I no longer enjoy WoW’s endgame content.

I like raiding, and the raids in Pandaria so far have been interesting. But I am no longer all that interested in the rest of the endgame.

This is OK, because Pandaria is, …

Guest Post! Balance between RL and WOW
comment Comments Off Written by on February 12, 2008 – 10:40 am

So today I bring you something new for Keine Ordnung – and something that I hope will happen periodically over the life of this blog. A guest post! This time, from a very good friend (who signs himself Opaladin in comments) who doesn’t have a blog of his own. He’s the one responsible for the name of this place though, and apparently was compelled by my ramblings to tell his own story about Warcraft and balance. It’s a pretty interesting read! And so, here’s Zelig/Opalatheta/etc, on the subject of Warcraft and Real Life.

*********

I found myself starting to play WoW in the fall of 2005.

I moved back to Germany in late 2004 after 9 months of looking for employment – I ended up as a contractor working for the Air Force. Prior to leaving for Germany I knew that it (Germany) wasn’t where I wanted to go with my life (I had been stationed there while I was on Active Duty) – I was going on 30 and felt the need to put down some roots. I love Germany; I just knew it wasn’t where I wanted to go – it wouldn’t be permanent. And so, after hearing all the guys that I worked with talk about WoW, I bought a copy. Around the same time, I started cycling / mountain bike racing, but knew that I wouldn’t get much riding in during the winter – I needed something to keep me entertained.

Tiniest of (Gnomish) updates

February 25, 2013 – 9:13 am

I’ve decided, after no small amount of back-and-forth, to put my energy behind Annie Mae to be my second max character this expansion (with Angoleth likely to be third). I can’t really get into Shaman gameplay, so Annorah is going …

A Few Friday Links

January 4, 2013 – 4:02 pm

I’m still getting my head on straight after the holidays, which involved throwing two parties, taking two road trips, and miraculously avoiding having the flu. As such, here are a few interesting things I’ve been reading that you might like …

The Secret Sauce of Roleplaying

December 10, 2012 – 7:48 am

I am remiss in not linking to it earlier, but you should check out the inimitable Tarquin’s article on Roleplaying and why it’s awesome, over at Dorkadia. He’s starting a series there on roleplaying in general, and this is …

Retro Raiding – Ulduar

December 4, 2012 – 9:47 am

Friday Five: House and Home

Your character has unlimited funds and unlimited space to make their dream abode.

  1. Is it in the city or country? What zone, if you could pick one?
  2. Big or small? What does it look like?
  3. Is it cluttered and crazy

An Epidemic of RPer Disease
