World of Warcraft.

[The Destroyer]

I've dipped in and out of it, but I've never really played for more than a few weeks at any one time.

Other MMOs have grabbed my attention far more.

Yeah, if I wanted to do repetitive, boring actions over and over for 8 hours at a time without making any progress, I'd get a job at McDonalds where I would at least get paid for it.

You mean like that one time you spent 8 hours on the phone waiting to get your WoW account reconnected?

I hope you don't think we all forgot the thread you made about it.

Congratulations on finding that. Now how about you find the last time I posted in there? Or the last time I played.

Ill save you the trouble and tell you it was shortly after Wrath of The Lich King. Why? Well because after 72 levels of doing the same things over and over and over. I sat back and realized I still have 8 levels to go to level cap which is likely another month or so of doing this shit and then I have to grind more to get gear so I will be properly equipped when the next expansion comes out.

I ended up uninstalling the game the next day.

If a game can do that, how can you not say that it's not superior? I guarantee any game you can list will not fall into both casual and hardcore sides. It'll vastly be to one side or another (usually the hardcore side). On the flip side, I can understand saying it's not the best because it has this, or doesn't do that. But that's more opinion that you cannot honestly back up with fact (in most cases). It's really the same with music. Why is Justin Beiber "bad" because YOU don't like him? I'm not defending him because, frankly, I've never heard one of his songs. But I feel if a majority of a populace likes something and it pulls in the most money, and it's known by the most people, it should be considered the best. Music and gaming tastes are opinion. Money and subscribers/CD sales are cold hard facts.

Example? Team Fortress 2. Appeals to more competitive gamers like myself and Req but is also so easy that after a few hours a noob can be a decent player.

Its only been around I think 7 years as well and they still patch it regularly.

Bieber on the other hand is a product of marketing, auto-tune and 12 year old girls infatuation with some of the gayest looking people out there.

Who's sock are you?

As for that, my cousin wanted me to group with him against Illidan or someone. I spent all day trying to get through to get it playable and the fucker ended up quitting WoW a week later.

So pissed at him for that still.
