Why does everyone complain about STORY based MMO's?

[drtasteyummy]

Because it's badly designed.

- The story is not encapsulated, one expansion is usually as big as a Harry Potter book so
new players have to get through all at once just to enjoy some raiding or dailies with their friends
- If you're late you probably faced an endspoiler along the way anyway
- It's a story based game with fewest voice lines I've ever seen even tho' it makes the biggest profit for the company
ignoring the absolute abysmal face animations that often take any seriousness out of the conversation like it's some Warcraft 3 unit plate animation level
- There is barely any refraction of the old story content
- The story really isn't as godlike as people make it out to be and worse SE hit just the right amount of dialoge so that whenever you're ready to
lean back you have to move your character to a position 10 yards from the current one
- And on top of the top of that they have a gear farming system that punishes you for not rushing through this lmao
