I tend to ramble, sorry. This is directed to our greatly gutted CS to pass on to whomever handles such feedback/complaints. I did not post in GD, because I’m not discussing anything. This is just directed at decision makers.
For the past 20 years, I was a work at home mom, part time. Gave me plenty of time to be a gamer and do all the things that games required me to do. My kids don’t need me at home so much now and I’ve got my eyes on a new house, so I got a job to make getting that new house easier. Turns out, 20 years of letting Alton Brown teaching me to cook really well gave me an in demand skill
So anyway. I got a job, BfA dropped. Where in Legion (and before), I had time and did everything I was interested in (all 12 class questlines and mounts, all professions, pathfinder 1 and 2 right away, etc), I have no time to do much in BfA. I think I’ve done one lfr. I managed to get pathfinder one and the first 2 allied races while I was part time, but it’ll probably take me another year to get to two, now that I’m full time.
Time that I make to play involves logging into my main horde and alliance, groaning at the 4 WQs I need to do for pathfinder and the allied races, usually not doing them, and playing an alt for 30-60 minutes before I’m too tired to do more. This is usually maybe once a week.
Yes, I COULD spend that time only doing the same thing (WQs) every time, but really, that sucks. A lot. You can’t argue that. I like leveling alts, but that gives me no way to get me the allied races I want (so I can …level more alts). Could I force myself to log in for an hour every night and knock it out like everyone else? No, actually not. The only reason I’m posting this now, instead of a month or two ago, is I finally had a day of loafing - dentist appointment this morning and the resulting pain has kept me from being busy.
Look, I said I tend to ramble.
Anyway. There’s one thing I can do, and enjoy, no matter how busy I am and that is level alts. I’d simply like to be able to get allied races easier, as a super casual. Because I don’t have the will to use my limited play time to only do WQs and rep work. Out of all the decisions Blizzard has made these past few years, this extreme gating for basic content blows on an EA scale. I’m getting close to unsubbing, been thinking about it for months. Thought I’d give my thoughts on why I’m getting to that point. I’ve got my mag’har to level and then I think I’m done.
Sorry for regulars having to read this drivel if this gets moved to GD, it wasn’t my choice.
