Your comment is completely out of touch.
a) "Scheduling a baby" or children in general isn't a thing. They are full time commitments. Which is the entire point of the original comment. To say nothing of the fact that MMOs like WoW are extremely time demanding games. Its pretty hard to play WoW casually, for small amounts of time, and actually get enjoyment out of it. Which again, is the point of the original comment.
b) Possible, but unlikely. MMOs are pretty niche, and again, giant time commitments. Its unlikely his entire family will be into the idea of all grinding away together online. But sure, its a possibility.
c) At no point was the comment doing anything resembling whining. It was simply pointing out that much of the fanbase that would potentially be enticed to come back to the game by WoW Classic has aged into a stage of life where it will be hard if not impossible to enjoy it the same way they did previously. Its simply an observation, and a good one at that.
- danesparza 7y agoFor the record: I'm a husband and father of two college age daughters. My daughters game casually. I think you misunderstood the 'timebox baby' comment. I was simply suggesting timeboxing the gaming time. And clearly communicating that with the wife (at the very least). I wasn't suggesting timeboxing baby / children / family time. To my ear, the statement 'Everything I absolutely loved about WoW is inaccessible to me 15 years later now that I have kids and a job.' sounds like whining: No indication of any failed effort -- just lamenting.
