Everyone knows WoW's only good because it's easy. And it's making new MMO's ****

What happened to MMO's after WoW? They all look just like it (even though WoW stole every element from different games) and they are waaay too easy and lame IMO. WoW presents no challenge and everyone I know that plays it has like 4 lvl 60-70's. What we need is a HARD MMO, made for Gamers who like a little challenge. I mean, if your gonna spend that much damn time playing a worthless game... Do something you can actually brag about. (I do not personally play MMO's anymore, after WOW,LoTRO,Runescape(better than both at one time IMO), and FFXI.) I'm only excited for Huxley right now in the MMO world, and Age of Conan is pretty cool I guess. At least they added some depth to the combat system so you have to SORTA pay attn.

I mean EQ was tough as nails, we need something new

"At least they added some depth to the combat system so you have to SORTA pay attn."

i still think WoW (i dont play no mo) has some interestesing battle mechanics. im playing a demonologist in AOC and its alot simpler then WoW. Ice mages in wow are not easy(imo) and there are many buffs, debuffs, and tallents that seemed alot more complecated then AoC. humf maby i should try a melee character

Yeah the extreme difficulty is what made EQ fun imo. You died in like 3 seconds from just normal leveling creatures if you got aggro from the tank. Required precise and skillful management. In comparison WoW is a cake walk that babys you through it.

EQ needed an easier learning curve but was definitely the superior game overall. Truthfully I don't even know how the hell I got into EQ with how easy and dumbed down we've come to expect everything to be.

WOW isnt easier then other MMO's, its more accessable. Because of this, you get more players, many of whom dont have the mentality of more veteren MMO players.

WOW isnt a bad game because it attracted a new audience. It remains possibly the best overall game on the market today. I dont play it anymore, frankly i just got bored to tears. I recognize that its amazing at what it does though.
