with guild wars new expansion its awesome uspcialy with the new lvl upgrade i belive they made anyways. WOW is a game that made a lota nice things but realy realy forgot to tune em.guild wars has a nice story even classes are evned out nice combat PVE and PVP dont suck and are actualy fun.the new expansion tweaked the bad things and made it pretty darn good...and i dont even like the game that just proves how lucky WOW is kid...im actualy rooting for WAR to come out u might wanna look at and dont act like a 12 year old and go...WOW CLONE GIVE IT A 0 it has its own unique gameplay and wellmost history of lore then anything id say..
Originally posted by WizGamer Okay, I don't believe this. Guild Wars gets a higher ranking that World of Warcraft. Guild Wars is great for the first three weeks sure but then it gets boring as hell and you are done. There is about 200 quests and the pvp is just the same damn thing over and over again. It's also not a fricken mmo for all you peeps who don't know about it. Its all based on your connection and everything is instanced, even areas where there are other people (which are only towns and outposts). Most of the time you find yourself playing alone. Well I don't see how a game with one of the best ratings of any MMORPG (every single CREDIBLE site gives it a 9 or above) and 5 Million PLAYERS. Thats not even accurate, it's close to six million now. (On a side note I went to Best Buy last night and they have gold stickers on the WoW boxes that say "5 Million Online!") My point is that WoW is one of the most complete online games. I know the pvp sucks at times but we can only hope for better pvp with the expansion but still, it's a great game with rough edges. Every thing is the same or better than other online games. I don't even see how EvE can get a higher rating. I thought it was boring as hell with the time it took you to fly everywhere and there was never anyone around and the controls were screwed up.
For any people that didn't know, World of Warcraft used to be ranked third, of course under Guild Wars and Eve Online still but now its topped by EQ2? WTF!?!?! A game with graphic leaks (I own it FYI), instanced world, bad graphics, and crappy to nil pvp.
I think that people have been seeding posts against WoW because they are jealous of it and have really no experience. They just want their game to look good but would any of you guys say that FFXI is better than WoW?
Well, sorry for taking so long but I just felt the need to express this and maybe some of you could revive WoW on this site because mmorpg.com is one of the most trafficked online gaming sites. Thanks and I hope I didn't bore you.
After playing WOW close to if not 2 yrs I left WOW out of sheer boredom. I belonged and am one of the founders of the top two raid guilds for the horde. Lobster Brood, and Platinum. I also had a pvp account and was a proud member of Warstomp PVP. Taught Alamo everything there is to know about a druid! How powerful innervate really is! Was considered the top pvp druid of all time before the druid upgrade! of that 2 yrs I lived in BGs about 7 months straight!
Why I quit? Because after 2 years it (the game) has really never changed. I still have 5 toons lvl 60 and 3 lvl 55+ on one account. Doing full MC in less than 2 hours, doing BWL so much my ass hurt from sitting in the chair so long! Im not bashing WOW. But personally for me, its a game I have no desire to play. The addition of a Alliance shammie and a horde pally sealed WOWs fate for me.
So if you still enjoy WOW good for you!! enjoy it! hope you experience the fun times i went thru! Many of us left because it comes to a point where raiding or pvp is no longer fun but a chore.
Sincerely(My WOW dr00d) Onyx!
Grukan, Redemon, Slithe(Alamo) still luv you guys.. You guys are the best!
I don't care much for WoW, but the fact of the matter is, GW isent even an mmo.

