I was WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY into it when I was ... Oh, I dunno, 12? 13 maybe?

And yet you played it not that long ago, and played it enough to get a character to around lvl 30? So you were interested in it at some point and obviously not when you were 12-13.

What's sad is, you and virtually everyone else on here, and probably the VAST majority of the "8 million" people who play that game have absolutley no idea what that statement truly means.

Enlighten us then?

Sad, really.

Blizzard basically put a fancy whistle-and-bells package on CircleMUD and sold it

Z game is just a copy of X game with Y added/modified. No shit sherlock... what does that have to do with anything? All games are that way. Starting w/the PnP games & Doom.

and made a killing off of it

And why do you think that is?

I'll take this as the Dogmeat-admits-he's-wrong-statement.

[Mommy]

no, that's his "your statement was too stupid to warrant a legitimate response" statement

[impala454]

No, because if he had some witty response with counterpoints he'd have responded with it.

[Mommy]

Im just going off how he has used that statement in the past... with others of course

No, what I'm saying is, you don't have a clue what YOU are talking about nor do you understand what I am talking about.

I can't really blame you, Jim, or anyone else for this, because unless you're an oldschool computer geek, you won't have any idea at all what a MUD game was, is, was like, or still is like, nor would you have any idea what it was like to completley dedicate your life to them in much the same fashion people do to WoW today. I started playing those games when I was about 10 or so and played them till I was about 15, and, like WoW, it was the single most addictive thing, as well as hugest waste of time, I've ever partaken in. WoW to me was incredibly nostalgic right down to running WoW glider with macros and whatnot to try and lighten up the mundane drudergy that "grinding" is.

Thank god I realized WoW for what it really was and stopped playing.

Again, as I've said, WoW is essentially a GUI front-end to an oldschool DikuMUD, CircleMUD, name your favorite engine MUD game. Given with the profitibility of the game, the resources available to Blizzard, etc, it's an incredibly fancy mud game, but still, at it's core, that's ALL it is.

It's a mud game. It plays ___EXACTLY___ like CircleMUD used to. There is virtually no difference in gameplay whatsoever, not even so much with PvP. The game is utterly pointless until you become a high level character doing PvP battles, as it always was with PK-enabled MUD games.

Essentially, WoW is the game every 12 year old kid in the late 80's and early 90's playing CircleMUd wished they had, because it had a cool GUI and music and whatnot and wasn't entirley text based...

But, as I'll say again, even with the fancy schmany graphics, the game at it's core plays so much like CircleMUD at one point I seriously couldn't tell any difference at al between logging back into a mud game and just reading text as opposed to looking at neat cartoons on the screen.

No, because if he had some witty response with counterpoints he'd have responded with it.

When you're so phenomenally clueless about what you are talking about, let alone what I'm talking about, it is a waste of time for me to even respond, even though I did, AGAIN, saying the same things I've said 100x in this thread alone, which apparently is entirley too much for your mind to grasp.

Hence why you are an idiot.

Ok, everyone cut down on the personal attacks/name-calling please.
