I sometimes play MMOs with family members, but it's rare that I have a RL friend who is playing the same game, except for WoW, where all my friends are on different servers and want me to start over from scratch on their server... which means I hav…
As someone who played EQ from around the time of Kunark to around the time of Luclin, I agree with many of the OP's points, particularly the death penalty (assuming you're asking for a harsher, xp loss kind of death penalty instead of a minimal gol…
The gear score obsession is why I won't raid (or do much else at max level unless I'm trying to get heirlooms for my alts) in WoW. But that's fine, I'm an altaholic I am waiting for FFXIV though, and may go back to FFXI in a month or two while I w…

What makes WOW popular is that people like it and enjoy playing it. Its not that difficult to understand.
Simplicity is not a quantitative value, its qualitative. Just like everything else when dealing with opinion. A…
I agree that one of the bigger reasons that WoW is so popular is that it's easy on the computer requirements side of things... but I can't understand, having played both of them, how you can say that LoTRO is "Quest till your eyes bleed" and WoW is…
The current free month that you get after purchasing most MMOs is good enough for me. Glad to pay after that, tbh, although I do wish the prices were as cheap as they used to be... I remember EQ being between $10 and $12 / month... same with DAoC, …
I've considered it numerous times, but the biggest thing holding me back is that in FFXI I feel almost like I'm begging all the time for help with the tougher (but required) quests like the Genkai / level cap quests and missions... I've gotten past…
My two cents: I enjoy grouping a lot more than soloing, but sometimes I don't have time to wait for a group, or I'm tired of dealing with idiots, so it's nice to have the option to solo. I didn't like what WoW was, where soloing was so viable that g…
I enjoyed Vanguard for awhile, but it ended up feeling too much like WoW to me and not enough like EQ. Not that WoW is necessarily bad, I was just expecting something closer to EQ when I logged into what was frequently claimed to be EQ's "Spiritual …
I wouldn't say that the class system is out-dated or obsolete, it's just different from a skill-based system. Aside from what the above poster mentioned, a class system also makes it much easier to confidently form parties with other players. If yo…
Ohh... the Goblin ocean water is all smooth and shiny and clean.... and full of junk.... xD Seriously though, looks awesome. Worgen looks interesting. Might play a Worgen druid even though this time around (just started again this week) I've sworn …
They're probably giving access to beta for stress testing. If I remember correctly, FFXIV was slated for release around the same time as FFXIII, so it would make sense. Kind of like how so many MMOs lately give early access for those who pre-order.…

Why not just have loot not drop for the group as a whole? Leave the loot tables exactly as they are, just separate the players loot from each other. Each mob that dies has a chance of dropping something for me, but i…

Would be nice to see an MMORPG.com review.
I agree with the UO and DAoC remakes most. Both have the potential to be unbelievably awesome I had a lot of fun with DAoC, even on the PvE side. Their character classes are just so fun. And the epic storyline for each class that goes along with t…
