    Well, now what?

    WoW, as of MoP. It's shitty design and someone will get fired over it when subs tank again.

    'Tedious' not 'punishing', and 'a few' not 'a lot', but otherwise correct.

    Buying a car?

    Sort of irrelevant now, but that's notalwaystrue. If you're looking at a BMW dealer they often don't want some non-prestige, volume car sat on their forecourt - it's taking up space that they could use to sell another BMW. Even if it's a perfectly solid car they'll frequently want to get rid of...

    Yeah, and it was full of antis and people wearing mostly nodrop gear who bagged everything else as soon as they saw another player.

    Yeah, it's a saurok - a member of a lizardman slave-race magically shaped and created by a now-fallen evil empire, which then rebelled against its creators in a civil war. Nothing at all like the iksar. (Although they do look like sarnak too - possibly whythis chapis named what he is).

    Guild Wars 2

    That's all they have left. They hate WoW (because it's successful and casual-orientated) and so they keep building up each new MMO launch as The Next Big Thing, one after the other. Because if there isn't a Next Big Thing, a WoW-killer then that means that maybe WoW earned its success after all...

    Well, now what?

    Look back at the character screenshots. As to why a female character? I like playing rare race/class(/gender) combos and, well, how many female erudite SKs were there onyourserver? This would be a good idea, except for the fact that there would have to be averygood reason to pay anything...

    Well, now what?

    If by that you mean "everyone gave up making news MMOs half a dozen years ago" then you'd be right. You used the correct word - 'industry' - and what happens to investment in industry when profits are not at acceptable levels?

    Well shit, now look what you went and made me do: April 20th, 2000? Wait, wait, wait. They only added Erudite SKs in the patch prior to Kunark's launch. Let's see if my original character is still kicking around somewhere.... Is April 6th, 1999 sufficiently old-school for you, or do...

    No, Verant were reallythat badat game design in the beginning. Warriors and rangers were functionally equivalent at tanking, for instance, and then rangers had all their spells and abilities on top. They started patching that fairly quickly (increasing warrior HP at least twice, and so on) but...

    Humans (& Forsaken + Worgen), Dwarves, Gnomes, Troggs, Vrykul, and Grummles are all errant Titan-built robots cursed by Old Gods. Night elves, high/blood elves, satyr and harpies are all mutant trolls. Goblins may or may not be mutant trolls as well.
