Gaming Signal: 40-boxing WoW?

40-boxing WoW?

From the WoW forums comes an interesting discussion on the feasability of 40-boxing the game. That is, one person controlling 40 characters. Insane? Maybe. Impossible? Maybe not.

And over on Terra Nova, the discussion keeps going, suggesting that if you did this you're probably playing a different kind of game (more like an RTS) than you are an MMORPG. Imagine if you could mod WoW to the point where you controlled all 40 from a tops-down view and could click and move them that way?

Thanks to WoWInsider for the news.

So when you've got 40 characters up to level 60 in Wow, the only thing you could do is sell them or give them out as x-mas gifts to your friends.

I might actaually like that, the "grind" of MMO's has really got me down lately. I think it's because I have a 2 year old in the house right now. My patience for leveling used to be much higher than it is now.

So which one of you curren't WOW'ers is going to get my theif up to 60 from 31?
