I Hope the game does well and all as it does have some hard core fans but personally i just don't see it holding my interest long term.I keep looking for that mmo that was everquest when it first came out but that apparently isn't going to happen,that sense of immersion.oh well i guess it's back to wow

Have you considered the possibility that you're just burned out and jaded with MMORPGs? I'm not flaming, it's an honest question.

im pretty sure 90% of people who complain about the current mmo and say that they  are looking fot another eq have actually never played eq and are just trying to look like hard-core mmorpg vets.

SWG
Twi'lek Bounty Hunter
Sharn'ak Loki of the FarStar(Europe)server

EQ2
Kerra Necromancer
Sharrrnak of the Antonia Bayle server

WHAT !?!

nethrill has cancelled his subscription to WAR? Why am I just finding this out now? I had signed up for email notification of all decisions made by nethrill... somebody has seriously dropped the ball here.

Ok - I gotta go cancel my WAR subscription too. I'll see you guys back in WoW - where nethrill and I will be. Yep - just the two of us, kickin it old school and drinkin the Blizzard kool aid.

Later suckers!

Me too. I've felt nothing but disappointment for the last 3 years with MMOs...I think I'll probably be done with this genre until/unless something truly different comes along. WAR has promise but the population imbalance is quickly ruining the experience for me.

ahh ok...so you might have used the word immersion incorrectly and i misunderstood, my apologies. And i know how you feel. I loved SWG and all it had to offer, love WAR, just not as much. And when a new star wars mmorpg comes out, i will be the first to jump off the war ship lol

No you just misread it :) He said he was searching for it and he was going *back* to WoW, so clearly WoW didn't end the search for him.

why is when one is critical of a game it's considered trolling?do you have to be a complete starry eyed fanboi to post on here to be considered a serious poster?

Either adapt to new MMORPGs or leave, just how it is. Nothing will ever compete with your first MMORPG experience, so just let it go.. because I assure you there is no such thing as a better experience ( this is not the quality of MMORPG's fault, but in the mind ). Perhaps you should be playing Vanguard, I thought that's where all the EQ1 vets went.

Becuase one thing is sharing with us and another is posting several posts one after another about how (all your posts):

- 9/28:

"At this point i'd say no.If they make some improvements like smoother less contrived combat with npc's,better chat system,smoother character movements....there are many improvements that have to be addressed.the game has potential but right now it seems like an incomplete game and not worthy of my 15 beans a month."

- 9/29

"i can't get over the feeling of being alone in this game since nobody really talks.i keep hearing get in a guild...well i don't particuarly like guilds but i do like groups.and though i have grouped up a few times it's basically a self absorbed game and sometimes i feel i'm just playing a single player game.i hope they do inmprove the chat function and people start communicating.the game has a lot of potential but as is i doubt little more than half the people who bought the game will re sub."

You tell us now that you goign back to WoW but said that you will go to LoTRO too:

- 10/2

"I see they are giving a free weekend and i think i'm going to reinstall and check it out again.i haven't played in over a year so i'm curious.i'm defintely disappointed in war and feel lotr was a much more solid and rewarding game having now tried both.so i'll be cancelling my sub to war and may be resubbing to lotr."

Then 9/28 you showed me how you are a DF Zealot:

"after aoc and warhammer's failure to deliver the goods, darkfall is the last hope for an awesome game.i sure hope it delivers."

So... repeating once after another after another after another how bad WAR is not just sharing.  Share once.  Share two and I doubt of your intentions.  Then said how uber great hope DFO will be and I know you just bashing a game that you dont like.

You have the right to express your opinion and I have the right to express my opinion that you are a troll and your post are not consructive.  The difference is that I wont go into all your post and keep repeating it, neither I will start posting thread after thread saying it.  I just share my opinion once.

Resume: you have the right to repeat a ziliion times how bad WAR is for you.  I have the right ot think you are just a troll.

You are putting unfair expectations on a game if you want it to be like something from 8 years ago.

If you're going back to WoW from this game then you certainly are not from original EQ.  I'm sorry that's just not the case.

So you're saying that original EQ players would play WAR instead?  I'm going to say sorry but that just doesn't seem reasonable to me.

Altho I guess if I was looking for that type of game play maybe I'd go to FFXI instead of WoW but /shrug personal choice.

Being able to choose the skills you want to use, offers much less variety than pre-made class based systems.

I agree, WAR is like Guild Wars plus, not a more EQ-like, sandboxy game when compared to WoW. I will continue playing, as I love the PvP.

Well you can always hope that the new  Bioware MMORPG being announced on Oct. 21st doesnt suck!

 

Bioware is by far my favorite Co. in the video game industry right now, ive never been dissapointed by any game released by them, ever. Hopefully their venture into the dangerous waters of the MMO industry doesnt prove too daunting a task.
