Excellent reasons. I personally could not have said any more than that myself a few months back. Exact same reasons too.
Now, I've played GW, and I did converse extensively with a man named Konrad who did quit WoW for a bit and went to GW. He was satisfied by the ambiguity of the skill arrangement, but he was a bit disappointed by the lacking of, and I shit you not, jumping ability in GW. Also, only going to 20 was a bit of a turnoff. Levels can be a way to surmise the skill level of a player. Level 70? Madness!!! Level 71? HAX! level 3? Pathetic!
On the other hand, warping to main cities in a goddamn second is like... It blows the mind. Truly it does. I have a theory that WoW is designed to waste tons of time. And it is proven every time I log on.
And Sarcasm, for FFA in Star Craft, I believe Big Game Hunters is considered cannon by myself and friends, but lost temple (maybe...?) is good for 2-4 players. Of course, there's also "$$FASTEST MAP EVERRR!!!!!!$$*Updated by Limonade Clownzor! etc...." which has the minerals right next to the base and the goddamn Vespene Geysers close by, and in stacks of 4. That is insane. I had the first 2 to 3 minutes of Zerg production down to a science. I'm not one to Zerg rush, I've seen the Korean vids where that tactic's just trumped by SCV's and Probes. I usually go lurker Defensive, but one of my friends goes Terran and just ComSat sweeps or whatever (the non-nuke attachment). Ehh, I really should play that. After I sleep...
Can you believe "Zerg" isn't in the Firefox dictionary? What a crime!
I got back into the Lore of the Warcraft universe, by the by, so now I'm beating Warcraft 3 on "hard". Cues make RTS a fuckload easier. Starcraft still owns.
Eh...I have been told that I am allowed $200 on a debit card. I only get any more money by doing that...
chore business I am so very un-fond of. And lots, too. So I really must consider whether or not to get the keyboard, because it's DAMN useful for ...well, anything by Blizzard.
And with that, I close with the following. Once I get back into WC3, I think I'll play a little
DoTa.
(The concept of him just bursting into song makes me laugh. Also, I wish Swedish chicks would suck on thumbs while watching gamers play at LANs. I truly do. Tell me it's true, Tele. Please!)
