Wow isn't grindy.

It's addicing. There's a difference.
There is A LOT more to it tha just killing monsters to level up to kill stronger monsters.
Grinding means you sit around doing the same thing over and over for weeks.

Very true. Infact, the only way WoW gets grindy is when you just plainly kill monsters, it's all about the quests. ;D

ffxi should be on their

endless online. you need like 4 million exp to get to level like 40. and most mobs only give like 50-100 exp.

Compaired to most, FFXI isn't grindy. Soloing is rough, but if you have a good party plus a PL (optional I guess) you can get through 3-5 levels in a couple hours.

I think I'll add another game.

Rubies of Eventide. It's one of the more unsung great tactical indie MMORPGs, but it's pretty grindy if you don't have any good weapons or are lacking big parties.

HmHMmhm, Some games need to lvl with parties so assuming that u don't have a party.

-Ragnarok 2 Korean version (i believe that took me 5 days to reach to lvl twelve . (12)).... (and for those who are wondering how is it like . well it pretty much sucks xD haha , just to let you know, porings are llv 14 :] )

-Pristontale (Kind of Old game but the hardest.)

-Maple Story ( i had to use cheat on this one ,xD).

-FlyFF(If u don't have a party F O R G E T I T)

-Ghost online ( i dont really know . just quit cause it was really boring after awhile

)

Really? It felt like a bunch of daggers being stabbed into my face when I played.

I know D2 isn't a MMORPG but someone put GW in here.

I starts to get grindish round 80's specially if you die in hell mode (gotta love loosing xp when you die >_<)

And WoW isn't grindy, not while your leveling. Some classes are harder to lvl than others though ! you can get to lvl 60 in under 300hours and 70 in like 450-500hours of actual played time.

moshis · 07-28-2007, 08:05 AM

u think wow is a grind? lol

it takes 16 hours to 20 hours of game play to reach lvl 60

and then around that to reach 70

that is seriously nothing, and can be achieved in 1 month, 2 months max, if u play 2-4 hours a day, and more on weekends which is not even close to hardcore.

flyff is pretty grindy, maples grindy..

Auroron · 07-28-2007, 08:27 AM

I wouldn't call wow grindy, because it's possible to level up to 70 only by doing quests. The only grind is at the max level when you are grinding materials or gold which can easily be done with a group or in an instance

I'm surprised Flyff isn't on the list :O That is pure grindhell.
