For my birthday, my parents bought me Wrath of the lich king(they didn't even wait in line) and the problem is, I don't have the graphic card to run it or the normal WOW and Burning Crusade. Sucks for me I'm giving it back to the store.

Wow that sucks. Same exact thing happened to me. I ended up buying a new graphics card and some memory and I was good to go. But I bought a cheap one, yet the gameplay is still great.

But I don't have Wotlk yet sadly. That situation happened to me for Silkroad and TBC.

I've been begging for a better graphic card on my computer but my dad said there too expensive.

Well if you can dish out 119$ you can get a good 8800GT 512mb on netgear. That card will last a couple of years.

Then you should return the game and cancel WoW.. I mean somethin that you pay 15$ month for is not worth the 8 days a month..

You would be amazed how many people play only on weekends, this would include adults too who aren't addicted, I've met a lot of adults and kids that aren't addicted that normally play on weekends, and not during the week.

This graphical requirement is not a mistake though.

After 4 years, almost 5, of gaming, WoW had to improve someway to stay relatively on par with the other games that are coming out every now and then.

Thus, an expansion was the best opportunity to improve the game's graphical quality.

Yes but then it's kinda not worth the money.

$15/month for only 8 days of play? Obviously not the same bang for your entertainment dollar as people who play every spare moment but it's still cheaper than going to see a single 2-3 hour movie (with popcorn.)

Your luck Dark Ruler. That's pretty cheap, then you can go to China or Japan and there you will pay for 8 hours a day or something instead of 24 hours a day.

I thought it was bad for me only being able to play 50% (Shared custody and Mum hates WoW) :(

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
