Tuebit from WorldIV has a great post on turning from hardcore into casual. Quote: "We all start out strong. The average 20-hours per week was nothing. And then, you know … life happens. Career, spending time with friends whose names aren’t spelled in 1337, kids, mortgages, the inevitable switch from beer to wine spritzers. It happens to everyone. If you’ve got a job, kids or a significant other, you’re no longer playing nightly for hours. And if you still are, you probably soon won’t have a job, kids or significant other."
He then proceeds to specify what kind of game he is looking for as a casual gamer, without wanting to play what is currently offered under the label of "casual game". And I agree very much. Just because we are adults now with real life responsabilities that keep us from raiding all night doesn't mean that we want to replace epic adventures of a game like World of Warcraft with cutesy games from Club Penguin. We're casual, not brain dead.
