got my character all the way up to level 60, bought the next expansion, then let my subscription lapse for a week. And... during that one week, it dawned on me just how much free time I had. Free time that, when WoW was available, would have by default been playing WoW.

I stopped immediately, and haven't looked back. I really enjoy single player games, but something about WoW's core loop just... pulled me in. I couldn't do it in moderation.

I still play a single player game here and there. I'm so far behind in games that the free ones that come out on PSPlus are typically new to me. I need to be able to play for 30 minutes and then move on if needed be. Multiplayer/MMOs just do not work that way. And, if people you know play then it becomes this loop of playing together to get better and never really stopping.
