    When I was a teen I played WoW from vanilla through Cata… Had over a full year of in game /played time on just my main.

    …and I made a lot of alts.

    100% full-blown addicted.

    Blizzard is actually the one example of enshittification that I can actually be thankful for - I didn’t really ever quit; they just stopped supplying my drug of choice. They definitely had the power to keep me enthralled, but instead shifted to a younger and younger target audience as I was ofc aging the opposite direction.

    The Kung-Fu-Panda xpac trailer was finally my cue to accept that my dealer wasn’t going to provide that fix anymore.

    Then I started making healthy life decisions discovered Ark >_<
