World of Warcraft
cyro:
I've quit again already. Nothing aainst Cataclysm, but it's still WoW and after 6 year (on and off) I'm bored of the damn thing.
Bring on SW:TOR. I will enjoy butchering Darth Pwnznoobs.
Alex C:
Things like that last post make me sad. I don't really want to play a game by a company that's known for its writing with people named things like Darth Pwnznoobs. And you know it will happen.
cyro:
I know, personally I'm hoping for RP servers or something. Not to actually "RP" as such, just so the immersion isn't utterly shattered all the time. Sometimes I'm cool with it, in PvP or raids I wouldn't care, just sometimes.
Alex C:
Oh, it'll be shattered all the time. That's just how things roll. If I have learned anything from playing WoW (I too quit just recently from burnout) it's that familiarity breeds contempt. Blizzard's attempts to make things more cinematic would get lauded by a segment of the population the first time (Personally, I usually thought it was just kinda silly) and then ever after people would whine about the lack of skip the speech functions. People like the idea of fighting a big ass ice wyrm the first time around, but 2 pulls later you have people braying "BEEEEEETRAAAAAAAAAAAYS YOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUU!!" over vent while the feral druid humps your corpse before starting with the rezzes.
Oh, and it's not exactly like the MMO community is known for keeping spoilers under wraps, either-- if anything, you're expected to know content before you do it in these games unless you're at the leading edge of the player population. So remember that we had this conversation the first time someone firebombs you with something like "HEY GUIZE, WHAT DO I DO AFTER I FIND OUT I'M REVAN!?" in the SWTOR equivalent of trade chat.
Lines:
I almost quit playing, but then I started leveling up my shaman again (I kind of stopped when I got to Northrend) and Northrend pugs are a lot funner than they used to be. Mostly because everyone knows what to do because they're making alts and so there's more room to goof off. It's a nice change from Cata pugs which are Serious Business and take forever because chances are you'll do the same dungeon with about 3 different tanks, healers, and maybe a few different dps people because people suck.
Most of the 85s, including me, in my guild are considering joining a larger guild just so we don't have to do pugs anymore. We have friends on the same server in a different guild, so I think we're applying to that one. Definitely keeping my guild running, though, as a backup. We put effort into our bank and whatnot, I don't really want to give it up now. Also it's good to have a backup in case something happens.
