The newer MMOG's are too 'noob friendly'. If you ever played Everquest back in the day you would understand what i mean by this. It just seems in the newer MMOG's a lot of the players are mainly children as a lot of people that play are very imature. This is especially true in my experiences of playing WoW. I made 4 level 70 characters. First a hunter which i started raiding with and eventually got quite bored, the raid content just seemed dull in comparison to some of the epic raid battles in EQ. I decided to roll a new character, this time a mage, i got to end game and got bored again. Same again with a rogue and finaly a shadow priest. I eventually ended up leaving WoW for good because of boredom. I wouldnt go back to WoW even if the subscription was free. Im back on Everquest now and while its not as popular as it used to be and the graphics are very dated, im still enjoying it as much as i did the first time. I wish i had never left EQ in the first place. The best thing about EQ for me is that it seems to be more an MMOG for grown ups.

The grouping still annoys me - it's probably because I'm just not used to it, but it seems so flipping chaotic. EQII is great in that I can just target through the tank. Not so in WoW. I think that's what makes grouping so hard for me to get used to. Everything seems to happen so fast and I don't know who I should be killing, etc. I loved EQII, but I haven't even logged in to play during the free period of the living legacy promotion. I'm not even sure the upcoming expansion will be able to bring me back. We'll see. RoK really killed that game for me. I am liking WoW more and more as time goes on.

How the heck am I going to raid? I really have no concept in WoW on how to work in a group because I’ve never been in a real group situation. How the heck am I going to raid?
