Guys, I've been playing World of warcraft for 5 years.
Concept of the game is very good but game is quite old, video quality cannot match today's game, cant fully utilize my latest video card.
Is there any other game similar to this? I want to stop WoW for a while.

is the game contents is counted if u wanna play online games has best graphics it won't promise u would have nice content for example like guild wars graphics wise is superb but the game plays getting sucks everyday , it's good to take a break from wow and try plays single/multiplayer games consoles/pc till u puke then when new content in wow [WoD] started u an combeback and try out the new things , i've been playing online game almost 15 years over i know how stale is playing the same game over and over till u puke , relax and chill with other games bro

you forgot to add "in my humble opinion" to that sentence.
just because you think the "game play getting sucks everyday" does not mean everyone else thinks the same as you.

Informationiac
if you enjoy wow type game play, perhaps you may enjoy rift which may have similar game play mechanics to wow.

sry thats my terms u are right , sry should not bring up the name of the game haha

Thanks Heard of the game, will check it out more details.

runes of magic?

ive play shitload of mmorpg. guild wars 1 n 2, ragnarok 1 n 2, tera, warframe, ffxiv, swtor, and many more.. but nothing beats wow. ro2 raid system is ALMOST similar to wow but due to the bug and exploit, people left.

i quit wow right after lich king expansion came out due to uni. recently got back and it is still fun. the quest is even funnier in pandaria.

Which part of WOW do you like best? Is it the raiding, the pvp, or the questing?

First is the raiding and then auctions, and especially professions. You can make so much gold from it to auctions.
The most time taken for me when not raiding is leveling a professions and make epic items.
If you are bored you can do PVP with friends. and get PVP gear.
Not just about grinding same enemy all the time to get specific item.

I played RO, but i think is different in game concept.

If you are looking for organized raiding like WoW, you will not find that in GW2. What you get is open world boss that usually have about 30 ppl for smaller boss and over 100 for bigger scale boss.

PVP is very different as well since the BG is a 200vs200 siege battle.

And top tier items in GW2 is very very hard to craft compared to WoW and may take you weeks even months to do so. Gears are kind of equal to each other stat wise with ascended items being marginally better. Legendaries are just skins that looks awesome.

Try Final Fantasy XIV then w but for now PvP in FFXIV a little sucks, waiting on Frontline, a similar to GvG type, but not like GW2

The way FFXIV is setup is a little similar to WoW, and it should be easy enough for you to transition into the game without being control awkwardly.

i you like raiding then there's no other game out there that offers the same level of content. FFXIV raiding is a lot less engaging than WOW's.

this i agree, but that because the content on raiding is really low compare to giant wow w. so it may take time anyway.


CoB it self is the only End Game that is much engaging atm. ofcoz unless when ur already practice much. is simple. just like WoW.

WoW is the first game to have an instance raid and probably the most intricate and well designed raid ever. All the ones before it is just a zerg fest.

So WoW will never die and I believe they can only kill themselves.

good luck finding a WoW replacement for i have never succeed

well , I hate WOW as much as I love it . . . . . . . .
Lover for all the game play etc , hate for the sucks graphic and dying community . . . . . . .

didnt try FFXIV?

not interested.

aha,, hokay boss ^^

There is a common "problem" for certain people, where the first few MMO he played, will be the longest MMO he ever stayed with. And it's really hard to move away from it.

5 years, I will say, why don't take a break.
No I don't mean stop playing; but just play things for fun.

Pickup any games, have fun with it for a short time, if felt too repetitive at times, or the online community not suitable for yourself, then move on to others. Just play games casually.

Trying to find a perfect replacement for a game that you stick on for so many years, is, almost impossible. I tried, and fail.

you think WoW is boring ? think again this scene

Leeroy got nothing on this.

Yesss, you read me.. seems really impossible. There was one period I played average 12 hours a day non stop for every day for a month few months.
My friend wanted to take me out for rehab... meet friends. drinks. girls. find a life.... lol... well that was during the college days.

