On the off chance that people still check these boards me, Shin and Cern are still playing WoW - I've recently brought the Warlords of Draenor expansion and I must say I'm very imrpressed, I quickly leveled a character from level 1 to level 60 then used the free boost to level 90 (you can use this from a level 1 character but I wanted to look at the old world after cataclysm), and so far I'm enjoying it.

Level 90 to 100 wasn't to hard and there are clear zones/waypoints to help you get there and along with the ability of having your own garrison (which you can customise however you like) makes this expansion stand out.

I've been level 100 for a couple of weeks now and I still have plenty of things to do i.e. trying out the battle pet system and treasure hunting.

If anyone is looking for something to play then it would be good to see you online - Horde - Skullcrusher server (PVP)

Never say never, but I doubt I'll ever replay WoW. Did it after Pandaria was out and while questing was fun, it was also very easy. I reached level 90 in no time, but as I only finished half the zones I continued questing. But after that it was basically the same daily quests/dungeons/rep grind to gear up, even the farm you had was basically just a set of daily quests to do. Thunder Isle (or whatever the name is exactly) was fun (& hard) at first, but it too became a grind eventually. And once I got the gear it meant I had to start raiding to improve my gear.

To me it just felt exactly like before (there is a lot more to do, but it's basically the same formula). Every MMO suffers from this tbh, end game content expanding, but becoming more of the same eventually. I've had a lot of fun in WoW over the 7 years or so I played, but I just lost interest in it.

So, you guys still playing WoW?

I think DAoC was different, instead of a gear grind you had a RP grind granted but when fighting players, the bar is set higher.  Not only do you have to play well like when raiding a hard boss but you have to outplay them, or have the right combo of classes or abilities used correctly to win.

I haven't played a mmorpg for an age, kinda miss them tbh.  Dunno if I'll go back though.
