I wouldn't blame WoW for that


WoW doesn't really have any original game concepts in it...


the reason they were so successful is they implemented concepts from multiple different mmo's and dumbed them down for the masses.


so saying WoW invented something is really lulzworthy imo...


not to take away from the game.. i appreciate WoW


it keeps retards out of MMO's i like to play.

I get it some on my ranger already, and she's only 19 so far. Curiously, these are usually the same people that don't know how to root park or aggro drag to split a multi-pull without FD, split up damage takers when the clerics are lom to reduce the pressure, etc. It's no wonder they don't appreciate hybrids.

At the same time, I've also found a few groups with some terribly awesome and friendly people, so at least it's worth staying on the server overall.

Someone explain to me what the link between WoW and this guy's post is.

Pointless eliteism is one of the hallmarks of the toxic cesspool of testosterone and ritalin that the WoW community has devolved into in the last couple years.

Lastly- supported, actually. We all know the classic mechancs, and (almost) all did the same grind back in the day, and are all smarter and better able to break down the game and encounters today. Hybrid penalties are really not called for in this environment; in classic, nobody even knew about them and it wasn't an issue. People know about them now, and it IS an issue, so for the truly classic experience you should remove them from consideration so players are evaluated on their merits and needed group roles instead. Also, it drives players away if they come here and get shat on, so the server pop will benefit in the long run.

Monks used optimally are in a crowd control role, not a dps role.

This.

I leave any game as soon as the bros/attitude/keyboard tough guys take over.

And that is why I'm never going back to wow, no matter how much I enjoy/ed the actual gameplay. Compared to that hive of scum and villainy, a few tards refusing to group with my ranger is bright and refreshing.
