Why do you have to sell your WOW toons in prep for joining AOC, a game you don't know whether or not you will like?   Sounds like rationaliziation for ass backward thinking to me.

I play wow, i think it's a great game.

I've done every heroic

I've fought in the arenas

I've done every BG(even back before it was welfare)

I've cleared karazhan

I've Stormed ZA(and got the third time chest caster ring!)

I've laughed in HKM's face

I've depants'd gruul

I've spit in mags eye

I've tore through ssc, and got stomped by vashj

I've played hockey TK, untill kael scored a goal on us

I've laughed at how terribly easy hyjal is...and then i fought archimonde

I've rolled through the first 3 of BT, and laughed at how easy teron was before constructs got into the raid.

I've leveled 4 chars to 70!

I've gotten every other class to at least 40!

 

I have done more in wow then most of the fanboys and tards around these forums will ever do.  And i have to say this.

WoW is a great game.  But at the same time... other games can be great too! what a shock!?!!

I mean I can log into wow right now and play it!  Then at the same time... I can go enjoy -other games-  how amazing is that!

How is this possible you ask?  How can someone actually like more than one game?  It's just beyond the realm of human reasoning isn't it?  Yeah.  It is.  

You don't like AoC?  Good for you, your not a special snow flake.  Blizzard doesn't give a shit if you like AoC or not.  Hell they would be just as willing to spit in your eye and stomp on your feet as they would thank you for defending it.  They just don't care.

These forums disgust me these days.  Are all of you on these forums so fragile and scared of the possibility of realizing that your not really doing anything important.  And that hating on other games for the sake of hating isn't scoring you any social points, or making any other game seem better.

I'm going to AoC.  I need something new.  Then when wotlk comes out.... i'm going to play it!  Then when WAR comes out... I'm going to play that too!  And guess what?  I'll have THREE awesome games to enjoy! i can actually have fun in different worlds, without having to worry about my epeen deflating because i'm not devoting my life, my personality, and my opinion around one game.  You all can stand around WoW, having a grand old time trolling forums, and spitting at other games.  Me?  I'm going to be having fun gaming.

Playing AoC having a blast. If I hit lvl 30 and it stays this fun then I'm ditching wow for good. Be able to finally say goodbye to my poor enhancement shaman. Just got to hope that I fall for a 'safe' class this time and not one that gets slowly strangled by the devs. Tip for any shaman players who want to come over - unless you LOVE the way kalagan and co have made your class so totally group dependent do NOT roll a ToS. (Maybe things have chnaged since beta but not touching it with a barge pole) If you do want the glass cannon big damage melee/caster then go HeX.

I always find it strange when people say you can't judge a game by it's starting area. The first few levels were what got me into WoW and kept geting better and better untill I found out I hate elitism and raiding.

It wasn't the graphics that I liked the most, it was how everything made sense while discovering the mechanics, it was how fun it was just to jump and how much UD /lol sounded, I don't know, undeady.

Oh, geting lost in Undercity for the first time was also a big part of it and also discovering how huge Azeroth looked when using the zoom out function of the map, knowing I need to walk to all those places first.

AoC? I don't know, it just seems more and more meh, the longer I read about it.

Well I sold mine WoW account, and I tried all kinds of AoC betas and I don't regret selling my WoW ass one bit!

Open Beta was not a preview and don't treat it that way.

i don't know what beta you played, but the wow beta was extremely smooth, just as it was at launch.  you can't blame wow's launch for gameplay, as it had NOTHING to do with gameplay.

most mmo's before wow had a maximum of like 300,000 people, blizzard could not have possibly even fathomed how many people bought the game at launch.

 

people are already having trouble even downloading the pre-game, which funcom charged for... so they took their money and they can't get in, imagine that.  the real mess hasn't even started until tuesday.

 

so don't even compare the 2.

You really should have tried EA.. it's flawless and fun as hell. 100x better graphics and performance than beta, I was one of the beta people who crashed often, loaded long, couldnt see the full textures.. well scratch all that. Now I can see all that and more. It's one hell of a launch. I wouldn't go back to WoW if you paid me.

  I have played wow for 2 years. In anticipation of the release of age of conan and my boredom with wows end game, I sold my 70 priest,70 warrior,70 warlock account.

 

    Needless to say, after playing aoc's "open beta" I am very very disapointed.  The so called next gen graphics are just not fantastic enough to warrant a loading screen every time your character takes a few steps (exxageration....barely)

 

      Rerolling a mage on illidan server (pvp). Name there will be severety if anyone wants to say hey. I am going alliance side this time against everything that I believe in. Have always been horde.Sadly, now that blood elves are in the game horde is the new alliance :P

 

        Guys, if you are bored with wow, but addicted to mmos like I am...looks like we have to wait til war to see if anything else decent comes out. Hopefully by then we will know more about the wotlk expac and perhaps blizz will breath new life into my beloved wow.

You win at fails, you "anticipated" that the game would be good and you judge it through a beta version.. i know there are alot that could be said, but the one and only thing to describe it.....

AOC will not be for everyone.  You need to have decent pc to run it.  So if ur PC is crap go play the old generation MMOs. 

Like someone said before - WOW is now for poor ppl.  And the casuals

I don't play wow, but I can accept the fact that it's launch and beta was 1000% better, don't give me your fanboy shit, prick.

 There will be as many kiddies playing AOC as there is in WOW percentage wise. The forums already seem pretty similar. That said anyone who can already say AOC is worse than WOW etc is showing major bias.  The game hasn't even hit it's official release date yet so thats just ridiculous.

 I haven't seen AOC yet as missed early access but the guildies playing it love it and they all  played WOW amongst others. That doesn't mean WOW is worse than AOC but one thing can't be disputed and that is that WOW is older. I know WOW is stale for me and that alone makes a new mmorpg worth trying and more than 1 or 2 days!.

For me, WoW is the worst MMO i've ever played. the graphics look like it was made on a GameBoy Colour, and the Gameplay...i just cudn't get into it. atm i play SWG which i find great, but i've been playing that for about 3-4 Years and its time for sumin new :)

OMG!!!... This is great news to me, I like to see some of the former WoW players saying bad things about AoC, this tells me that most of you childish bad players, that make WoW such a bad community will stay where you belong.

YES! YES! YES!..... freedom from bad WoW players at last....

OMG!!! *SMILEY FACE*

I don't know... Age of Conan has BLOOD AND TITS!  Maybe thats enough for us childish bad WoW players to be attracted to and eventually pollute your servers with our cancerous presence.  I've got some Chuck Norris jokes written down here to interrupt the utopia of intellectualism that is the Age of Conan chat channels.

Oh and look, I can instance-flip and zone-hop to escape PvP fights.  We're so already there, homey!  Just as soon as school finishes.

Still waiting for your Holy Grail MMORPG? Interesting...
