Should I start playing WoW again? All of my friends tell me not too but its just so damn tempting. I used to play and I remember how much fun it was, but the monthly fee thing is kind of a turn off. So what do you guys think, should I start playing WoW again, or just wait till AC2 and Modern Warfare 2 comes out?
Well, from my own exp. I restarted my account last week. A guy at work who still plays convinced me to. I played for three hours and then stopped for the day. I haven't turned it back on since. I personally just can't get back into. I say wait.

It really depends on what you want to do. I recently quit myself (3 weeks ago) if you are into the whole raiding scene the new raid instance is a joke. When I was in there with my guild we were 1 shoting every boss as they were released. But then again that was a high end raiding guild (top 500 North American servers). I never tried the new BG ( I was never into the whole PVP thing) but a lot of people seemed to like it if you have yet to experience Ulduar in all of its glory you should at least go through it once Blizzard did an amazing job with it.
Ya when I played I was totally addicted. Maybe its because I was 12 but I remember all me and my friends would talk about at school is how we were gonna party up and do some grinding
I've made the desicion not to go back, I really wouldn't have much time and I played the 10 day trial and / uninstalled after 15 mins of playing. Although I did spend a good hour pissing kids off
I tried starting D2 and LoD again ever since I joined this forum. Attempted 4 times...with friends, solo, specific char bulds (didn't try mods though) etc. and I could never play more than a few hours before uninstalling.

lol it can still easily be a ranger since who said you cant shoot arrows at melee distance xD

The Barbarian is from Arreat, a very cold snowy mountain top, but they are much tougher than normal humans, so they don't need warmth.

Where are Barbarians originally from? Sumeria, or more specifically Mesopotamia, AKA Europe. Think the Alps and the Pyrenees

That's nice but the thread is about World Of Warcraft.. reading the first posts in a thread is generally a good thing to practice.
WoW is just as fun as Diablo they're just different games. WoW you'll need to invest literally hours of time a day to play, if you have the free time to do that I suggest doing so before Cataclysm to get back in the swing of things, it's going to be awesome.

If your friends are telling you not to, it probably means that they enjoy having you around and you shouldn't deprive them of that by going back to WoW. My personal experience is that it is very easy to underestimate the amount of time that WoW can consume and also easy to overestimate how much you are really going to get out of that time spent...

It really depends. Do you play because you like to be the best and show off what you've achieved, or do you play to pass time and don't really care how you stand as long as you enjoy the in game music and scenery?
I used to play competitively but quit a few months ago. You can be proud of your shiny new gear, shiny awesome 310% speed mount, awesome reputation as top guild, etc but in a few month's time when a new patch is released, all of these become outdated, everyone and their moms eventually get what was once "exclusive to hardcore players" and the whole process repeats itself.
It was fun when my guild was one of the only two guild on the entire server to get this mount: (I know, it wasn't that hard, just took a lot of time)
fast forward 6 months later... new patch is out, all the awesome "elite" gear from Ulduar is now outdated, and this once exclusive mount is now all over town Don't get me wrong, WoW is fun when played with friends, but eventually, the whole process of: "A. See new content -> B. Get new gear -> C. Gear gets outdated -> back to A" gets boring.
Agreed with Vexione. I enjoyed to leveling part, to a degree. Then, I got into a raiding guild and started doing raids. That was fun as all get out. Then it turned into rinse and repeat. I did a year of that, met some really great friends on Firetree and, to this day, I still have the reputation for being the "best holy pally with the unholy mouth".
I just love Vent.

Avast ye! Scyberdragon be te thank for the sig, arr!
It's the 10-Player Uldu mount :).. Top Guild's should have cleared 25man And did you got it with Uldu gear or with Totc??
When we got the 10 Ulduar mount, our 25-man Ulduar raid group had just killed Yogg so we did it using a mix of 10-Man ulduar gear, a few 25-man pieces, and badge/token gear Ulduar was still new back then so it was a wipe fest, lol. Most fun hard-mode was probably Mimiron.
I ended up quitting again after work became craziness. I might go back... I doubt it though. After having played since Beta... I think I'm finally done. MW2, L4D2, and SMT:I every now and again have kept my interest when I'm not at work, or sleeping.

with Cataclysm things will look alive again. as long as there's new content there's always fun.
even now the some pre-cataclysm quest chains are starting on the servers (Zalazane's end and Assault on Gnomeregan or something). I'm really tempted to get some game time.
