Why did YOU quit WoW?

[Cribanox]

Me personally, I quit WoW when The Burning Crusade came out because I thought it was stupid that a level 61 green item was better than my blue items. I wasn't a hardcore player, very casual, played a lot of BG's and really enjoyed the world, the environment.

I tried replaying it throughout the years, making a few other characters to lvel 50-60. I tried again last year, with a brand new paladin with no gold or anything. They introduced that random dungeon finder when I was around level 30. I didn't leave stormwind until level 60 or 70 because I didn't need to. I think they've dumbed down the game so bad, it's incredibly easy and boring. There's no effort in anything you do.

Even around 60 the dungeons got stupid easy. Just AOE tank everything in sight, no crowd control, no sense of danger. Just grind the same 30 minute dungeon over and over and over... I didn't wanna do that anymore. And PVP hasn't interested me since the Arena was launched. What a joke, they tried to make wow an e-sport, when they can't even balance PVP. PVP, when I quit, was very one-shot based. I always liked playing a healer in battlegrounds, running around helping people get out of sticky situations.

Anyway, now adays I don't think I could ever go back, not even if they made people actually stay awake and use crowd control in dungeons again.

I quit when they introduced the random dungeon groups. I basically never left Dalaran after that.

And you're right. I played a paladin tank and I basically pulled the entire zone and group AoEed it down.

Same. WotlK raiding is also dreadfully boring. No CC required, huge margins for error, DPS is totally out of control.

WoW was never a terribly difficult game beforehand, but there were certain events that took skill and gearing (e.g. - in the past expansion: Lady Vashj). The only remotely challenging LK encounter without getting into achievements was Malygos, and that was only because mouthbreathers couldn't figure out how to press 1, 1, 3 or whatever it was.

1) I got a real job

2) I hated the changes that were going to come in the first xpac, 25 man raids, pally/sham on either side.


It was semi depressing leaving though.. Had lead a top server guild with my best RL friend for over a year and had made many good friends.. My RL friend couldn't keep up by himself and other good leadership was hard to come by.. the guild dissolved and changed over the year after I quit.

And WOW was full of to many children who could barely play.
