The "GO GO GO" mentality

To the people who embody the “GO GO GO” mentality in the game, are you like that in real life too?

Are you the person who goes 60mph in a school zone? Are you pushing 90mph on the highway? Do you get all bothered when you don’t get your food fast enough when at the drive through of a fast food joint?

Personally, I think so many people in this game just need to chill out.

You don’t say?

Nope.

I’m not one to enjoy spending 35 minutes doing something that I can do in 15 though.

I have a limited to play, and I want to actually play the game instead of dragging my feet.

Bruh, even ff14 does that in dungeons. Wall2wall pulls are fine

Yes. They are.

I hate it bc I am one of the people who has zero patience. Type A here. But the difference is, verbalizing it vs not verbalizing it. I may be like COME ON LET’S GO in my head while in the dungeon but I realize it’s a freakin video game so I say nothing.

Aka, being an a-hole vs not being an an-hole.

In fairness, it happens in ffxiv because there is zero difficulty in their dungeon content. Whereas its a built in part of how endgame wow dungeons function.

No, context is important. Do you complain about the “GO GO GO mentality” of life whenever an ambulance speeds by with sirens on?

Yes, actually. I’m certainly not paying marked up fast food prices for it’s quality.

Where I live, everyone is either über rich Tesla/Maserati/Bentley drivers doing 90 or old hicks doing 55.

And sometimes the old hick in the beat up F-150 also doing 90.

Like really, if you’re obeying the law, someone, somewhere is raging at you.

well, it’s not like you can “gogogo” in hard wow content either. Pull more than 2 packs in m+ and it’s just wipe

Just impatient people.

This is the same person that would honk you at a light if you didnt gun it when it turned green.

Same person to complain at a fast food restaurant because they waited 10 minutes for their food.

Same person who yells at their kid because they are not getting ready fast enough

Etc etc. You get the picture, these people exist everywhere.

I’m not GO GO GO in game, but am IRL. Especially when driving. Nothing makes me more furious than someone going only 15 over the speed limit in the high speed lane.

“GO GO GO” also comes with age. It just sneaks up on you out of nowhere and when it does, you need to go, or wear a diaper.

You get it. :+1:

Nono, they expect you to already be moving while the other light is yellow.

True, if I don’t see a Sprout I assume everyone is on an alt and know the unprinted rules.
As a Tank I grab all the mobs up to the boss and we AOE them down.
If we wipe I apologize and grab the mobs in two groups.

To be fair, almost no one likes those “grandma-slow” drivers doing 25 in a 40… especially if it’s a one-lane street where you can’t get around them :weary:

Slow drivers also tend to be “Karen” types, another reason they are disliked

Personally, fast/speeding drivers don’t bother me much… since they’ll be out of sight shortly anyways (since they’re driving fast), it’s the slow/turtle drivers that are the most annoying when I’m out and about

The only time I’m annoyed by a fast/speeding driver is when it’s one of those annoying teenagers driving a :poop:-box beater Honda or Subaru with a scuffed exhaust making a bunch of loud noise. Also, the “diesel bros” in lifted trucks who are rolling coal - even if you roll up the windows you still get a whiff of that nasty black exhaust smoke :face_vomiting:

IIRC it is slow drivers who cause more accidents than fast drivers, too. Causing pile-ups on highways by being essentially a slow-moving obstacle instead of moving with the flow of traffic.

Edit: yep.

According to an Institute of Transportation Engineers Study, those driving 10 mph slower than the prevailing speed are six times as likely to be involved in an accident .

This really makes OP’s post hilarious in context.

You’re darn right i want to get this dungeon done in 20 minutes if we can vs 30+ minutes. That’s an extra ten minutes i could be cuddling my puppy instead of watching the tank slowly pull one mob at a time.
