I enjoy playing WoW for its own sake, and, even by being a massive, I don't feel like I'm really missing out if I miss a day or three of play.
That's part of WoW that I've always liked, that you can put it down and not feel like the world has passed me by. Make no mistake, I still will point to it as an example of everything you can do right in the genre - for all its faults it still surpasses so many faults that so many other games, even new ones, manage to fall into. It is an excellent game and deserving of admiration.
But if I'm going to keep playing it, it can't be as a default. There's too much else out there.
