are you a man child?
is your mentality still in your 16 years old age?
OFC
but when you have a family and you are more than 30 years old ,
your hobbies should be more mature too
I think as others have pointed out, what is fun or meaningful is very subjective. Comes down to personal preference really.
For me it would be:-
- Raiding
- M+
- Transmog
- Achievements
- Mounts
- Professions
- Reputation
- Toys
- Pets
- Weekly Quests
I agree. Although possibly too broad a subject to be just one of your ten activities.
I suggest doing all the Glory achievements in dungeons and raids. Most reward a mount but they are quite fun trying to figure out how to do them (mechanics can be tricky on some). Most are soloable but some do require a group, so getting some friends to help can be good.
Then define “mature” because i have seen 80+ year old people act like asshats when they watch sports and i have seen adults go ballistic while talking about history and or politics.
And i have seen people like my father go to grave as bitter as they come because they desperately tried to act like mature common adult without any joy in their life.
Dont rise to the bait, to some snotty nosed 12 year old, clueless about life.
I do what I want in life, not what people think you should be doing.
Lol i dont think playing video games makes anyone childish or a "man child’ your logic is very warped.
Actually no. U find youve gotten this backwards.
When ur 30 with a family, u cant go out as much u cant do any of that. My parents got into gaming because they were parents. Lol.
Gaming isnt a “immature” hobby. Playing it excessively and losing ur job through addiction might be considered immature sure. But ur talking a extreme now.
Gaming is a hobby that doesnt require you to leave the house. Which is generally what u need if ur a parent.
In ur younger years u should be out there making friends and learning things, id show larger concern to a 15 year old starring at a pc screen 4 hours a day then a adult, i can tell u that for sure lmfao.
Very ironic.
True, and appreciate the list.
But tbh, it’s kind of also a list of (nearly) every endgame activity there is in WoW. Do you enjoy all of it?
I enjoy the things on my list. There are other aspects of the game I don’t enjoy and some that have been removed that I hated which is good.
I am not someone who enjoys PvP which is a shame because it’s where I am missing the most achievements. I don’t like World PvP much either where it’s rarely ever done as a fair fight. PvP battling also does not interest me.
Sometimes I just like to do things on my own and other times I prefer to be playing with friends/guildies. Raiding is fairly structures and requires set days of the week. M+ is more flexible. With less chores in the game, I’m able to log and and do stuff I like as opposed to having to grind something first.
I don’t concentrate on all of those at once. At the start of a season the priority is gearing/progress so it would be more M+ and regular raiding. We are currently on a raid break and I’ve barely bothered to do any M+ over the last month. So I have more time for the collection side of things.
the problem is in a normal week there’s nothing casual to do in end-game that will help you with your progress. for example, reputations used to give some sort of important rewards that you can use as alternative items in end-game. right now they all becam pretty empty in the way of making things casual. at first weeks of df you could farm open world stuff that you can use in m+ as an early gear but the emphasis on ‘’ early ‘’ all those citadel stuff etc. became instantly useless after first month. i think they should’ve at least increased the item level of the items you can earn from open world which could also serve as a catch-up gear. i know you can upgrade the primal gear but the time and effort it requires does not match the reward on that one.
Early on in the expansion on my main or later on alts I get my gear from renown, professions, weekly quests like renown/TW etc. The catch up system with the Forbidden Reach has meant that my alts have all my spare gear tokens which has boosted them up. I did start doing the tW on all of them but it became too much of a chore that I haven’t bothered other than the first two weeks. I could farm the upgrade tokens for the alts but again not something I want to spend time on so I haven’t but the gear would be 395 then. There is also the ring from the Forbidden Reach which fully upgraded reaches 424 ilvl.
Obviously an open world player isn’t likely to reach the same gear level as a Mythic raider or someone who fills their M+ vault every week but on the other hand they don’t need that high a level either.
well definitely not with this open world content lol
forbidden reach was great but it came out too late imo. everyone around me already had their alts at 395. i found it quite useful as a returning player but i don’t think it served much to people who care about alt gearing since they’ve already done that part. you clearly did not want to bother with alts as you stated .
I don’t gear my alts via things other than open world and it was great for mine.
history
politics
this 2 are not childish for a man who is 35 years old with 1-2 kids
but playing a video game is/
god…
even your chat is childish.
punyelf is positive in everything and he is advertising for the game
no one does all of this 10 cases daily unless their time is ultra free or they want to waste it
No content in WoW is ‘meaningful’. It’s just pixels, data on servers somewhere. What matters is whether you enjoy it or not, so me giving a list of things that I enjoy wouldn’t be much use to you.
The aspect of WoW that I do find meaningful is the friendships I’ve made as a result of playing. I find connecting with other humans through activities that we enjoy has meaning for me. That’s why I mainly do group content (raid and M+), and the only reason I pug is if my friends aren’t around and I want to tick boxes on my weekly/seasonal ‘to do’ list.
