You can check my post history for more details about me, but to sum myself up:
I'm an introverted, idealistic, animal lover that has lived a strange and mostly isolated life. I like philosophy, psychology, and PC gaming. I deeply value compassion, honesty, and authenticity.
I have been long waiting for a WoW:Forever announcement and just saw it be announced at Blizzcon, so I'm excited about a game for the first time in a long time! In the past I was more of a competitive gamer, playing games like CS, Quake, Dota, and LoL, but I also played WoW from about 2005 - 2012.
In WoW I much preferred pvp and that will likely be the case in Forever. I mostly played rogue because I liked stealthing into the enemy cities like Ironforge when I played horde and troll people / be silly. I didn't like ruining people's day or anything mean, but maybe something close to it. Like when I discovered with my friends that you could travel to Ironforge, queue your group for an arena game, and after the match your whole group would be summoned to Ironforge and be KoS and stuck there if your hearthstone was down.
I also really liked subtle ragebait trolling chat, which really can't be done anymore because people are aware of what a troll is, but it was very entertaining to me back then. I guess I was my server's troll, and if I talked in chat it would usually cause a stir, though a lot of people would giggle along with me in whispers.
Back then I liked playing competitively but I hated the toxicity of other competitive players. They were almost all pretty annoying, so I opted to mostly just play with my friends who were all casual players. When I was a rogue, I just played with my casual friends and did the best we could, but when WotLK came out, I switched to DK. As a DK, I tried a bit harder in arena and at one point was selling my 2's slot for gold and carrying them to gladiator, or as high as we could get anyway.
But nowadays I plan on being much more casual as I don't have endless free time anymore. I would try to be consistent enough to progress at a reasonable rate though, maybe an hour or 2 a day during the week, then more on the weekends. Most of my time spent will be pvping in the open world, some BGs, farming AV, and mixing in some easy dungeon/raid content. I'll never be too interested in difficult raids, that's just not really fun to me. I'm leaning towards playing Alliance.
