I hear ya. Played from release and quit in February in order to follow up to the release of SC2. Never been happier. WoW was too time consuming, and the game hasn't really been fun since Vanilla in my opinion.

Bring on the SC2.

Most people spend more time playing WoW than they would playing SC2. Wasting is well worth it if you're having fun, so why not? It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks about you, just do what you want and play what you want.

good job, you should have quit WOW a lot earlier though, you would have saved lots of money and time!


U don't save money at playing other games than WoW actually. Because 13e / month is a lot cheaper than buy a 60/70e game frequently. :o

What if you don't buy game frequently? Say you buy SC2 and never buy any other game.. you're saving money.

Its more fun than doing absolutely nothing, which tends to be the alternative.

ah moste people hm? well what od u think how much out of this million do u know 2 say "most"? its not about the game its the people so if they will also do it in SCII. i mean forexample i see osme posts "while i have a 30min break i can play 1 stacraft game" i mean srsly? ur telling me they are any "better" than any wow player in this case?

playing a freaking computergame when u have a break from work or whatever. (mb laso go 2 some inetcafee).

but i think i will call myself genius from now on. sinc ei can manage 2 not sacr my life and still be "good" at wow ! even tho i stopped a while ago xD

I do have to jump in here and state that I really see no difference between WoW and SC2. It comes down to the player, the person behind the computer. If they have an addictive personality or find themselves enjoying a computer world more then the real world, they're going to obsess over whichever game they play. SC pros talk about playing 12 hour days. Some WoW players will play 12 hour days. When WoW expansions come out people will play for 24 hours straight. When SC2 comes out, many people here will play for 24 hours straight.

I think that SC2 is easier to play for small periods of time, because you can log on for half an hour and play a game or 2, where as WoW you'll accomplish minimal in that time. But at the end of the day, it all comes down to who's behind the computer and how obsessive they are.

Competitive wow rofl

6 years.. i pity you :S


I pity his wallet.

6 years + game + add-ons = 1080$ + 60$ + 50$ + 50$ + 50$ = 1290, call it 1300 for this month too.

Interesting how blizzard has to set the price so high for SC2 considering the huge range of gaming prices when you can easily calculate wow has earned them 5 to 8 BILLION dollars...


By the clack smack cracking of my thumbs, something wicked this may comes.

I had to hang up WOW a couple of years ago because quite frankly, it was hurting the rest of my life. As you mentioned, once at a high level the only way to gain anything is to raid for many hours many days per week, and since its all clan stuff, its all on a schedule.

Being the best healer we had didnt help either, since I got "insta-invite" everytime I logged on. Within 5 seconds I was in a raid group and ready to blow through hours and not get good sleep.

Being ultra competitive I wanted the best gear and to be the best healer on the server, so I kept doing it. Much like any drug in order to solve the problem I had to quit completely, so I gave my gold away and left the game.

SC2 is awesome, and you can watch a quick recorded game in 10 minutes and actually improve. In the 4 hours you would spend in WOW there is a whole lot you can do in SC2. You made a good decision.

Attacking wow on its price is dumb. 1300$ for 6 years of gaming? For how many hours?
Seriously, 1300$ for 6 years of entertainment is nothing, I don't know where you live to think the opposite.

Btw, all those wow players coming to sc2 is a very good thing. In ~1 years when they'll know how to play, sc2 competitive environment is going to be so big.

world of warcraft is baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalls.

this sums up my time in world of warcraft:

"yay battlegrounds will be coming out next year"
"wow, battlegrounds is terrible"
"yay arena will be coming out next year"
"wow, arena is terrible"
"oh well, raiding is still okay i guess"
"wow, raiding is terrible, why the hell am i playing this game again?"
