wow poll

I can live with 10 euro a month. Its like 3-4 rental movies where I live.. And I can spend way more time in wow in that time than those movies would last.

Try Guild Wars. It's free to play online. Just have to buy the game itself. I agree with you though.:sigh: ------------------------------------- Do not do what has already been done. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.. but it ROCKS absolutely, too.

I played it for a while. Got to level 34... however found it too repetitive and time-consuming. Great game though if you have plenty of spare time.

I can't see what is the attraction in wow. Some of my friends play it WHENEVER they have free time. I watched them play, and saw this: Walk around beating things up at a lower level than yourself so that you can gain more levels. Walk around avoiding being beaten up by people at a higher level. Everyone wants to be the strongest. (DBZ here we come) What happens when your at the strongest level? I dont know but I guess no-one will want to take you on, you'll have nobody to play with. I would like to give it a try and prove myself wrong, unfortunately I don't have broadband at home.

I don't. I never have. I used to play AoE2, but I don't have a PC anymore. :( Cheers, Vikram.

yeah, i know about the price, but it's too expensive !!! look, you give 10€ a month, but becomes 120€ per year !!! and so much if you continue playing like that for long time... no really, i can't stand with games that request to pay each months to play. i'm ok to pay the game, ok to buy an extra license to play online, but once it is paid, it should be enough.

NWN

As in THE Neverwinter Nights? Got that a few months back. Installed it. Created a character and talked to the first guy. That's about all I had time for:sigh: However, I have gotten almost half way in Resident Evil 4 on my Gamecube. Guess blowing zombies away with shotguns is more fun that chopping them up with swords for me:laugh: ------------------------------------- Do not do what has already been done.

I have it on CD, but I dont play it. I guess it should be interesting , but I prefer to sleep or do other things these days instead of starring at the monitor for hours (catching up with age :(). But I've seen the cinematics of WarCraft, that's really Awesome. Excellent graphics. An update on your Favourite game.^;) I love AOE2 forever.

At the game developers conference I was happy to not be involved in one WOW conversation. Now that I am back at BioWare, every morning in the lunch room there is a conversation about some raid somewhere dropping something. :/ Tim Smith I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

The more scary thing is, you can pay a "company" (usually based in India or China) to play for you to get you to a specific level (e.g. 34). So I don't think that anyone will ever get to be the strongest for too long :) "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.

Lost it in a battle with the Hittites? Too few Trebuchets? :-D -- Rog

It's supposed to be hard, otherwise anybody could do it!

Stuart van Weele

Real geeks would be hacking it to find all the exploits and cheats. I read web comics and play with Blender in the little spare time I have.

Doctor Nick

So the people at BioWare play Blizzards games for fun? :~ ------------------------------------- Do not do what has already been done. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.. but it ROCKS absolutely, too.

Never have, and do not plan on it in the future.

Never played it. I have played FFXI, got addicted, got bored, almost deleted my account, but by then I met some online friends (well one) that make me keep my account. Of course, I've considered deleting my account and just using good ol' email. The only two bad things about those games are it's really repetitive and the people are extra dorky (like they've never seen a real girl before). I can't stand conversing with most of them.
