!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Are you telling me that WoW Forever isn't going to do the trick for me in a couple of weeks?

I see this image all the time and understand the intent behind it, but I'm curious to watch the clip in context to understand the nuance of the delivery. Source?

I want to believe... No but for real though, I feel like WoWF might actually work for because of the horizontal progression style. Every time I tried to play again I just didn't want to be on threadmill but it was mandatory. IF they can actually manage horizontal-ish progression then I can approach the game differently and get a new, different experience which won't be the flaming hot passion it was in my youth but also might not be all that bad, and more importantly compatible with my current lifestyle.

Or I'll just fall off (on?) the wagon again and cancel the sub, no Biggie.

Yeah, I think as long as they don't fall into the retail trap of making it incrementally easier and simpler until the challenge is gone, it'll be in good shape.

People enjoy the comaraderie of going through a difficult thing together, and gradually removing that also removes that opportunity.

Better pre purchase the deluxe mega edition to be sure

You're so right. Can't take any chances.
