So I haven’t been entirely clear here or with others what my Swtor status is. Am I gone for good, on break, planning a glorious comeback?
To make things clear I’m on hiatus right now. I’ve had time to think about things and there’s a few things that have become clear to me. First, I don’t hate Swtor. At some point I wasn’t sure if the game was getting me down or if it was something else but now I know that Swtor itself has only a really small part to play in this. The storyline is great, the endgame is average and I wish they would fix performance.
Second, I do plan to return in some capacity at least to do the imperial storyline once and also to annoy the Snarkers. I don’t want NJessi to get too comfortable.
And lastly, I’m pretty much done with raiding as a weekly activity I commit to and this is the main reason I’m now on hiatus. Committing to do the same raids over and over every week is not worth the time invested for me anymore. I like having my weekend end nights back and being able to go out or just do something else without worrying about letting the raid down.
So that’s my status and I’ll promess I’ll have some more relevant content soon!
I’m sorry to hear that raiding no longer catches your interest, I know it was a pretty big thing for you for quite a long time. It sounds like you came to about the same realization I had that caused me to stop raiding. It’s a very difficult decision, especially when you really like the group of people that you kill Internet space dragons with each week, but at least for me, it has made me so much more content with my hobbies across the board and brought me back to that point where I love gaming again. Given how stressed I was starting to feel about keeping a raiding commitment, I think this is a much healthier state to be in for the long haul. And I think we’re both lucky enough to know people who will keep in touch and not dump us from guilds just because we no longer raid every weekend.
Here’s to wonderful people. Also, we need you to roll a horde in wow so you level our guild.
I mean we think you’re great and want you to play with us
