Title: World of Warcraft: WTF
Post by: SSG Snuggle Bunny on January 31, 2009, 11:04:13 AM
I just started playing on a private server to spend time with my son who is back in FL.

This has got to be the most redundant grind-fest ever.

People actually pay $15/month/account for this tripe and grind their way to level 80?

HOW TO PLAY:

"Collect X number of Y parts of creature Z." and repeat 12,835 times.

Hardly.

Addictions tend to have a modicum of pleasure to them. WoW is  just mind-numbing.

Oh I totally agree. My husband thinks otherwise ;-)

I just roll my eyes and be thankful we have two computers.

Some people like the battles. That party can be understood, but the tedium of some of that stuff is just suicide-inducing.

I like sci-fi better than fantasy anyday

It's the interaction.  I loved the game cause I played with some cool people.  I stopped playing the game after I found out those people where douche bags.  The actual game itself really didn't mean much.

Only game I've played online was Combat Flight Simulator 3, and I didn't care about interacting with people, unless interacting meant blowing 'dem scumbag summamabitches outta the sky.  :evillaugh:

I'd rather play TF2.

And it's free, except for buying the game itself (hint: get the Orange Box).

You've never seen the episode?

For us Southpark fans that have been there since the beginning, their graphics have come a LOOOOONNNNGGGGGGGGG way.  :-)

No. :-)

I haven't watched South Park in a long time.

That was a pretty funny episode. S/P is one of those "married sex" things -- it is great when I do it but I can't seem to get enthusiastic.

My Comcast HD DVR is full of nothing but Southpark...with the exception of about 4 movies.

MSB, your statement reminds me of a Star Trek TNG episode where the entire crew became addicted to some stupid assed video game.


Kev, Soutpark is OK, sometimes, but it's also mind numbing..... :tongue:
