Wait, I thought you were done with WoW. You're raiding Sunwell? Yeah, like I said yanno. Blizzard’s learned a lot.

I frequently wish that I'd been smarter, but the way I see it, the game was really tailored to life altering play back in the day. The green dragons were needed for AQ40 since Nature Resistance was important, so we HAD to get them, or else we'd FAIL and you know how that story ends. Nowadays, Kazzak's items are BoP! I mean, my god, if they'd only done that back then... It was really hard putting limits on myself back then. I'd always played the best in a game prior without much lost; I was amazing at Counter-strike, and at most, I put four hours a day into it. Probably more like two a day, even. WoW really blindsided me, and I'm glad to be out of that 12-14 months of DnT I had. Now that I've done that, and in coming back to TBC as a Druid before, I've broken the cycle. When I played my Resto Druid, I think I literaly played 3 hours a day doing BT/HYJAL clears. Even Sunwell progress was only 3-4 hours a day. It was so much more doable than our old six to seven hour 4H attempts ALL week :( Moniques last blog post..<a href="http://girlsdontgame.com/2008/06/22/a-happy-ending-metal-gear-solid-4/" rel="nofollow">A Happy Ending: Metal Gear Solid 4</a> Well-said, Matt.
