3 reasons to vote WOW Cata:
1. For the first time in history an MMORPG was rebuilding its core landscape and beginners player experience throughout all these launching lands and quests.
Up until now any MMORPG just added some new continent and w…
Originally posted by zombiocracy In Lich King, there were areas you could skip in the progression tree because the initial tier was so easy (level 79's clearing Naxx, for example). In Cataclysm, the progression is much more like TBC, so I think you…

Situation EU servers on 03:45 PM Friday: 103 servers on full or locked (all languages combined). For the ENglish ones, it's 52 atm.
Never seen this before. And the weekend isn't even started yet.

Originally posted by gaeanprayer What you and some of the others using a similar argument are not realizing is how long a 20 year period of time is. Look at it this way, would you play the same game for 20 years? Even WoW lovers burn out and take br…
Originally posted by Loke666 6 years last month actually. And while EQ is still around it is not a force to be count on after 12 years. There will be some fans that will play it until they close the servers but I hear very few people caring if EQ or…
Originally posted by gaeanprayer Sorry, but no. Incarnations of WoW may continue existing and prospering for 20 years of more, similar to how Mario and Final Fantasy have continued for decades and still enjoy success. But WoW itself, no. If it laste…
Originally posted by Loke666 Yes but how many play the first Mario game anymore?
We might have Wow 3 in 20 years and it might be the biggest game then, but Wow will if it even have an open server be at best what UO is today.
Other games have las…

How long is that plumber Mario jumping ? : 26 years and counting.
6 years after Vanilla WOW, Blizzard upped the landscape and quests mechanics and I have a waiting queue of 20 minutes on my server to play my new character.

I find these discussions of "community" boring and non essential.
We play games with friends - be that on line or in RL - the rest of the dudes are just a background painting.
Who cares if a by passer says "Booh".
