[QUOTE="Im_single"]Either way you're just wasting your time, it's up to whoever is playing to decide which is a better waste of their time :wink: Farkeman

True words, indeed! ;)

Were just my opinions on WoW.

ye , so you better waste your time on the greatest mmo - WOW :) (and thats not my opinion , thats a FACT , dont believe me google it)

Its the most popular MMO because its so easy and casual. Any bad player can feel like a champ in WoW nowadays, and I suppose thats what appeals to losers. Being able to succeed for once.

WoW is great. 14 million subscribers at some point doesnt lie.

Ive played and tried everything...Until Stars wars comes out, this is the MMO of choice for most.

Thats completely not true. WoW is so popular because it fits into the lives of casual AND hardcore gamers all around. If you SUCK, you will be booted from raids...Ive seen it and done it (being a GM for a while). Can you be good in PVP and "suck" at the game? NOPE. Can you have DECENT gear and suck at the game? yes...all of the heroic gear which is CRAP nowadays anyone can get. But when you start raiding after ToC. If you "suck" you cannot have Kingslayer...and even if you do, you are probably in the less than 5% of the population.

I say give it a go. I used to play it off and on and it can be fun, but it can also be really boring. Don't listen to people who say it will steal your soul; If you have any sort of self-control you won't let it absorb your life (how the hell does this happen people?).

I guess we have different standards. In my opinion, you "suck" if you are not solid in every aspect of the game. That includes PvE and PvP - Raiding, Arena, and all around knowledge of your class. You can be a PVE champ nowadays if you just know a rotation and learn a simple scripted fight, not to mention rotations are being dumbed down to make PvE even more skill-less for many classes (ex. mutilate rogue) When I raided competitively in WOTLK for a US top 10 guild, I encountered countless players who shared in my guilds success and yet lacked knowledge that once upon a time was fundamental to being a solid player, and now makes NO difference. Why? Because Blizzard keeps lowering the bar. They want to make a lot of money, so they cater their game to casuals who want to see as much content as hardcore players do. This never used to be the case, but Its completely understandable from a business viewpoint. This is why I only deal with Arena now, and even that has been going downhill in this expansion. It still requires a lot more skill in most cases to achieve a Gladiator title than it is to get a Kingslayer one, and I hope it remains that way, but if Blizzard keeps following their current direction, we may see Gladiator for the masses as we now see Kingslayer. A title that should indicate top notch skill, but really doesn't.

WoW has become a rather poor endgame product when Activision took over the reigns last year. This was around the time they announced a controversial emblem change and released a rather poor Argent Tournament tiered raid. Nowadays, a new level 80 runs heroics over and over again and he will be ready for icecrown citadel. Geared 80's just run the frost daily/random bg/raid/facebook chat/ afk with (easy drake achievement here).


If you would've asked me this question last year when Ulduar was the epic tier, then I would say you should defintiely play it. Now, the game gets mind-numblingly boring after 2-3 weeks at being 80. If Wow keeps this emblem and raid structure for Cataclysm, then there is no hope for reviving that epic feeling in this game anymore.

You should get it. I liked it when i played and i will soon be getting a two month play card for the game. It is fun exploring and finding loot and buying and selling stuff.

more raging and attempted belittlement. i swear that is all i see you do on these forums projectpat187. i also like how you called me a "she" as if that is supposed to be some sort of insult. i had no idea being a girl was a BAD thing.... im sure the many... MANY females on this forum would disagree. rofl. and wow, did seriously just try to call me a little kid? as if claiming someone is a child when they clearly are not makes you somehow... "more mature"? i do believe this is the perfect opportunity to use the classic phrase "grow up". and plus, if i recall correctly from your past posts on this forum... you ACTUALLY ARE a child, or underaged atleast.... i honestly consider teenagers children. so i guess you wouldnt know any better either?

I am thinking about it is it worth it?? I LOVE DRAGON AGE so will I like this?

soapman72

I tried it for a month and I thought two things:

1. This isn't all that it's cracked up to be, but it's still fun.

2. Do I really want to spend $180 a year on this?

I decided that I didn't, and I also wanted to play a variety of video games, and not just one. So I didn't renew my subscription, and frankly I don't care about WOW anymore. I tried it, and it was okay.
