I gave into peer pressure (close friend of mine played a lot, and knew I'd fit right in his guild apparently) and gave the trial a spin. It was pretty much what I feared; a grind-addiction game that I'm all-too-familiar with.Vhite said:I dont like it either but I used to play it so I know it has some good parts. But now I wouldnt play it even if it was for free.
Given that I want to put serious effort into my schooling and future employment, I decided to not give into the grindy-doom that is WoW. My ultimate rationale is that no matter how amusing the social interactions might be, I can still do better things with my friends.
EDIT: I've forgot to do this twice now. Not that anyone gives a shit, but yeah, got Troll, tried again, got Gnome. Either makes sense to me.
