Interesting to see the whole campaign about "skill based" MMO's and how the users should feel about those who obviously don't like or want to play them.. You are sissy's dressed up as wizards, compared to the more MMA savvy "skill based" crowd..
I never understood this mentality.. I've seen it in games like League of Legends where the population considers it a "hardcore" experience because you have a certain group who take it really really serious, but is that an example of being "tough" or simply just being passionate about what you are doing?
Lets face it, so called skill basd MMO's can be just as "candy-land" as other MMO's we consider too easy, the factor it seems everyone is assuming on this is the side of PvP.. And if I am not mistaken, playing against a human opponent is ALWAYS tougher or more "hardcore" than a computer controlled opponent which doesn't really take the actual combat system or mechanics used to make that much of a difference..
What would make people think that aiming a skill is something that only "hardcore" tough MMA fighters can do? Is it really that new of a thing for MMO's when FPS games have been skilled aim games for years..
It's really strange to me the things people would compare themselves to in order to seperate themselves from everyone else..
I'm not sure I agree with the "I am the hardercore generation" sentiment thats going on..

"And if I am not mistaken, playing against a human opponent is ALWAYS tougher or more "hardcore" than a computer controlled opponent which doesn't really take the actual combat system or mechanics used to make that much of a difference.. "
It seems you have never pvp'ed against my woman. :P
