When WoW ends..

[NeonZombie]

I've been thinking... What will happen when the world of warcraft severs are finally closed. I mean at the minute there is about 10 million subscribers i think? And there is a growing majority of them who are raiding set times every other day i think it is. When this virtual time consumer finishes there will be a mass of people with probably wasted talent that will have new oppurtinities. Now, you might think im joking and in a way it sounds silly but in some cases it's true. Imagine if there were no more MMO rpgs What would this vast majority of the gaming community do instead?

What would you do if wow closed tomorrow?

And there was no eve

Im guessing no one plays runescape anymore anyway.


Sorry if there has been a thread similar to this btw

There would be a lot of people looking for a relationship.

What would I do?

Rejoice.

Cancer, Aids and 3 unknown pathogens would cured within 2 weeks of MMO Servers being shut down.

How silly...WoW doesn't "end".

People would find something else to do.

They'd move on to a different MMO.

I can't see the genre being eliminated any time soon.
Also, WoW isn't closing any time soon.

 

[Erana]

People would die.

I would laugh until the world implodes.

why not?

And this is hypothetical btw

All the people that played WoW would go LARPing and actually murder (innocent) people in their outrage of insanity.

 

[Anachronism]

The unfortunate truth is that WoW will only end if/when Blizzard releases WoW 2.

Or Universe of StarCraft.

Death

I assume they'd find something else to do, like knitting, or maybe bird calls.

It wouldn't affect me in the slightest. I have never played and have never wanted to.

I only know one friend who plays it and for them it would just mean they spend all their free time on a different game/s.

How silly...WoW doesn't "end".

pretty much this.

 

[GothmogII]

I'm a gamer, why should I stop gaming just because WoW ends? MMO's are just one type of game genre within their respective genres. (Fantasy MMO, Sci-Fi MMO etc.) If there were no MMO's well...I'd just go play some other game.

You can't "beat" WoW.

On that day, we will see a lot of nerds going suicide...

 

[JaredXE]

The only reason WoW would shut down is if there was something even better out there taking it's user base away, and so they would be playing that instead of WoW. Then again, Everquest is still around, so maybe WoW wouldn't shut down.

Lol! Plus the creators will mysteriously vanish and be held for ransom.

I'd compare it to when Wall-E knocks that computer screen away from the woman in her lazyboy!
