Actually, I couldn't find another thread to grumble in so I opted to borrow this one. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">

*whispers*

I like butter cookies best.

I heard that FFXI was a console game. Actually I hear all the FF games were console games so, I wouldn't know much about them other than they are RPGs and very popular ones at that.

FFXI looks like any generic MMORPG out there (unlike WoW's uniquness). And there are thousands upon thousands of bots running around ("botters" as they are called) and square (or the company that makes it) doesnt bother to do anything to fix this problem by changing the scripting code (like Blizzard's done so many times to stop the famous fishing bot/gatherer bots). FFXI's service isnt its downfall -- its all the bots running around that is.

? quoting omegaslayer

(unlike WoW's uniquness).

I know WoW is popular and I haven't played it enough to be sure but I trust my sons judgment on this and he has played both but Guildwars he says beats WoW all to hell.

Now, he also says that its like comparing Hammer to UnrealEd. Both do the same thing, but in totally different ways.

He says since he played GuildWars first, he is vastly more familiar with it and thinks WoW is so basackwards to it that he just cannot enjoy it.

Plus he mentions that there is just to f**king much running from here to there in WoW.

Searching out your body in ghost form or somesuch royally pissed him off.

Anyway, he says GuildWars is better and I believe him.

When I said uniquness I meant the style in which the games are. Just look at pictures above without looking at the links. Tell me which one stands out in terms of their own style? In my opinion the first two look remarkibly the same (like morrowind and any other FP RPG) while the third looks different than the other two.

But I do understand what your son is saying, a lot of the quests are FedEx quests, and that tends to get boring really fast.

I played WOW, and to be honest, it does alot of the same crap the others do. DAOC had most of the stuff WOW has before WOW was even conciderd. I feel like im in a Warner Brothers Cartoon, and I keep waiting for some roadrunner to run by and a coyote to go spat near by when im in game. Wow also get real boring fast..

But yes they do look similure.. but FFXI were one of the first to use awesome graphics to display its world in fantastic detail.
