Culture shock coming from WoW

[Rygar]

Would you say PvP was harder than EQ? Or at the very least better executed? I only tried it a few times and found it hard as Hell, but never bothered to build up any resilience gear.

I remembered another thing about why I quit WoW, the holiday festival events became slot machines for epic pieces. Everyone got a bag after killing the boss which contained a piece of loot and you could reset the instance 5 times in a row or something ridiculous. Some even gave you a trinket that teleported your group anywhere in world to the boss so you can cash in.

I have this image in my mind that the WoW player base became like Harry Potter's step-brother complaining he didn't get enough presents at his birthday as last year.
