I’m honestly curious: why do you list all those things and call yourself “casual”? I mean what version of “casual” allows you to accomplish all that and still think you are “casual”?
Because i don’t tryhard and farm, i play on my own laid-back pace.
I wish I could accomplish all that by not trying hard :/
Don’t mind people like them man, I mean think about it, 4000 hours translates to 15 hours a week ,every singe week, without fail, for the last 5 years straight, and that’s just played time, that would not include all the time they spent reading guides, meta build designing, on top of watching vids, and learning how to play.
You can’t take people like that seriously, I mean they even said “it’s a l2p issue” you don’t get any more elitist then that.
In fairness, it also includes time spent sitting around AFK in game while reading guides, watching videos, etc. So it probably evens out.
And 15 hours per week is pretty casual, honestly. That translates into a couple of hours per day…less than most people spend watching TV or BS’ing on the internet daily. Maybe you play less than that, but you don’t get to define the casual experience for everyone else any more than that guy does. The point being that speaking for casual players does not validate any of your points, because the fact is casuals are not a uniform group that play the way you do and share your views on the game.
Seconding this. Casual means a lot of things to a lot of people.
You can be casual if you only play a couple of hours a week (and 15 hours a week easily translates into like, only doing the dailies and the occasional afternoon during the weekend).
You can be casual if you don’t take part in buildcraft, competitive pvp or actively challenge yourself with things like 5-man raids and speed runs.
You can be casual if you don’t rush to max out a map, maybe you never do, because you take your time wandering around and taking screenshots of the scenery and discovering every nook and cranny.
What none of the complainers in this thread has done is define what you lot consider casual other than “not this”. People who occasionally open a guide or watch a video for a jumping puzzle or even spend a few months gathering the mats for a legendary aren’t hardcore, kitten .
