A writer from the One More Level gaming blog explains why he's not really into MMO's.
Blizzard Entertainment has announced the opening of beta registrations for “World of Warcraft: The War Within,” inviting players to explore new subterranean worlds beneath Azeroth.
Danish from eXputer: "Despite Blizzard's attempt to give a fresh new spin to World of Warcraft, some fans still seem to be stuck in the past."
HG writes: "Blizzard is usually pretty bad at keeping secrets, but the company somehow managed to keep this one under wraps until now. Plunderstorm is a special limited-time event that’s basically World of Warcraft’s take on the Battle Royale genre."
Basically this person is staying away from MMO's for fear of severe "MMO addiction"! Well i can't be mad at that! Wouldn't want you neglecting yourself or anyone around you cause you couldn't stop playing a game cause it unfortunately does happen.
But on the the flipside............."Wan na play Guild Wars 2"? Come on man don't be a wuss! Everybody is doing it! It's what ALL the cool people will be playing and you wanna be cool right?
I've never played an MMO because when I watch gameplay online it looks a bit tedious with inventory and what not. I'm now getting into PC gaming and I am not really that big of an RPG guy. I do however have interest in maybe tryin out SWTOR as I am a Star Wars fan. If I do play an RPG it would have to be along the lines of Oblivion or better yet The Witcher 2. I'm trying to broaden my palete so to speak, but one thing that gripes me is fhe games where you choose an action and then the player does it i.e. final fantasy. I believe you call that turn based RPG. I rather an action RPG. Maybe I'll give it a try to see if I can get into it.
