They tend to pass it off as the sequel and same type of game as the one that came before it in the series, you're missing my point people.


But that doesn't suggest at all that they're attempting to make a sequel. If that's what they wanted, then they'd have said "this is the future of Warcraft Games, this is Warcraft 4". What they are saying is that they wanted to take the gameworld and change the gameplay and make a new experience. Blizzard would seriously be putting their reputation on the line if they even remotely suggested that WoW was the sequel to Warcraft 3. How can they pass it off as the same type of game when it obviously isnt?

Is it just me, or is there a new thread every month about how games have gotten worser?

And oh, they hadn't. Gotten worser with time, I can name severeal games who only get's better with it's sequels.

Graphics over gameplay starts to cling off, I hear less and less about how nice graphics a game have. People don't really care about Graphics anymore... if they did then PS2 wouldn't sell at all.

Sorry about that, layout confusion. XD

I don't intend to start a flamewar, and I probably used some bad examples. Hmm, you do have a point on that, I guess what i'm talking about, instead of WoW, is more like Warcraft 3 compared to Warcraft 2. I can understand new features and such, but it USUALLY ends up being a strange copy of the previous game/s, or some wannabe. I've already stated this about a million times though. O_o

I don't know why you guys are argueing, I think Priere and Zerodius said it best.

There has always been bad games, and there always will be.

The reason why games just aren't that replayable these days is because they're much more complicated than they used to be. Back in the day it was Y to run, and B to jump. All you had to do was turn on the game, and you're insantly playing it.

But games now, usually have a learning curve to them, or they have cutscenes to add to the storyline, or whatever.

I'm not saying any of this is bad, it's just why I think the majority of us gamers, tend to say "Games these days aren't that fun to go back to". Because they're not simple like they used to be.

That, or people like myself, will always be classic fans over the new stuff.
