25 years old here, and back in May I unsubbed from WoW (had played for 4 years off and on). I'm ashamed to say I'm actually mourning for it. I think you are absolutely right that you can never recapture that first mmo feeling. I've done way too many…
Be very, very cautious in making use of option (1). It can go badly wrong. I managed to get a reluctant friend into WoW, which involved buying her vanilla+tbc. Fine I think, tiny expense. And it was cool to play, levelling my boring priest without h…
It's not entirely accurate to say no upcoming games will scale encounters. Guild Wars 2 plans to do just that with their dynamic events (though presumably it will be somewhat limited). Events will scale even while the encounter is going on, meaning …

Data verification is 55% complete. As we cannot accurately estimate the time it will take to complete, we cannot give any furth…
I'd also suggest GW1. You can find some super-grinds if you want, but you can also avoid pretty much any grind at all. I really enjoyed simply following the story (via missions) at least up to Lion's Arch. I haven't played beyond that yet, but am lo…
I've been wondering this as well. If you try to go to mmo-champ now it says:
The site you are trying to reach is currently in emergency maintenance due to critical hardware failures. We expect this maintenance window to last approximately 5 more h…
I believe [b]closed[/b] beta is confirmed for the second half of 2011. Open could potentially be 2012.
