It shall be "PvP-BG" not "PvP-GB" or not? For BattleGround (Arathi, etc)?


Just to explain the things i picked:

PvE - Questing
It's not extremely fun, but somehow the base of a MMO. Much more fun, if it's mixed with some Soft-RP while playing together.

PvE - instances
I just love group playing :3 It's challenging (okay, not in WoW anymore, but in GW2 it is), you have to play together, mostly there are the most creative things in the whole MMO (boss strategies, pats, secrets, beautiful sceneries (maraudon :3) and always a great story beyod all)

(PvE - Grinding
PvE - Farming
Really no. If I want to repeat something over and over, which doesn't challenge my brain in any way, i smash my head against a wall.)

(PvP - Arena
To small groups, to unbalanced, no way.)

PvP - Open
Nothings funnier than the fear of being hunted, or killing the guy who stole your mobs :D Most times you get in trouble, your boring questing plans are destroyed and you have to think (!) what to do next.

PvP - GB
I love big BGs because it's one of the few chances, to arrange big battles. If somebody has some knowlegde and "makes the leader", it's really fun to me. Tactical fighting, defending, etc.

RP - Soft
After a long day in a tavern or while questing... without RP it doesn't feel like a fantasy-world, but like the stupid grinding/farming it all actually is (;

RP - Strict
Big world events which go deeper into the lore are another point, to make a mmo-world more living.

Mountain walking
Always fun while RPing, if you got no else reason for RP (:
There wasn't much things funnier than climing the mountain of Ironforge, under the deep blue night-sky of Azeroth, watching some stars and exploring secret places.

Fun events
Sometimes, you just have to make some fun (:

I won't explain all of my votes, but here are a couple.

• PvE (Questing)
I really enjoy questing if, and only if, it's done well. Original WoW's quests were great - doing them felt like an adventure. They also did not spoon feed you the entire story and only left hints and clues which you then had to put together on your own. NPCs felt like characters, not NPCs.

Mid-wrath and onwards, questing sucks. Everything is stupidly simple and obvious. There's nothing to discover - no more random quest givers out in the middle of the forest, no more randomly dropping quest items, no more long quest lines that lead into instances and raids, and no more pieces of the world which have no purpose that make you wonder, "Woah, what's that for?". Everything is streamlined… it feels very "McDonalds".

So basically if the questing is good, it makes a huge difference to me. If your quests are boring that's a big negative.


• PvE (Instances)
I love a good instance. Working through a tough dungeon and progressing through different wings is great fun. Things like rare spawns and instance quests make it even better.

Running down a hallway and blowing everything up effortlessly (mid-Wrath onward style), on the other hand, is as fun as a bag of rocks.

Definitely strict RP.

I love immersive, engaging worlds where nobody goes retard and ruins the atmosphere.

Basically the above.

Honestly, my favorite thing to do is actually go questing and RPing at the same time (or even better, RP through an instance!), but I've known very few people of late who like doing that sort of thing, and a lot of MMOs are starting up with these time-trial things that are making that harder.

The best thing in MMOs is doing unusual stuff, like hiding in Orgrimmar and spam the /2 that you will give 2000g to anyone that find you (which never happened), or exploring funny hidden landscapes forgotten here and there by the devs.

PVE was funny (only the raids with my guild, else it's meh), and PVP sometimes too (some fun in arenas).

Don't play WoW anymore, it is a dead game ! Mod it instead :D

RP and PvE is for sure the most fun aspects for me. PvP is a good time killer, or easy way to gear up normally.
I've always been a fan or RPing my way through raids or large events. I think at this point I know more about WoW's lore than I know about real history...

So I'd have to say Strict RP / PvE
