New gaming PC doesnt look right
MMO-Champion
Today or well just 5 minutes ago I had sad realization that I wont and actually don't have time to play vanilla or enjoy it in a proper way.
I know it's about journey to 60... I might even reach lvl 60 in 8 months if I continue to play like this. But then even when I sit down I'm constantly being pulled away from PC stuff such as- me and wife just moved into new house, there's constantly some shit to do around it. People from job call when some issues pop up, I'm manager (print on demand studio) so I need to be available 24/7.
I won't have time to raid, I don't think I'll ever find casual guild that will take me into raid once or twice every 2 weeks. And if I'd go for pvp... I know people are going to destroy me as I won't have enough practice or good enough gear to present any kind of challenge.
Classic is live for almost a month now, and I'm just level 20 and lets be honest first 30 levels are quite fast and then it gets slower and slower, not to mention 50-60 it's going to take me months.
I don't want to go back to retail man but I don't think I have much of a choice here...

When you feel like you're done with lvl 19, slowly get to 29 while getting all the gear and repeat.
You'll literally have content to keep you busy for the next 2 years if you do that in a slow phase and by the time you're done you'll be 60.

Seems like a fake post, but okay
If you are this busy I doubt you can enjoy any game.

Be rational.
Challenge Mode : Play WoW like my disability has me play:
You will need two people, Brian MUST use the mouse for movement/looking and John MUST use the keyboard for casting, attacking, healing etc.
Briand and John share the same goal, same intentions - but they can't talk to each other, however they can react to each other's in game activities.
Now see how far Brian and John get in WoW.

Classic is not journey, it's just a boring easy-mode grind. I don't think you lose too much.

Classic is especially hard to enjoy - dungeons are like raids in that you get to do them once a week, and if 7 of you turn up - then 2 of you miss out. Originally Posted by Lemonpartyfan

Classic is 6 phases. So content might stretch to 12 months total. Originally Posted by THEORACLE64

As soon someone says hes busy and can't enjoy game that he actually cares about (due to lack of time) it's considered fakeposting or trolling, I can assure you it is not. Originally Posted by Lemonpartyfan

You're not missing out. My friend did MC yesterday pressing frostbolt for 6 hours straight. He lost braincells and is now handicapped. Originally Posted by Indartu

past 23 not a single realm is full anymore.
in a month most of them will be medium and in 2 months people will openly start to ask for merges
its just a matter of time.
clock is already ticking tick tok tick tok tick tok
and nobody can stop it.
the hype is already dead too.

LOL @ all the try-hards trying to 'push content' in Classic. It's very fucking simple and it's very easy. It's also fun and relaxing to do as a casual and again, Classic is infinitely more casual an experience than BFA. You whine about how it's a neverending grindfest because you kids just grind dumb shit over and over and say "hurr durr this is da best way to level because a guide told me" and wonder why when playing a game in a stupid boring way that it's a boring stupid game. Same goes with applying 'optimal' class stacking for like MC and shit. Fucking ridiculous nonsense and completely unnecessary when you can just go in and do it with whoever the fuck is on and relax and enjoy smashing it every week. That's all it takes.
I've got a hard to swallow pill for all you try-hards and it's just that I don't think you can even enjoy games anymore because you've spent so much fucking effort trying so hard to be 'good' at a game that you not only never actually got good at it but that you can't even have fun because all you do is what some guide that buzzkillingtons your entire experience tells you is good.Paladin Bash has spoken.
