This doesn't work if you don't like playing alts.
And what you say is kind of confusing. I think what you're saying is that by leveling to 60 right now you don't gain a whole lot since being at 60 or 50 in velious doesn't matter much; it's virtually the same danger in the zones. So may as well roll up an alt and play that and wait until velious hits and then go to 60. That way you can get the benefits of the expansion like more zones and better items without grinding too much in old zones and without feeling like the extra levels were meaningless.
And you know... if people LIKE playing the game RIGHT NOW, who cares? Really?
I never understand people who just think about level. While I understand that levels give us more power, to me power is not all that is. My enjoyment also matters. I do whatever preserves it.
I entered a raid guild once and wow was it awesome, for a while. We touched a level of gaming I had never met before. It was something I won't forget. However, it was just too much. Eventually, I left. In a lot of ways, those people are like people who look at their level too much. They're strict and play hard, but sooo square. Where's the imagination? Where's the love of fantasy and roleplaying? Where's the magic?
Don't let the numbers rule your life. Without MAGIC, it has nothing worth preserving. You know, people don't just live to work or to follow the numbers, they live because they have a dream. If you never take time away from the numbers or the work, you're not going to find the time to develop your dream.
Maybe I'm being belligerent. I don't know. I've fought hard in gaming too, so I am to blame for the same things I am attacking others for here. I just think numbers and work do not define love or dreams. They're not the producers of dreams, they're more like the byproducts of them. Without dreams, we wouldn't be here.
So yes, in a way, I just said that all we know is thanks in part to dreams and unfathomable love. I'm not implying life is a dream, but without dreams it's a cart without a horse, a man without a soul. Look at religion. In many or all cases, it was the dreamers that started it and preserved it. Others jumped on the wagon. The same can be said for philosophy, science, philanthropy, human rights and other things. Dreams ARE powerful.
