Yea um, here is the thing. Not all WoW players are morons, and the server I am on I have yet to see anyone with the whole Gearscore fiasco thing going on. My guild personally does not care for it at all, we have actually turned down people with a high gearscore for people with realtively low gearscore only because those with higher were not always better. And the people who DO want only high gearscore are those that most of us older players despise and we older players try to help the new people in the game to get away from that crowd.
I'm glad you've got a good guild, but I played WoW for four years and across half a dozen servers, I found 3 guilds in all that time that didn't descend into idiotic drama at some point. Yes, there are smart and kind WoW players, but over the years they have got increasingly more rare, to the point where for the last six months any attempt at a pug anything was nearly unbearable. And I'm not talking about people who are bad at the game, just people who acted like complete shit heads whenever everything didn't go exactly as they wanted it. I really don't want that in ToR
[/quote]Anyways, SW:ToR will have just as many morons in WoW. You cannot escape the fact. In all the MMO's that I have played there is always that ONE group of morons that make the game look bad, WoW is just more popular than others so it is overshadowing that fact.[/quote]
True, and while I wouldn't say for certain that WoW has a higher percentage of jackasses than other MMO's, they certainly are more noticeable. And I didn't mean that ToR wouldn't have jerks and morons playing, of course it will. I just hope that the community can come together in a mature way as a majority, unlike WoW.
Anyways I am bad with words. What I am trying to get at is this: All MMO games have a group or multiple groups of morons. You cannot escape this fact.
Agreed, but I'm just hoping that they will be a small, or at least quiet minority in ToR.
HA! Yea I was there, Pre-BC was fucking terrible. While, yes, there were less morons raiding it was also boring as shit and WoW has only been getting better. You cannot honestly say that Molten Core was fun, can you? I mean it was so fucking bland it wasnt even funny. The best part of Vanilla was the AQ event and that was the only memorable part of it.
The game itself has certainly become more polished, which was my point above. WoW was already a greatly designed game, and just got better with each expansion. The community however, quickly deteriorated. Both on all the servers I played on and the community at large (namely the forums).
I just sincerely hope, because ToR is so storyline focused, that a lot of the jerkasses from WoW will stay where they are.
