I’ve played Warcraft for a while and it got to expensive so i stopped, but for upcoming Christmas I’m getting Warhammer Online. Which is better and what are the pros and con’s of each. I need people to answer these questions that have played both games. Also which game is more "wallet friendly" because I don’t have much money. Please don’t argue about what game copied what, I don’t care about that, I just want to know which one is better. Thank You.

World of Warcraft gets boring after a little bit of playing it. well, that’s my opinion and when i used to play warhammer it kept pulling me in. so i’d go with warhammer it’s funner
the monthly charge for WoW (World of warcraft) and WAR (Warhammer Age of Reckoning) are the same, like $14.95 per month.
I personally like WoW better. I personally find the story line to be important, and WAR doesn’t really have a good one. I also find that my computer runs WoW better b/c i have a cheaper computer. When I try and run WAR, everything lags way too much. It can get to the point where i run at half the speed on a regular basis. I also find that WAR’s professions are not quite developed fully. There are only like 3 different professions, and I personally think that they all suck. PvP for WoW is also a lot better in my decision.
However, WAR has some good things too. Leveling in WAR is so much easier, and there is only 40 lvls compared to WoW’s 80. WAR has PQ’s (public quest) and are pretty cool, you can get some pretty good gear by completing them. Quest rewards are also a lot better in WAR. Unlike WoW, when you complete a quest that gives an armor reward, it is specifically for your class (so if you’re a ranged dps who wears leather, all your quest rewards will be leather and will give you buffs to help you specific class). WAR also gives you better hints on how to complete quest, and outlines where they are with a red ring around the minimap.
I personally prefer WoW, but that may just be because it is what I am used to. Hope this helps!
i wanna kno whats better 2. from my seeing, it seems that WOW is mor trustible on a computer altho i dont hav a good pc yet only a laptop. but im getting a good gaming computer soon may b
well, you have to look at it this way:
World of warcraft has been out for a hell of a lot longer than warhammer online, so they’ve had plenty of time to release patches new content, etc.
Warhammer is still alive and kicking and they’re adding new content all the time too.
It all depends on what you like, as stated before, warcraft’s story line is very well developed, and the PVP for WOW has been revamped, but still is not up to par with warhammer online’s PVP. You gain XP for completing PVP (RVR in warhammer) so it’s super easy to level
the group quests are also pretty kick ass and you can just join them whenever you’re near a quest objective.
I rolled a few 70′s on wow and decided to play warhammer online when it first came out, I quit playing MMO’s entirely due to work… But I’ve heard warhammer’s added some new instances and improved a lot on the game in the past year or so, so right now i’m installing it again.
It all depends on the player really.. It seems that the age range of people on warhammer is a bit higher than on wow, no 10 year olds spamming trade chans
So i’m going to give it a go again.
Both have their plusses, download both 10 day trials and give ‘em a shot, they’re both great games and can be played many hours w/o losing interest
Hope this helps
