On quitting WoW

It's not like I hate World of Warcraft. I don't.

It's not that I got in some kind of personality clash with people there. I didn't.

The problem is a simple matter of mathematics: Once I add up all the major obligations I've got in my life, I just don't have time to make the most out of WoW the way I could in the past.

Too many other things need my attention right now:

* Karen and her son, Stefan, who lives with us half the time.
* My job working on Fallen Earth.
* My games at jointhesaga.com.
* And, when time allows, content for the MUDdy Hobo blog.

I've gotten to know some great people through WoW. I springboarded into MMORPG development as a career thanks to that game. Chances are, come the next expansion, I'll poke around to see what's new.

But, for now, I'm setting it aside.
