The Nadir

The more I hear about Legion, the less interested I am in playing it.

Maybe it's just grumpiness over Blizzard yet again messing with tanking and healing.  The endless pendulum swing between little hits, little heals, and HO SHIT THE TANK GONNA DIE BETTER BLOW A COOLDOWN is just ... I'm over it.  Every damn xpac it switches back and forth at the beginning, and by the end it's "pull the dungeon lol" because you outgear everything.  Whatever.

I talked before about not particuarly liking the artifact weapons.  That hasn't changed.  And now there will be legendaries also, which are random drops?  Fuh.

I mean I don't think I'm "done," exactly.  I do know my interest is waning.  If I weren't working on the dragon staff and the ring on my druid, plus earning a couple thousand a day from garrison missions, I probably wouldn't be logging in at all.  But that's genuinely all I can seem to dredge up motivation for.

I don't think I'm going to pre-order Legion.  Not this time.  Not unless I rediscover the passion between then and now.  It's all a question of what I'm still getting out of the game -- I don't have friends who play, I don't have a guild, I don't really care about the story anymore.  I should be putting my time towards more productive ends, pursuing hobbies that will, I don't know, be meaningful.  WoW isn't improving my life in any way, it's just a time sink.  Time sinks are okay in moderation but ... I don't know.  I think about how much time and effort it'll take to gear up my toons yet again come Legion and I just don't fucking want to.

WoW's always gonna be there, for certain values of "always."  Maybe it's okay for me to leave it behind, and only come back to visit every so often.
