Where would you be without wow?

[Tom Ganks]

Successful relationship? Children? Higher education? Better financial situation/better job?

Just think of all the possibilities of things that could have gone down in your life if you had just said "no" to wow in the very beginning. I'm not saying wow is a bad thing, it it may or may not have been a positive change in your life.

Or would you have just picked another game to play?

In my mind I would say to myself without WoW, I would be able to focus on school and actually do my work.

On a real note, I'd find a new game and become addicted as I am to WoW xD

 

[Tom Ganks]

I'd work out more without wow. I still work out, but I'm not swole like I wanna be.

 

[Faerondil]

Ruling the world with an iron fist as the Anti-Christ... Lucky for the rest of you I found WoW in 2007!

In real life, I think I'd probably be in the same position. I've played a lot of WoW but I never gave it priority over important real life stuff. Without WoW, I would've probably just played another game and ended up a bit less / more bored.

But without WoW, I wouldn't have met a bunch of seriously awesome people though the game. I spent a lot of time with them on skype and in-game, although I don't get to log on that much nowadays. I'm looking forward to hanging out with them during upcoming holidays.

I always wonder, if I hadn't picked up F2P WoW and made a character on that server when my real life friend told me to, what would have happened (in relation to all those people I met online)? Would I have picked another game or server, and ended up meeting completely different people? Would I have instead just sat playing a single-player game?

But I'm glad it turned out this way. Wouldn't have had it any other way.

playing another game probably.

Your comment left a tear in my eye.

Or would you have started twinking in the first place without that?

I'll be doing the same things

I really only have used WoW from 2010 -2014 just to pass time / overcome boredom.

Back from 2006 - 2009 I was canceling plans to make time for WoW.


I like to think that the game has not held me back a considerable amount in the more recent years! I will say it has taught me a great deal about economics, communities, leadership, game mechanics and the success stories and failures of each subject.

It has also sparked creativity on many levels.

But I will admit the first few years of me playing was many hours wasted with very little to show for it (gfd gear, old toons etc). Although I am glad to have experienced the game back in the "glory days" and the priceless memories that I still reminisce.

No doubt my GPA for the first few years (1.2) would have been closer to what I finished in 2011 with (3.9)

I have good grades, I am good at math and physics. My life without WoW would be meaningless... I started playing Warcraft when i was 8 and now I am 19. This game is the best one I've ever seen.

Wait you are successful at school and mathematically inclined, yet you think life would be useless without wow? What do you plan on doing with those thinking skills when school's out? (assuming you are in college)

xD no pressure

 

[l30t53dd6p]

Would have bought Ps3 & Ps4 and probably would have done more music producing/remixingmixing and would have been another famous dj from the Netherlands ;-)

 

[Akilleez]

To be truthful, without wow i would have probably ended up in jail. Before i found the game i led an entirely different life. Now my life has changed i feel i could probably achieve more if i spent less time playing but i do think without it i would have been far worse off.
