In theory wow is the "best", technicly is also the best, used to be even better before expansions...but now even beying the best i log on and after 30 min playing im burned...so that means for me its not the best...its the best in a theoric and thechnic point of view.
It is not the game's fault that you are burned after playing it too long and too much.
Take a break and look at the sun.
You can always try a burnout copy of the game of course and that's one of the reasons why those games gather empty servers after a 2 month launch.
lol he said after 30 min not 30 hours, the dude couldve just come in from outside?! lmao
being burnt on the game just implies he gets bored with it after 30 min easily...not that he has a problem XD
Apparently you need some reading skills... Since he even talks of the pre expansion period I guess he's one of the 3000+ hours guys.
))) I 'll even give him a prescription : .... a break of one month of one of those newer duds will do it for now
apparently i dont XD he couldve played a long time ago and still got burnt after 30 min, just because he played pre expansion doesnt mean he played 3000+ hours you are *assuming* so no...i dont think so scooter.
I have truly given WoW a shot and I cant get into it at all. Give Guild Wars a try, so far it has been the game that I enjoy playing the most of any of the many I have tried.
Yup, I tried all releases/betas, all sux. I am not an WoW funboy, but I start to think that nothing can beat WoW that year... There is NO MMORPG at the moment to give me same feeling what WoW have given me 5 years ago, NO ONE. I am still waiting... or maybe, I will come back to WoW.

No one is burnt out of a Blizzard game after playing it for 30 minutes. Sorry.
Unless you're Mark Jacobs of course.
I'm sure MJ played games like WC Rts, SC and Diablo for years like the rest of us.
Him not playing WoW was just PR spin we all know that bastard has a level 80 nightelf dancing naked on a mailbox in ironforge on a EU server lol!!!!!
Good god man, Don't say that in front of wow peeps or they will burn you at the stake.
Velika: City of Wheels: Among the mortal races, the humans were the only one that never built cities or great empires; a curse laid upon them by their creator, Gidd, forced them to wander as nomads for twenty centuries...

But why? They are part of the 60% of the market? Aion isnt going to get 60%! Are they getting insecure now? :P
Market shares and sub numbers are for white collar pencil pushing peeps, aka: beancounters.
Who cares
Edit: add super hardcore fanboys to the list.

This is the way I feel about Everquest , the only difference is that I'm mature enough to admit that there are better games out there. UO was my first, but I think after the 10th greifing I gave it up.
I haven't played WOW now for around a year or so. I did play it for over three years though. I really liked it. There are other games that excelled on one point or another better than WOW, but WOW got it right by being a jack of all trades. And yes, I was one of the 3000 hour club members lol
That said, like all good things, it came to an end. I got burnt out. I tried a lot of different games this past year, and didn't find the right jack of all trades replacement I had hoped for. I just preordered Aion, and thus pin my hopes that the choice was a good one. I do have a good feeling about it, but who knows.... I am also looking forward to GW2 and TOR. Both those games are looking promising IMHO.

Blah screw what the haters say, I do not play WOW anymore but I must say no game out there comes close to giving me the feeling that WOW did back when it first came out. And there is a reason for that, simple put WOW with all its cartoony characters and what not was and is the most complete MMO to date.
Its popularity stims directly from that fact. People hate the fact that WOW dominates, but who cares you cannot deny that its populatrity is a direct result of the fact that the game is just good.

By any objective opinion, WoW is "the best" MMO on the market at the moment. Unfortunately, these are the forums .. where objective opinions come to die.
objective and opinion should not be used right next to each other.
I would refrain from calling WoW the best. WoW is more the Mcdonalds of MMOs. They do not have the best hamburgers, but they are good and have a decent mass market appeal. Its convenient decent enough and quick.
it puzzles me when people say wow looks dated and the grafixs look rubbish.
for me anyway i think the game looks great i love the look and feel of the game world it feels like one big magical adventure to explore.
ive played most mmorpgs to date and no im not a wow fanboy , ive played eq2 since it went live and burned out now and only been playing wow for 2 weeks now.
has for saying wow is still the best i think you do have it wrong, everquest2 is a great game to, same for ao but that looks dated now.
and whats with people obsessed with sub numbers theses days in mmorpgs you see posts all the time on the subject, to me if you are haveing a great time playing a game why give a rats ass.
You folks are arguing with the guy who will be the last WOW player on the last WOW server telling you all how everything else sucks. Or perhaps once WOW is no longer the number 1 in subs he will move to whatever is and tell you how everything else sucks....time will tell the tale.

Playing: WoW, EvE
Interested in: TOR, ER, GW2, WoD, Dust514
If Wow would really be that entertaining people wouldn't hang out in Forums all Day and talk bullshit...
"You're such an inspiration for the ways that i will never ever choose to be"
Around 1-5% of the mmo community hangs out on forums, currently WoW covers 55-60% of the mmo market.
So yeah it is that entertaining, this place isn't reality.

And Britney Spears is the best artist in the market, yeah right...
LOL Britney who? last time I checked the most albums sold went to two bands.
Elvis and The Beetles at near 500 million sold, britney is around 90 mill with hundreds of acts ahead of her.
So yeah enough with Britney, start saying "so Elvis and The Beetles were the best music artists" and most would say yes lol!

I stopped reading there.
I seconded that.
By any objective opinion, WoW is "the best" MMO on the market at the moment.
Unfortunately, these are the forums .. where objective opinions come to die.
Playing: EVE, Final Fantasy 13, Uncharted 2, Need for Speed: Shift
objective and opinion should not be used right next to each other.
It's the best in value of all MMORPG by far. Won't get more for your money. But, she's starting to show her age a little. Like some of the players.
See you in the dream..
The Fires from heaven, now as cold as ice. A rapid ascension tolls a heavy price.
So, what does Blizzard have you guys grinding for now?
Tried: LotR, CoH, AoC, WAR, Jumpgate Classic
Played: SWG, Guild Wars, WoW
Playing: Eve Online, Counter-strike
Loved: Star Wars Galaxies
Waiting for: Earthrise, Guild Wars 2, anything sandbox.

I lol'd at this, so very true.
Windows is the best option for an O.S.
WOW is the best option for an MMO.
Many people will always hate what is popular. Let them enjoy Linux and EVE
