Why did YOU quit WoW?

[Eternal-Elf]

I personally liked World of Warcraft. However, I am not a hard-core gamer either. When you can only get on for 30 minutes to an hour a day WoW made it pretty fun to just tool around or actually get some exp done.
EverQuest is undoubtedly better, don't get me wrong, but I did like WoW. Easy or not it was fun for the time I played it.

The order in which you got yours on server doesn't mean anything, an exact date would be better. But even still it wouldn't matter because both of those achievements were relatively easy, so I can see how you think they were being given out. Did you get the Plagued Proto-drake? Black? Did you at least get the 25 version of your Rusted? Bloodbathed didn't require HM LK, when did you kill him? Months after your mount, if ever right?



You just sound like a guy who tried to play an MMO with no friends. You are in randoms with jackasses because everyone worth a fuck still groups together like they did before the lfg tool; and then they quit running those heroics because they don't need the badges that badly to continue raiding. You probably ran heroics 4 times as much as anyone that raided well. You don't get to be in a raid learning shit new, because you got no raid until it's pugged two months later with terribles that couldn't beat it w/o those addons. It sounds like if it weren't for the lfg tool and pug raids you wouldn't have done anything in the game.



You too guy? You realize the lfg tool didn't stop you from building groups like before right? You can still invite people on your server and zone in. I don't get why people complain about a system they can opt out of. And in case you have forgotten, pugging shit on server before the lfg tool set you up with retards too. Make some friends worth a shit.



Your pvp experience is low level unrated battlegrounds (twinks at that lol) and you are complaining about gear resets. Lol yeah, i guess the game is easy, if you do shit that a monkey wearing mittens could do.

Also who the fuck cares about gear resets, or how easy it is to get vanity rewards? Do you have no fun playing sports because your score isn't going to hold over next time you play? There is only one single reward, in WoW, EQ or any other MMO that means a fucking thing; it's the satisfaction of killing something difficult. If you are in all 277s right now, and you are pissed off that every single person will have better gear when they hit level 73 in Cata, you need to just stop. Now. You are playing for the wrong reasons.

I sympathize with yall who complain that terrible players make your raids harder than they should be. And it's true that if you log in and start sending random people tells, you will just get shit back. if you want to have fun right off, start with a group of friends or wait till you level up and make some. The game is full of retards. But with 10 million people playing around the world, what do you think you are going to find? If you have a good attitude there are guilds with good people who are happy to have you. Same goes for playing well.

Fuck I think I just tl;dr myself.

I got a proper bit of wood reading this. Common sense FTMFW.

lol. what do you have then?
Antique game syndrome?

WoW was decent =)

Maybe I never tried it because I was and still am insanely bitter over what the release of WoW did to my guild, and how we had to rebuild for six months. That and I lost close friends because they wanted to try the latest and greatest thing, whom I never heard from until years later and by then the damage was done.

It's a sad personality trait really. Loyalty in a virtual world is silly. No, I'm not being sarcastic. I wish I didn't feel so strongly about their constant defection to the newest shiny box on the shelf. No one craves being angry and resentful, it solves nothing. Especially about a video game, it's laughable. But I still hate it, god damnit I hate it so much, haha.

[wizigig]

got bored with it.

I left wow when they patched in Battlegrounds. You had all these nice places like BB, huh... that place near strat, basically everywhere in the game you could ambush/get jumped by other players, and all that died when they patched in BGs and people all vanished inside instances.

The funniest shit about that, is that the devs from warhammer online thought it was a fantastic idea.

Stupid Dev #1: YEAH! lets hype the game as an open pvp game, and then, when the game launches, put all the xp inside BGs so that players are forced to grind them. People wont realize nobody but people who bought a gaming rig this year can take the FPS hit needed for open pvp. Solid?

Stupid Dev #2: They like WoW so much, surely hyping the game as an open pvp game and then forcing them to grind BGs from lvl1 is gonna shower us with money and get us subscriptions beyond our wildest dreams!!!

I left WoW when I realized "WoW this game fucking blows"
