Of course, I was more emphasising the fact that I let this became more than just entertainment, and was consumed by it, and lloking back I regret spending over 1,500 hours doing something that doesn't really mean much, when Incould have been using it for so many other things.
I guess I'm just trying to say that NW put blinders on my life and made me miss a bunch of oppurunities that I should have taken.
Had that back in the day when I still really enjoyed NW, -> MM. When I was around 13-15.
Now I pretty much only play it when I'm bored. But a lot of time was wasted those years...

I feel sorry for those who play Groupfighting everyday, I agree with the idea that some are addicted. I personally rarely play and even when I was playing with a regiment I'd only play for events then piss off to do something else. I think the game dies quicker for leaders as it's like being a mother to 80 retarded children.

When you enjoy doing something I don't see how you can call it ''wasted'' time. If you play this and you actually don't enjoy it, then you're ''wasting'' time as you could be spending that time on something you do enjoy.I wonder how can people (or why would they) play what they actually don't enjoy? It's bullshit
3000 hours here, I do what I love I have no regrets I work I hang with friends about 4 years later 3000 hours oh well ;D

There was a time, I think the summer of 2012 or 2013 that I played at least 10 hours a day. Those times during the summer I had absolutely no obligations and so I just spent the entire day, from waking up to going to bed playing NW and other games. My social life didn't really suffer as I still managed to make time for friends, but when the school year started again I had completely lost any good work habits and self discipline, and I nearly flunked that year. Luckily I stopped playing NW after only about 750 hours, which is pretty low compared to a lot of people in the community. Can't imagine what it must be like for people who have 2,000+.
What is wrong wasting your time and throwing away opportunities? You waste your time hanging out with your friends, you waste your time eating, watching TV, going to see movies, you throw opportunities down everyday and step on them and move on.
What is the definition of wasting time? What are these so called opportunities? You dont waste time, you spend it, you spend it for entertainment and on the forums, for socializing, all of it is being spent into this community and game, what is wrong with that? It wont matter in 20 years? No, you are wrong, you are living an experience that is unique and can only be defined to yourself. What you people are doing is trying to reject this game and you are trying to reject yourself and attitude towards the game.
You have wasted no opportunities, you spent opportunities to use this community and organization of your own personal regiment to create new opportunities for yourself and others. There is nothing wrong with that, whats only wrong with this is that you are trying to reject the opportunity that you took.

2000+ no longer playing Warband checking in. I feel like this thread is good time for an honest reflection for those who stuck around for a while and can't fully check out because of old ties.
I started freshman year of high school with some social life, with the potential to grow within school. Instead of doing that I pretty much turned into a socially awkward yet normal looking kid without friends or desire to make any because I grew more attached to a team speak of people online dedicated to having fun in a niche game doing niche shit. The Internet allowed me to have friends who shared more common interests instead of being stuck with a few potential ones (phones make it easy to escape social situations as we all know). My interest in the game at first was purely immersion, I remember being giddy as fuck just to join a server then die in a line after shooting a single ball at the enemy. I saw videos about MM because of CHkilroy (still am a fan because of his Shacktac content) and that really got me interested. However, this interest eventually turned me in the average narcissistic community leader or someone more interested in power and organization (not necessarily totally but other people I remember seemed to embody this). I felt like I got my online community experience but neglected to leave earlier (thus the original topic, wasting time). I did neglect grades often times but I think that's unrelated. I legitimately wasted weeks of time when I was not actually playing the game so when I did play the experience was better. I still have this issue but at least it's not invested in a community that's toxic with narcissism. I do more productive things now like make videos and generally just have an attachment to being online instead of playing games.
This seems to be an epidemic in the maturing world of youth in developed countries nowadays. Shit, look at Korea and Japan with a staggering loss of birthrate faster than other developed nations currently. But there's good news, and that this is mostly a phase thing instead of lifestyle. I'm going off to college like you did, Walko. Hopefully on a personal level I don't continue these habits excessively there.
Sorry this post may be near the epicenter of people who may have these tendencies unknowingly but now that NW is getting older and more people are leaving like I did I hope to at least have some sort of closure with those who have been through this. If you read this, don't understand it or think it's a problem then you may not have invested enough in online communities to at least realize that some people struggle to balance their lives offline.What is wrong wasting your time and throwing away opportunities? You waste your time hanging out with your friends, you waste your time eating, watching TV, going to see movies, you throw opportunities down everyday and step on them and move on.

