I quit the game in 2015 because 6 months mount farm without any drop. Then tried the game again in 2023 and played 90 days. I said to myself if i dont get atleast 1 mount drop i dont sub again. So i didnt. Now thats every other game with rng makes my unhappy i tried wow again. I really like of of the following mounts. Nalak, invincibles reins, tolvir mount or the legion karazhan mount. But i dont have the motivation and dont want to ruin another few years for a mount. I really want to get rewarded. I have very bad mood from past rng games i played. So much time spend without getting rewarded. How difficult can it be to make someones day? Just a small virtual thing can make me enjoy games again. But every game makes me mad. The game is made to keep players playing. But without nice loot i cant continue.
You can farm up nalak in Remix.
As to the rest, if rng farming annoys you then wow isn’t the game for you.
I just want to experience them one time. Sure i really wanted them but wow has also changed too much to get back in. Now this new login screen is a mess. Its too much to learn. I also would like to experience old dungeons one more time but i only see expansion dungeons. No nostalgy things. And vanilla wow is too hard. Sometimes i am depressive. And gaming makes it worse. If i keep going to the gym then i feel better. But when i am at home and i play some games its most times bad. I have no concentration for other things. Adhd. But in a few weeks hopefully i get the medicine back i had before.
Once a game starts to make you feel bad you should just stop playing it. Any game.
No one really cares about your achievements or your bragging rights. No one cares which mounts you have or what your mog is like. It’s all pointless, except for if you have fun doing it… and it sounds like you aren’t anymore.
1 billion percent!
Hense why I never play mobas or battleroyale games any more as I get extremely toxic/angry in them, and I have high blood pressure, so it’s not a good mix xD
Sounds like the lingering aftermath of an escape from addiction. Why would you want to return to an unrewarding and derelict Skinner box like WoW mount farming?
it is annoying and they could do something like a guaranteed drop at 200th try for mounts for example , ik 200 is too much but at least there would be a cap. wow is filled with rng . like they said you can get Nalak. even if you get other mounts you might get bored soon if your purpose is specific loots so i’d suggest you to change that mindset because it’s always rng in most games, try to enjoy the experience and if u don’t maybe try other games. there are mmos you can 100% get mounts and then pay for skins
The thing is: the moment rare mounts become buyable they lose over half of their appeal to most. Rarity means value. Sure at the end of the days they are just skins but it applies to those as well.
The moment I knew all those rare MoP mounts would become buyable I realized less people would be seen riding these. Astral/nalak/WB mounts, all buyable after only half a day playing.
Getting invincible after years of trying felt amazing. I’m not saying they should stick to the age-old ‘1% mount drop’, but something in between how remix handles ‘rare’ mounts and what we have in retail should be doable.
I seriously think you should take your own advice and quit. Play something other than an RNG based game. But, if you keep coming back to this or other similar games then you really only have yourself to blame.
It’s RNG its nothing against you, its numbers luck… Mount farming its not always fun… Invincible took me 8 years with several characters. Then I tried to farm the serpent from the Sha but was ridiculous, so when Remix was announced I was so happy that we were going to be able to get that stupid low drop mounts. I am happy that hey implemented that, most of us does not have the time anymore to farm mounts with several characters each week… So you could try Remix and get Nalak it’s really easy now.
WoW has changed a lot since 2015 and it will take you some time to get used to, if you love it and wanna play don’t focus on mount farming, do something else. But as already said, if you are not having fun then you should quit and try other types of games.
I broke free from this a few years ago when I asked for my account to be deleted. I came back eventually and now just do things I enjoy, and I don’t collect mounts or pets anymore. I don’t know if that was a good way of curing the issue, but I have much more fun playing the game now without the burden of collections and the FOMO that comes with them.
I think when you’re at the point where you constantly resent the game or the people that make it, it’s best to re-evaluate your relationship with the game and ask yourself what you look to get from it. Gaming addiction is definitely a real thing, even if it gets downplayed often, so just quitting may not be trivial, but if that is the case and you realize it, you’ve already made progress.
The only addiction i have is to nice loot. Thats the problem for me. And many games have rng. But sometimes i wanted to try my luck or experience nostalgy. But most nostalgy is gone because of timewalking (chromie) i dont know how to queue for old dungeons. I think this also comes because the lvls got lowered.
And i think wow is not the real problem because i now only played for 2 weeks but the anger from bad luck in previous games came with me. So i cant expect i get karazhan mount within 5 tries. Only 5 tries because the westfall story was bugged and got only the kill in a carry. My dps is too low for 1 shot.
But the months i lost in diablo 4 for no uber uniques and more loot from other games. For years.
And thnx for the nice reply’s.
Just let it go… Beating a dead horse won’t give you anything .
Nostalgia?? perhaps yes … But what are you looking for ? To try replay something for old good memories ?? Nahh .
What are you looking for is in the past and you current play today … Just find some single player games …
I mean judging from what you write …since 2015… 2023… played for 90 day…quit …again …and again .
Mate this is a Mmorpg and fun is supposed to be when playing with other , having a chat =conversation and so on …
You are likely a loner and that’s totally fine by every aspect … But being a loner and playing alone in an mmorpg environment is somehow not fitting.
Would you enjoy hitting a ball alone or playing with 10-20 more people like a football games …this apply to this game as well .
You cant have everything what you wish on silver plater.
Once you get it, it’s valued cos its hard to get.
Btw wow not for you with your mentality.
All the years
