It's sincerely cool that there's going to be some kind of system to upgrade your villa that can only be achieved through world PVP. And no flying mounts too,

I'm torn on the no flying mounts. Exploring in vanilla was extremely cool and it's a shame that it's basically gone with you can just fly everywhere. On the other hand a lot of the zones blizzard designed to be done without flight are pretty bad. I'm hopeful that they can do a good job in Warlords of Draenor, though.

Yeah but MMO players don't view MMOs as a game, they view it as a life replacement, see Star Citizen.

MMOs can be and have been good but FF14 is not one of those games

try going back to an old school UO shard where the experience of playing the game was unique and fun. it was like being thrown into a junkyard with a bunch of other people and basically told to have fun and work your poo poo out if you had any problems. people got their feelings hurt and their shitholes rebuilt but who cares? if you never want to have your feelings hurt or your poo poo ruined there's already a genre out there for you, it's called the jrpg.

FF14 and WoW and every other tired loving everquest wannabe is more like being thrown into a preschool playground where everything is made out of padded foam so nobody gets hurt and there are rules plastered on everything and if you break a rule everyone else in 100 feet of you starts screaming bloody loving murder until you get taken away by the gestapo

eve comes closest to being good because the game lets you do effectively whatever you want. of course that's not even good because you spend dozens of hours pissing into your own mouth before you can actually do anything fun or play the game so whoops they hosed it up too

Some games are lesser than others. You can't hide behind the Games forum boogeyman to defend your bad taste.

Liking things indiscriminately regardless of quality is a trait of the normie. Here in the zone we should be cultivating more remind tastes than "sucking actual, literal fecal matter off the floor."

My favorite thing about him is that he probably has no idea of what an MMO actually is, he just read some other post on the Imp Zone calling them bad and now he desperately wants to fit in. I think he should go back to posting about extremely weird anime and getting probated.

Agreed. I enjoy playing video games. For example, I don't enjoy sports video games (there are some exceptions of course, NFL Blitz on the N64 is epic), but if I see someone who enjoys them I respect them as a fellow gamer and go on with my life.

There's bad people in the communities but for the most part the players don't flip their poo poo in every game.

You do see it more often than in most other games but that's because you're playing with 10 people at a time and those games have a lot of loving time to type, they also take at least 20 minutes a match. I imagine if CS had has much downtime as mobas do you'd see it there too. I mean poo poo, watch random streams of people playing any game and they're screaming at their monitor.

That's not really a moba in the normal sense of the term is it? I thought it was more of a co-op thing but maybe I'm remembering it wrong because I only played it once when I was super drunk and did very poorly.
