What's with a ton of celebrities playing WoW?
>>
it's a good game with an inmense lore and gameplay mechanics that can infatue the most hardcore gamer and the dumbest casual.
>>
>>332903203
I just noticed something. A ton of successful people play the most casual games. Why?
>>
Confirmed WoW players:
Mila Kunis
Ronda Rousey
>>
>>332903462
they are too busy being succesfull to play hardcore games, yet they want to be gamers so they choose casual games with solid fanbases.

He was playing WoW in its final blaze of glory, I don't blame him at all.

Oh that's just a celebrity stereotype that gets played off by neckbeards. Surely most of the have normal private lives and play WoW.

I doubt Henry Cavill plays as Arthas, you have to make your own character

Makes you wonder if any one of us played with or against a celeb. Or if any one of your shady friends in WoW who rarely identifies themselves is one.

Tons of celebs play GTA and Call of Duty
They just dont talk about all the time because its still good
WoW -was- good and therefore nostalgic
>>
>>332906528

WoW -is- good because plenty of people, celebrities included, still play it

Figures someone with a name that sounds like it's from the 1800s would be a nostalgia faggot. WoW was fucking horrible in the 2000s compared to how it is now. Oh man I sure fucking love having to get 550 Defense Rating or else I get crushing blows from Boss-level enemies, that sure is an intuitive and fun mechanic.

This may shock you, but not every successful attractive person is out every single night partying. Sometimes they just wanna chill and play vidya/watch movies like the rest of us.

Casting for MoS began in November 2010. So we can guess that he was doing one of Cataclysm's dungeons, most likely on heroic. Heroic dungeons were pretty hard during the beginning of Cataclysm, so it's not surprising he missed a phone call. He said he was "saving someone's life" so he definitely played a healer.
>>
>>332903029
the game lets them be a normal person. Noone sucking their dick everywhere they go. Same reason we're on 4chan, noone knows who you are. Everyone is treated like a faggot, regardless of your irl status or worth. None of you faggots know who i am or how much power i hold or how famous i am. Taking a break from the lime light is refreshing.

they don't really play it

their agents told them all the kids play WoW, so they said they play it to seem current (back in 2004)
any celebrity claiming to play now is unaware that it's not popular anymore, but it's the only video game they know other than the cawadooty

>implying Cavill actually plays it

His managers probably told him to say that shit to connect to the """"""nerd""""" community and give them yet another reason to watch BvS. I don't recall him ever naming any specifics, he always just says things like "as I was clearing this very important part of a dungeon" and shit like that. Anyone could make that up on the fly

He does seem like a cool and nice guy though and I wish him well
>>
>>332903029
While this may surprise people, a lot of creative types are the kind of person that gets really heavily into things like wow. The reason a lot of them don't play games is because they know that they'll get addicted to them. Patrick stewart outright said he has a huge stack of games that friends of his sent saying he'd really like it. And he's sure he would, but if he starts playing them he'll just end up sat in his living room for 20 hours a day.

>. I don't recall him ever naming any specifics, he always just says things like "as I was clearing this very important part of a dungeon" and shit like that.

Yes so that people who don't play wow, aka most of the people out there will be able to follow what he's saying. It's only the really hardcore that will just start talking specifics, like that guy from cannibal corpse.

It's not like celebrities are people too or anything.

Back when I played, one of our main tanks was an Italian porn star. Male, I'm afraid.

I mean, if we're including dead celebrities, you might as well include Robin Williams on the list.

This just in; celebrities play popular games to promote their self image by pretending to be 'JUST LIKE YOU'

They get paid shill it. It's what they do. They are shills, walking advertisements.

This is their ethos.
