Yesterday was one of those days in WoW where I temporarily lost my drive for this game 
. First I had to look for at least 45 mins to get a group for the instance Blackrock Depths (BRD)… which is amazing enough considering that I’m one of the – if not THE – most needed class in this game! Unfortunately I also did all other quests in the zone Burning Steppes already, so I was just killing mobs out of boredom while waiting for any replies.
Then, after I’ve finally found a group, it proved to be a total disappointment. Almost everyone was so impatient and just wanted to rush through BRD as fast as humanly possible. When I told them that I wanted to enjoy this instance and play it thoroughly they even suggested to relog with their main chars to give me a boost! Well, everyone might have a different view when it comes to “enjoying WoW” but for me it means having a challenge and trying to see as much as possible of an instance and NOT just following a group of level 70 chars 
. I thanked them for their offer but declined neverthenless. They all grew more impatient by the minute and just wanted to go on without having to wait for me all the time. Of course they also started to attack pretty much every mob in this instance and wanted me to protect them 
. After about 20 mins the inevitable happened: the group got dissolved and I went back to the nearest major city to sell some stuff at the AH and to log off for the night.
I know that those moments are rather rare in WoW, but I also noticed – and heard from a friend of mine – that I must be prepared to accept that with increasing level more and more people just wanna level up as fast as possible without caring for the story and the whole gaming experience. I also know that lots of people are playing their already 5th or 6th alternative char or twink (an alt char which is “sponsored” by the main char) and just don’t wanna “waste” their time with all those quests etc. again. Well, let’s see what the next couple of days will bring…
