World of Warcraft Burn Out?
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
As you may know if you've been reading my blog, I haven't played World of Warcraft much at all the past few weeks. I'm too busy getting myworldofwarcraftaddiction.com and other blogs going to actually play World of Warcraft. How ironic is that? Honestly though, once I got over the loss of routine and missing my friends, I didn't missed playing that much. Could it be I'm getting over my World of Warcraft addiction? After this many years, I don't think so. It was time for one of my occasional breaks from World of Warcraft.
Which is a perfect lead in into today's idea. I want to talk some about the opposite of World of Warcraft addiction. I think that might just be World of Warcraft burn out. Yes, World of Warcraft burn out might happen just as often as World of Warcraft addiction. Maybe even more so. It just isn't making the sensational headlines.
Why do we flog ourselves if its only just a game? We burn out because we're addicted and play too much. We vacillate, going back and forth between addiction and burn out, addiction and burn out sometimes barely noticing the brief stopover at enjoyment in between the two.
Why not just relax and enjoy the game as a leisure activity? The great thing is the number of different things you can do in game. When you are new, explore all the options. But then when you become a seasoned veteran, spend at least some time doing the things you enjoy rather than the things you are "supposed to do." About the only thing I know of that has to be done in game is check your mail so you don't lose items or gold coming your way.
I'm sure you recognize some of your friends, guild mates and other acquaintances getting upset and burnt out. They complain about being bored, flit about, or even grind angerly. Sometimes they'll even quit a guild simply wanting something to change.
Maybe one of the tricks to beating both World of Warcraft addiction and World of Warcraft burnout is one and the same. Maybe we just need to slow down. You know, fully read the quests instead of just rushing through them. Paying attention to the story lines rather than running about like crazy to level in just as fast as you can. I know what I'm saying here is heresy for my leveling guide friends, but so be it!
I don't know what it would be for you, but take time to pal around in game with your friends sometimes. One thing my guild does every now and then is come up with all kinds of unusual activities. For instance, one time we travelled around all over the world just giving away 16 slot bags to newbs and people that needed them. I think we gave away like 300 bags that night and it was a blast!
If you do what you want, you thwart the compulsion aspect of the game. Also, you will enjoy your time more and thus avoid the World of Warcraft burn out malady factor.
