End result =crushing defeat for all other games. 

Results in more haters due to their games getting crushed like the little ants they are.

End of discussion, now move along.

 

EXAMPLE OF THIS, check sony station acess games to find the suck ass games there.

hardly a game sadly LOTR is gonna be the exact same except characters move like quasimodo in that game really...

and how do they find out how old people who play these games are? they ask? how many kids want to admit their 5-10 years old when everyone in their alliance is like 20-25yrs old? even on the internet people dont give their real age. look at myspace look at some peoples pages. it says their like 46 and their pictures show a 8 yr old.

WoW's community does have alot of angry 10 year olds. and ontop of that you have the 20-40 yr olds that only care about loot and grind quests. and what level you are. 

Blizzard has added alot of stuff to try and keep gamers interested. just proof that WoW is  not taht great. if they have to add things to make people like it.(im sure other games were probably like that.). and once you pass level 60 its boring. pvp is uninteresting. quests are not fun.

i tried to play WoW and after i installed it. no lie. 2 mins into the game. some guy comes up to me and says "HEY YOU NOOB GET OUT OF THE GAME YOU DONT BELONG HERE NOOB." then continued to say "NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB"..over and over again. since i hadent quite figure out the whole friends and ignore list thing. it was about 5 mins before i finaly ignored him. i finally just turned off chat. i did my first quest and then i was bored. i uninstalled the game and broke the cd. i had to wash myself clean of the WoWness in my shower.

WoW, from a first hand experience, sucks. not the game, the interior of the game. the community, the people, the guy that called me a noob, the items, the graphics, the grind quests, the linear story(from what ive heard), the joke end game, the terrible customer service, the "noob noob noob" comments from other players, the 24 paged threads it genereates, and the looters.

all those things make me hate WoW. i'd rather go play a game thats free to play and has better graphics and a better community, and a non linear story. for example Guild Wars. its free nice community, and a non linear story. infact im going to play it right now...

i'll probably never give WoW another chance.

bye all have fun with your low graphic lives.

Another reason for the amount of animosity at WoW is because the game has redined the MMORPG genre. 

Whether or not you like the game, there is no denying that the history of MMORPGs will be marked by the pre-WoW and post-WoW eras.

Some people don't like how the genre is changing to appeal to more gamers so many hate WoW because of that and long for the 'good old days' when MMORPGs were considered a niche market by the rest of gaming industry and something of a joke.

WoW has redefined nothing. how can you redefined something thats been done before. WoW is nothing new. and pre WoW and post WoW eras? that just sounds stupid im pretty sure history will ignore this games. its not like its payed attention to any other games in the past. except pong. since pong was the father of all games. but theres not going to be some WoW history couse when i go to college i can say that much. it sounds to me like you like WoW alittle too much.

and people missing the good old days? all of those people have left mainstream games and moved down to runescape. thats where all the oldies are. either that or their playing eq2. most people like the direction the market is goin in. now people can relate to more people online. instead of having level 70 paladin nerds(u kno with the zit covered faces, countless anime novels, and pictures of dragons covering their binders) fill your ears with mumbo jumbo that you dont understand. now the game industry is for every one. WoW didnt do this. other games did this. games that came before it(cant name any examples upfront). but im sure that someday there will be a better game that will come along and whoop WoW's ass. god knows when it will come. i hope it comes soon though. because like any good mmo WoW will get boring. no matter how much you deny it. it will get old. and something new will have to come along.

but if thats really what you think then dude you need to get out more.
