I Hate WoWs Gamplay - Games

Seriously, why are so many poeple addicted. Explain this.

[B][U]I[/U][/B] Hate WoWs Gamplay Found yer' problem, Chief.

Different people have different opinions WoW is the best time sink ever and sometimes it just feels good to just sit and do as what most people call "boring shit" Listening to music helps a lot Also, game doesn't get fun until 30+ Also, people make internet friends, join a guild etc and relate/start talking to them, sometimes I sit for like, half an hour talking about nothing with guildies. call it pathetic, but whatever floats your boat yeah?

but why do others enjoy it? i have played it, I got to level 38, and then nearly killed myself from boredom it takes so long to lvl up unless you are on a 10x EXP rate private server, but even once ur lvl 70 it takes forever to lvl up the gameplay is shit because you press a hotkey on something, backup, press the next hotkey, and repeat this until the 1st hotkey is done recharging is there something really fun about the game I have just been missing or what? yes chatting w/ guildis is cool, but most ppl take the game srsly, or if they don't why not go on fp to talk? and last of all, i think the game is only fun when you are BELOW lvl 30, all the stuff after that is pointless grinding that takes forever *note, i got to lvl 38 in the real game, and then switched to a 10x rate server, and got all the way up to lvl 80, still boring after lvl 30

i love MMOs, but honestly, wtf is wrong with this game's gameplay and wtf is different about private servers other than i dont need to spend a total playtime of 2 years on killing various repetitive crocolisks and other pointless, boring animals why do so many people play this game and for fucking $15.00 a month? You could buy a new game on steam every month for that price

(and private servers are buggy and have shitty management)

There is nothing wrong with it, the problem is you. You seem to be the only person who doesn't like the game in this thread. Go and play another game and stop complaining. Also, if you think that being below level 30 is fun, why did you waste your time levelling a character to level 80?

I honestly don't understand how pressing fucking hotkeys and spending literally a half hour killing a boss is fun. I have more fun being a gm and typing .die on every enemy I see (it's fairly amusing) a good MMO for instance are LOTR mmos, perfect world (it does get boring though), anything that is not hotkey based... i'm sry, but if you think that WoW gameplay is PERFECT (from what i've seen at least, unless I am mission some sort of element that makes this game good) then you are exagerating. At absolute BEST i would say this game is average

When you beat the bosses and get awesome gear, shits so satisfying man, especially when its your first raid/instance.

WoW doesn't become truly entertaining until you explore the more social aspect of the game, running dungeons, joining guilds, working together as a team to accomplish a goal, talking to new people, meeting friends. It all leads towards a fun, social experience. I don't play for the raids so much as I do because of the friends I have made through my guild and other sources.

Actually, the game gets better at 20+, not 30+ in my opinion. I loved my ram. I quit at like 22 though.

I quit WoW about a year ago and now i feel like playing For me, it gets fun when you're lvl 20 cause all the dungeons and crap

The social aspect of the game makes it amazing. You can do so much with other people. Questing is mainly so you can get to the levels that lets you do raids/pvp/ganking people.

It's a cartoon game that makes fun of itself (mr. T grenade, murloc costume), how can you roleplay in it?

if you think 70+ is slow on a 10x private server, you have no fucking attention span and this isn't the game for you

[QUOTE=Snail562;22456941]there were thousands of ppl on it, it was WoW Legacy before all the ppl left[/quote] you're still not getting the full experience on a private server no matter how populated or good you may feel it is [quote] i LOVE co-op games, dont get me wrong, but there is hardly a point for co-op when the combat is so bad[/quote] then dont play it [quote] but yes, getting gear is pretty fun and exciting, but it's not worth the 5 hours[/quote] opinion [quote]last of all, i agree with all of you about how the social aspects are great (which they are) but to play a game just to socialize is pointless considering that's what facepunch is for, socializing[/quote] you'd get better conversation out of a NPC than a facepuncher [quote]also, wtf is up w/ roleplaying in that game?

obviously there is a whole different world of gamers who tend to find this fun for some reason. This game will never be fun to me, you have failed to persuade me. This thread is dead and I will divert my full attention to GD. Goodbye.

Alright. Just don't play and go back to doing whatever you "tend to find fun for some reason". Bye

A bad poster posting in GD, who would have guessed
