As you can tell, I'm new to the game, under the name minitanterium. I've been playing for a month now, this is my second character that I started, him being a lvl 7 WHM Taru.
I just downloaded the WOW stress test and I notice a very very large difference in this game and that game.
This game seems to be so player driven, with a newb like me able to find and recieve help almost immediately after asking for it. Just today I needed a escort and I found someone who brought me, free of charge from Sandy to Windy. Things like that make this game great and fun no less. I thought I'd become a big player in the game eventually, but lately I've realized my path probably will be to find a decent level and become a mentor or helper towards the newbs taht come in later down the line.
Enter WOW however, and the scene changes. When I logged on, to two different servers, I found nothing but swearing, put-downs and things that just killed the game. Newbs were ridiculed, people were greedy, and just by that initial impression I found that I probably will not pay for WOW and stay with FFXI.
Just though I'd share my thoughts with you,
Thanks for being a great server Bismark!
