Ok so I havent’ wrote much lately! I know, terrible. Been busy at the college, ugh so terrible. This quarter schedule sucks! Anyways, onto some of the more interesting things I’ve been thinking.
So how is everyone enjoying patch 3.1? I’d hope so but as for me, I’m…not. Sure okay, having a wolf top dps is kind of new (I mean, other than raptor and devilsaur), but it doesn’t make up for the crap lately. I guess I’m just burned out of WoW, or at least, some of the annoying people who trample through it.
For example, the DPS-gear checking fiends. Now sure, you’re running Naxx or Ulduar and you want to make sure that you’re bringing the dps you need. That’s totally necessary. But lately, I’ve been noticing a trend of players who seem to think the dps-check is necessary for everything, such as Heroic Nexus.
Now you can argue with me all you want about how you need a dps-check for it, but in reality, you don’t. You get to level 80, you get some blues, you run heroics til you can run Naxx, and then the same thing all over again until you can run Ulduar. That’s pretty much the entire gist of the game. The major problem with dps-checks is, is that if you only want people in full epics to run Heroics, then you’re not allowing the players who do need Heroic gear to gear up.
It’s a vicious circle.
But more annoyingly, such elitism is being spread rampantly and this sense of elitism is really killing my mood and I think the game. Hardcore raiders can complain all they want that the game is “catered to the casuals”, but, is it really? How is making Ulduar easier 'catering to casuals' if casuals can’t even gear up to Naxx because some guy won't let you heal H-Utgarde Pinnacle?
Just a random thought from me. Perhaps I shouldn’t write at 11:34 PM or maybe I’m just “too” casual. Hmmm… or maybe Resto Druid is getting to me... all plausible.
