WoW alternative

[43]

I'm looking for a great WoW alternatve. Any suggestions?

I've looked hundreds of times on different sites and forums for WoW alternatives, I am a WoW retail player since 2009 and I won't stop, if you really need a no payable WoW alternative (because I believe that's why you're looking for one), try some private servers.. I don't like to encourage that but hey, if you play the game, I'm happy. On the other hand, if you really want to stick to finding an alternative, all I want to say is: none will give the same amount of content, complexity, emotion etc. as WoW does. This is what I have to say.

Its not like i dont want to pay for WoW, but im looking for some alternatives, maybe in different settings than WoW. Ive tried so many MMO's and im still looking for alternatives

There alot of games that are ALOT better then WOW :p Guild Wars for example is ALOT better.

if you like pvp i can recommend you black desert online. Guild wars 2 is also a really great game with so much content.

Since no one posted it...

Final Fantasy 14 is nice tho.


Pro:

• Friendly and helpful Playerbase
  
• 1 Character can learn any Class and Job 
  
• Nice Events (even from the Playerside such as the Bard Event every Saturday)
  
• Player/Guild Housing (You need to be active for that tho, otherwise it will be auctioned - 30d inactivity)
  
• Nice Soundtracks
  
• A lot of Mini Games like Triple Triad with the Soundtrack of FF8
  
• Huge Focus on Raids and Dungeons
  
• Mentoring System
  
• You can frikin play Songs as a Bard with your Keyboard or any other Midi Key-Recorder!
  

Contra:

• No real PVP Focus
  
• No Open World (Area Loading)
  
• Too much variation? (You can really do a lot that might be not the eye candy for beginners)
  
• No real P2W Aspect but, you can buy yourself a Level Boost or Main-Story Completion in the Mogry Shop (Web Shop for InGame Goods)
  
• Gold Sellers are sometimes crashing the market value of specific Items
  
• High Grind Focus for some specific Jobs (Fishing and Smithing)
  
• Flying is Area Bound too, you need to do Quests to unlock some sort of Wind Altars to fly in that Zone you're in, switching the Zone where you're missing those Wind Altars, you can't fly anymore
  
• Often Servers get migrated or splitted, you need to inform yourself of those changes due Housings (Plots will be resetted)
  
• Sometimes quite ugly to find M or L Sized Plots since those are taken either by Guilds or Players (Some might offer them what I wouldn't recommend due Scam)
  

Rating:

• Graphics: 8/10
  
• Gameplay: 7/10
  
• Music: 8.5/10
  
• Grinding Aspect: 7.5/10

Guild wars 2, maybe Tera? (Look it up) Wildstar use to be really good, probably when the private servers get released for wildstar could check that out but the time for that is unknown.

Everquest and everquest 2, runescape. Just listing some games that I feel are solid.