gw and wow are both rated 8.1 for the "our rating" (mmorpg.com staff) and yes i do disagree with this but at least its a start...unfortunatley gw always leads on average user rating mainly because most of the gw community are immature and give gw 10 for every proporty and i do feel sorry for the minority of gw who arent complete d*cks
DAOC - Too many characters to list maxed out best game ever at the time but not now that WOW is out.
EQ 2 - played for one month and quit. This last month to be exact and so you know that when i flame it I've played it recently.
Guildwars - Class doesnt matter..I have unlocked all skills through pvp not pve but I have played PVE and guild wars PVE is shitty beyond belief.
WOW 60 rogue
First my EQII vs. WOW rant
Okay pvp wise you guys are clueless. UO is first best, DAOC is second best, but WOW will soon be better then both because mmorpgs constantly evolve and WOW evolves the best since it has the best dev. team and company working behind it. In other words blizzard is not concentrating on profit margins when making games but game mechanics. WOW is the best mmorpg game mechanics wise and not because it's simple but because it works the best. It's that simple. If you want to refer to efficiency as simplicity then go ahead and do so but don't sit their and tell me that EQ 2 is more in depth then WOW when there are only really four classes in EQ2. What I mean by this is that every type of rogue in EQ 2 is the same with slightly varried skills. IE...the bard is the same as the assassin but with different graphics, ultimately there purpose is the same with slightly altered numbers. Atleast WOW doesn't pretend to disguise four or five classes into 16. That is total bullshit and a marketing gimmick and the same thing with VAngaurd. Incase most of you don't know these games are made by sony, sony interviewed and highered staff. Sony is hte same company that tried to monopolise vhs through beta ten or so years ago and now is trying to do the same thing with blue ray.
Now my WOW vs. Guildwars rant.
GUILD WARS SUCKS. Plain and simple. I can beat someone in pvp with teh default skills even if theyh have every single skill unlocked because there are certain templates that will own no matter what. SKILL? Yes there is much skill involved but their is also much skill inovlved in magic the gathering but that doesnt mean that it translates into a good computer game. What guildwars is.....Is a card game in real time. Let's not talk about the PVE...it BLOWSSSSWSS. I showed ten random kids in college and a couple adults, one a doctor and one an accountant, not that it matters guildwars PVE and not one person said anything good about it. Now compare that to the ratings on this site, and all those people were part of my UO guild so they were experienced players fants of fallout 1,2 final fantasy gamers you know what i mean?
Sorry about my punctuation i'm in a rush but I had to suppor thte original poster. AND EVE!!! Come on you don't even get an avatar. You get a ship and you micromanage forf like two years to do what? Micromanage pvp? F*** that. I want total control. I don't want to play a movie. BL*W me if you don't agree.
And btw I think guildwars should be rated 0 for not engaging the player for longer than two weeks and for being so easy that pvp becomes a random crap shoot of what skills you join a game with. No structure = No fun.
Very simple... this site is full of jaded mmorpg players... don't take this site to really mean or rate anything. Try playing it yourself and decide. Why did it take so long for them to rate Dark and Light... I will tell you why... advertising money and nothing else runs this site and the world really
I've tried to tell all the gw fanboys its not a real mmorpg in multiple threads but it always fails. In the end they just call you a noob and put their hands over their ears and say "lalalalalalalalalalala i cant hear you".
actually, i have to say the ratings on this site are pretty descent, its just alot of people like gw and so they voted for it, and alot of people like WoW, just not as many. In my personal opinion gw is on the line between MMORPG and singleplayer game with awsome multiplayer, but lets take a step back and see what this means. It shows how gamers today are bored with the old style mmo's, and they want something new. This past year, the only newness in the mmo community was gw, which was the first mmo to provide free online play. So hopefully other games will join gw in its quest for trying to do good.
The answer is pretty simple why WoW is not in the top 10 games on the site. This site is targeted to MMO players that jump from one crappy game to another, they hate WoW because people are having fun with it while they can't. They like to call themselves oldschool MMOers who are too leet for such mainstream and simplified game as WoW, they jump from one crappy game to another trying to prove it's better and more complicated than WoW, they waste tons of time reading this site that lists gazillion of pathetic MMO games in hopes to find a good one, while average WoW player spends his/hers time just playing WoW and having fun.

Agree. Also WoW has a very (sometimes too) active offical forum, on patch days geting onto the forum is not easy becuase 1000's are doing the same. I blame blizz for not providing more bandwidth on the forums.
Also you got to realise that all the ratings here are reader ratings, so if more EvE or GW players come here then no doubt they will be above WoW, not becuase they are better or worse but becuase they got more players on mmorpg.
Compare all the WoW sux posts to all the GW sux posts, and see what you get. More people on these forums hate WoW for being so popular, among other things, than GW.
WoW gets flamed more, WoW gets voted down, GW gets flamed less, GW is higher on the ranking.
Personally, GW isn't even an mmorpg, so it shouldn't be on this site, but regardless it's probably the worst game i've ever played and I think the ratings reflect how "noob" most of the people that visit this website are...

Does it really matter what it's rated here. If you like great, if not that's great too.
