Hey guys should i go ahead and grab MOP?

Hey, after a hectic month of school, i'm not sure if I should return to WoW. I have GW2 on my desk as well and don't know if I should play that either. My friend has told me that WoW has lost its core value and has become more of a cash cow. GW2 on the other hand is getting close to becoming a p2w game (quoting my friend). Should I just wait for Titan or Elder Scrolls Online instead? What do you think I should do?

I also LOVE LOVE LOVE star wars. It saddens me to see TOR fail miserably like that.

that all depends do you enjoy the idea of ruining your memories of WoW? if so then by all means go right ahead. if you dont enjoy the idea of playing the same game youve been playing for lord knows how long except less group focused than ever before for non raid events with broken arena's and even less frequently played BG's and a 2 dollar story. im going to say no.. dont get it. wait for WoW's final expansion and then jsut get both as your basically tossing your money into a furnace.

^ionus you're just blindly hating the game now.

It's always a good time to start playing WoW again. It's an everlasting game and each new expansion sets it's own tone which is why it always feels fresh.

its the same game across every expansion. the best they can do is sugarcoat the same dish they fed you last time and change the table your eating it on. and now that the arena's are filled with exploiters and the games raids have had significant boss nerfs the challenge isnt their a whole lot anymore.

the level cap is only 5 levels higher than cataclysm and while the new class is a nice addition the panda's themselves could be done without.

MoP feel like a very phoned in effort by blizz and eevry since starcraft II the quality of their products has been going down hill.

or would u like to argue now that MoP isnt the worst scoring wow xpac on the review bed or that diablo III hasnt been a critical faliure, or that HoTS is actually a huge rip off as chinese owners of WoL are getting it for free while your paying 60 bucks up front like a chump..??? hmmm???

To be honest MoP has lost it's appeal very fast, of course that's just me saying what has happened to me. Guild Wars 2 was pretty fun but I haven't played it since Sept.

If I had to choose between the two, GW2 would be my choice.

If you like WoW then theres no reason not to.

You should stop judging things you never played in your life.

The core gameplay works perfectly and always has. Tonal shifts as well as new features, factions and professions always revitalize the game.

Arena broken ? Exploiters as in Arena points and honor farmers ?

Um... no ?

And it has always been a skill-heavy PVP game.

raids have had significant boss nerfs

Raids and raid encounters in MoP are the some of the best since TBC. And they haven't been nerfed.

Or maybe you're too pro ? Show me your Heroic achis.

the level cap is only 5 levels

ionusX

Enough, leveling 10 more levels is a chore.

MoP feel like a very phoned in effort by blizz

ionusX

No it doesn't.

The rest is irrelevant, what does HotS have to do with WoW again ? We're talking about MoP here, not Blizzard in general.

I'm not saying GW 2 is bad because it certainly isn't, far from it. My friend plays it and from what little I have seen of him playing it, it looks like a great, explorative game.What I am saying though is you should stop making facts out of thin air.

Seriously did WoW kill your first born or something, the mindless hatred for a video game from you is quite amusing and concering.. I havn't played it but I have basically been hearing from everyone that its the best expansion since Burning Crusades and the only real complaint I have heard is too many dailies..

Depending on when you last played the game, the game has changed a lot. Better expansion then Catacyclsm, the world feels more alive. Theres stuff to do in the world.

No don't do it waste off your time the pvp well for some strange reason this game is called World of Botcraft and the pve is World of Easycraft

Honestly it's up to you the player what you choose. All I can give is my opinion, WoW can be really great game if get in a good guild and make some good friends.

If you try to play WoW solo well then its pretty luck based on what kind of people you will meet up with. I've been playing since start WoTLK and mop is ok.

But for me I found I enjoy single player rpgs much more fun over treadmill/theme parkmmorpgs.

Also I don't really feel the 15$ a month is worth to me.

Depends on how much you like what has changed about WoW.

MoP's focus is less on end game content and more on goofing around. You get your own farm to grow crops with, there are many vanity items given as quest rewards and the new Pandaren race is a continuing source of comic relief. If you have a good sense of humour, you'll probably enjoy it.

Otherwise, it still has the dungeons and raid groups you would expect to find in WoW so in a way it's still not that different from the rest of the game.

alright then the pve is Challenging <_< but still pvp is CRAP with all the bots around these days

If you like WoW, do by all means get MOP. It is the second best expansion only behind TBC.

[QUOTE="Starshine_M2A2"][QUOTE="-Unreal-"]Explain or elaborate on why you think there's less focus on end game content than before and why the Pandaren are a comical race.
