My wife wants me to go back to WoW.... I just can't bring myself to do it. Played back in vanilla, had a totally bad AYuss paladin... maxed crafting, maxed every weapon skill (including unarmed), top end gear ect. Back in the day, when you actually had to have 40 people to raid the top end dungeons. Wife got my account banned while I was deployed. I said "F" it, I'm done.

Came back eventually, played a warlock for awhile, was fun... then got bored again, quit again.

Said I'd come back if they made an evil paladin... then they came out with the Death Knight.... so came back, made one, played until I got bored again.

Just can't bring myself to go back again. I want to try out Elder Scrolls Online though, that looks interesting!

i liked wow till the boredom set in. Played teso all through beta stage.. was not impressed at all with the pve and pvp combat. Its more like skyrim online without dragons and tailored for consoles. Not being able to see what u hit or for how much u hit it is a big no no for me ;)
 
Yes, it does look interesting. Don't know that I can pick up an entirely new game at this point so I'll have to stick with what I have. Still enjoyable though. Wish I could group and raid but my schedule doesn't allow me to schedule in advance..... That's why I'm a hunter in WOW, they do pretty well solo through PVE.....

ahh the hunter.. that class has been shoved back and forth so many times. Wait up guys.. i need to buy arrows lol the good ol days.

edit:
My soul still has scars from the angry ppl wanting my head on a plate after being in the middle of a dungeon wondering where my pet is and suddenly seeing half the dungeon's mobs running towards u. Offcourse the feign death and being the sole survivor didnt make it better ;/

i wouldn't mind playing some of the newer PC games, but with one usable hand, i'm more or less stuck with ones that you can control with a mouse. last games i played were the original Guild Wars and Diablo 3.

i bought a left-handed Razer Naga, but haven't tried it yet. if i can do mouse and WASD one-handed i might be ok for some games...


but, Raynman, i bet i could kick your .... in pong, considering i helped build most of them : )

Heh, I killed BO2. Max prestiged it, diamond'd out most everything, moved onto Ghosts, max prestiged there also, but on a small break (my clan fell apart), so I decided to hit up D3 again on PC since Blizzard was doing some changes/upgrades.

We ought to have a REO clan out there for both Xbox, PS and PC.

I bought the hardened version of Ghost, played for two days and gave it to my son. Worst Infinity Ward game I have ever played. Apparently IW is co producing the new Halo, meh.....

I feel you on the one hand bit, I'm only 2 digits away from a useless stump, still maintain a 1.2 k/d ratio. Think of video games as physical therapy... I know I did, the first month was very frustrating. (Threw a controller through a 46" Samsung).

I don't know how you guys do it, having less than optimal controller capability. They ought to come out with easier to use controllers for folks with your conditions.

Chowder, might I recommend perhaps a large sheet of plexiglass that you mount in front of your TV prior to playing any video games? You could even put one of those sticky clear crosshair things on it... call it a gaming accessory... MUCH cheaper than a new TV LOL.

I play mostly COD Ghost but will throw in BF4 and Titanfall in from time to time when I need a break from some of the b.s. that is COD....all on the Xbox One. My son took over the 360 for all of his minecraft shinanigans. I also play on the Wii U from time to time to let the boy know that I still am the king of video games in the house...haha. Can't wait for Mario Kart 8 to come out.
