[quote name='RedvsBlue'][quote name='killswitch64']I am debating if I should pick this up or not. I love Warcraft but hated Everquest.[/quote]
Don't worry this is nothing like everquest. What I like about WoW is that it is accomadating to the casual gamer. Giving you an XP bonus for killing monsters after taking a break, making soloing possible, its just plain FUN.[/quote]
Seconded, this game is nothing like EQ. Unlike EQ, WoW is actually FUN, you can solo, level, and complete quests without waiting on a party too. People party in this game because they want to, not because they have to. EQ style forced grouping, IMO sucks.
Also, there is no experience loss when you die! Hallelujah! So you can duel other players, take on higher level monsters just for the challenge, or try dieing/exploring odd spots in the game without any risk. I've seen players of my opposite faction make characters in game just to run them to the enemy's auction house/bank just to leave thier corpses on the ground for giggles. I've streaked my character naked through an enemy city just for kicks and have even jumped off a mountainside to see if my hunter pet would follow me to his death too.
