i’m getting the shakes again, The MMO shakes, i need someone to please PLEASE tell me that WoW is a shit game that is definitely not worth me spending a monthly fee for. i’m going through an addon list already i’m too far in, please help.

I played wow for a large part of my life and have been both happier and more successful since I stopped playing. (It also was how I didn’t go insane boymoding for all of college though so take that for what it’s worth)

Play path of exile or something free.

Will they give you a free month? The last time I had the MMO shakes, all I had to do to cure them was login to ESO and try to do literally anything - all the popups about new “opportunities” that were just loot boxes and micro-transactions gave me the ick, and I logged right back out.

Had a similar experience with Diablo 3 but instead of a popup spam, it was a friend that was practically foaming at the mouth with how obsessed he had become with the game. All I had asked from him was to level me to cap so I could gear and play with him for that season. He began to practically play the game for me, telling all the stuff I need for this and that and blah blah blah and it reminded me real quick why I left the online gaming community. There’s no fun in it anymore and I don’t have time to worry about minmaxing and deminitioning returns. I just wanted to casually click shit on a screen and chill with my friendo.

I feel you I was contemplating getting into WoW classic due to nostalgia for WoTLK but I already lost over two entire years of my life to that game. And no, I didn’t just play it for a couple years seriously. I mean my main character had nearly 700 days played time ~15,000 hours. 100 entire days of my life, every year, for 6 years.

Go ahead and resubscribe. Right now.

Your entire quest log is going to be filled up with disjointed story quests that in no way interact with each other.

If you manage to navigate through that slop, enjoy literally nobody willing to invite you to anything, because the last raid of the expansion is already over, and if you aren’t Ahead of the Curve, you’re trash.

You’re welcome.
