    Default Trying out WoW

    So, I am going to go pick up WoW later at Walmart for like $40 for the battle chest... I'd like to know on a scale of 1/10, how addicting it is and if anything what it lacks/takes away before I go and buy this thing... Don't flame anyone and please be serious, as I'd really like to know.

    I don't find it addicting at all. Its like any other MMORPG in my opinion. I say your better off keeping the 40$ and all the money you would save for paying monthly.

    2/10

    if you are starting out alone, will be quite lonely.

    things heats up when u get into guilds and into raids.

    the best thing about WoW now, beating all the other mmorpgs, is huge community.

    lol np.

    Useless, thanks for the opinion . It's appreciated and I get what you are saying on the whole "it's like all the other MMORPG's." To sum it all up though, how's the grind, how's the PvP, and most importantly is there class balances?

    -Thas you seem like you have knowledge on the whole WoW area. Maybe you can answer my above question ^.

    9/10 before tbc, 8/10 after the addition of resilience.

    Good game, PvE was better than the PvP before I quit.

    Compared to the other MMO's on the marekt:

    10/10

    Nothing has even come close to it in the last 4 years of my MMO playing.

    Erm.

    Probably about 5-6/10, nothing special, quite average and generic. However has enough content to make it superior to the vast majority of free games out there.

    Ah, we should put a warning up for the poor guy.



    WARNING: The vast majority of these boards have a hatred for WoW. Try it yourself imo, before the haters here turn you away from such an amazing game.

    Good point sKin.

    Warning: A couple of people are obvious fanboys of the game on this forum.

    If you do decide to try it out, know that you are starting in a very odd time, with the expansion coming out in 7 days and everyone getting ready for that.

    You might be able to find a guild of people just starting out and still leveling, but a lot of the guilds out there are already on black temple/sunwell.

    The good news is if you happen to get to 80 a little after the release of WotLK (at best) then a lot of the so called "best" guilds will still be newbies compaired to everyone else, and all the "hardcore" pvpers will be the same.

    Oh, and if you can, find somebody to play with. It makes the game a lot funner.

    Compared to ANY other free mmorpg , this game has a lot of content, took me 1 year to get bored of it ( wich is my personnal record )
    but please dont listen to people on here, especially those who are giving it 5-6 /10.. they probably never ever played the game and are only repeating what they heard on this forum since onrpg is famous place when it come to wow haters

    9/10

    He should just play the trial and get the info himself.
    These are opinions not "haters."

    No, my opinion was that you made yourself look like an idiot.


    You see, this whole 'Insult anyone who says anything bad about something and claim it was just your opinion.' concept doesn't work.
