WAR (Warhammer Online)

War and AoC are the most anticipated games right now. well AoC is out, but it is top of the line in MMORPG's, Aoc will grow to most likely millions of players much like Wow, and War is also a top notch game about to come out. it looks right now that WoW is at the peak of its popularity.

As Conan just came out, i know many people who have switched to it just because it is New and a very good game as well, many more of my friends are telling me once WaR comes out that they are leaving wow and going to play War.

as it is, many former WoW players have jsut moved over to Conan and many more are planning to, nobody will ever be able to just stop WoW, LOTRO helped alot but with these two games i think that we can assure one of them as the new King of MMORPG's

Im not saying that Wow is bad, im a WoW player myself, im just simply saying that i think there is a need for change in the most popular MMO out there

AoC has a 17+ rating so I doubt it would take over WoW and even with WAR it wouldn't take over. I really doubt it but it's only my opinion.

Yeah i know that there isnt much of a probability, But theres always a chance it will, i'd just like when your in a conversation where as soon as you say MMORPG, somebody brings up WoW

WoW is a really good game, but its just been talked about so much that everyone knows almost everything about it

Lots of people will be leaving AoC once they hit 45+ and realize there's almost no quests as they didn't finish the game before releasing it. Having the entire world split up into small instanced zones also seem to be a major complaint at the AoC forums. WAR is going to have a massive playerbase, but WoW is simply a giant - no one is going to kill WoW. WoW will die slowly of natural causes as any game does. I'd be very surprised if they don't ship out at least 3-4 expansions after Wrath of the Lich King.

I don't think we will ever see such a big mmorpg as wow agin in the next few years / or even never again

wow has opened the doors for a lot of people to the mmorpg market. And there are so manny games now and more  is comming so people have a lot to choose from ... So a blockbuster like wow? no. It doesn't mean WAR and AOC won't be popular, they will have a HUGE playerbase, but they will not hit the 10 milion subscribers like wow

Wow will stay the 'blockbuster' mmorpg for a while, I think you need like 10 times AOC to kill it...

But I don't think you wanna "kill" wow do you? It's true that wow will loose his popularity in time

But in 10 years wow will still have servers running. UO is also still running

I have played wow for years, I still love it but it had his time ^^ I need some new things

I've played some f2p's and guildwars, done the trail of eq2.. , I gonna try AOC at my friends place soon. If I like It I will buy it, But I'm also thinking of LOTRO and I'm waiting for TCOS ^^

lol yeah, i agree, im just hoping that this will speed it up

Add time into that equation and you have a winner.

I think that WAR and AOC will spell the end of Eve Online and COx, probably also Champions Online, even before it's released.

Why does everyone want to see WoW toppled?

I always thought it was a pretty game. They might not have the best of things in it and might not cater to everyones need, but it's still a good game. I just don't like they fact that they don't listen to players comments a whole lot. (Not a WoW fan boy, haven't played WoW in over a year. Just not a hater.)
