What do you mean? Why don't I play it? It's simple, really.
I'm old. The facility to learn new things simply diminishes with time. The properties and counters to a billion moves just doesn't come easy any more. Sure, when it was new with 20 or so characters with clearly defined roles it wasn't that much of a problem. Rock-Paper-Scissors.
Now that they've introduced what seems like four characters a month with new properties and skills (some don't even use mana, for fuck's sake)...I can't keep up. That's probably not entirely true, but I don't want to expend the effort to keep up with that much bullshit. It's now rock-paper-scisscors-plant-rocket-spock-lizard-fire-rubber-turkey-spring-laser. I do enjoy getting outside and smelling the roses (and getting laid).
Simply put, it's too much of a timesink for very little reward. I don't have the twitchy reflexes required. Probably why I don't like FPS games.
That and I'm having too much fun with DCUO.
