Lotro for me by a landslide. Not a big fan of meaningless pvp.

DAoC was truly great minus the botters. Warhammer has nothing and to me felt dead in comparison.

For anyone with any responsibilities outside in the real world this 300 hours is not an issue. Those of us with jobs and families are lucky to get 30 hours a month.

Guess that really depends on how long it has been since you have had food.

However, a first person view makes it very difficult to attach to your character, which is an important part of many RPGs.

 

I disagree.  From my gaming experience, in the first person view, you feel like you ARE you character.

As far as wanting to see your armor, they could have a little side panel that shows that as you play.  But to see the game world through your eyes kind makes you feel like you are there.

Try it. Use the mouse wheel in WOW or some game and scroll up to first person view and see how different the world seems.

I have tried it and I don't like it. I prefer 3rd person.

Have to disagree. I prefer third person I want to play my character in the game. If I want a 1st person experience i will go outside.

I would go with WoW or wait for something new. EQ died to me after the scars of velious expansion.

I have no probelm with it. I don't care if they drop it to 200

Least I wasn't the only person.  I really wanted to like the game but it just was missing something.

Not sure I was on Phoenix Throne and the RP was hit or miss but after my 30 days I had to cancel there was just something missing.

Well unfortunately some people have not been raised very well.

I choose mix. I love wide open worlds but  I also love a great and epic storyline quest. Though I get the feeling that some people want sandbox FFAPVP and I would never go that route. Only game I ever enjoyed any form of pvp was in DAoC.

I quit the game after my free 30 days. The lag was bad some nights but that was to be expected with a new game but to me it just felt dead to me for some reason i just could not get into it. I wish what players are there the best but it just was not for me.

 Don't really care. I just wish they would give me  a long and epic quest line to get lost in. I don't need raid gear as I don't like raiding and never have in WoW in 4 years I have yet to meet one raiding community in wow that i did not treat it like a second job. So give me my small group content or even solo quest chain to occupy my time. Does not have to equal raid gear but should look different to show I'm a explorerer/quester rather than raider.

Good for them. I really don't care if i ever see it. Even if I ever go back to WoW I see no point in raiding. If it takes more than 5 people other than pvp I find no enjoyment in it. I enjoyed doing some raiding in EQ but the WoW raiding community really turned me against the whole raiding culture.

Honestly to me the world just felt dead. I didn't feel like I was in a world more like I was just standing around waiting to do scenarios.

Good luck getting your stuff back. My old guildleader was hacked and lost everything on all of his 70s and they told him sorry about your luck.

I'm glad they are focusing on a story. I love doing quests and getting involved in a storyline.

I agree it is truly sad. I can't imagine have so little to do in RL that in a matter of days I would level to 80.

Truly sad. Players like him make all gamers look like no life antisocial basement dwellers.  I pity him.
