Most WoW Forever players are spending hours glued to their desk chairs. But not everyone! Two players have found ways to turn levelling into an incredibly impressive fitness challenge.
A Literal Walkthrough
First up is Big Guy Grind, who is taking the term walkthrough quite literally. He’s working towards level 60, while physically walking on a treadmill and keeping his character moving at RP walk speed.
Big Guy Grind will be counting exactly how many steps it takes to hit level 60 in WoW Forever. But this is not his first rodeo. He has already reached max level in Retail, which took him 433,000 steps! Some of his viewers have estimated that hitting level cap in Forever may take up to 2 million steps! Either way, he’s in for the long haul.
A Hunter Who Actually Has to Draw His Bow
Then there’s VanityProjects who is using motion capture to control his Hunter without a mouse or keyboard. Want to run? Run on the spot. Want to shoot your bow? Physically mimic the movement and your character fires.
He’s even taken his motion-controlled Hunter into the PvP ruleset. In the clip below, you can watch him take down another player using his rather unconventional setup.
So whilst the rest of us are slowly moulding into our gaming chairs, these two are proving that no matter how addictive Forever may be, you don’t have to sacrifice your fitness goals to grind your way to 60!
