That’s a decent piano (says a fellow p-125 owner) but they live in the EU. Considering shipping, they might as well buy a new one and have it delivered.
I totally understand this. The thing you have to accept that nobody gets good at a musical instrument overnight. (Not even Mozart.) You have to accept that a LOT of practice is required (40 hours a day is the running joke), and you’re going to play like crap for a long, long time.
At least with piano, you can make a decent sound right out of the gate, unlike string or wind instruments. (Think how scratchy violins sound in beginner hands.) I highly encourage you to keep working to master your keyboard. It’s okay to play wrong notes, as long as you keep trying to get them right. If you can teach yourself to accept that you’re not going to be good without a lot of work, and that it’s okay to be bad for as long as it takes to get good, it might actually help you with your other personal issues.
The fact that you were able to master the dragon riding pretty quickly shows you can do things if you set your mind to it.
Yeah my biggest gripe besides my horrible selfesteem and self-critique is my nerve pains.
When I play too much clippitycloppity my finger joints start to hurt, and that seems to happen more frequently when playing piano.
Probably cause I have small hands and I try do some pretty big spread tones… xD
I’ll not give up, I promise. I just… procrastinate it … <,< cough
Honestly, don’t even try to plan the fun. Just pick something in game to do. If you’re having fun, then awesome! That’s your kind of content! If not? Well, on to the next thing! While the game has been made so you can do most of it without really interacting with others, it still is an mmo and is still vastly more fun to play with others. Sometimes when you’ve got the right people, it doesn’t even matter what you’re doing in game.
We’ve finally done it! We’ve found the mystical player that they designed the last 3 expansions for. The guy who actually thinks covenants were MeAnInGfUl ChOiCeS. That actually liked being forced into hours of boring as sin quests every day. The guy who relished running Choreghas on 7 characters every week. The type of player who thinks spending 8 hours a day on infinite grinds for 4 different borrow power systems is good game design.
If that type of player isn’t happy with the game currently that is a very very good thing. Good riddance.
Thanks! I’ll try to “just do things”. I probably end up staring too much cause I am just in general confused about the content, I guess.
I do like the wall climbing quests tho and when I see those I go do those. ^^
I’ll try figure out the game a bit more and see if I can find out why I have felt so bored with it/uninterested.
Probably lack of direction, and that overwhelmed me, after I was done leveling + dragonriding.
I’ll look into the renown stuff a bit more and see if theres anything that isn’t like the Wrathion grind… o.o
Seriously, if you are out of things to do, that is a “you” problem. The Dragon Isles are very rich in content and for MOST people, it’s gonna take weeks or months to settle in. People who gorge themselves on the content by hooking up an IV drip of Code Red Dew and playing for 3 days without sleep or work are the ones are the ones at fault if they are bored. Not Blizzard.
Dragonflight certainly has a much bigger learning curve in many aspects of the game (especially crafting). Which is why I’m flummoxed as to how people can be “out of content”.
My hands are very small, too (though I do have long fingers) and I have arthritis really bad in my right hand. My teacher has helped a lot with my pain. Turned out my self-taught technique was really bad. You have to keep your hands relaxed and play with your arms, not your fingers. If you can save up the money, I recommend getting some in-person lessons with a good instructor. Even if you can only afford two or three lessons, they’ll be worth it. Zoom lessons are another, usually less-expensive, option.
In any case, I do wish you well in your search for something to do.
Because every expansion was sold on the promise of “not being like the last one.”
Burning Crusade, Wrath, and Cataclysm all succeeded in their own ways and it was because the developers made an effort to develop content that was actually compelling and worth repeatedly completing without adding in constant daily grinds and borrowed power systems like they’d started in Legion.
We’re all confused, that’s the best time to go out and explore and try stuff!
I actually started stressing about not doing as much rep farm stuff as others because everyone is going CRAZY to get reps farmed up asap, but then I figured out there was nothing that I needed in them to stay relevant and now, I do some rep stuff when I just feel like chilling, actually enjoy it, and do the other stuff I like for the most part.
Thank you so much for your answers and advices! <3
I appreciate having been taken seriously!
I have a new sense of direction now and gonna head in and complete loremaster for DF, actually, cause I realised I hadn’t done that!!
now I also just need to figure out how to do the River Rapids Wrangler stuff, cause that one has confused me a lot…
off to WoWhead I go!
Dude box sales is all about how well a release was hyped. Player population is a far better indication of a successful game. The population for WOW took a huge dip after WOD and borrowed power found its way into the game. Hence the reason for the change away from that failed experiment and back to what actually works.
