get everyone attuned to old naxx and then stream that for our enjoyment, tia.

Agreed. Old Naxx is the only dungeon in the entire game since launch I never got to step foot in or clear.

If they made this game free to play I would go back to my resto/enhancement shaman in a heartbeat. I miss my female orc shaman and her powerful thighs+booty shake.

Free max level characters with the purchase of the upcoming xpac. Also if you are a baby who can't afford $15 a month you should really get a loving job.

You can't have a job if you play warcraft and want to beat the actual game. That's the conundrum.

While it's true that it's hard to be a XXHARDCOREXX raider and also have a life I wouldn't say you have to have no life to play WoW at all. The game is very casual based these days because they understand that the only people still playing are casual players because most raiders get burnt out. They have added a lot of things to the game that I find appealing and I enjoy my time and think it's money well spent. Most rep grinds are a joke with tabards. LFR (Looking for Raid) takes maybe 40 minutes tops per wing (in my experience. I am a tank so I do have the luxury of controlling the pace at which we pull). Flex takes a ton of the drama out of guilds and makes it easy to just say "gently caress it" and also fixes ruined raid nights because your tank got robbed and handcuffed by a hooker. They added Pokemon to the non-combat pets which is fun. Transmogging can be addicting if you have a particular set in mind. While I could sit here all day and list off the things to do in this game OTHER than raiding, my overall point is that there are a ton of things you can do and have fun with even playing less than 4 hours a week.

why do people spend so much time accumulating gold in mmos? like people spend days trading etc but it seems like you'd be able to buy anything in the game with a fraction of what these people build up, they're just making a number go up that doesn't do anything

I just typed all that then realised it applies to pretty much everything in videogames lol

And also didn't realize that it also applies to real life. You could say that about oil barons as well.

I guess so. But more importantly you can buy political power and ruin entire populations lives. The ultimate form of griefing.
