Bri01Spyder : who are you?
I must admit guys, that I come from a different gaming background than Sara. I do not FPS, mainly because it gives me a massive headache. I am not sure what it is, but maybe it's the same thing that makes me prone to seasickness when I'm on a boat. Instead, I played EQ for 5 years and then quit only to have an evil friend give me WoW.

So I loved raiding, and not being in a top US guild means you were forced to adapt strategies and learn the fights the hard way, usually with many wipes. It's a form of progression tempered by a lot of patience I must admit.

I'm glad to hear that Warhammer will have lots of lore associated with it. I left a message with a friend of mine who has a connection with EA to see if he can find out more about it. If it's full blown pvp all day long it could get tiresome -- but on the good side, if it keeps me from spending too many long hours on a schedule raiding, it may be a good thing!

I do have one disagreement with Sara regarding PvP in WoW. It's not pointless. It's a way to get really good gear without really having to be the best. I decided to get some boots and was surprised with how easy it was. For the casual player, it's not a bad thing nor a bad way to get decent gear . . . I guess that's why they call em welfare epics *ducks*.

I wish I got into pvp a bit more earlier, it does help my reflexes and skills a lot for when I raid. Too often others who are used to pve get caught in blizzards, rain of fire, volcanoes, flamestrikes, etc.
