...that you can play as a "lone wolf" in? Is there any MMO's that don't have enemies respawning behind you all the time etc?

 

[Slo]

WoW is built for soloing.

 

[Monk]

Huh? How? From everyone, it seems that it becomes a team game after level 30 or so.

Not true. You can solo all the way to level cap. And even if that statement was true, it'd be WAY less forced-grouping than *any* other MMO out there.

Sweet.

 

[Mrbob]

WoW is sweet! Best MMORPG I have played. But then I have only played two (WoW and FFXI)!

I thought UO was, but UO hasn't been good since 1999.

It's possible to solo to 60 sure, but it'd be hell and boring to boot. Once you hit 30, you go from 20% elite quests/80% normal to about 70% elite quests and 30% regular, meaning you need to group a lot to beat quests, you don't group that pretty much forces you to just old school grind stuff which is a good way to miss out on all kinds of fun content.

uh, no, there's still a ton of solo content up until level 40. even after then, you can spend like a saturday afternoon or something doing solo quests even up to the highest levels.

Why do you want to play an _online_ RPG if all you want to do is fight monsters alone?

 

[Monk]

I want the interaction/grouping but I just don't want it to be forced, and I like to be able to explore the world as I please instead of someone telling me where to go and what to do.

 

[Tamanon]

WoW definitely doesn't force grouping. I love soloing myself, and so far, have found plenty of content to explore. Plus soloing means I can work on tradeskills and such while questing haha. Groups get mad when I make a run for an Herb that pops up hah.

 

[TheDuce22]

I have grouped once for about 45 minuets since level 29. I am 37 now. You need to group to complete certian quests but I dont see any benefit of grouping to grind out exp. It seems like its much eaiser to get xp on your own.

I've been soloing (outside of the rare elite quest) for the past 12 levels that I've been playing. You can get quests on top of quest on top of quest.

 

[Overseer]

Can someone recommend a good XBOX Live MMORPG?

 

[AntoneM]

no one else seems to like it but I rather enjoy Lineage 2... but I'm strange like that.
