The game is fun, but it’s now a solo game where you occasionally team up non-socially with strangers to knock out goals, rather than being the massively social game it once was. Unfortunately I think those days are over forever.
Is it? Last time I tried I was having somewhat good fun until I got the stupidest mythic dungeon group that bullied the fuck out of me as healer and stopped again shortly after that. I liked that there was just so much to do but I’m still not sure I can really enjoy the game the same way I used to now my life is so different and don’t have as much time to give to it.
A friend of mine started playing again and said it was really good. Idk about the time sink though.
You gotta find a good guild to dungeon crawl or raid with. My favorite thing was being raid lead during Mists and working with a big team. I did some competitive WoW back then, and even played with Asmongold, my character is in some of his old videos. Makes me pretty sad how he turned out.
Yeah but that’s where the time sink aspect comes in though, truthfully even though I also played at competitive levels back in the days (up to world top 50ish kills) and of course I miss the competitive aspect, as well as the social one that came from the guilds etc, the allure of modern wow was that I did have all these options to experience content and catch up without having to commit to a schedule. And TBH it did work pretty well last time I tried like a year ago, lots to do solo, lots of catch up mechanics, lots of ways to join random groups etc. But yeah it doesn’t feel the same as playing with a committed group and that’s probably what I actually miss from the game.
Funny that you played with asmon that’s some lore right there lol.
I did hear WoW is fun again
