Guild wars 2 will always be a decent side MMO and you don't need to pay a subscription.

Dungeon Fighter Online for that old school arcade style combat if you don't mind the stamina bar (last a average of 2 to 3 hour playtime but a decent 4 hours if your character is level 70+ content) but the game provided plenty of events for free stamina and stamina decrease slows down a lot at high level content.

I really dislike this argument. Leveling alt jobs or characters isn't content unless you're a completionist. If someone has no interest in ever playing casters, why would leveling casters be considered content for them? By that token, you may as well say "have you gotten all thirteen Anima relics? No? Stop complaining! You still have content!"

People want something that appeals to them. No one should expect to be entertained all the time, especially if they average 8-10 hours a day. Right now your chooses of semi-relevant content is Ultimate, Rival Wings and Rabanastre. If you're not a hardcore raider (7% of the playerbase) or interested in PvP... you have one piece of new content for the entire patch. That simply isn't good enough.

Sadly, I doubt they'll do that. Neither Gordias nor Midas ever unlocked before the next tier dropped. They only opened Creator because Stormblood was on the horizon and it resulted in a prolonged tier. Would be nice though, especially since I'd like to properly gear other jobs.
