I've been playing on weekends since Early Access and at this point my main is at 606 iLvl, running LFR, Heroic dungeons, and 8 delves a week. I'm at a point where I'm certainly leveling off and probably will just do the new raid next week when it launches and the 8 delves. I may see a gear upgrade based not on iLvl but more likely stats (+crit or +haste for instance). As such, I'm working on my 1st alt, a new Earthen Horde character I created and having fun with that. Sometimes you just need to do something different! In fact, I've started Cyberpunk 2077 for the 1st time and may get back to FF XIV.
I think you worded it well. I have done all of the story quests and side quests for the game and the past two weeks I have been doing Heroic raiding (PUG). I think the pace in which I started by slowly taking in the story and time to enjoy this expansion has allowed me to not be "bored" yet. I am still enjoying Raids, PVP, Delves and I am planning to get into Mythic + shortly. For me it has been great taking my time this expansion to experience all of the content at my pace and not feel as if I am left behind. Do not plan on slowing down necessarily but it is nice to not feel the need to jump on every week or be left behind and not be able to experience content.
Sooo I haven't played WoW for like 10 years. I dropped off at the end of Draenor. Nostalgia hit me really hard and I wanted to play again so I resubbed and now I'm picking back up doing the Legion storyline. It's nice I can just go back and do all the expansions I missed without dropping a ton of money for each one.
I finished the campaign and played for a while after. Stopped a couple weeks ago now. I got to ilvl 600. WoW's endgame just isn't fun to me anymore. It isn't meaningfully different compared to what it's always been, even if there are some improvements. It just doesn't compare to modern games.
I have gone through pretty much all I wanted to do in this expac. i find professions overly complicated and not worth it. I skipped dragonflight and most of shadowlands so I may go back and do those.
Each expansion I ended up settling into a different groove. Vanilla: explore the different things BC: delving into lore Wotlk: tournament, raids, pvp Cata: fell off Mop: druid pvp Wod: pet and mount collection, also garrison table Legion: rep grind and raids Sea people: arena with my son
The other expansions I didn't finish because the story just was not pulling me along. And now when I need to waste some time I have a little raspberry pi that has all the wow I need on it.
I've been playing pretty much daily since this game came out. Taken a small break here and there across the years, but nowhere near the point you seem to be at. When I get a little bored, I'll just play another character. We're pushing for AOTC in the guild I run with, so our focus is still very strong as a group. I expect I'll be here when they turn out the lights.
I've played a ton during the first weeks. I'm a solo player with some casual friends, so I don't raid or do M+ with pugs. I've done a lot of delves and I really enjoyed them. But I am now in a situation where I can't progress my gear further because I can't obtain Runed Harbinger Crests (only 2 per bountiful delve, max 8 per day, need 15 per 3 ilvl upgrade), so I stopped doing delves or other content, because I can't get better gear with the content I can / like to play and I can't upgrade my gear, even though I'm capped out at valorstones. I recognize it is part my problem because I'm the one that is not doing group content, but I can't motivate myself to play M+ with randoms due to past tragic experiences and I can't raid because I can't commit to focusing 3-4 hours straight non stop due to IRL affairs. I'm still motivated to play WoW, but I'm waiting the next wave of content that I can do solo to come back (which won't take long, anniversary patch is coming very soon). So in the mean time, I'm playing Metaphor ReFantazio 🙂
I used to love wow and I tried the expansion and just can’t get into it for some reason. I’m finding I like going to other mmos like swtor and just get lost in those stories. There’s something about games and expansions today where I just can’t stick with it. I just want that new older school experience, can’t quite put my finger on it but it’s what I like. I’m in my 40’s and have been gaming all my life, just feel like it’s not as great as it used to be.
Ive played my main to 80 and raided via lfr to a gear store of near 600. Ran an alt to 80 and gs to 585 on my alt. Looking for a good guild to raid with and do Mythics Horde side

I’ve decided to really try tanking earnestly for the first time in 18 years and I’m loving it, I wish I had started years ago

Luckily the anniversary patch is next week so there will be some more stuff to change up the routine
I’ve been enjoying the expansion, there’s a ton of excitement for me since it’s been ten years since I last played. Just hit 80 the other day.

This was the first week I haven’t logged in yet, getting about a 2 week break until new patch next week

I am not. I am in LOTRO instead. Much happier there. I am excited for Turtle WoW 2 though.
