    I don't really care anymore, until there is a significant official update.

    That's true. I wasn't trying to get anyone to like or dislike a game but trying to shoe why I hate certain games, rather than just saying "DO NOT WANT".

    Mabinogi is just as bad as WoW, IMO. (well not quite at least it has a slightly better community)

    And that's the problem. Every MMO since WoW has been terrible and seem to be getting worse.

    WoW is not by any stretch of the imagination a role playing game. And by real MMO players I mean those people who had been playing MMOs before WoW came out. Since WoW changed the genre so much it honestly should have been put in it's own category. Ageist? Maybe. Sexist/racist, where the heck...

    WoW is not a standard for MMORPGs. It has 11 million players most of which are not MMORPG players. WoW is not a real MMORPG, it's a cheap oversimplification of an MMO catered to players with limited intelligence and/or maturity and has done nothing to improve the genre.

    Because most of the people who play WoW are not real MMO players but rather just players from other genres (primary fps and rts) that were attracted to WoW because it was a blizzard game and it was made easy enough for their attention span. It is a failure because not only has it tainted the...

    WoW is just a failed hybrid clone of all previous MMOs.

    EQ2 is not a WoW clone. And the main reasons I don't like FFXI has nothing to do with challenges or not: 1. I don't like any of the races. 2. The community was too rude and close minded. 3. Level 75 progression was boring as all there was to do group wise was grinding tons and tons of mobs...

    You won't get anywhere playing like that. They are only trash mobs, of course they're easy. Not to mention my groups are good. That's a total exaggeration. One person going afk could be enough to make the group wipe. I agree that some of the "boss" fights were difficult but eq2 has...

    Excuse me but I had a Lv. 75 ninja, 75 thief, 70 paladin, 65 samurai, 55 warrior, 37 black mage, 37 white mage, 37 red mage and the rest I don't remember. What are you talking about? All the skill you listed is just the basics in eq2. And 20 seconds to kill mob is ridiculous. I'm in...

    Not immersed in quests, no. However what's more boring? Killing 10 mobs by pressing attack and going afk, then pressing "rest" and going afk again, or killing 10 mobs for a quest and actually having to push buttons to fight.

    That's weird because when I played FFXI the game seemed horrible. Right from the get go you get to lvl 10 and it's either spend 100000 years trying to form a group or solo at a ridiculously slow pace with nothing but grinding mobs, no quests, no nothing. EQ2 had me so immersed in the lore...

    Yes I was using the registry hack to get 1360 x 768, my "TV's" native resolution. I have TV in quotes because it's only 23" and I use it more as a monitor than as a TV. The performance is amazing since as far as I could tell it was impossible to get the frame rate to ever drop below max, even...

    That's hard to imagine. Unfortunately though after playing EQ2 for so long the FFXI graphics make my eyes bleed.