I don't think that was the message, it was meant to be directed toward those who neglect priceless things such as family and their own futures. That or I just exploded randomly and I thought the thread was close enough.
tl;dr: if you read this first you shouldn't be in this thread, go find somewhere else to boost your post count or fill the void of boredom.
This game isnt a waste of time, whatever makes you happy is never waste.
Yes it might not be very useful for you but for example leading a regiment at a "young age" helps you a lot I think,
you work a lot with people and have to handle a lot of different situations, situations a lot of other people wont be in for a long time, which is an amazing experience
Eat your shoes
I feel like I learned something from leading regiments in NW. Was it a waste of time? I don't know. I feel like this whole NW experience taught me more about people and how they behave than anything. Interesting stuff. Alas, I will be in college soon and will most likely not be playing computer games at the volume I used to (50-60+ hours a week easy). I will still play from time to time but who doesn't enjoy playing video games?
Your regiment wouldn't be filled with 80 retarded children if you actually monitored and had standards for acceptance. I do this and my regiment is probably only about 10% retarded and none are children.This...very trueIt's called time management. It's up to you to control if you have an addiction or not, you cannot blame anyone or any entity for it. It's a game after all and the satisfaction of playing this game may be higher than that of doing real life stuff, for me I found that balance years ago.

You guys won't like this.
I come back and poke on the forums every month maybe just to see how it's going, and see if there is any new devblogs. There never is.....But that's not the point. I'm here and I'm on a rant.
/startrant
Hi everyone, I'm Hugo and I'm a teamaholic.
I regret every second. A lot of you guys say that you've "met cool people" or "learned things" but the reality is this is a game, and there is next to nothing to actually be learned. And you haven't really met anyone. The best skill that can be achieved from playing this game is having the ability to administer/babysit children on the internet.
The game itself isn't even fun. It's aggravating, time consuming, and filled with douchebags. It's the community, the politics involved, and the people you play with that make it addicting. The time period is interesting and it's the only one of its kind. And that what makes the game seem to be worth while. But read my lips! IT'S A WAIST OF TIME!
To play as a ranker in this game is to sacrifice X hours of your life every week. Only to impress internet people. Your rank only signifies how well you function in an internet community. If you're a Sgt in the xxth no one cares. No one ever will. Even if you actually meet someone from the game IRL they still really don't care. No one really does. You're all lying to yourselves about how it really isn't a waiste of time because you're all to scared of life. To go out and actually experience it. And I'm guilty of the same crime. At least I was.
As a officer/reg leader you learn how to babysit. And I saw Karth's post about the air force. If you think leading a regiment will help you in the military your world is upside down. Especially an officer in it. ESPECIALLY A PILOT! Leading/being a CO in a regiment takes a tremendous amount of time, dedication, and hard work. Now. think if you took all that power, all that drive and put it towards something real. Anything real. I don't care and neither does anyone in this community. Some people may think that what you're doing in life is interesting, and maybe you have some friends on here that you feel are real friends. Let me tell you something about them. They are real friends. But they're not REAL. Yeah, they're a real person on the other side of a keyboard. But they're not really there for you. They can't really help you, all they can do for you is play games with you. And what really is a game? A game is an activity engaged in for diversion or amusement. Diversion. Diversion from what? REAL LIFE. The sooner you guys realize this the better. And karth. If you are serious about joining the AF, I preemptively thank you for serving. Not now but if you do(it's hard to be a officer nowadays with the peacetime and such).
Now some of you guys (a lot) of you guys are still in HS, Middle school, and I know they're are some 12thyearolds too(I had to!). And I urge you guys to not get swept into this diversion. If I could relive my life I would have never bought the game. In HS and below you guys haven't started life yet. There is not a whole lot that can really be done above and beyond. But let me carry on that point. You could. You could do almost anything else outside of this game in HS. Even drugs. And I'm not advocating drugs, but at least it's a real experience. But my point is this game is an utter waist of energy, life, and thousands upon thousands of player hours. Don't do drugs. Do something constructive. Like join 4H. or boyscouts, the list goes on. Just stop playing the game.
So for me personally I was addicted as one can be to this game. Line battles gave me a euphoric rush. And I told myself that it's what I enjoy(I did, and I still would) and I'd do it forever. And I was sincerely intending to do so. I told myself "eh, It'll keep me out of drugs." but playing this game didn't even stop that. Another really interesting thing, that I've heard time and time again from players is "I'd go hand out with my friends but nothing is ever going on." That's a lie a lot of us tell to ourselves. We all have friends. Not all of us, but most of us(I'm talking real life here). I would pull this card. You pull this card. We all do. But the brutal reality is that we all are/were letting life, and our friends pass us by. Sometimes you have to pick up the phone and make some plans. sometimes you have to leave the computer off and see what's actually going on in the world. Once I realized this stuff it hurt. It's not easy, nor fun to actually partake in real life. It's hard. But that's the problem we have as gamers. We don't want to grow up. But I urge you to do so.
This game was my addiction and I successfully kicked it to the curb. Doing so free'd up so much of my time. Since the 29th disbanded I've lost 54 pounds. Gained some real life life long friends, and had a lot more time, energy and dedication to actually think about my life and how to further my self in this world. For me I was addicted to the team. Being on a team meant a lot to me, and still does. I had lost interest in the game long before the 29th disbanded. But it was the feeling of being on a team, and not letting internet people down is what brought me back time and time again. And a lot of you may never be able to shake that feeling. For you reg leaders: it only gets harder to disband. Never easier. You'll never outgrow it. You just have to say I'm done. And then a couple months down the road you'll realize how much of an idiot you were(for playing).
One thing I would like to urge is if you find yourselves addicted to the team atmosphere go join the military. Karth knows what's up. Even though his world is a little upside down. And I still can't shake the team mentality. And I never will. So I've joined the Army as a Medic and I intend to do that for as long as I can.
Most of you guys are good people and I hope you become successful in life. I'm just trying to help out in any way that I can and I hope this cleared up some things for you.
I've been clean since Aug 15, 14
So what have we learned?
-You learn how to be in an internet clan
-all the time and effort you put into learning how to be in an internet clan has got you no where in real life, now you're 250 pounds, eat hot pockets for breakfast, lunch, and supper, and lie to yourself about achieving a meaningless title in an internet clan that means nothing in real life. But hey, you're having fun.
-No friends
-No time
I'm going to leave you guys with this and if there is a god. I hope you guys take heed to my words. Thanks for reading./endrantSpoiler(https://cdn.empowernetwork.com/user_images/post/2014/02/05/0/f2/2b96/540x293_20140205_0f22b969a8164d1d7416f34e349900a1_jpg.jpg)[close]

