Are PVP servers bad?

I was right to question that as you’ve spent this entire thread being incredibly abusive.

Which was my initial point about the kind of behavior open world pvp encourages through what it teaches about consequences of cruelty.

It definitely didn’t help you grow as a person my dude.

Not that it helped me either but I’ve at least identified it and am willing to warn other people away.

PvPers like PvE or they wouldn’t be playing wow. Are you afraid you are more similar to those toxic players than you realized? If they wanted to play Diablo they would be playing it instead.

See right there - your whole post is just a bunch of hypocrisy. As if you are suffering from cognitive dissonance or something. No longer wasting my time, like I said, I’ve flagged you. If I could put you on ignore I would. All of your posts are just garbage.

He’s just trolling. Not offering anything on the subject and just trying to cause a controversy. Just ignore him.

I suspect you have a misunderstanding of hypocrisy. I also suspect you will continue replying despite your statement that you intend to stop.

By reading the thread you too can gain the context of why I recommended diablo, based on the stated method of how he plays games.

The entire atmosphere of the game is different on a PVP server compared to PVE. It’s one thing if you simply don’t like pvp, that at least makes sense as to why you’d roll on a pve server instead. Me personally, I’ve played on both kinds of servers. Leveling and max level raiding, etc. In MY opinion, the atmosphere of a PVP server is the way World of Warcraft was intended to be experienced.

The factions feel at war. There’s a sense of tension in contested zones since you never know anyone’s motives. Is that higher level alliance that’s riding toward you on the road simply going about his business or he is going to dismount when he gets to you and destroy your world in less than 10 seconds? I don’t gank or pvp as much as I did when I was playing on vanilla pvp servers as a much younger person BUT I still wouldn’t give up the atmosphere of being on a PVP server for the PVE server experience. Not a chance.

There is no good intention on a game recommendation here - just hypocrisy and sarcasm. That said, he won’t get a conversation with me again. He is simply begging for attention and mistaken about how great PVP servers are and that PVE servers really are far easier.

Most people actually avoid one-on-one pvp on pvp servers. You won’t be ranked every 3 minutes.

What on earth are you basing this on? By what metric are you measuring this? Through what means are you even assigning “difficulty” to a server?

Also the game recommendation was in good faith, because it sounds like what you’re looking for - it’s a game that’s developed under the exact paradigm you attributed to world of warcraft.

I think that’s great, and I can appreciate that. I have been on PvP servers, and have experienced that, and wouldn’t go back to it. Not a chance. I don’t see either as better then the other, just a playstyle.

I think that people need to experience it for themselves to decide. In that sense, it is neither good nor bad. Sort of reminds me of back when I played HC in diablo2. Nothing different about the game, but that penalty hanging out there if you dropped the ball added an edge that I simply didn’t get in standard.

PVE players aren’t squeaky clean lol there’s plenty of toxicity in pugs especially when it comes to comp meta, ilvl, premades for raids and much more. Are PVPers more vocal? Probably, yeah, but the PVE community can be just as toxic.

Also your generalisation is pretty wrong considering I’m known in the rated & emerald dream community as one of the nicest high rated players to queue with.

no because you’ll have nothing else to do but be bored at 60

All I ever see is PvPers hating on anyone who doesn’t like being ganked.

“Man being graveyard camped sucks.”

“LOL GET REKT BABY!”
“>>> PVE REALM WUSS!”
“ROFL GET USED TO IT BADDY!”

Also:

lol, troll confirmed.

When WPVP is good its very good when it’s bad it’s very bad.

I was always strongly in favor of pvp servers, but i get it. When you’re severely outnumbered by horde or vice versa it’s really not fun. I think my server is literally 3 to 1 horde favored (most are). So yea a lot of dying.
