This guys, to me, sounds like a whining gamer who is having trouble playing World of Warcraft. He makes the argument that World of Warcraft teaches gamers the evil lesson of "time > skill" while I would argue that this is almost completely false. Yes, in this game, if you invest a lot of time you get an advantage, but it is no substitute for skill. Truly skilled players can still outthink, outmaneuver, and ultimately outplay players with excellent weapons/armor but who are novices in the art of fighting. First of all, this game was not built for player versus player action originally anyway, so arguments as to it's player versus player lessons aren't really worth the time of typing them out. If he speaks of mainly player versus environment scenarios, then yes, this is what the game is teaching. It is teaching people that working together in large coordinated groups can accomplish much more amazing and beneficial results than one person operating as a lone wolf.
