worst lore in history of mmo-rpg's

[Drakent]

Before i start i like to let everyone know that english is my second language so i will try my best with my spelling and grammar

Every person play mmo-rpg for difference reason, got player's that play it for pvp other's play it to show there rare gears other to play with friend's.

I play mmo-rpg for story reason and to explore the world that was created,
This is why i found FFXI to be the best mmo-rpg ever created. The story was so well done that it had me wanting more and always kept me on my toes, it even gave me adrenaline rush a few times.

I have play every single MMO-rpg out there and they all had great story but it has never compares to ffxi so when i heard of ffxiv arr coming out i was so excited thinking finaly a new game that will have me dreaming on about the story and to my discover this game has the worst lore i have ever seen in history, I feel like i am watching The Last Airbender.

I am so disappointed with SE especially when GW2 has no monthly charges but they have spend time and $ to create a great story and SE charges $15 a month and they put very little effort

Yeah, but take into consideration that they had to rush the development of ARR. They've rebuilt an MMO from the ground up in record time, lol. Yeah they had assets, but going by the dev posts through the years, the workload was insane. Give it a few months. 2.1 is already adding a ton of content; granted content we should have already had at launch. 2.2 looking like it will be even better.

How can you say that this is the worst Lore in the history of MMos when WoW exists?

I think it's also important that people remember XI has had 11 years to flesh out its world and tell stories within in. XIV not so much, especially when much of the original story had to be scrapped for the whole Dalamud thing and the coming of 2.0. There's still a lot more that can be explored, we just need to wait and experience it when new content gets added.

This I incredibly agree with. I got so mad at WoW's story around the time of Cataclysm's last patch, due to the plot holes created in the narrative and the utter ruination of the Jaina Proudmore character (not helped any by the off-screen plot-death of Cairn Bloodhoof and Blizzard all but pretending the Draenei and Worgen, my two favorite races, never existed outside of their starting zones), that I quit the game. The story was bad, has only gotten worse (Garrosh Hellscream needs to be hurled into the nearest sun), and I just can't take anything they do seriously anymore.

And above all else, SE's MMOs made me the hero, the central character of the narrative. In WoW, you're the nameless adventurer that only helps the important NPCs, who get all the credit for the work you actually do.

The lore in vanilla was INCREDIBLE. It shat all over any mmorpg, past and present.

Vanilla only seems awesome because they didn't have time to fuck it up, even then you have the Forsaken in the Horde. Warlocks in the Horde. The Degeneration of Night Elves from Nature Red Tooth and Claw to another brand of bland Wood Elves.
