Am I missing something, or is Athene's livestream one of the most boring livestreams out there?

I suppose 4,000 viewers can't be wrong, but it seems that every time I check to see what's happening, he's either floating above Stormwind waiting for nothing in particular, or talking to players in chat, or in a raid, where all he does is crank out lots of big green numbers so that the little green bars don't turn into black boxes.  I think I've seen him in an actual PvP match once in the dozen or so times I've watched his stream.

Am I missing something here?

The more you hype an upcoming game in your mind, the more it will fail to meet your expectations.

There's a lot of very bored people out there is all I can guess.

85 is pretty much World of Lobbycraft.

That's because all people do in wow is sit in the city and queue for dungeons and or battlegrounds.

Yeah it's very boring to watch, but playing isn't so bad while waiting. You usually have a lot of people to talk to in guild chat, or in trade chat (assuming it isn't just all trolls at the time). But that's one of the main reasons I quit recently was because I couldn't stand just waiting for dungeons or raids to pop while sitting around in town.

Let me just qualify my original post by saying:  if it's boring, that's probably World of Warcraft's fault more than Athene's.  Yes, it's become something of a lobby game, which almost by definition is boring.  Still, watching someone do healing for raids . . . ugh, so, so boring.

why do people say 85's just sit in the cities, i don't remember the last time i actually stayed in any city longer then 10min lol.'

i always have something i'm doing, the people sitting in the city i don't know what wrong with them lol.

The only things worth watching in Athene's work are his videos. Once you understand he's putting on a show and his douche bag elitism is just an act, he becomes quite hilarious - it's not for everyone though.

MMOs I enjoyed: Asheron's Call 2, SW Galaxies, Lineage 2, WoW.
Waiting for: World of Darkness, ArcheAge, Dominus.
Currently playing: retired from online gaming.
