Hehe that's funny, even the most no skilled grandmother can get to 1700+ and clear the endgame raids in wow. I know cause I played it for years. If you think it requires skill you are deluding yourself.
Here we have another prime example of some who played WoW for years and now is done with the game so he has to cutdown the game and anyone who plays it. A very popular thing to do now!
Notice that he said the game is so simple a no skilled grandmother could play it yet it held his interest for years lmao!
I didn't say I didn't enjoy playing it, I said it was not a game that requires much skill.
Going for long walks doesn't require much skill but people enjoy it and do it regularly for years.
I was in a raiding guild that included people's extended families and was clearing endgame raids, it's not the "popular thing" to say, it's the truth.
Spin it how you want but you are the typical gamer who uses up a game then talks about how it didnt take any skill. It had to be a challenge for you in some way or you would not have played for years period! Oh well though, Im not going to get into a big debate here, have a good one!

To the OP
You do realise this is not WoW right ? Your "hard earned" items don't involve visiting the same dungeon 100 times to get the sword of pwn more.
Yes in item centric games full loot pvp doesn't work simply because noone would risk his purple staff of awesomeness to someone that ambused him:P
But DF isn't itemcentric. So at best the full looting is just an inconvinience rather than 100 more times visiting the same dungeon.
While I agree looting is a intregal part of DF, where exactly in his post did he say he was a WoW player. I mean seriously can no one state a negative opinion or disagree wth someone without accusing them of being a WoW player. This comment is not just pointed at you but everyone who does this.
Also I do play WoW but it is far from the best MMO I am playing at the moment. So no I am not a fanboy!

Warhammer is a strategic game and will require a certain amount of intelligence to play well.
There will be no 'I win' button, stun-locking or 1-shotting. Tactics will need to be employed by teams working together to achieve a common goal. Words of more than one syllable will need to be used to convey instructions to one another - except the grunts used by Destruction of course.
Stealth is not a major mechanic, allowing the unskilled closing of range and providing easy kills. You will have to plan ahead, and maybe use more than 2 button presses to succeed.
This game is for GOOD players.
World of Warcraft players, move along, nothing to see here for you
Let me summarize your post. "I was owned by rogues!"
There ya go!

Alright, we are at a very important point in DCUO developement. We still have time to voice our opinions. What do you think are the most important aspects to a great Superhero game?
DCUO must be cognizant of the fact that they will be in direct competition with the likes of Cryptic Studios "Champions On-line". DCUO has a built in fan base (DC Comics fans), but it MUST NOT rest on its laurels, or this game is doomed to fail.
What do YOU think this game must focus on or ’Get right’? What’s most important to YOU? Here’s mine:
1)Character customization: The aforementioned "Champions Online" prides itself on customization and for good reason. I, for one, don’t want to be one in a hundred, I want to be one in one hundred thousand. I want to be unique from every other hero out there. Nothing will be more frustrating than flying through the streets of Metropolis and seeing my doppeganger flying in the opposite direction. DCUO will, inevitably have it’s clones, I just don’t want to be one of them. Also, a picture is worth a thousand words. To look at my character should instantly tell you a story. How he stands, how he looks, how he moves, how big tall and hairy he is.
2)Secret Identity: The title of this point may be a little misleading. I don’t necessarily need to have a SI (although it would be nice). What I do want, though is more than a fighting game. This is an massive multiplayer online ROLE PLAYING GAME not a massive multiplayer online FIGHTING GAME. I want to be able to craft, entertain, establish relationships (both PC and NPC). I want to work at the Daily Planet alongside Lois Lane or for WayneTech with Lucious Fox. More importantly, I want these jobs to mean something. If I work for Mr. Wayne, I want to make the best gear for non-powered heroes, then make sure I get it to them (for a price). I want to save a NPC and have the random chance that that NPC starts a relationship with me, professional or personal. Those relationships should yield something, be it gear from a business contact or Innate bonuses for finding YOUR Lois Lane
3)Reward/Consequence: I want to know if I take a risk, I get rewarded for it. Sure, it will be nice to get a power-up but let’s think outside the box. If I take down the Joker, I should be noticed by the JLA. If I take down Sinestro and I have "power ring" based powers, maybe a lantern should find its way to me. On the flip side, getting an invite to the worlds most elite organizations should put a target on your back, not just NPC but PC as well. If I change from Superhero to Secret Identity without ducking out of sight, that should put my contacts in jeopardy. If I lose my contacts, I lose my bonuses (making contacts all the more important to protect...mission tip!). Make it ROLE PLAYING. Let me believe my choices as a hero impact others, which is really the central conflict in most Comic Books.
4)THIS IS AN MMORPG NOT AN MMOFG!!!
Ok, it’s late. I may come back with some more ideas later. Until then, everyone please chime in. Lets make this the best game it can be!!
I realy enjoyed reading your post and wish the DCU team could implement alot of the ideas you expressed. You should apply for the team! :)
What aspect of MMORPG's are you more into?
