Bucket Guild | FUBU BH Forums

It's funny - it hits me at the weirdest times. But sometimes...I'll just get a memory of WoW, think about the character Azelma...think about some zone or instance and get this urge to play again. It's like something that tugs at me and makes me want to just spend time levitating in Zangermarsh, flying over Hellfire Peninsula, riding through Westfall, etc...

It's really quite weird....any of you bros who have quit ever get that?

Hate to be the one to say it, but when you're back in, the nostalgia wears off real quick. Especially when more than half of your logged in time goes to thinking about 'back when'.

I think about FF11, taking a boat to some island at Lv25-30, camping outside the village and pulling mandragons.
Some nig will pull a gobby and you see a party next to you just fall over from being gutted or bombed by the gobby. Good times.

One of my favorite episodes, reminds me of WoW



You're joking, right? =P



This.

I mostly monologue to people on my Bnet, farm satchels, work the AH, and do my weekly mount runs. I don't even do all of them anymore.

Someone pretty aptly described WoW as the $15/mo chat client.

Nihilism is a copout.

No it's almost time to move on :p

My biggest nostalgia inducing thingamabob is music. Various albums and songs make me think of WoW due to how much i listened to them. Although this also applies to real life in general. For example if i listen to any song of Sepultura - Roots, it reminds me of waiting down the bottom of my driveway in the rain for my ride to pick me up for work back in 01-02.

WoW specific, any song off Devin Townsend - Physicist reminds me of questing / farming ore in Nagrand. David Bowie 1969-1974 compilation reminds me of leveling in Bloodmyst Isle (pretty sure Spacehunter). The 74-79 compilation reminds me of questing in Netherstorm. Pain of Salvation - BE reminds me of leveling my first ever WoW toon in Loch Modan. Not sure why i sent my Human Priest there... exploring was so fun when the game was new.

I could go on. Ænima reminds me of studying for my second semester Uni exams at my late Nana's house at the end of 02.

Would be nice to listen to certain things and not trigger memories like that every time.

I actually was about to post something about missing FFXI and wanting to go back, too! I've got the same feeling Azelma has, but just with a different game.

As much as I played WoW, I don't think any game could ever top Final in it's prime days. Saw a new expansion is coming out in 2013; it's been half a decade since the last one. It's scary to think I started that game when I was 10.

I make similar associations between music and where I was in a previous time.

Since breaking up, my 'Skip Track' button and I have gotten very familiar with each other.

Bowie at the Beeb? Great stuff indeed, though somehow I've no memories associated with both it and WoW --- strange, considering that I was still playing around the time that I got into Bowie.

Still, music is probably the most powerful reinforcer there is of past experiences. I can't count how many times I've been brought back in thought to Alterac Valley, Silithus, Stranglethorn Vale, Hellfire Peninsula or Blackrock Mountain by song; it's as if I'm visiting them once again, this time anew in my senses of wonder and anticipation. But I persevere in not coming back. After all, there's no point in redoing what's already been done, nor is there any point in wasting $15 on something that for some time has not existed.

This one. I think it's Dad's. Actually it's on my shelf here. Looks like it used to belong to one of the radio stations he worked at. Theif lol. TBC for me was Bowie & Townsend all day. And Copacabana during MGT runs (fkn trinkets).
Townsend, Bowie, Copacabana.

It is hard to justify WoW. I resub out of sheer boredom generally. I still struggle to get back into regular gaming and always end up thinking "i'd rather play WoW". Perhaps i should get a haircut and get a real job.

i can't listen to OK Computer anymore without thinking about my second HWL grind with Seanarcher and Castortroy

Oh yeah. Sucks dude.



It's fun for me listening to songs and they take me back as if were there today. Hot n Cold takes me to QD Isle to random parts of the island. I can still see the fighting, the gleam in Dashe's eyes and on Yewluze's peanut head.

I think, WoW is what you make it. I have low expectations for WoW. I really got into ganking 85s on my 84 hunter (glyph of conc shot is OP lolol).

That's the mindset I've adopted. I took a scroll of res and now have a free level 80 (85 now) priest on Area52 Horde.

I'm just playing with a few real life friends, low key and just not worrying about taking things too seriously.

It's kind of like the whole 'first time leveling' experience in some ways. The urgency associated with min/maxing, raid attendance, reputation and attunements..none of that is there anymore. We're just dicking around enjoying the game in whatever capacity we can.
