That picture is the biggest load of BS ever.Anoctris said:http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/7638/thisiswhywowsucksms3.png
I played for a long time. I am an anti-raider. This is because back when the best thing going was MC, dicking around for hours at a time with 40 people who had purple fever, wasn't fun. Being forced to spec to go on raids - wasn't fun. I don't play a game to listen to whingy children (or grown men/women for that matter) who've never held a job ***** over vent about wiping repeatedly.
For a long time, even during the latter stages of BC, raiding and raiders just reeked of elitism to me. And now with the achievement system, Guilds can judge someone before even speaking with them.
Yeah I know, friends have told me raids are easier now, blah blah blah.
I was in it for the fun, not for stroking my ego at a bank/mailbox with my shiny dragon mount or whatever and spitting on others.
And a game that rewards raiders more easily than pvpers is biased imo, although if you're reading this and salivating with barely controlled rage I imagine you can disagree with me 'til the end of time. Or even WoW.
There's no secret to WoW - Blizzard just did their research. They studied or employed people who understood the minutae of addiction, in all it's varied forms, and applied those lessons as best as possible without going so far as to be blatently obvious.
Firstly, Tigole left Everquest and hated it because of all the bugs.
Not only that, but he started working on WoW so he could make a MMORPG more accessible to more gamers, not to make the game harder.
If you knew ANYTHING about everquest you'd know that it was much more grindy and long then even vanilla WoW was.
So the simple fact that you know nothing about raiding just proves that you have no right to cry about how bad it is.
That's not to say Tigole isn't a hardcore raider, of course he is, probably one reason why he's working on Blizzard's new game, but to say he tried to make it harder then Everquest is just ignorant and moronic.
And the racism in that picture is just pathetic, the country of my background protected Jews at the risk of their own lives, so how dare you put a picture you little Nazi. My relatives didn't risk their lives so morons like you can post pictures like that.
Either way, WoW = PVE game, Raiders were the best in PVP in vanilla because it was PVP in a PVE game, PVP was there so you could use the tools you got in PVE.
Again, if Blizzard really wanted to suck hours out, why have they turned casual? Your argument makes ZERO sense considering the ACTUAL facts. Just piss off racist.
