I don't even know why I play this game anymore.
It's funny. I logged in last night - and I just recently came into some herbal remedies from my local urban pharmacist. Needless to say, I was like "yeah, I'm gonna play WoW blazed again!!!" It had been quite a while since I'd done both together.
Well, I medicate up, log in. Next thing you know, I'm sitting in Darnassus on my alt, bored out of my mind. I could go level, I just don't feel like it. So then I log onto my main...and I think "hey, I'll do a random heroic." So, I get my healz gear on, and boom, get insta-queued into a ZG already in progress. They are on the last boss.
An hour of wiping later (the DPS couldn't handle killing those shadowy thingys and avoiding getting hit with shadow crashes), I leave the group and am ported back to Stormwind.
It's been almost two hours of WoW, and I've "accomplished" nothing. I had a brief convo in guild chat with my buddy...that was about it.
Wasting time while I'm wasting time is something I just can't get my head around. Yet, I still subscribe. If nothing else, I can still have fun every now and then in WoW...overall though, it kinda blows.
Story of my three months ago. I had resubscribed in February and decided to blaze and play several times a week, but it just didn't have the magic that used to captivate me. Trade chat was a bore, heroics were a grind, raiding was impossible with pugs, arena was unbalanced, BGs felt like the same old rehashed shit and alt leveling seemed to have been homogenized even more following Cataclysm's release. Guilds were no longer families, close friends had quit the game en masse and controlling the server's raw material economy was becoming a pain in the ass.
The game occasionally gave me a reason to keep playing, but it's just not worth the money anymore. So fuck that shit.
