Blizzard Predicts Renewed WoW Growth in 2010
- Thread starter Andy Chalk

I played WoW for over four years and quit almost a year ago now and Catacylsm has not really done anything to make me want to come back, that being said i will wait until it has been out for a few months to see what it is really like and then decide if i want to go back but it will have a lot of competition for me, especially from Guild Wars 2 and Final Fantasy 14.
Been playing Wow on and off for ages and from what I can tell, they are effectively going to be releasing an entirely new game, from the bottom up. So yes, there will be new playerts, but I suspect not as much as returning ones. Because really, once blizzard has its claws in your soul, you're trapped forever.
I've been playin WoW for a while and honestly, when everything was announced for Cataclysm last year, it pretty much killed my motivation for playin any more WoW. It seemed to me like this x-pack is pretty much changing the whole warcraft lore to something that i just don't like.
I was the kind of person that always read the quest logs and got into the little story arcs for different zones, but with this giant shift in the game and the changing class/race combos... i just don't like what they are changing. It seems to me like they are grasping at straws, adding things that people have been crying to have for ages just so they can keep people from leaving their game and moving to a better one.

2 years i played WoW ........a serious waste of time and money in retrospect my mate still plays so ill just look at the changes in cata when he gets it shrug and go back to EVE or The Old Republic if its out
Holy necro, Batman!
Aye, I'll be back. But the thing is, I never left because of gameplay issues or quitting on principle. I had to put down the WoW due to circumstances beyond my control, and now I'm stuck out in the middle of nowhere with no usable internet. I do have plans to correct this, and return to playing WoW when I am able. So I may come back before Cataclysm hits, fate permitting.

I keep tossing around the idea of returning to Wow after cata but I think im pretty much done. I played from 6 months after launch all the way to right before ice crown patch came out and I think im done, most of my guild were the same way. I think that Blizzard is gonna have to realize that a large portion of the old guard is retiring Wow and they need to think more of rotating in new players. With cata and star wars coming out very close together (for the mmo market) itll be interesting to see how the competition for new players turns out. Personally, Im a Bioware AND Star Wars fan so looks like im gonna be surrendering the next 3 years of my life (and hopes of getting another girlfriend)to the Old Republic