You guys makes this more depressing than it needs to be. Be optimistic and look at the amount of good times you had with your friends or just people you were in ts with. If you really found out that it wasn't fun then really, you would have left way earlier.+1
You guys are desperate, lol
@Walko @Hugonaut.So that they may save us from our addictive ways that will land us in homeless shelters and halfway houses. If we're lucky, they may even give us a 25% discount for their books when they come out describing how they turned their lives around, and how we can too.
If you really hated your time in this game so much, why are you guys even on the forums here?
Everyone in this thread saying shit like "lol why didn't you leave" and "lol so desperate you had gud time get over it" clearly doesn't understand how addiction works. Video game and computer addiction is very real, btw.Yet we are all here.
When you enjoy doing something I don't see how you can call it ''wasted'' time. If you play this and you actually don't enjoy it, then you're ''wasting'' time as you could be spending that time on something you do enjoy.this, if you enjoyed your time with I'd hardly call it wasted. Yeah I've spent a lot of time with the 8th, but they're my friends. I couldn't have imagined spending that time any other way, especially since most of my friends IRL started to have wildly different interests from me and found a different friend group. I essentially wound up with a small group of really good friends, and that's all you really need anyway.
What's your point?That this is pointless. This thread has become a more of a "weep for my soul" thread. People will keep playing, whether or not they stop is up to them. What you are experiencing now is maturity, many others will too and it takes time for some. For those who are now realizing this (I already realized this long time ago, when I started modding) as I always say: Crying about it will not fix anything. The question now is: WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT? ARE YOU GOING TO KEEP REGRETTING THIS FOR YOUR ENTIRE LIFE? OR ACTUALLY GO AND DO SOMETHING PROGRESSIVE? The world is open. Go and take the advantages now instead of crying about the lost past. The future is the present not the past.
I'm here to tell you are all addicted to, and have to stop playing right this very moment because until then, you're all going to be failures.'
My advice to everyone is turn off the game and live your lives.
NW is a waist of life. What I am seeing is the intelligent people are realizing this and quitting. It was a shame to be sucked into it in the first place. It's such a delusion that we all have or are dealing/dealt with. I personally think it's a actual problem.Sounds kinda preachy to me, implying that people who don't do as they advise either aren't living their lives or are unintelligent. But then again, I still enjoy NW, so maybe I'm just not one of the intelligent people that can figure it out.
Walko gets it! I always liked you Walko. You're a smart man. With the exception of not joining the 29th! lol. gg no re.My boy knows. (https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.troll.me%2Fimages%2Fdrizzy-obama%2Fthats-my-boy.jpg&hash=c3e2cf2141acfe5ffafcb0a09bd6d98265d975b7)

