Age of the game and Cata.

I initially liked Cata and the content it provided. But it grew old fast and just didn't provide enough content(if any really) that was different from the norm. It was disheartening to see them remove potential side-advancement for characters outside of the gear treadmill. Then taking the easy route and proceeding to dumb down a lot of the important game mechanics (Hello Talent Trees), instead of fixing the the flaws.

If they ever show that they care about freshening up the game (reworking landscapes for re-rolls doesn't count). Trying some actual innovation for once that many other new MMO's are doing. ( I don't mean copy what the new companies are doing) I wouldn't hesitate to give the game a second chance.

I don't see them doing anything worth a mention before more interesting games come out. I'm sure the next expansion will tout some new and nifty things (provided ANYONE has a brain left on the WoW team). But I won't hold my breath that they won't just remove it before the expansion (Titan advancement), due to time constraints or whatever the excuse will be.

Just got bored with MMORPG game play and the community in general, probably because I just got too old for the genre. Really had nothing to do with WoW itself.

Age is hurting WoW more than anything else. Games are meant to be enjoyed, played until they are mastered, then you move on. I think the expectation for the same game to remain compelling and exciting for 10 years is unrealistic.


You mean, like Tetris? I agree. I mean, who plays Tetris for like 10 years straight? It takes like 30 seconds to master that game. Pathetic.

ANY future, of course. Ultima Online is still going.

A future worth playing, no, not for most people.

Cataclysm ended my need to play wow. I just play it now as a diversion until other games come along.



Exactly. Im just playing again because theres nothing else to play right now, not at all because I really love anything about the game anymore.



Pretty much this for me, except I'm not playing again, but still. I'm not going to buy Diablo 3, have never played other MMOs...I guess I'll just say that WoW is a diversion for me, and a time-killer. Not much more than that though.
