you thought WoW sucked because you disliked how MMO's have progressive, constantly-updating content? okay

i didnt buy bc2 because it was just like, get to top rank, then wow one map killing people so then i can load the next map to wow just kill more people and then just load the NEXT map to kill WOW ONLY MORE PEOPLE. it just didn't seem like it had a finite, end-point. it sucked. yeah, that's why i don't play them.
no, theres some good MMOs out there

in wow, you get to the top level really easily.  then, you have to raid for gear so you can get to the next raid.  you do that 20 times until you get all the gear.  and then what?

every MMO has that structure except for sandbox-open end ones like EVE... and i don't think anyone can write a compelling argument for that.

you're being reductive to the point of absurdity, so as i said, im not going to properly waste my time with an intelligent response.

yes the leveling experience is easier now, more streamlined and quicker than most Korean grindfest-MMO's. if it took any longer you'd complain it was a harsh treadmill. WoW has been out 6 years now, most people have leveled 2-3 characters, on average, to the maximum level. They have added 2 expansion packs that have extended the leveling journey by some 20 levels. of course it's quicker, easier and more streamlined now. nobody would ever want to fucking try another character if they knew they had a 2-year mountain to climb to even get to experience the end-game. What would the game developers do when it came to releasing new raiding content if they knew all of their players were still too busy grinding away, 12 hours a day, to just reach the required level? don't be silly

The only major problem that I had with RA3 was the finite resources to build with. In all other C&C games I can recall, there is unlimited resources that you can harvest to build whatever, but RA3 seems to lack a restocking of resources.

I've seen a few matches actually that exhausted all the maps resources and people basically sold themselves to death trying to scrap together units. It is a fun game, mostly for LANs though I think.

RA3 is too goofy tbh
What, and giant ants and Russians fighting dinosaurs wasn't? Plus Yuri like the reincarnation of 50's cheese. RA3 didn't even have a moon base of doom.
Meh...

I still think RA3 sucked balls where RA2 was pure win
Well I guess you win. Starcraft. What a horrible thing to want your game to be like.

yeah, I think that was to speed up matches so you couldn't build uberbigbase with impenetrabledefense.

It would be better with an unlimited resources mode tbh.

Rome: Total War, if it hasn't already been said.

I agree with the Sim City series being up there. My favorite was Sim City 3000 (Unlimited). It had the most bomb jazz soundtrack and you can download it for free somewhere.

The first one was lame, boring, repetitive overrated shite i'm afraid.

Second one is better if I'm honest.

I got it when it came out but it kept crashing on me for some reason and was unplayable. I can't really comment on it although it looked very promising.

SC4 was really no improvement on the core gameplay of 3000 unlimited. just shiny graphics, camera tools and robots.
