The new generation of gamers dont care about winning

Like the older gamers did. Its all “let them win, i just want honor” and such. No pride in anything.

It’s a video game. There’s nothing prideful about winning in a video game either.

Who would have pride in playing this garbage heap. Devs don’t even talk to the community, there are over 50 bugs from launch that still haven’t been fixed, namely the stupid hunter/warlock pet bug that makes the class borderline unplayable in PvE while questing due to how stupidly slow the gameplay becomes due to the pet HP bug.

Anyone that genuinely takes Classic seriously is an actual troll, this game is on maintenance mode.

BG’s have turned into a means of acquiring currency, it just comes down to time invested for potential reward. If the outlook is grim there is no reason to contest, it is more efficient to go to the next game where you have a chance of winning and earning more honor.

Arena is where the actual competition takes place.

The avoidance of pvp in BGs makes me sick. AV is not even fun because no one pvps. As soon as Alliance starts to lose in any BG people start saying to stop trying. Disgusting.

You can play a video game and still value your time.

What is the point of drawing out a 400-1000 AB match. Or doing a 1v1 healer vs healer game in 2s after a cross kill

playing a video game is the definition of wasting time

Yeah, like they partied to the tune of almost 30 trillion dollars that they had no intention of paying back and the telling the younger generation that they’re “entitled” for expecting health care and education for free.

You plan to pay back the 30 trillion you got for free? No? You want them to pay it off? who’s really entitled.

this is a video game, who cares.

If you cared about your time then you wouldn’t be playing an MMO. Maybe something like a MOBA or fps is more your speed.

So anything that you do that doesnt generate income or further your career is a waste of time? All leisure activities and hobbies are a waste of time? Hanging out with friends is a waste of time?

Im saying you can enjoy gaming as a hobby or social thing, and still value your time and not want to spend an hour in a single bg for zero reason

You can take pride in anything that you do.

Most people measure value in terms of money or the impact it brings to the people around you - but that doesn’t mean time you spend on things you like can’t be something you take pride in.

I made basically no money playing guitar, didn’t change anyone’s life with it, but I take pride in spending so much time improving over the years.

Last time I checked this is a hobby done for personal enjoyment. Not some competition that needs to be taken so seriously that a lose means anything other than pixels moving across the screen.

At the end of the day this game means nothing, it has no impact on real-life, does not offer or provide any tanglible results. It is just ephemeral pixels that means nothing.

To get bent out of shape about losing means you are taken this way to serious and probably need to step away and re-evaluate your priorities.

At the end of the day it really isn’t about winning or losing, it’s about not being farmed
