Hey does anyone know any really good mmorpg's? I dont really play any because I usually dont understand what I'm supposed to do and lose interest pretty quick.
WoW has saved me tons of cash in games... The way I see it, the time I spend playing the game also lengthens the life of all my other games, so I don't have to buy new ones that often. Picked up Lost Odyssey about 2 months ago. I play it maybe an hour a night, sometimes I skip a night if I'm not in the mood, and whereas normally with an addictive JRPG I'd have it done in a week, I'm still only half way through disc 3 of 4.
Had I finished it in the week, I'd have bought Blue Dragon at the full retail price of €59.99. Since then the pre-owned price of it has dropped to €19.99. I picked it up pre-owned, perfect copy, saved €40.00. 2 months of WoW costs €30.00.
After another week I'd have finished Blue Dragon and moved onto Grand Theft Auto 4 (yes I'm a bit behind the times but whatever, at least there's DLC and patches out by the time I pick the games up), another week... it goes on and on. Not going to pick up Fable 2 (which is released tomorrow) until sometime next May at this rate.
Overall I'm up quite a bit of cash which I've put into a little find I like to call my 'Technological Advancement Fund', or TAF... sometimes nicknamed TAFfy. Everyone loves taffy. That fund has built my current PC and is currently sitting at a nice tidy sum for my transition to Nehalem and X58. Can't wait.
Agree with the above, WoW subby costs yes, but it saves you in other areas as well. No longer am i buying games that cost 40 quid and last for 6 hours.
WoW is the best value gaming you can possibly get, but it sucks up a LOT of your time.
