World of Warcraft hits 7 million subscribers

Sep 8th 2006 3:10AM (Joystiq)
You can most certainly blame the game, because these games are designed to keep the people addicted to the game. I for one have a brother who's addicted to WoW and my dad seems to be dependant on it. My brother used to play other games that were better. Now he ONLY plays WoW and no other game. The only other things he does with his time are work and watching a movie or TV show while playing WoW when he's not in a raid. Or he looks at a video related to WoW, or goes on WoW related forums, or watches a movie/TV show before he sleeps. When TV shows are on that are worth watching the whole family enjoys my brother watches it together with us, but we had to force him to do it, otherwise he'd just watch it in his room. Although if he's in a raid or something important like that for WoW, then you won't see him join us.

No matter how often I recommend him to try out X game because I think he'll enjoy it, he never does and has no intrest in it. My brother also got very angry when I confronted him about his addiction.

I used to play the game a lot, and I stopped playing for a long time. Then I got back into it and now i've quit for good realising how bad the game is at lvl 60. The game is designed to make you grind on a regular basis for hours on end. Why? So you can engage and have a chance in those rare occasions you'll experience a fair PVP situation. Sure, the burning crusade will let you gain powerful gear through this point system in pvp. However, you'll be able to gain more points to purchase more powerful stuff, so in the end your still going to be grinding with the rest of those zombies playing the game so you can engage and have a chance in those rare occasions you'll experience a fair PVP situation.

This is what world of warcraft is, the destroyer of lives and one of the most unbalanced games ever made. I hope your happy, Blizzard.
