Yeah, I played WoW and free isn't what I'm looking for. I love PvP, accessibility (I'm a dad and have a full time job), and a big world to play in with other people. That's why I like MMOs, and I hope I can find one that doesn't force me to put my life on the side in order to play enough to get things like end game gear. Shadowlands had soooo many systems that ended up being pure time sinks. They weren't even fun. The fact the company doubled down on those systems in 9.1 was too much for me. I don't have time for that and I want to have fun. I.E. not being crushed by other players simply because they have more time to get high IL gear!
Yeah, I know what you mean, I myself am a dad of 2, and getting some playtime is hard for sure.
We will have enough activities for the hardcore players and for the casual ones, so not to worry about that.
We want to make a good game, where everyone can have fun and enjoy.
