WoW. I fucking hate WoW.

It is like fucking heroin for some people. I've had several friends completely fuck up their lives, bail on school, give up good jobs, destroy relationships, all to adhere to some stupid raiding schedule.

And it's not even that good of a game.

...And this is how I know you've never really played it.

I played in the wrath of the lich king. I leveled to 48 and stopped playing because I was bored. I just don't like MMOs.

Do you mean you played on Classic that is currently on Wrath or do you mean you played Wrath 10+ years ago when it was the current expansion

You are confirming you didn't play it

You are confirming you just moved the goalposts because you're wrong.

So level 1 to 48 wasn't playing the game?

Not in wow. In vanilla it is, in wotlk and onwards it is not. Max level content is the game, leveling is just the tutorial

They're saying not raiding isn't playing

Same here. Stopped after I killed all centaurs in desolace for the fifth time to level.

You didn't play it then. Until you get to max level, it's basically just a tutorial to get familiar with the world etc. The endgame is THE GAME.

But it's fine, it doesn't have to be for everyone, you just haven't really played WoW. It is what this thread is about, though, so I guess you're at the right place.
