    Make this game more immersive Blizzard!!

    So i saw a forum post by a veteran poster about changes that should be made to make the game more realistic. This got me thinking about how cool it would be to have a server where your toon needed to sleep and you couldn't play your toon during this time...or perhaps he could get sick. What do you think? I've played the game for a looooong time and i know for a FACT that people that have been playing as long as me (since the beginning of cata) that people will generally agree with me. Since most of you will be saying how good this idea is, just keep it to a minimum so we dont fill up the forum with pages of "you are awesome and smart".

    I heard this really cool game that is basically what you are looking for. It's called "Real Life" and it should be out by now. I think we should keep the immersive you are seeking and keep it in "Real Life"

    That's taking role play to a whole new level.

    Thanks for the feedback Pebrocks The Warlock. I'll have to check it out, although i havent heard of it :/ Is it like WoW? Oh, and i also thought it would be cool if your armor could rust and you could get married and have babies. Thanks again for the idea!

    I'm gonna have to go ahead and agree with you. This game really needs a fresh immersible experience, and I think this would do wonders to getting people more involved in the game AND it would also limit the amount of mindless alt creation that goes on in the game.

    I had the idea of adding a cast timer to repairing your gear so it feels more immersive, good ideas man.

    Yeah that sounds like great fun. You sit 30min in dungeon queue, and when you finally get a spot your character is like "meh, bedtime, see you tomorrow".

    I think I actually want to strike you across the face with a semi-frozen fish.

    EDIT: If troll, 8/10, you got me angry enough for me to post above statement.

    The beginning of cata is a loooong time.

    I feel like this is just bait for something that I can't quite put my finger on.

    The only time I'm not logged in is when I'm sleeping. I guess my toon goes to sleep at the same time because when I log back in he's always well rested.

    Hey Samitsu, I hear what you are saying....but, if you would have prepared your toon with a good nights sleep and eating right he would then have the energy to wait for 30 min. and be ready at a moments notice.

    We should take it a step further and add random defects and diseases.

    Like maybe your Rogue is now a diabetic and must take an insulin shot every two hours or he dies.

    Maybe it could work on RP servers, but I'd hate to have it forced on my characters.

    see!! that's what im talking about!! people on these forums are always willing to lend a creative hand. Slapping me with a semi-frozen fish COULD be a possible scenario in the game! why not put some schtick in the game? why are we held back so much? we have limitless possibilities IRL, why not in WoW?

    This thread is pure win. 10/10. I love the ideas, especially if it is a seperate server. Make the server most closely resembling real life as you can get.

    What do you all think about being able to roll on a server like this? I got a ton of people liking my cast timer to repairs thread, so why not take it a step further?

    I think it would be a waste of resources and time.
