this sample taken really does not represent the actual sub numbers from each game therefore it must be something else than endgame that attracts players to a game.
eve with ~300k subs wins with 18 compared to WoW with 11M subs with 3 votes...
i mean the survey was adequate, he took a sample population within a community that plays the genre.
my opinion on this is that the endgame is not a deciding factor if a game is popular or not. it would look more towards actual gameplay and difficulty of the game over how much fun is the endgame

You mean which game grinds better. Sure, some people like that, but that is not what this is about. And it’s not a poll asking which part of the game is best (which is fine for you to start your own thread for a poll), just which game is best for end-game-content being that which is left after you finish grinding skills/levels. That’s my type of game, really, always has been. I really didn’t spend 5 years in UO just grinding skills heh (and years in others as well). And if the game only has raiding or only has PvP for end-game-content but it’s completely awesome and playable for years, well that works too.
I would say the results are resonably representative of the vocal minority of those on this site. Also did anyone ever doubt that eve wouldn't win a poll/award .
What game was being targeted with the critisism of nostalgia?

This pretty much shows how much people let their nostalgia blind them, lol.
yeah, when we were young then grass was greener and sky bluer and sun... khm ten times brighter
But about wow - again i remember that slogan about bullshit's taste - "Millions of flys can't be wrong... "
