In guild wars for example, we have huge debaits on this. Skill updates like the one last week "nerfed" soul reaping(gain energy when creature near you dies) and pvp players got pissed. Some skills have a decrease in usage and pve gets pissed. Which side should have a more of an influence?

hmm....well you have to PvE to be any good at PvP so i'd say both

PvE, since in most games pvp wont be the one giving you nice items, gaining lvls,money.

PVP

Because that's where all the fun is.

Depends on the game, Guild wars for example actually has pve while you can hardly call killing 10,000 mobs pve.

Screw them both. Level Cap Increase!

no, that'll mean more brainless grinding

Why not if that's the only thing you do...

75% pve

25% pvp.

If you're really high level (through pve) then you'll kill most in pvp.

Pvp should only be taken note of if you're a hardcore game fanatic.

Actually, both IMO.

ofcourse not.

PvE is the most improtant, cause that's a thing what ur gonna do ur whole gaming life. PvP is a thing what ur gonna do if ur probably a higher lvl.
And you can't PvP if you haven't PvE'd much.

PvP and jobs are what makes the game fun, rather then senseless grinding.

Yeah ofcourse, but how do you want to be a good PvP'er without good PvE'ing?

EDIT: NOO NOOO NOO I TOTALY FORGOT I'M GONNA BE ELITE!!!!
Tiglari51 you made me post this!! You evil bastard!!!

Anyway, i'm elite now, WOHOOO!
FREE BEER FOR EVERYONE!

pve because thats how u get better at the game and pvp is for having fun with friends etc

Depends on the game. GW, I'd say PvP. PvP is where the big tournaments are, with decent cash rewards for winning. PvE, you run around fighting a bunch of retarded AI for hours on end, each mob using the same tactics as the mob before it. One skilled monk can keep you alive through GW's entire story (7 wars + 1 monk = hella fun). PvP on the other hand, people other than the monk's skillbars actually matter. Everyone caps at 20, so it's skill over grind, which is part of what I like about GW. Can create perfect items on PvP-only chars, so that's not an issue either. Hell, you don't even have to ever PvE if you don't want to. So yeah, in GW, I vote PvP matters more.

Then you have SRO and other MMO's where time spent grinding and leet items > player skill. Since the majority of time would be spent in PvE grinding your ass off trying to reach level cap, I vote PvE matters more.

PvP is a minor gaming aspect to get rid of boredom--> PvE wins

PVE FTW
