Knite_Gilnorn Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Here's a bit of information for those that are under the impression that TOR is a WoW clone. WoW didn't even invent half of the systems it used. Instead it copied most from other games like EQ and DAoC. So if TOR is copy of anything it would be the MMO genre. So really every time you say "It's just WoW in the Star Wars universe!" You're basically saying "It's a Star Wars MMO!" Which as far as I know is common knowledge so you're just coming off as stupid. But it's ok, some of us understand what your actually saying. But we already know it's a Star Wars game with features that other games in the same genre also have. You silly , your not .

Joeliiyy Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Its a traditional MMO. Thats the genre, its taking good things from WoW and making it better. What did you want an entirely different game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkimor Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) "What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul." TL: DR: The OP thought he was clever by saying something that was said a few years ago only with less clarity, grammar, forethought, and cleverness.

Sept 2009 join date and you are just coming up with this. Just in case you didn't know, on the old boards there were countless threads on this and explaining where wow got their ideas.

Knite_Gilnorn Posted December 27, 2011 Author Share Posted December 27, 2011 Um, you missed the point of the post. I see people still saying this it's WoW so I'm trying too help them understand how it's logically no more a WoW clone than a DAoC clone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWGVet Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 All MMORPG's are clones in some shape or form. All MMORPG's take, steal and use mechanics from previous MMORPG's. /thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knite_Gilnorn Posted December 27, 2011 Author Share Posted December 27, 2011 Why are you telling me what I just said? This isn't something I just thought up, I'm just voicing it for those that don't understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at it this way, Steve Jobs didn't invent anything he just stole ideas from everyone else and repackaged them into overpriced commercially viable fashion accessories, yet everyone aspires to be like him... WoW is the MMO equivalent of Mr Jobs So yes, people can say whether or not a game is clone of WoW... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
