Which one of those games has 10 million subscribers?
Best Quote ever, seriously. Look at the Box of WoW now please, see the Age Field? Says 12 aint it? Well..at least in the EU it does, now going from that point we know that about 80% of those people are below the big 18. Doesnt speak much for quality there. Also Blizzard cares shit about any RP on their Servers, even those meant for it, i have played there a year ago and trust me, its like that. So whatever, 10 Million Players means exactly nothing when its a stupid audience that is happy with just Items and more Items to endlessly grind for the rest of their lives, also, considering the Levelgain, play WoW, you will hit 20 in about 2-3 Days, now go to Lineage 2, try getting level 20 there and unless they changed something about it thats going to take more than one week, so its obvious why WoW is more successful, its just downright pisseasy. Which in turn brings me to my next point..
Who came up with it trying to compare every fucking MMOG/MMORPG to WoW or the like? Just cause they fall under the same category doesnt mean they are exactly the same. No, i dont want to hear the mechanics and blah, i played alot of them, before WoW came out, so there is a difference, sure in the end all have grind, all are a bit about the leveling and shit but seriously, its the box it comes in, whats around it, in WoW, its not much, Warcraft Lore had enough Depth, did they use it? Not really. Lineage 2 has less Lore to hold onto but does a little better job there, so does AoC, why not, if you have to grind do it in a nice fashion? With a interesting story attached to it instead of "Go there and Kill that". They arent all just made for level XX and itemset A etc, nope, some were made for roleplay, you know..where you can actually play a character in that world, get immersed in it and dont just feel your balls swell cause you took down Uberboss Y and got Item Z..
Otherwise the Review was straight to the point, AoC needs work, but if they can pull that off it might actually work quite well and IMO its already better than WoW and thats not cause of naked Boobs, if i want that i ask my Wife, there i can even touch them
