It really isn’t that Massive.

One thing I’ve always find myself thinking is,: Is a mmorpg really necessary?

Don’t get me wrong here, I enjoy playing online role-playing games with my friends. Because that’s most of the times the only thing you do.

An MMORPG , an “ Massive” Multiplayer online role-playing game , they are really not that massive , not even in a crowded town or raid.
I think it sums up to about 20 to 30 people tops, unless by massive they meant the environment. So correct me if I’m wrong. But what I am trying to say is that it just as good could be a Offline-game on Lan Mode, because in 80% of the cases you won’t interact with the other players, because either they are just plain idiots, jerks and/or just ignore you all together or don’t even speak proper English.

I don’t know about other people but, I only play MMO’s with friends and sometimes with players who cross our path and know how to be civil and cool

Putting the Iron in Irony

If there’s one thing I’ve been wondering and is ticking me off , it’s the loot you get for other classes , I’ve played many MMO’s and in almost every MMO it’s the same.

Varendiel gains [ Arcane boots of the hare ]

Woo! I finally found gear! .. but wait , it’s not for my warrior class, it’s for an mage.
No problem , magicians need clothing too right? So after slaughtering some more monsters.

Varendiel gains [Electric Staff of Vanity]

Woohoo! More booty, but crap it’s mage equipment again? Crap.

So I thought I just had bad luck, and logged out and made a mage.

Alright, let the gear drop baby!

Voltburn kills fire Imp.
Voltburn gains [ Valor platemail of the Agile ]

Holy Chestnuts! Are they freaking serious!?

And it continued like that, no matter what class you took, the loot you find is always the opposite of your class.
