Can you honestly tell me with a straight face that it looks worse than WoW? Please?

Good read.  If the Wow fanboys/trolls are smart, they'd realize how incredibly foolish and naive they are.

WAR looks dark and gritty vs. the light/gay/cartoony WoW

Looks fine but you're comparing it to a 5 year old game .

I didn't realise the two had so much in common until now.

Based on that link, WAR looks like a repolished WoW to me. Then again, I guess that's not surprising.

Oh well :(

To be honest, I would be perfectly fine if WAR's final graphics were better than WoW but worse than AoC's.  Great MMOs are not judged on graphics alone.. in fact, that should be a minority consideration.  GAMEPLAY is key.  Only suckers judge a game on graphics alone.

Behold! Rash of the Itch King comes in November! Quake in fear!

The point of the article was not to say which had better graphics, obviously WAR will because WoW is 4 years old. Seeing as WoW dumbed down the WAR style by making it cartoony, it's obvious that WAR looks much different compared to WoW.

However, the logic of my statement will bounce off trolls like a Superball.

I'm a major fan of the warhammer IP and will be quitting world of warcraft for WAR when it launches.

However, the Bioware mmo which is yet to be announced is intrigueing me more than anything, I reckon its gonna be the "sleeper" of next year, they are by far the smartest people in the known universe!

WHY SO SERIOUS???

I like this post.  It is proactive, instead of reactive.

You could view this as Wow fans comparing their 5 year old game to a new game (during beta), which pissed off a lot of War fans.  They got what they deserved in the end, and this thread needs to be stickied as well. 

All the weekly troll posts on comparisons should just be consolidated in here.

"but if you you went about talking on how Warhammer Online would be a WoW clone, you might want to think again."
