Without rancor, malice or fanboism, I think we have become a touch spoiled. I mean, I tried STO yesterday and if I had to pay for that PoS I would VERY upset. This is a game out for years and the lag, rubber banding and random DC issues are rampant. I am usually one to give a game a week or so, but I barely lasted 4 hours before I washed my hands of it. It had potential, the the performance was just absolutely terrible.

Sometimes we take WoW for granted.


If I'm reading your point right, I disagree that we take WoW for granted. In most of the threads where people gripe about WoW but still play it, those reasons you state (low latency, fluid combat, stable engine, etc.) are exactly why people do stick around, in spite of the balance/mechanics/design decisions that have had a number of folks annoyed since Cataclysm.

I took his post to mean that, while people complain about WoW a lot, it is still one of the best games out there. By spoiled I think he meant that we as players have become used to the smooth game play we get from WoW and start expecting that from every game.

If I'm completely off base and misread his intent, I am sure he will be along to correct me.
