    Before I started getting tired of playing mmo's and just didn't have the time to grind I went to play on private servers for a bit, it was a lot more enjoyable then playing on the real servers the only problem is the game became to easy so I ended up stop playing those as well.

    I don' play on private servers. As you stated, I love the real deal. The private serves tend to lack in terms of stability and content.

    I only play on the real servers, I don't really see the point of playing on private ones, everything is too easy and there isn't that feeling of playing on a massive community.

    I tried playing on some private servers a few years ago, when I got bored of playing WOW on the official servers, and I have to admit that it was a dissapointing experience. Lots of stability issues, whole aspects of the game were missing (mostly PvE fights) and the lack of leveling up made the game kinda pointless.

    I have tried a few private servers but never really liked them that much. They are okay for a bit of amusement but once you get over that there is not much they offer.

    That's why I always prefer the real deal. They're just better.

    Yes, the real deal will cost you if t's P2P, or B2P game, but the end result will always be better.

    I can understand that logic, and I used to think like that, but with a lot of mmo's you have to pay to win even though PVE might be way to easy PVP is way more fun!

    I play on the real serves mostly, although I have always wanted to play on a private server on some games, because I must admit that sometimes I get tired and bored of the grind and I just want to do things easily. But I think that the novelty of the private server would wear off as soon as you went on it, because then everything would be too easy and in my opinion it would be wrecking the game, because RPG's aren't supposed to be easy.

    Yes but if you are playing a game that was made to be played on a massive scale and condensing it down to a single player experience, wouldn't it make more sense to go play a game that was made to be enjoyed as a single player experience?
    I know what I would pick between for example playing WoW alone or playing Dragon Age, or between The Old Republic alone or Mass Effect.
    You miss a big portion of the game if you play on a private server.
