[WoW/General] What other universe is comparable in total power and magic to other fantasy universes?
gpt
I'd put Tolkien's world at the lower end of the baseline. Surely, to be fair, we're seeing the shadow of its passing... and great beings still remain... but there aren't any fireballs or teleporters or anything like that. Just relics and ghosts of times long past.

The D&D world varies based on the GM. Some run their campaigns like Oprah. "You get a holy avenger! And you get a holy avenger! Everyone gets a holy avenger!!!" Others are more stingy, where a 7th level mage is ecstatic to find a Scroll of Magic Missile, and has to roll percentage to copy it into his meager spellbook. But the potential is in the rules for true power.

Warcraft's world is fairly powerful, with a lot of summonings and big big magics.

But I'd put EQ1 at the top of the heap, especially post-Luclin/PoP. You have big big magics, teleporters who can save you hours of walking, dragons and even gods to battle ... and player characters who have the potential to rise to the challenges.
