I don't want to look like a fool for suggesting our mud because you might have already tried it and discounted it as not being for you. But in general terms I think any mud is going to have repetitive actions purely because it is impossible to provide unlimited variety, even in real life we have to engage in mundane repetitive actions.

You can cook a pancake and use different ingredients and label it as something different each time, but it's still the same actions, adding ingredients, mixing, pouring them into a pan and frying. An area used for hunting might have 3 or 4 different creatures in it, each presents different challenges in order to slay, there might be a few quests, and you would possibly have a selection of skills to utilize while killing them, but it's still repetitive hunting once you have been through that area a few times

It might help if you could describe in more detail some of the things you found in the muds that you tried which you didn't like and was there anything that you did? Also I am curious, how long did you try the other muds out for? I'm guilty of logging into a new mud, giving it 30 minutes and leaving again because it really has not caught my atention, but I realise that many muds take more time to sink into, specially ones where there is quite a lot involved in character development.
