Hey guys what's up,
Why do you like mmorpg games? keep your answers short and simple *no Fighting please lol
I tried Wow*10daypass,
GW(Baught it), and
FFXI(Baught it)
and some free mmorpgs

I liked FFXI the most simply because I loved the leveling system and the way you can kill the mobs (the graphics... or whatever do you wanna call it)

I need your opinions
thank you guys !

    Personally. I love the people you get to meet. They can be the nicest/funniest people in the world. (Thusly would be guildmates >.> ) Thats why when I played WoW for as long as I did. It felt bad just leaving the people I knew and its like I wasn't going to be able to talk to them again. Eventually I got so sick of WoW that the people I know and call my friends couldn't keep me there.

    FFXI was fun with my friends as soon as they whent I whent too, cause I just didn't find as much fun with it.Though I always like the idea of meeting new friends and such as that.


    Siehst du mich
    Erkennst du mich
    Ganz tief in meinem Herz
    ist noch ein Platz f?r dich
    Ich suche dich
    Ich sehne mich
    nach dem was ich geliebt hab
    doch ich find es nicht

    I like MMO's, because it offers you a virtual world to be what you can't in real life. I am a roleplayer, so that is my biggest draw.

    You know. I kinda like text based RPs more myself. Though I do get involved with like RP on my character.

    The interraction with other players. I'm sorely lacking friends in real life.

    I'm considered a friendly guy, but never seem to be able to make good friends.

    But I'm a passionate gamer and gaming alone is boring :)

    So there you go.. I love MMORPGs because of the people I will meet with definite similar interest.

    Wow, the post above me just took the exact words out of my head and put them into writing >_>

    It's mainly the social part of MMOs that appeals to me, but as i'm not too outgoing (even in MMOs)l, my friends list is never quite as big as i want it to be.

    I enjoy the roleplaying aspect.

    I've heard that text-based MUDs have better roleplaying than any of the 3D MMORPGs, but I just can't bring myself to play a MUD, though I have tried a couple. It takes a good deal of imagination to picture the locales as described by the text, but at the same time it's too fast-paced to let me imagine or absorb anything well. So...MUDs just aren't for me. IMO text has its place in books and novel-style forum/email RPGs, not so much in fast-paced mechanics-based MMORPGs.

    Anyway, the OOC social aspect is also attractive to me because I'm autistic IRL and have very high difficulty conversing or socializing in person. I don't have that problem in text. Maybe because I have time to compose my responses (almost no such thing as awkward silences in text), and I don't feel pressured to react correctly and figure out subtle body language.

    I like them cause I like to feel screwed over, MMO's give me that feeling each and every single day I play them.

    I like to play them because you get to make friends and meet loads of people. I also like MMORPGs because its more of a long term game than a game you just complete and thats it. You can never eally "complete" an MMORPG :P
