    Please, enough of the popularity contest!  You make me feel like I'm in High School again.

    Why don't you apply that same popularity standard to today's music then tell me the top of the charts contain the best musicians.  Geez.  image

    And yes, I'm tired of the stupid WoW vs EQ2 battles.  They're both cool games.  They both are fun for different reasons.  And I hope they both live long long long lives and provide their subscribers with all the fun they hope to get out of them. 

    I'd hate to see either game go the way of AC2.  That sucks.

    5 million people think its a good game or they wouldn't be playing.

    millions of people like britney spears. thsoe people think she is good.

    its their opinion. just like someone likes WoW over EQ2 or whatever other games are out there.

    so yes i'm tired of seeing all the dumb posts about the subject. and not just WoW vs. EQ2 but every other game out there.

    Well accually I'm more sick of the WoW vs. GW threads. I havn't noticed much WoW vs. EQ2 threads lately. But still WoW beat out EQ2 a long time ago lol. 5 million subscribers to umm...w/e EQ2's lower playerbase is...you know what I'm trying to say...WoW is better than EQ2. As for WoW and GW...they're basicly the same.

    Boy oh boy...I knew this would happen just by reading the topic. Yes of course we're all sick of them but making a topic about it is just catnip for these kind of people. Might as well lock this thread now because I'm sure it will be very soon.

    Also didn't the moderators ask us not to make any topics regarding the two games in relation to each other? ::::06::

    I honestly thought EQ2 had been cancelled after everyone left for WOW.

    People are still playing it?

     

    GW isnt even a MMORPG.  It a MMO combat simulator for 20 whole levels.

    lol ..heh let people that wanna read the arguments read them..its no big deal..it doesnt matter if we post it everyday,its just not a big deal.
    neither is wether wich game is better,it doesnt matter-if u like it cool..no hurt in talkn about it..thats what foums are for..and like they said above, it doesnt matter if 5million people play it, that doesnt make it fun, what if 5 million people were playing the matrix online or something..big deal..
    i say let them argue..doesnt change a thing..keeps the boards alive, new people are able to read them..if u dont like them dont read them..lol.
    my thought...dont mean to offend anyone tho

    you really can't compare the Music Bussniss to the MMORPG bussniss.
    the main diffrence: people go like:"Look, i listen to [insertrandomcrapartistakarapper] i'm so kewl"
    but people won't go like: "Look! I play WoW, I'm so kewl"
    notice the diffrence?

    of course they can be compared...not by ''kewlness'' but by the effect of marketing on sales.

    People should just play what they enjoy playing and not trying to recruit others to your game of choice.

    Ok obviously you people have such a lack of content on WoW that the best thing you can do with your time is to come up with stupid ass remarks.image

    C'mon WoW players...even you should be embarrased that the people that open there stupid faces are making a sterotype of your community.

    Reputation is everything, even as an eq2 player, just look at SOE.  And then look at blizzard.  Just because it is more popular dose not make it better so stop using numbers and start backing up you arguments with reason and maybee they would not be so annoying but actually interesting to read.

    If everyone like this guy were left on a deserted island without any resources, the world would be a better place for all.

    The new EQ2, better than ever befor !

    exactly docter Phill, and whats the main factor that makes music sale? its called Hype and status.
    this factor is not even half as big in MMORPG's.

    It's not the EQ2 vs WoW threads I'm tired of exactly. What really becomes annoying is people who fail to grasp the concept of subjectivity.

    Currently playing:
    * City of Heroes: Deggial, Assault Rifle/Devices Blaster. Server: Defiant.
    * City of Villains: Snakeroot, Plant/Thorns Dominator. Server: Defiant.

    Exaclty. So game A has 5 million subscribers and game B has 1 million ( or whatever), so what! If someone wants to assume that game players are like sheep, that's up to tthem. I like to credit game players with more intelligence, since I am one ::::01::.

    Everyone does what they like anyway, or should do. I pay for the game, the subscription, the broadband account and upgrades to my computer. I find out for myself which game is 'best' by downloading a trial or reading opinions of others, magazines, other websites etc, who I am free to ignore.

    I doubt anyone is influenced by these types of posts as they are either already playing one of the 2, play both/neither or are thinking of getting one, but read the official forums/download a trial instead.

    Anyone let's talk about something more important, PLAYING MMORPGS MAKE YOU IMPOTENT.

    Peoples are comparing kiwis to bananas.

     

    When WoW died, it will died fast and it will leave many persons surprised.

    I agree Ashkent, I am tired of seeing "this game is better than that game". Whether or not a game is a good game is a matter of opinion and everybody has one. You really cannot compare one game against another because they are all a bit different and each one has its hot points. You might as well ask, "what is better an apple or an orange". That is why, people who ask "what game is better" are asking the wrong question. What they should really asking is "what game do you like better".

    ======================
    It's just me, so open the door.

    Exactly what i was saying.  If people asked that then others woul actually have a reason for why they like one over the other instead of just WoW has 5 million subscribers (actually they only anounced what like 2.5 million, so i wonder ware that number came from?)and actually say why they like the game.
