One of the reasons WoW had 14 million subscribers

[blitz72]

One of the main reasons WoW had so many subscribers was peer pressure.

Or maybe you know... It actually is a well made game?? Off topic though.

It's a question of pace. If you don't like it, nobody's forcing you to play it. This is not some sort of twitch action game. If people don't like the ATB system in, say, FF VII, they don't play it, either, and go play some more real-time action type RPG like an Elder Scrolls game or The Witcher or whatever. Keep in mind though that there are people who enjoy the combat system's pace the way it is.

The pace is fine, but a slow, unresponsive, sluggish combat system is acceptable?
