Is it weird I have no interest in end-game even with WoD coming?

[Vishfeast]

I'm in a dilemma here, when mop came out I pretty much played end game for raiding since SoO, always having twinks of course and I would occasionally log on and screw around. But since I killed normal garrosh in January and trying end game pvping a bit, I got bored and have pretty much been only twinking since. Now with WoD coming out in a month, I can only imagine there are players like my except that they will be playing end-game again to experience WoD. The sad thing is is i barely get any video game time anymore and I'm really not sure how much I'll be able to experience the content. With a predicted 20 hours game played to hit 100 that will take me a month with the amount of gaming I have been getting. So when the e-pac comes out, will twinking die for awhile and players will be excitedly doing all the end game content they can do or is there still gonna be die hard twinks only playing there favorite brackets?

1. I wanna keep playing WoW, but I'm afriad I won't have enough time for late game or to make anything of it.
2. I'm worried that I'll just be sitting in Goldshire, with nothing to do on my twink and waiting for days to see another 70 be there.

Would love to hear all of your input on this. Or if anyone is going through the same thing I am.

(I can't game as much because since the beginning of MoP I have started my life career)

Nope, it's perfectly natural to recognize what amounts to a gear treadmill and become bored of it. The people who continue to do it on alt after alt, expansion after expansion are the ones who are weird (if not a little bit insane). Personally, I reached the point you're at when TBC released, only doing end game when it appealed to me (which completely depended on what that content was looking like at the time).

What I also think really turned me off was.. The game is getting so big now, and in a way it needs to go down on simplicity. With all of these new things like garrisons and this new raiding system and different levels of tier. Its just getting so confusing and to actually get the most out of it, I would have to start off at square one of my teen days of gaming all day, every day. And it saddens me that I have been playing this game since Vanilla and blizzard has almost completely deterred me away from end game because of the time you have to put in.

If you are a LORE-Fan , you will have alot of interest in any end game content, there are so many hidden things, future projects bla bla bla, but if you know no lore, you will just do the quests to lv up, the raids just for gear etc, and yes it will be booring.
It is NOT WEIRD.

I play end-game just to get max output numbers as a dps in raiding and thats all. I have no interest in lore ( ain't got no time for that).

And therein lies Blizzard's biggest problem. They continue to develop mediocre content they can tack on to previous mediocre content, just doing enough to get people to buy it. As long as people continue to subscribe and buy mediocre content, Blizzard doesn't have to do anything new or innovative for their customers. Blizzard continues to confuse quantity for quality, producing content that qualifies as little more than time sinks. It's gotten to the point where Blizzard can't even excite or surprise players anymore unless they announce a feature that people have been asking for since the game launched. New player models? Player housing? Easily the most exciting part of the expansion.
