Seriusly, lolwut. I didn't liked skyrim, but that don't mean i shoul compare it to a mmorpg.
ANY mmorpg.
What's your point? MW3 just made a billion dollars in 16 days. It has more engaging multiplayer than XIV. I can even team up with friends for challenging PvE content. Plus, MW3 is a lot like XIV when it first released in that we have a character level and a level for each weapon.

What's not to compare? RPG elements are in most games these days. As MW3 shows, if a grind is done properly those nasty "casual gamers" don't mind a grind.

Only difference is Activision takes their flagship titles seriously and understands do-overs aren't likely.
