You do realize that people playing one game tend to talk down other games? Whenever other games are in beta or get released (including GW2), I see plenty of people in chat talking about how bad those games are and how they quickly got bored of the game or left SWTOR for 2 weeks and then came back. If you're worried about what other gamers think of the game you like to play, then it's time to grow a spine.

1. It's Blizzard.

2. WoW is dumbed down as it can be. Dumb downed games appeal to the most people, hence why niche games remain niche.

3. After a while people have a hard time leaving once they invested so much time and money into it. Especially if they made friends in it.

I could go on but it would be wasted on you.
So it has nothing to do with the fact that the game is a good game, and brings a lot to the table for the players eh?
Some people will argue anything just to not admit to something.

Except the game is just WoW with a star wars skin for the most part. Why should WoW players leave for another game and start all over without their friends?

Idiots....

"good" is subjective. To you, it may not be but it obviously is good to a lot of people.

For the record, I've never played it.

And oddly they have millions of subscribers still after all these years, and is one of the last remaining MMOs on the market which hasn't been forced to move towards a Free to Play model to support their game.

I'll bet you think Amazon is just some crappy online shopping portal that no one likes either eh?

LOL, ty for showing everyone how pathetic and lack of brains WoW defenders are.

Nice strawman.

But hey, keep on defending the most dumb downed MMO game ever, one that also ruined the entire genre. Just like CoD did with FPS.

You would jump off a bridge if a bunch of people did it. You = joke.

As Spock would say, "Illogical, given the current evidence."

I don't play WoW, but know enough of the financial reports to say that it can't be objectively bad if it still has as many subs as it does and still rakes in the amount of money that it does and still puts out the large expansions that it does.

I personally find Halo to be over rated, but I cannot deny that it is one of the best selling game series of all time.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
