I have yet to enjoy a melee class in WoW. Though this one looks slightly more intersting than the others, ima pass.
I want a mmorpg where people have gone through misery, have gone through school stuff and actually have had sex even. -sagil |

I'm feeling the same, I thought I could look past it, I gave it a good three days, I finally logged back into GW2, then when I came back to wow it was like starting over again with trying to look past the graphics.
It didn't hurt that I took my under undergeared prot pally into some mop dungeons without reading up on anything and pulled 3-4 mobs at a time. I think it safe to call wow the substitute ref and GW2 the real deal. I was like man I can't do this, I stayed till the end of the dungeon just for the sake of the 4 other random people I was with, logged out and back into GW2 wvw, where graphics are shiny like a new car compared to wow, first thing I come up to is a catapult launching off, I'm thinking I hope that doesn't hit mean, I follow the smoke trail and realize I'm safe. So much going on... |

I don't understand the whole GW2 graphics are so great.. they are good but its a different style than WoW. I don't think GW2 is anything to write home about in the graphics department. So obviously if you don't like the style of WoWs graphics you just won't like it. It isn't to say they are terrible they just aren't what you are wanting out of your game. I think graphics wise WoW is still one of the best, the colors and animations are above any other game and granted that is because of years of polish but its always been good. |

I will give you color, the brightness of the game is nice in my book and creates a good mood. I think the darkness of Rift, and Swtor really turns me off of those games. GW2 has its spots, but its not like wow's rolling green fields that put you in a state of aww, with that wow also has its dark corners as well and I'm not talking about icc, they masked darkness very well with snow.
Animations.... Well your off your rocker, my charr can dodge, dive, dip, dance, and uh oh oh oh oh oh.... Charr can do the tootsie roll!!! |

If GW2 is so amazing, why are the hours played in a total freefall since September 3rd? I bought the game. I honestly found it to be very uninspired, the gameplay extremely bland... with neither fun abilities nor any sense of progression after level 30. I've played MoP for longer than I did GW2. It's actually fun and interesting to quest there. |

Not going to argue some of your points except your numbers, I mean the game launched on the 28th of Aug, so yeah people waited forever for it, of course the number of hours is going to be up right at launch compared to a month later, people settle in and resume normal schedules.

Originally posted by umcorian Well I have to say that the actual gameplay of GW2 is much more fun than WoW. I have been playing both and in WoW you just kinda stand there if you are melee. There is no anticipating the mobs moves and dodging. Trying to out-maneuver a Mob is part of a true battle. WoW simply is "un-wow" after playing GW2. I still am going to play MoP and GW2, but GW2 is a superior game when it comes to actual combat/gameplay. Disclamer: WoW is still one of my all time favorites. Death is nothing to us, since when we are, Death has not come, and when death has come, we are not. |

I have just returned to WoW after a long time away from the game playing FE,Swtor,GW2 and a few other games and beta tests along the way.I have been really surprised at how much I am enjoying the game again. The grapics are only a small part of the make up of the game and maybe the biggest thing is getting back with guild mates and just kicking back and having fun.

I know the game is dated but those combat animations are just bad. This has to be the first wow xpac since launch I passed on, after this vid I made the right decision.

Have not played WoW in about 5 years, never bought GW2 or SWTOR (and beta tested GW2 and dont give two licks about it) so I guess I am definitely in the minority. At this point I would be interested in going back to WoW if they make it B2P and drop the subscriptions altogether, they can generate money from box sales and whatever fluff items/mounts they sell (that I personally dont care about). I dont see that happening for a while though.

so this is the "big" new expansion pack we all been waiting for ? ughhh What is wrong with the graphic and that bloody giant rabbit , omfg, don't make me laugh. We are in 2012 , i'm sorry to say but that graphic just looks terrible. WoW is getting too old to keep up with the rest of the market.Worth not a penny from my pocket |
