Are you sick of the constant rat race to hit the level cap, keep up with other players, and stay on top of all of the new content that developers continue to fling in your face? I know I hit that limit a while back and made the decision that I was going to play at my own pace or not at all.
So instead of speeding up… I slowed down. And that’s been a great change because instead of trying to push myself every session in the hopes of staying competitive with people who play 10 hours a day, I simply do what I want, taking time to sniff the virtual flowers and read up on all of the stories.
Have you ever made the decision to play MMOs more deliberately and more slowly than you used to? If so, how’s that working out for you?
Every morning, the Massively Overpowered writers team up with mascot Mo to ask MMORPG players pointed questions about the massively multiplayer online roleplaying genre. Grab a mug of your preferred beverage and take a stab at answering the question posed in today’s Daily Grind!
