The Daily Grind: Do you suffer from ‘Grass is Greener’ syndrome with MMO classes?

Oh man, I am horrible at this. Being content with my class choice is so very hard when I encounter some other MMO class that dazzles with cool effects or slides into more roles than I can perform. Before long, I’m thinking that the grass is so much greener on that side — and I should jump over there.

Sometimes I do. Sometimes I slap myself to stop being silly.

Do you feel the urge to reroll your character when you see other people talk about their class or play it in front of your eyes? How often does Grass is Greener Syndrome (GiGS) affect you?

Every morning, the Massively Overpowered writers team up with mascot Mo to ask MMORPG players pointed questions about the massively multiplayer online roleplaying genre. Grab a mug of your preferred beverage and take a stab at answering the question posed in today’s Daily Grind!
