| Nov 20, 2014 at 21:16 | comment | added | strugee | @MichaelMcGriff never played WoW, never been in that situation either, although I work with software projects that have to consider users in those conditions. guess I just have a different perspective :) | |
| Nov 20, 2014 at 21:05 | comment | added | Michael McGriff | @strugee those reasons seem logical. I guess they never occurred to me as I was never in any of those situations back when I played WoW. | |

| Nov 20, 2014 at 21:02 | comment | added | strugee | @MichaelMcGriff obviously I can't speak for OP but three valid reasons I can think of are a) if you didn't have enough space on your internal drive you might want to do this, b) if it was more convenient for you to carry the drive around rather than download the game each time (maybe you often borrow computers), and c) if you had a slow or capped internet connection and (again) didn't want to download the game each time. | |
