so I downloaded the free trial of this, and man...talk about all my hopes for it being totally dashed...I've been wanting to play this since it was announced, and even more since everyone talks about how awesome it is, but it's not that good...I preffer city of heroes/villains...

It stinks at low level. It gets fun at about 30-40 depending on your class. Few months after I got 60 I quit though, nothing left to do.
 
The art design is too cartoony and colorful. It looks like scenes from Walt Disney's Alice In Wonderland.
Won't be playing it even for free.
My friend did and said it was utter crap and that it's enormous success was more proof that the majority of the population is stupid.

People held a WoW FUNERAL, A FUNERAL, for a dead player.

Further confirmation of your friend's statement.

Yes it's sad for the funeral people, but the video was hilarious.

I have it saved under my favorites :up:.
 
I play WoW...I've played nearly every other MMO out there. WoW's the best IMO.

People that don't like WoW are people that don't like any MMO. Period. EIther that, or they didn't give it enough time. The game sucks until around 20 when you start doing instances and such.
 
Wow is fun as long as you have friends in real life to play with. That being said, I've lost all interest in it. I think I'm almost level 39. Going to instances every day is boring as anything "Oh but we have to run this instance all the time they drop X item"

Shut the hell up pathetic WOW addict. I want a game that's fun to play, and the higher the level you are in that game the more it becomes a boring chore.
 
so for the game to be any good, I have to play it with it sucking for a month? uh, no thanks...and I actually really like the cartoony design, it's just like Warcraft 3, my favorite RTS of all time :o

I think you have hit the nail on the head there. I would go further and say that if you don't like RPGs (there are plenty of us who despise FF, KOTOR, Neverwinter etc) then stay away from MMORPGs. Even action-y ones like COH.

What I don't understand is why are there no MMO action games? Think an MMO Halo or an MMO GTA!

THEY ARE COMING. 'HUXLEY' (PC/360) IS AN MMORPG FPS.
 
Also Planetside (MMOFPS), if it's still around. Came out 3 years ago.

WoW, you couldn't be more wrong. My friend who played it, his life has pretty much been destroyed by his MMORPG addiction. Asheron's Call was his life for years, he even payed rent and bills just by selling items and some bad-ass characters. Then Everquest was his life. Then a stint with Lineage and Anarchy Online. Then we blasted through Everquest 2 together till we got bored and now, I swear, it's as if any day his body will be sucked into the monitor because he has abandoned everything he once held dear just to live inside Shadowbane.
And sorry, if you can't have any fun in a game until level 20? That's ******ed.

Also it's a matter of aesthetics. Some people like that Disney looking, colorful theme, but it looks like poo to me.
 
wow is the best MMO period. 6 million subcribers says alot. Ive only played wow, FF11, and city of heroes, and wow is the best out of all 3. Hands down. Im level 54 right now and still addicted!!! Love it!!!!
 
Lol, how can you say it's "the best.period." when there are like 60 of 'em out there and you've only played 3 of 'em?
But, if you love it, cool.
I'm jealous 'cause I used to love Asheron's Call and Everquest so much I'd start to buzz when I'd log on.
Now I couldn't be bothered to do the same old tired, "start out weak, kill some rats, take this box of blooby berries to Mayor Winkleback, upgrade your armor, craft a chair, get in a group, get uber-items, wait till they raise the level cap" - thing ever again.
 
Everyone needs to shut up, because none of you know anything. There is only one word that one needs to define the ultimate MMO.

EverQuest.
 
does anyone play ragnarok online? i honestly think its better than world of warcraft. if you are into oldschool looking 2-d games then its for you. multiple characters,diverse builds,even babies. look it up joker, you may like it.
 
you know I dont understan how Ever Quest is the best online game when I actually saved up all my lunch money for that ***** and subcribed for 6 months and played it, and the next 2 hours i got my money back because the ***** suck ass. if u told me that in my face that Ever Quest was the best game, I would of slaped ur ass to the ground and pissed on your face you damn *****less noob!!

Out of 3 mmo's It is the best. I know alot of people who play other MMO's and switched because WoW is much much better. I know people who play phantasy star, everquest, Guild wars, FF11, runescape, night, star wars, city of heroes/villains. Cant think of any more. Guess what, they all play wow now. Its a great game. A little repetetive, but a great game.

Sorry guy, but you started being wrong as soon as you got to "understan."

EverQuest is not only better than any game you've played, but you as well.
