lol, nah I'm sorry I can't agree with you on this one. The player count is smaller but the ratio is the same from what I can tell. I think there are just as many (or potentially just as many) here in XIV as there are in WoW.

The greater the audience, the greater number of douchebags and that's all that WoW has over other MMOs in most cases is simply a greater audience. So I think for many people, it's easy to perceive the games playerbase as being immature, but really I just think it's the numbers.

What I'm saying is, it's not a WoW thing, it's simply today's generation of gamers and they infect ALL games almost equally. If what you're saying is true and we have more mature players ect. it's only because the game isn't tolerable for most of the gamers we're talking about and so they've left early to return to other online games.

Again, look at the forums, it's the same behavior you see on WoWs forums, on Aions forums....it's all the same man.

And should XIV evolve into a magical amazing experience and lots of people join the game in the future, you'll see what I mean. Especially if there's a global chat.
