No one can argue that WoW clearly lifted content directly from Warhammer. But Warhammer borrowed back by taking the best parts of their UI. WoW stole from EQ, but EQ stole from UO. John William's Star Wars stole a shit ton from Holtz planets.

So there are two ways of looking at it. Getting angry cause Blizzard got it right - no - fucking NAILED it and Mythic, SOE, Origin all withered in comparison. Or accepting it as the highest compliment.

As for kids ignoring the fact WoW stands on established shoulders, there are fires waiting for you fucking morons to die in.

Superthurst - are you saying Blizzard owned the video game rights to the Warhammer IP? Cause Gamesworkshop created Warhammer. If so, huh, I didn't know that.

Warcraft 1994 v Warhammer 1983

Starcraft 1998 v 40K 1987

Warhammer is still my favorite miniature game.
WoW is hands down the kind of MMOs.
