…….Or is it?
Finally Warhammer have given the world a release date. I think that this could possibly be the most anticipated MMORPG since the release of World of Warcraft (WoW), hmmmm why would that be….? let…. me…. think…. oh yeah, that’s because it looks exactly the same.
How rude.
Sorry about that.
I know that the die hard amongst you will say that WoW is actually a copy of Warhammer but the problem that EA have is that Blizzard have practically pinched that IP from under their noses so is it too late for this release?
I have been playing WoW now for a little over two years. I moved over to it after playing City of Heroes for eighteen months. There was a world of a difference between these two games because WoW not only offered a more enriched playing experience during the levelling phase of the game but also opened up what was like a whole new game once the level cap had been reached.
In order for any MMORPG to compete it must offer rich environments and player experience with challenging end game content.
After the amount of time I have spent in WoW this is the first MMORPG that has tempted me. EA appealed to what is already a well sought after fantasy base and Warhammer definitely isn’t lacking in background stories and adventures. They haven’t pushed out the poor gamer by having requirements that blow most machines out the water… >cough< Conan.
With Realm vs Realm epic battles, public quests (yes…. quests where you need more than one person but don’t have to wait for an hour for a group), cities that evolve depending on how well your realm is performing and some excellent new ideas in guild development I think that Warhammer is not to be sniffed at.
The big question on everyone’s lips is…
‘Is this THE WoW killer?’
