Breaking the Habit
12/24/08 5:15 pm | #1
I managed to finally do it.... I've cancelled my World of Warcraft account. I know it may not seem like a major feat, but this game is extremely addicting. Once WOW gets its tentacles in you they are very hard to detach. The new wave of awesome 360 games currently out certainly helped me make my decision. Anyway, my gamerscore should see a significant increase soon since all of my gaming time will now be devoted to Xboxing. /Cheers and I'll see you all online.

Ha, welcome the "world of console gaming" again. I know the feeling about WoW and it's crazy lure, I recently quit myself - 5 months sober. I luckily stepped out before the latest expansion. It just absorbed way too much of my time.

I'm sorry man. I hope he soon comes to his senses and gets himself out of his habit...
Also, nice job Nemesis. It sounds like it is quite a feat, I however was one of the lucky people who through peer pressure tried it, but found it disgusting and am afraid to try it again for fear or being sick... hahahaha. It's amazing how much I can relate WOW to smoking. xD

Glad to hear to kick the habit. I never played toe game myself but I don't think I will ever hearing all the horror stories about how you might never see your family or the outside world again if you start it up lol

It took me a few months and 1 relapse to quit WoW. I was very tempted to pick up the habit again when Lich King came out but thankfully I didn't.
My Xbox 360 helped a lot, definitely.
I started smoking more though...

I played WoW once but not more than a month. I couldn't stand it. I've had other mmorpg's commandeer my mind, but WoW didn't do anything for me.

It seems a little too cartoony to me. If I were to be submersed in an MMORPG, I think I would like for it to be a little more realistic looking.
