Always a silver lining

I actually tried out WoW a couple weeks ago for the first time.
It's competent in a lot of ways,
and when someone turned into a bird and let me fly on his back, that was cool.
But the clipping plane and fog are (in 2012) unforgivable.
It's complete trash.

Idk what ur referring to, clipping plane & fog? But I actually d/l it few days ago and I'm playing a little, prot paladin (tanking paladin) and I have to admit, the idea of Pandas seemed dumb but it's actually pretty cool. I thought the intro movie was awesome, the commercial doesn't give it away. Going back to WoW after FFXIV, the gameplay/controls is such a refreshing feeling & keybinding.. I can actually make full use of my Razor Naga mouse. Current FFXIV is designed for controller in mind, the action bar setup...

Is designed for controllers, they can directional pad easily down to the other bars. PC users would work better with more visible skills that allow keybinding to keyboard/mouse.

FFXIV def has better graphics, that's a fact. But OVERALL I would rate WoW better than FFXIV, currently.

P.S. My paladin is Lv.85 in endgame 85 gear so my perspective is probably diff than someone new playing /shrug.
