Title: WOW, anyone?
Post by: Yimmy The Cat on September 02, 2011, 09:06:29 AM
Just watched a review of WOW. Looks better than runescape, so to ask some of the people here in CG, how do you guys like it? Does it take a Epic computer to run it? Are the monthly fees too much, or are they moderate?



Also, feel free to post videos and/or screen shots of the game.

When I played it was 15 dorras a month and the graphics aren't awesome but it's their style. I get bored easily with mmorpg games for some reason.

Ive played it, for 2 months.

IMO its a really boring game. Maybe if your really good at it then its fun. But when you are new to it, its really boring.

If you get a friend, let him invite you, activate using that E-Mail.
You will have Double the XP when close to each other, now if you add Skype Calls and PvE it's amazingly enjoyable.
One week, lvl65. Sometimes even triple XP, because I was rested or something idfk.

3 words: Don't start it.

WOW sounds like a cheap game, but really a monthly fee to play a BOUGHT game is stupid to begin with. Making it this high, is just fucking retarded.

WOW is a great example of a game where people easily get addicted with by the most common reason ever: Rewards.
For doing stuff, you get a reward. For doing more stuff, you get more rewards.

Trust me, I played WOW a couple of years ago, and I'm VERY happy I got rid of it.
Starting to play WOW is like starting to smoke. Don't do it, so you will never have the trouble stopping it.

Smoking is different, I quit this game very easy.
I didn't pay, had other things to buy, done.

I played WoW for 10 days, just the trail, it was fun with my buddy, but without one to play with, I think it gets boring at some time.

I played Runespace too, it was damn boring... Really..

That was a serious opinion. Both Runescape and WoW are shit- you should dig a little deeper for good MMOs. I can't think of any off the top of my head now.

And yes, please guys, this is a serious DISCUTION so keep the DISCUTION on topic.

Keep on-topic, its a serious discussion. If you think it sucks, well tell us why. 2 words is considered spam / postwhoring.

runescape sucks because its generally shit in gameplay

To answer all of this.. max. level is 85, so 20 is not really much, it is possible to hit that in less than a day if you know how to do stuff.

And gameplay vids.. well, i have some of end-game raiding, but thats at level 85 and you are very good with good gear. http://www.youtube.com/user/TehCaekFTW If you want to watch it. Theres more coming up but the guy who is mixing the music is being slow Q_Q

In my opinion, WoW used to be an amazing game, but nowadays its complete SHIT.

I was a WoW beta tester, back then when it first came out it was honestly a really good game, and everything was fair.
But as it went on, blizzard started to change it up and it went in a downward spiral into complete and utter horribleness
The final straw for me was when they changed the mounts and the mount training to be about 80% cheaper and they lowered the level requirement by like.. 20... without even bothering to give a refund to the people that have already spent an extremely large amount of hard earned cash on theirs before the update

True this. Pissed me off when i spent so much on that and then they lower it all.

Ok, here is the next question, performance. What kind of computer does it take to run WOW. I currently have a 400$ one, and am getting a 900$ one for Christmas (I think). Would it be able to work on a 400$ PC? Or the 900$ one?

Wow can work on a decent computer. Depends if your a graphics whore or something, I can deal with medium graphics.

Also about the game itself, the trailer lies. Looks epic, but gets very boring. HL2RP is more fun then wow for me.

I liked it. It's because I had a friend who was playing the game from the day it came out, and he taught me everything there is to know... at around
level 80. :3. Anyways, it is a fun game if you play with friends, otherwise your just grinding daily quests. But no, Runescape can literally kiss my ass.
