Had ARENANET never been created...............

**pandarens** · 2012-09-02, 12:14 AM

The founders of ArenaNet used to work at Blizzard. They were heavily responsible for designing battle.net and classic WoW. These individuals were able to work alongside a lot of other talent, and created the last great MMO World of Warcraft Classic. Sadly, these individuals left to start their own company ARENANET, and now we are all left with two mediocre MMOS in World of Warcraft and Guild Wars. What a shame. I wish Mike O'brien had never left Blizzard

I WONDER

Yeah! Since wow classic no one has played the game. It died 7 years ago, no one bothers to play it. They neve reached over 1 million players, so sad. They dont have around 9 million subs right now and a new xpac coming very soon. To bad, Blizzard could have made money from wow if they did something right.

Oh wait.

I don't understand the purpose of this post. If Anet had never been created...then what? No GW?

If ANet was never created, all of the developer powers would be combined and WoW would be a better game today. As it stands, both games are suffering problems. Is what the OP is trying to say.

I suppose. Or we would only have one "mediocre MMO" instead of two.

ALL of the developer powers?

We're missing Trion and Bioware and Paragon Studios and MORE!

even if they stayed there is only so much they could've done with WoW

WoW's gameplay/systems/methods/etc are ingrained in it, you can only modify it so much

you still need Trinity/Raids/linear questing/etc etc not to mention its graphic engine etc etc

thankfully they created GW2 now people have a choice

Diversity is a good thing most of the time.

Even if they all would've made a MMO together, it wouldn't be perfect - not even near. (cause that's an unreachable ideal)
There is not even a guarantee that this one game would've been better than WoW, GW or GW2 as they're now.
Too many cooks could spoil the broth and so on.