Why you heff to be mad?
This community would definitly be better without a forum. All the game would need is in game servers up and no forum to cause these fucking drama. Honestly we don't need to hear people bitch , cry and whine about the game. If you do , you should just turn off your computer and quit your room, and never comeback to the game, simply.LOL
We should all stick with talesworld
Edit: talesworld forums
The only thing I regret about playing this game is meeting you autists.
Eat your shoes

- Worth: £266 (£86 with sales)
- Games owned: 23
- Games not played: 8 (35%)
- Hours on record: 1,326.2h

I didn't realize steam was the only only place to buy games.
For PC gaming it secures the vast majority of game sales revenue. Probably something like 80%.
Lord Gaben has shown us the way. Plus most games you buy outside require a steam account.

https://steamdb.info/calculator/76561198029676636/?cc=usI have 2000hrs more playtime but payed less than an eighth the money.
How exactly isn't it a problem lol
I mean, I did not even pay full Sniper Elite 3, Watch_Dogs, Sleeping Dogs and L.A. Noire... More like less than half...I don't remember the last time I paid full price for any game.
So Like many others in this community, I spent about three years of my life basically based around NW and the community. When I turned 18 and had to focus on real life I realized how absolutely wasted the past years were, pursuing goals that meant nothing, and getting worked up over what is really just a game.
If I could go back I would trll myself to stay away from NW and do real life shit. Life has been so much better not carinng about all the arbitrary bullshit of internet regiments.
What are your guys thoughts on this? How do you justify the obsurd amount of time we have collectively devoted to this game?
My advice to everyone is turn off the game and live your lives.
It's called time management. It's up to you to control if you have an addiction or not, you cannot blame anyone or any entity for it. It's a game after all and the satisfaction of playing this game may be higher than that of doing real life stuff, for me I found that balance years ago.
Gaming is fun but in the end it's really not the most productive thing you can be doing, especially if you are in still in high school. Karth is right, it is about time management but a lot of people in the end especially in this community aren't mature enough to balance school, personal health, and NW all in one and I will be the first person to say I wasn't mature enough to. After I quit playing, I noticed my grades improve at least half a letter grade in all my subjects. I also was less stressed out because I didn't have to worry about dumbass regiment stuff. I found I had more free time to spend with my family and generally felt better because I wasn't sitting in front of a computer for 5-7 hours a day. My advice is if you are in high school, especially if you are a regiment leader or officer, please focus on your school work more than your regiment. I closed a lot of doors for myself by getting average-ish grades in high school rather than do the best I could have. But I'm sure there are people here that can manage their life better than I could so give yourselves a pat on the back.Whata loser

That's true, I haven't thought about that. But I think only a small percentage of people make warband mods. I've only known several.Gaming is fun but in the end it's really not the most productive thing you can be doing, especially if you are in still in high school.

Some of the things what you said are true.
But you say that this isn't productive, and I disagree with you. You can be productive, just look in the Mini Modifications page. This will help you become a better texturer and modeller, and look at some of the mods people have made. I don't think this is unproductive.
after this was made it seems Walko has started a trend of people pretending to quit NW lol
I play RO2 almost exclusively now and honestly it's gotten almost as bad as it was for me in NW. Some days I play for like six hours straight, and then I take a half hour break to eat or get up and I get back to it. Usually it's more like 3-4 hours per day on average though. Not the greatest.
