Hi first of all I would like to tell that I am not new to playing mmorpg-s neither I am at playing games generaly. Second I would like to tell that I am honestly sick of people who find that posting something against some game is amusing. It is not, further more it is wery offensive to people creating the game. Have any of you wondered how many trouble dev team has before they finis their title? Or how many dev team is working to create something that you and I will play? A loot. Now I am not in game industry bussiness but have talked with people that are and I strongly believe that creating game title, spec mmorpg title is hard work whick does not get too much paid. If you are so talented at creating something new and good which is better than most thing out today then why don't you gather your friend and do it? I respect every game that comes out but I will not play everyone. So please before throwing rocks at dev team try to put yourself in their shoes and think just for sec how would you feel if someone is s******g on your work!
Now, games generaly have not changed at all! from pac-man and space invaders to todays hits! NON AT ALL!!! Games are and will always be - GAMES!
I am reading: some guys have sad that wow is bad, some say it is good, smoe say that EVE is best, some say that EVE is wors, some say that Stormreach is stupid, some say it is genius. And point is that thera are no:
1 Bad games
2 Good games
there are only games that YOU like or DO NOT LIKE and that is whole thing! Some people do not like FPS, good they do not play them, some do not like RTS, fine they do not play them, but what about you? Do you like mmorpg? If you reading this then probably yes but when did you ask yourself what is mmorpg anyway. Now just for example i will compare these 4 games: WOW, GW, EVE and REACH.
Now in guild wars we have story driven experience, nice classes, lot of material to play and that's it.
In world of warcraft we have whole world to explore, high level instances, high level items.
In eve on line we have space and true sci fi feeling, good economy and wonderful amtosphere
In Stormreach we have true feeling of dungeons and dranong tabletop game
Now all of those games are different in some way and they are all mmorpgs! In some way we cann't compare them becouse they are different and their approach to player is unique, but in other way they are mmorpg games so we must comper then right? WRONG! There is not better or worse game there is only game that you will play or you will not play. What is difference in game play between meridian 59 and World of Warcraft? NONE, what is difference between ultima on line and any other mmorpg? NONE! Just as there is no general difference between any other genre there is none in mmorpg genre. In basic term that is game which requires you and me in team to beat something or someone. You can not do it alone, neither can I. So that's it. We are using this blogs and forums to argue which game is better but in my opinion that's bad. Let's organize and talk something creative like: Where can I finish that and that quest? or I have stopped playing WOW and moving to stormreach so is there anyone who will take me into guild?
That is whole point in playing mmorpgs f**** team work. Let's all together forget about equipment and pvp, let's role play for a while! I for example want to try RF online but I am afraid how will community accept me!!!! Will I find a good guild? Why not talk about that things instead waste our energy on endless debate which one is better.
To all of you true players cheers and best wishes!!!