Now at least my job cut me down from playing too much.

totally missing my rogue:

i think any game where you have a group of friends that manage to beat group content without resorting to guides is a good starting point. There's no point in cheesing through content. The best experience comes from getting something done and hearing the shouts of joy over voip.

<--- LOL!

Runescape?

Maybe I need rehab lol

WoW is a great game. I played from 2005-2011. Despite lots of QQs and complaints and shits it is still very fun, especially if you've got raid and arena kaki.

But as I get older I find my play time get significantly lesser too and I just don't see how paying RM50 a month (also another RM15ish for tunneling service) is justifiable.

The only MMO I personally find that can hold their own against WoW is Guild Wars 2. It looks tonnes better than WoW. It improves on a lot of things I hated in WoW like group events and questing. I prefer GW2's pvp a lot more too, running while casting? Hell yeah. No silly obsolete mana system for casters too. And the talent system is just superior. Also it's a lot more fast paced.

No mob tagging. If you deal enough dps on a quest-related/important elite mob then you all will get credit for it and you don't even need to be in a group. No more camping for 10 minutes just to have someone else ninja the mob from you.

One very important point that I really like is that GW2 doesn't revolve around Healer-Tank-DPS system, hallelujah! Everyone have their own healing skills. No more "Group LF1M, healer. Group LF1M, Tank" spam.

WoW has awesome raids and GW2 has 0 raids. They have some guild missions that encourage guild activities but it's no raids. Arenanet did mention that they're working on it though.

I still miss a lot of WoW stuff while playing through GW2 though. Like, I miss fighting for mining nodes (in GW2, you, me and her can mine the same node and we all get the same number of ores). I miss having the need to hide from higher level opposing factions. Getting camp by them and stuff In GW2 there are no factions in PvE so you're very safe, other than from mobs.

I think it's easy to think of ideas on how to improve on old mechanics, but it's not easy to create, charm? I think WoW has more of that for me. I mean in 2005-2010 I only have one toon, ONE. Means I've only been through the leveling process once. All those years and I can still remember the maps, the little things and stuff. Elwyn Forest -> Westfall -> Redridge -> Duskwood (best map ever). Go get more progression for my toon in Arathi after that to gather some balls for STV. etc etc.

In GW2, I can't even remember the name of the 2nd map I visited. Everything is freaking pretty, the art is awesome, much better than WoW's but, WoW has more memorable stuff and quests. Not saying GW2 has bad leveling process or bad PvE, the journey is great and fun and have revolutionary mechanics but, doesn't feel quite like WoW's. Maybe I'm just feeling nostalgic, who knows.

But yeah I guess a monthly sub financial model MMO is a thing of the pass for me. Don't worry GW2 is not those pay-2-win bullcrap so it's all good.

Blizzard's next gen MMO is said to have the same model as GW2's so I'm kinda psyched about it.

I like what you have said.
Apart from the gaming experience and quality, One thing i like about Paid MMO is that subscribed players are majority matured and game chat or Vent speaking is about social life and not just about games. This is why is hard for me to quit WoW as I had met so many good friends internationally.

Like you did I can remember almost all the maps and dungeons in WoW. When I tried other MMO, my mind keep comparing it with what I had previously played and how I get use to the concept of the previous preferred game concept. That may be why I can't leave and commit into another game.

I am getting GW2 installing soon Hope that it changes my thoughts into another game concept.

and Yeah! hope blizzard can release the coming new model soon.

GW2

As we age, our play time gets lesser and lesser, from rushing for mmorpg levels / EQs, to my current state...stop playing MMO and started playing FPS / dota that is fast and don't need to keep leveling..

I'm also interested to know any game that..doesn't really matter much on EQ and level but more emphasize on skills and raiding..

for the skills part, so far, blade and soul done it pretty well.

but for the raiding, i have yet to find anything as interesting as RO guild war / WoW raid.

Well, funnily enough I've met a lot more spoilt bratty immature kids in WoW than GW2. I guess maybe because of the huge player base.
