[…] Maiev discussed PvE in one of her recent Entries on theStarOnion. To an extent I agree. Once you figure out something in this game, it becomes a rinse-and-repeat […]

I just dont like wow since it’s alot pvp oriented…….I dont like pvp. I always sucked in pvp and I dont have any interest about it.
Thet’s why you will NEVER see me doing ballista or those kind of areas.
People become mad while be able to mpk, I can be happy without it…….
I played WOW a bit maybe 2 years ago, PVP servers are nerve wracking… Always an unfair advantage with rogues who can disappear and kill you in a few hits. Kinda rough trying to finish a quest.
You’re going to make me log back in and start farming for my mount again. :3 I haven’t logged to WoW in a few weeks with business in RL and FFXI, and then there is the crack that is Pokemon Pearl (yes, sadly, I gotta catch em all…). :(
I would try out WoW, but something that makes me wary is the playerbase. I hear FFXI’s playerbase is reasonably tame/friendly vs. that of other games (especially WoW). If its not as bad as people say it is on WoW, I might give it a try if I have enough money. D;
I’m loving this post, seeing as how I’ve gotten to the point where I no longer go “eew, it’s different, so it’s bad” when looking at WoW and FFXI. I doubt you will change many people’s minds about it, seeing as how most hardcore FFXIers are set in their ways, but for the rest of us, it’s very entertaining.
There are many things that WoW does better, and you did a great job outlining them. I just still lament the lack of Priest on Gnomes, and that you CAN’T go and “recyle your Ridill”. I hate making a new character every time I want to test out a new job. :(
And Jowah, I am exactly like you. I don’t play on a PVP server, I would get too frustrated. However, I do enjoy popping a random low level moron that’s forgot to turn his PVP flag off in STV. :P
Its a great topic this, good job!
Its funny how WoW players see FFXI players as so zealous. I dont really know where this came from. I think t may be that as WoW is such a mass market success, it reaches the “casual” players (gad I hate that term) less likley to obsess over a virtual world. Anyway.
I would never state that FFXI is better than WoW so blankly. I simply prefer it 100% The thing that binds me above all to FFXI over WoW (besides gameplay mechanics) is the fact that Vanadiel feels.. real. It has a solid history. Its locations make geographical sence, affected by so many catastrophes. You see the scars when you walk through areas to another. Everything is there for a reason. Aside from Porrogo’s.
I get the feeling always, that Vanadiel existed before the servers went life. We were just warped from our real world to visit this alternate place. Its quite a nice feeling ^^
Verisimilitude. Suspension of disbelief. Works wonders when dealing with fiction lol.
WoW for some reason never got me hooked in. I never felt like it was authentic and beleivable. The references to other workd of fiction/irl topics is a little corny to my sence of humor too.
Wow seems like this is some interesting topic to write :) but honestly WoW’s great in a different aspect ^^; I have to agree.
and again I’m Berrie’s follower again :( at first its blog now video game lol :)
where is the pic of my seggsi orc wtfpwnage?
Im a long time FFXI player and i reside on Odin. I’ve never played wow but i know plenty of people who do. In my humble opinion, id like to see square make areas that are pvp. It would be even juicier if NMs popped here that dropped some uber haste gear or multi attack weapons that would make the speed of battles something more like wow. You and your ls buddys would try to fight everyone off to get claim on the NM. I think if this were to happen, wow comparisons would become a thing of the past. And besides, when you consider the time it takes do devolop an FFXI character, dont we deserve to at least fight each other over some gear to speed things up?
Well well well .. looky what we have hereeeeeeeee … I know you all remember me .. esp you jeff! Anyways .. switching over from wow FFXI to WoW might have been the best thing i ever did .. PVP and PVE same time = amazing .. stop hating on PvP just because you are teh suck at it … improve at it maybe ? practice? no one is superman once they step foot on battlegrounds in wow till they’ve played a while .. its quite simple actually .. when you first did HNM’s were you god? Exactly .. if you put the time in .. theres no reason you wouldnt be good … I play a rogue .. yes im hated by everyone on server lol .. rogue is ridiculously fun .. i play a 70 orc shaman to .. both decked out gear in PVP and PVE world play … all in all .. WoW shits on FFXi hands down sorry … cant even put the 2 in same category.
P.S. Maiev x-fer over to my server with whoever you are playing with! If your’e on a PVE server your gay! I will post video’s for you all to observe since maiev is noob
