get the 10 day trial or whatever, play the hell out of it and find out if you like it and if you do by all means pay for it and play the hell out of it

That advice is actually kinda of bad. The ten day trial wont let you see anything other than th frist few starting zones at best; these are not the parts of hte game that attract most people. Most people play for eityher end game pvp or end game raiding. I personally do a bit of both (google the wow armory and search for a tauren druid on the scilla server named Mookakke if you weant to see my character) but lean a tad more towards pve.*

If you really want to know what the gameis like, go to youtube and do searches for how to videos on ulduar boss fights. then do more searches for arena fights andbattlegrounds if you want to see hat pvp is like.

Judging wow by the trial is like judging a motorcycle by riding a bicycle. Doesnt really live up.

i didnt think of that, los, you have a point

considering how long it takes to get to end-game pvp, though, maybe the 10 day trial thing is the best way to go to get to know the game. you have to do a lot of questing to get that far up. a player should be able to decide if he/she is willing to put in that much time and effort to play the game. i know when i played the 10 day trial that it was all i needed to decide i didnt want to play it because i didnt like all the running around and questing. i need a little more instant gratification

No. It's the rudest game I've ever played. It has absolutely zero respect for the fact that your time on this Earth is finite.

"questing" at 80 is pretty much nonexistant.i get the need for instant gratification, but end game is pretty **** fun.

Also, in patch 3.2, they are going to allow experience to be gained from battlegrounds, meaning that you can level by doing nothing but pvp. Not sure if that makes or breaks anything for anyone, but just something to think about.

Poco is the smartest man alive for the previous statement.

seriously, when they announced battleground exp gain, was there a collective wail of horror on the WoW forums.

pre-renaissance ultima online would like a word with you.

also WAR is probably the best bet for pvp in an mmo atm. WoW is terrible rock-paper-scissors garbage.

actually a pretty easy way to leapfrog that fairly well. start your main account, then start a dumy account with the free ten day trial, then use your main account to recruit the trial with the recruit a friend program. the, get a keysplit program and set up to play both accounts at once. you get like 300% experiance while questing with your friend, and since you are your own friend you alwaqys get it. took a friend of mine about 20 hours played to get to 60 using my account to pwerlevel himself.

you're comparing apples and oranges jesus christ.

because mmos, 2d fighters, and contard FPSes are all the same thing. it would be a fair comparison if they, you know, were the same game type. also i don't own any consoles. lol.



Posted by archesjames

My wife was addicted to WoW. Then she got tired of all the higher levels running old quests that were new to her to kill the quest bosses before she could complete the quest. She would then have to redo the quest. Guild Wars it was just her and NPCs in her group doing quests without any outside pressure of other online players killing off the things she needed for quests unlike WoW. Plus it was free online play. Don't know how Guild Wars 2 will handle the online play since the same people who created Guild Wars created Aion and they're charging playtime for that game. Aion was mostly created for the PvP players than PvE.
