Just sit awhile

I am doing shockingly bad in terms of playing WoW right now. Just don’t feel well enough. I wanted WoW to be an escape from all the health related stuff I’m dealing with but I’m struggling. I am just so tired.  I log on, do one or two things and then log off again, exhausted. Crazy. You’d swear I was physically running around Dalaran. It seems however excited I feel about all the Blizzcon stuff I’m going to need to get a whole lot better before I’m up to it.

At least there’s Hearthstone. Or there was. To begin with it felt like  Hearthstone was something I could manage. I could log in, play a game, log out, then later if I felt up to it go back in and play some more. But now I’m not sure.  When I play I’m switching between a mid range control Hunter, this Warlock deck (minus the Lich King which I don’t have) and a Highlander Priest deck. However, I lose far more than I win. Now of course this could just be my skills (lack of) but I think it’s more than that.  I find myself mentally and physically flagging mid game, feeling overwhelmed by it all and basically just wanting to concede. Not going to hit Legend that way.

But it’s the WoW thing that has me feeling really sad. I’m just not up to proper gaming right now and it’s a shame because I really miss Azeroth. I might just have to content myself with logging in, flying somewhere beautiful and just sitting awhile, enjoying the scenery. There are worse things.

  1. I’m so sorry to hear that stuff isn’t going well! Sending you good vibes for a speedy recovery *hugs*

    On the WoW related front, while I know it’s not nearly the same thing as playing the game, maybe listening to Warcraft podcasts would help? That’s a lot less energy intensive than playing but you can still stay connected to the game world. Let me know if you want any podcast recommendations!

  2. Thank you. That’s a great idea. Yes some recommendations would be great. I’ve only ever properly listened to The Instance and haven’t listened to that in awhile.

    1. I’ll be honest, I tend to listen to a lot of history podcasts as well, so my knowledge of Warcraft podcasts isn’t the deepest but…

      Convert to Raid
      Blizzard Watch
      Lore Watch (made by the same people who do Blizzard Watch)
      The Worgen’s Howl

      …are a few good ones I know off the top of my head!

      1. Thanks for these. I think I’ve listened to Convert to Raid in the past and definitely Blizzard Watch. Not heard of The Worgen’s Howl before – I love the name!
