Pffft...

I picked this game up and was a badass from day one. Still am.

Tutorial shmutorial.

For the people complaining that this tutorial is too dumbed down, I wonder how many of them asked some questions that were either considered incredibly simple or already quite well answered in the FAQs on this very forum, or could have been immediately answered via google?

Even more to the point, it's good to have tutorials in WoW (and I really wish there were many, many more about basic game mechanics) because there are so many people who play the game who don't understand even the most basic aspects of the game. Dead simple tutorials like "this is a taunt, here's how to use it" or "this is a debuff, and this is a dispell, here's how to use them" or "this is a big puddle of burning shadowy-fiery death, you don't want to stand in it" would be quite useful to direct people to.

for me, this thread sums up 3 fundamental human traits.
1 - I'm better than you and therefore need to remind you every second of the day that I'm better than you.
2 - I don't want people to have an easier time of it than I had when I was a young lad. (Sadly, this came true with my cousin, where, given the opportunity to go to a first class school paid for by an uncle, his dad refused saying "if state school was good enough for me, it's good enough for him").
3 - Mirai knows more about hardware than me.

show him your hardware... he'll rate it for you.

i wasn't complaining on what they said, it was the way they said it. but as always this was taken as "me saying im smarter than you" in which i never meant that at all. i guess once again, i've been shown that i might as well keep shit to myself instead of posting my opinions here.

Only if you can't deal with opposing opinions after opening a discussion yourself.

None attacked you, at most they disagreed. Funk just described a fairly accurate observation. But he is into pilosophy after all (he once posted a pic of his office with playmates on the wall and weed tools on the table).

In my nostalgic opinion Warcraft 2 was the greatest game of all time. A bunch of friends used to all bring their computers over and we would have Warcraft 2 parties, where we'd eat pizza and drink soda while staying up the entire weekend playing Warcraft 2.

What were we talking about? Oh yeah. Warcraft 2 had lots of features but it also had a really dumbed down beginner quest line. I think the first scenario you had to build a single farm, second scenario 3 farms and a town hall, and so on.

This made sure everyone knew how to play the game, at least the basics, and could have fun. WoW probably better keep doing that, since with RaF and SoR there are lots of high level toons running around and the owner has no idea how to play it.

I'm presuming the first two were serious and the third was tongue-in-cheek? If so, what comments herein led you to these observations?

It was at a pretty low level. watched it with my wife, and she's never played, even she said it was designed for those a bit slow on the uptake.
