Several serious gamers and one hilarious noob

[GeneticJen]

Might only be funny to people who have played WoW at some point in the past. I'll share anyway because it made me giggle.

[Rum]

Played it for four years and still do now and again (sad I know). Still makes me giggle!

[GeneticJen]

I played it on and off a few years ago but haven't touched it in ages. Then I started EVE which is a lot more serious, but got bored.

LEEEEEROY!

Never got on with Eve. I tried it for a week or two, but I just seemed to be spending all my time in a tiny spaceship mining asteroids. Perhaps I wasn't patent enough.

I know exactly what you mean. I was a pirate though, so my time was a little more interesting than mining ("give me the money before I pop you"), but people who've played for a long time are involved in massive real-time tactical wars and it's really quite impressive. It's just such a time-hog though, which is the main reason I don't play any MMORGs now.

EVE does have one great thing going for it: Cut-throat gaming. PVP fighting and PVP industry/economics. So many of the MMORGS are nice and safe, but in EVE you could be blown to bits by someone just because they were bored. And that makes pirating a real threat.

A perfect example of why I always solo-ed when I played WoW. Far too many idiots playing the game.

Heh.. This is like one of the first wow videos ever made

[The Curious Squid]

I've never played it but that made me laugh, the other guys are taking it too seriously.

Same. I chatted with friends while playing, but mostly solo-ed. Then I realised I was paying a subscription to play a game with millions of idiots, and then avoid them. That was enough for me.

I had no idea how old the video was. I only saw it for the first time yesterday.

This has become an internet phenomena. If one fucks up in a game it is quite often referred to as "Pulling a Leeroy".

Thanks for that.

Just shows you that although I played the game, I wasn't really involved with the community at all. Didn't visit any WoW websites or anything. I looked him up and apparently he's a bit of a celebrity now.

Is WOW what people did before Rationalia ?

[leo-rcc]

I've played about 2 hours with a free account from trywarcaft.com. I just never got into it.

[AshtonBlack]

Never liked the combat system. The graphics were too cutesy. Most people on the PvP server I played on were idiots.

I prefer my Fantasy RPGs to be solo. (Dragon Age:Origins or Oblivion, for example.)
