    Couldn't have said it better myself. WoW or not, these things are worth getting excited about.

    Funny that you should suggest this, when it's largely what they've been doing all along. This is exactly what they are trying to get away from. The only problem I see here is that everyone is assuming 10-man is easier than 25-man, which is most likely not true. Casuals are tired of being treated like second-rate players, even though they pay just as much as the hardcore. Blizzard wants to level the playing field, and allow epic gear across all forms of gameplay. If anything, this is long overdue.

    No, I'm pretty sure total subscriptions of Runescape globally would still be higher than FFXI and LotRO.

    I bet it looks like i'm trolling, but I'm not. Are they even trying?

    Sadly, I don't think anyone is trying these days. Seems like "second best" is the common goal now.
