Players seem to have more apathy toward the game than they used to. It’s not as divided, not as strongly felt, and not gaining momentum any more. You’ll always have the hardcore vocal minority, but from random forum and news snippet comments over the past several months, I’ve noticed apathy set in.

I’ve seen it time and time again. I make huge profits and I stake them out whenever they appear on the auction house because I know I’ll get a deal. The higher value the item, the better.

On Celwyn, a level 14 druid and 50 total hours on the character played, he now has 22k in the bank, up from 2k since I bought Lich King about a month and a half ago. With my other character at 7k and 2 epics listed for another 6 or so, I’m sitting at 29k [...]

Thanks for coming in 2008, listening to the podcasts, and for all of the great comments and support. Not sure what topic yet, but it is in the plans to start a new series of podcasts for the current market. It was exciting to start from scratch, so perhaps I’ll start anew with different parameters.
