OMG - UK, that is hilarious. I remember seeing that video forever ago, LOL. The kamikaze idiot boy and the other party member comments were hilarious. Priceless.

I don't know why everyone hates it so much and im sorry you thought it was a lot of grinding Pasta but the best comes when you get to lvl 20 all the way to lvl 59. There is so much to do and if you play like i do you are consantly finding new and cool places to play. Pretty much every 5 lvls you move up you can play in a whole new region of the map. Working all the different professions is loads of fun and the majority of people i've met online are more than willing to help out if you ask nicely (except for the majority of the people in the barrens (you'll have fun with that)) and there is hardly ever a shortage of people to play with. I think you should get it but the free trial is certainly a good idea
I think I'm somewhere around level 23. I think my problem was probably just that I was expecting something completely different going into the game.

I have only one experience with MMORPG's and that was 2 years of Lineage II. (See Spotlight Article for more info) I think when whether you have fun or not playing one of these types of games all depends on your attitude going into it.
Alzapa seems like he already has some friends that play the game and that may help alot. If you go into not caring about being the high level uber PvP character, and grind, grind, grind all day, then I think you can have fun no matter which MMO you are playing.
I realized early on that I would never be able to commit enough time to become the elite high level character that I dreamt of from time to time, so I had fun with partying with friends, role-playing with Clan members, and site seeing, looking for that elusive cool item drop from a new mob you haven't seen yet. Oh, and you can always harrass all of the Money Farmers that don't speak a lick of english.
Just have fun with it in your own way, but don't take it so seriously that it takes over your real life. Just like anything, play it in increments and take breaks when you feel overwhelmed or stressed out. That is what is nice about playing console games and pc games, you can mix and match.
Bah, I sound like a dad now, but anyway, I would think your laptop could play WoW, but you may have to turn off some effects and such or it may be a little laggy. And definitely go pick up the 14 day trial disc at your local store to try it out first. Free trials are always nice before committing to a game this massive.

that is what I was hoping to get out of this game. Thanks.
also can I get the 14 free day trial online or do I have to get a disc from a place like best buy?
EDIT: I found a online free trial

I loaded up Guild Wars recently and played for a few hours. They made some good changes in the last 6 months, but the f*ckers took away my Guild and Hall (which I paid close to 45 platinum for) sometime while I was not playing. Halls only cost about 9 platinum now, but I was more in it for the single-player campaign........

the only time i've played an mmo is like runescape and guild wars if this is your first mmo i might suggest runescape because it has the elements of an mmo like: wide skill selection, great quest, and it's only $5 a month if you wanna be a member

Yea, Runescape is a good first MMO to get a feel how they are... but I know many MMORPG fanatics who absolutely hate the game, and shun it. So if you don't like Runescape, don't let it dictate your thoughts on MMORPGs.
