I paid my college almost entirely off World of Warcraft. Both in game playing and also being a ghostwriter for "lore blogs" to slap their name on. And I didn't even set out to do so, I just played enough that I got good enough (and read enough) to be able to get paid for my performances.
Unfortunately Streaming and Twitch killed that entire market. No one wants to pay for a run from a random in a "top 25" guild when they could be ON STREAM with their favorite eceleb or WF guild.
You’re saying people don’t buy boosts because they would rather watch Twitch?
I'm saying Streamers, even those barely pulling any viewers, stole all my customers. Having VODs and recordings of your play does wonders for your reputation and ability to pull over "dude trust me we're good, look at our achievements and gear."
It was a dying market for me anyway. I sold Challenge Mode runs, which only lasted for two expansions before being replaced with the absolute garbage that is M+.
😂 I bought challenge mode for the portals years ago when I played.
In current content they are some of the most useful things imaginable, and they still have good value for returning to the content to farm whatever you may need years later.
Its no wonder DF brought them back.
