Wow versus War
I love the Warhammer universe. I have been an avid player of the various table top miniature games as well as the couple RPG games in the same universe. So when Warhammer Online came out a year ago, I was stoked!
I figured it would be pure liquid awesome and finally give me a computer version of the game world I have enjoyed playing in for so long.
Of course I was let down quite a bit in that the game was lacking.. but I get ahead of myself.
When I learned that Warhammer online was licensed to Mythic Entertainment, I was less than thrilled. Their only other game of note is Dark Age of Camelot which was a one trick pony (realm versus realm combat) that has no long term play associated with it.. And while the game is still around, it’s just not fun. There is nothing there to keep players like me playing the game.. I just don’t enjoy it nor does it have the massive fan base that it could have if they had bothered to keep innovating.
WoW on the other hand has gobs and gobs of things to do long term as well as lots of mindless achievements and other end game elements to keep players attention. They are adding new content and new fun things to the game all the time and this is from a guy who really doesn’t like WoW..
