Default Lame RL Moment

Here I am sitting in my cubicle enjoying my hoagie... And, in the next cubicle over I here a group of guys talking about WoW and how it 'invented the 3D MMORPG' and singing its praises...

I lost my apitite. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I'm a fag for letting their love of WoW annoy me... But, I just say there fuming about how wrong they were.

Now, there is a lot of debate out there about what ruined EQ Live. Most folks seem jaded by Luclin and beyond... I can't help but to feel a big part of what ruined it for me was EQ became dedicated to copying WoW and other MMORPGs and quit being an innovator.

First let me say I agree about the later statement. Once EQ started grasping at WoW players to get them to return, as well as always cocksucking the raid guilds, is when it died. I'm going to be blunt and honest (and put up my anti-madfag shield) when I say that had Luclin not released new graphics i'm certain 95% of the people that believe Luclin killed EQ would not be making that same claim right now...

Second. Whoever said WoW built the MMORPG genre, you need to punch them in the neck.

I thought Meridian 59 invented the 3D MMO.

The only previous MMO experience I have is Diablo 2.

Even me, yes me, a WoW person Knows EQ was first in the 3D awesomeness. The first time I ever saw EQ I thought I lost my virginity, oozing, seeping, bone dry afterwards. I love em both but EQ has a certain nostalgia about it, a Originality. WoW is great, but EQ is Great too.
