The only way I would think you could genuinely have fun anymore is to go to a decent, mature Vanilla private server. But, none of those exist as far as I know.
[QUOTE=Tigster;31584857]Why? People play and enjoy it, so why do you want it to die?[/QUOTE]Because it and the entire country of Korea have been constricting an entire genre.
What Blizzard [b]should[/b] have done is make Cataclysm separate from non-Cataclysm.

Pugs are already damn near suicidal, you seriously wanna give them a push off the roof?

For the same reason people want CoD to die. They simply can't imagine people with a brain actually enjoying something they don't.
Sadly I was one of these lost subscribers. I didn't do it out of spite, I just forgot to renew. I still feel bad

Don't worry, it's not as if Blizzard actually needs your money in any way.

I should send them my credit card and pin number to make up for it

90% of MMOs try to be like WoW, if it dies then maybe most developers will try and be original.

It's not Blizzards fault they made a successful game.
Maybe MMO developers should stop making shit games?

The same could be said of action games that copy God of War, or JPGs that copy Final Fantasy, or third-person shooters that copy Gears of War, or first-person shooters that copy Call of Duty and Halo, or even platformers that copy Mario, Pitfall, etc.
Vanilla was good, BC was excellent, WotlK was decent, Cataclysm sucks

ever since they started releasing WoW expansions, that has always been the modifiable norm though. When WotlK came out, tonnes of people complained about it, and the same with elements of BC.
I think I've been on the trial about 3 times, every time I've got to around level 20-30 and quit because it just wasn't fun. My brother has played it for around 5 years and keeps telling me "it gets fun when you get to a high level", but no way am I going to grind my way to boredom.
Wow, it's really going down hill.
I like WoW, but it's just going to shit with all these people just playing for free. They always rush and need. ALWAYS.

Wait you lost me, are you talking about a video game or your posts?
Oh yeah, what happened to your "we're gonna release content more frequently!", blizzard? Content were released at the same speed as it was in WotLK. Glad I quit this game; I finally realized MMO's are fucking expensive.

Feenix is awful.
I've got one I do a lot of Dev Work for but we don't have the population for it to be any fun.
I swear to god that world of warcraft was so much better before catalysm. Catalysm fucked everything up
does it really surprise anybody that an MMO as popular as WoW is terrble?
First off, implying that it is terrible because it is popular is just silly.
Secondly, 11.1 million subscribers (far and away the most for a subscription based game) would disagree.

So are all games

Opinions. Around 8 million other people disagree with you.

Lolwhat?
WoW is a great game but terribly repetive and lacks a real goal to aim for.
To me WoW was a great goddamn game, but then I hit the max level and it lost all interest to me. Grinding for better gear to get better gear or higher numbers in the stats is pointless to me. Questing is where the fun was at, leveling up, getting stuff, progressing, not standing at the same place but gradually make yourself better for no reason.
Great game, really good if you've got social contact with people inside it (which is THE reason to play it, which is why I don't) but dreadfully repetive.
Calling the game terrible is just stupid because it factually isn't, if it was it would never amass such a great number of players and KEEP THEM for YEARS.

lmao, your opinion is wrong.
Vanilla was the best WoW. I still remember launch day, 5000+ queue. 3 hrs of waiting, play 20 min and get disconnected. Good times
