I want to start a DD guild in World of Warcraft. It will be on the Kul Tiras server where I currently have a lvl 11 Gnome/Rogue. I'll only start it if I get enough replies in this thread. If you want in post a reply.
"Chameloncholic" Said: Oh my god! I never saw it before. I'm playing a game that blows! Thank you, you've saved me from hours wasted. How can I ever thank you?
Where would I be without the opinions of strangers on the internet. Truly the world's greatest asset.
Fine, I'll elaborate on my opinion. I actually played WoW for a while, for the soul purpose of exploration, well, let me tell you something:
This game is not FUN. The paramount of gaming is FUN. In WoW, I found that in order to even LEAVE Elwynn Forest, I had to level for about 3 hours. 3 hours of killing wolves and kobolds, until I could finally reach a questing level.
At which point I was sent on a quest to kill some wolves and kobolds.
FINALLY, after DAYS I was at a level where I could freely explore a decent radius, and then I had to level up MORE to continue. For me, an MMO should focus more on gameplay and social interaction, whereas most seem to focus on never ending levelling.

You dummy, just take the quests... um you get experience... lots more experience than killing mobs... :roll: Gee I'm out of noob area easy... :P
Kul Tiras? aww... I think I made a horde character on that server... Sorry man. (You should be horde... :-D )
"Chameloncholic" Said: I'm on WoW europe, so I couldn't join you anyway. So sad.
Annoying as hell that isn't it?
i bought the game to play with my online friends, if i wanted to play it with real friends i wouldn't play it ONLINE i would just buy a normal multiplayer game or something.
I wasted money on it, like £50 or something, 30 on the game then 20 on the game card for 2 months play of which i used like a week.
Hey Unmature. You should maybe delete that lv 11 character and and be a horde on that server.. Or make a horde character on another server and make your Drunk Duck guild.
Or if your just looking for players:
My main server is Stonemaul
Allience night elf hunter JillyFoo (lv in 40s, 44 I think lastest.)
I'm looking for another server to start up a horde character. Got a whole bunch of low horde chars around. Let me know if anyone's going to start a horde drunkduck guild. (unless you are in stonemaul than ally)
"Chameloncholic" Said: Ah, so basically it sounds like you sucked at it. Also you can explore at any level. You just have to be careful. Or atleast I can anyway.
Yeah, try getting to Booty Bay at level 15. You can do it, you'll just get killed a million times.
And its not a matter of me sucking, its a matter of the game being geared towards item collection and levelling as opposed to PvP, social interaction and various things done as a party, most of which you have to reach a fairly high level to do.
I've been playing games like this since the old "pay by the hour" system, and so far, the only good MMO I've played within the last 8 years was Ultima Online.

And why, pray tell, should I have to waste my game time levelling for a rediculous amounts of time just to be able to interact with other players in a lot of cases? MMOs are no longer set up so that you can just jump in and play, now its hours of prep time.
I can agree with Jesus, my reasons for leaving the game were fairly similar. I really DID like the Instances. Especially Razorfen Downs and VC. Getting a party and going through an instance was often loads of fun.
But after awhile it just gets repetitive. The game play is pretty much the same throughout. You pull a mob, you kill it, etc.
Sadly, the battlegrounds stuff came a bit too late for me. By the time I reached 60, I was like... man, I have to waste 8 hours of a night trying to get an epic set piece that some Chinese ninja is just going to take from the group anyway? RIDICULOUS!
According to my sources, D&D Online has a lot more potential if you're just looking for a small group, dungeon crawling atmosphere.
