    get it finally! U cant get addicted to a game, games are made to make some fun for u and ur friends, its not last century where all u could do is playing normals games when it was nice and play table games when its bad weather.. its new age and playing a simple game every day is nothing bad, even if u do it 15 hours a day lol, its just ur choice what u want to do.. and if u have no self discipline wow could be only the first thing that could make u addicted.. the prob is ppl dont rate u by ur

  8. aaddrreennaalliinnee says:

    face and cloths as in real life, but they rate u by gears/team ratings, which, if u can’t take it, makes u play more to look good, in short they all want to be the king’s of wow, which, in the end, is not possible.. so just if u want to be something else than what u r in ur real life, u play games, bad thing is when u want to be better in the game than in ur own life

    Good job on that documentary ,and my solution is that people should learn how to make things going they should have time for all stuff for work and for a game and for a relax and if not they should leave the game its gona take over you i have been addicted to it for like 3 years bad tme in school but now my 4th year i play that game i have made my time so that i have time for play and it dont react on my life

    WoW is just like most things in life: take it in moderation. Don’t let it control you and you’ll be fine.

    all these docs do good as they are is is make me want to play WoW

    that timer solution …
    that timer solution should be made world wide, that would work well. You could solve issues of health by attaching a bike mechanism that generates electricity when pedalled.

    And the adverts are nothing like the game (i tried the free trial, i think wow is shit)

    Welcome friends, into the 20th century.
    Where the digital world dominates the lifestyle of many many many young and old people.

    Who’s to blame? Well not Blizzard, they where brilliant enough to bring a game this profitable on the market.

    From my point of view the gamer itself is to blame. Its their own personal choice. I used to play this game aswell, and it took me loads of effort to break free from its addiction. And even now, so much time later. I still feel the side effects.

    If the player stop …
    If the player stop playing, Blizzard Entertainment might have money issues, which could bring the servers to get down, and, slowly, the game to disappear, denying its addiction. Warcraft is probably the biggest issue in all game addictions.
    Blizzard Entertainment will never delete the game by itself because they gain a lot of money. If we want to, we have to show them, because they won’t.
    P.S. This game is all about money!

    notice most of them are hord, the hord suk in pvp on my server! ^^

    Now, could the ‘’specialists” stop making fake youtube accounts and post, acting as 13-14 year old people who regret their ”addiction” to the game?

    i can tell you this:
    NO GAMER IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE IS GOING TO START A CHAT LIKE: Oh hey, i’m so depressed about playing so much of game X that i even had skipped classes and my results at school are going bad, and my social life does not exist, and i’m wasting my childhood.

    COME TO SENSE PEOPLE, EVERYONE NEEDS FUN.

  24. Minip2hn says:

    so what? it doesn’t …
    so what? it doesn’t affect you, let the weak minds die and the great ones prosper, we are living in an overpopulated world anyways.

    horde.. and druids are fun cause they can be tanks dmg or healers not jsut one of them cause they are shapeshifters. they can be bears cats chetahs boomkins trees and have an instantcast fightform
