I am not sure how a video game can be to addictive. should there be warnings on everything or should we all be expected to take SOME responsability for our own actions...

Why is it the companies fault that the certain guy can't control his gaming?

I've played Lineage 2...But for me, since WoW was the first MMORPG I've ever played, no mmorpg seems as good as wow...But yea, everyone has his own opinion.

But anyway, why should the company pay for a man who didn't know how to control his daily activities. If you think a game is too addictive for you, delete it asap, get your account locked, burn the CD's...those things.

That dude is filled with such bullshit.

How is it NCSoft's fault that he can;t get off of his fat ass to get fucking showered.

I don't understand why this is in the rancor pit, there is nothing controversial about this at all! XD

When someone buys a game they expect quality, if it is too addictive, well, guess what, you got high quality, which you wanted. Next thing you know, they are going to sue FIFA for the world cup being so addicting.

Cry me a river.

Fundamentally, everything can be addicting, some people on my swim team... well, lets just say its ALL they think about. When people are addicted to something, it isn't really their fault, but trying to break a bad habit is hard, sure, but why sue a company?

But, there may need to be a warning, like the ratings system, that it "may cause addiction"

protects companies from this stuff and consumers

Warning: This game is entertaining, as the designers intended. This game is not responsible for your weight problem, or virginity. It cannot control your actions, and has no subliminal or hypnotic effect.

Rating: R, for retards.

Lineage 2 is far from WoW. And it was done before it.

Sorry but WoW is just a MMORPG version of warcraft 1...

So no, Lineage did not come before wow.

But anyway, Dray is right, look at Runes of Magic. Blizzard should sue that game for copyright...fucking ripoff.
