It seems clear to me blizzard have no idea what they are doing but here are the 5 stages of alliance
Stage 1 Denial
Even though all the servers are becoming horde dominant while leveling seeing every zone outnumbered 5/1 alliance think that it will all balance out eventually due to longer queues on the horde wishful thinking I know.
Stage 2 Anger<------ most of you are here
Upon realising that blizzard caters to every whim of the horde. Blizzard gives the dominant faction whatever they want.The alliance are furious, I will unsubscribe they say,May as well roll horde they say,I have been betrayed by a once loved company we take to the forums in droves furious at the decisions in blizzard HQ,
Stage 3 Bargaining
Now that you have horde Vs horde the remaining horde/alliance beg for changes. Please can I have duel spec we canât find a tank,someone rolled need on an item I wanted can we have personal loot please, can I faction change please, what about barbershop? Can I turn PvP off? What about making raid finder or dungeon finder perhaps? Oh I want one of those ashes of alar things please add to store.
Stage 4 depression
When you realise that blizzard only care about one thing money you realise the game will never be like TBC you realise its a shadow of a shadow of a company that used to be good hating yourself for not realising this sooner even the developers who made wow possible have jumped ship. Why did I not see the signs.
Stage 5 Acceptance
Alliance now realising that daddy blizzard does cater to the horde we have to accept what the game is we have a few choices
Migration to a pve server and live out the PVE content and play a game that has better balanced PvP instead
Re-roll horde if you canât beat them join them you will have a much easier time with racials and world domination, easier groups the game might be not bad if you donât care that there will hardly be any world PvP.
Un-subscribe realising that Blizzard is not the same and not even one of the top MMOs anymore you decide to play the king of mmo FF14 or abandon all hope for the genre.
To use one of Tartanangelâs famous quotes in reverse
#SELFISH ALLIANCE MENTALITY.
He did all he could spamming these forums everyday mocking Horde players who actually wanted to be able to play the game and now the chickens have come home to roost.
King of MMO âFF14â Yeah good luck with that one dude, hope you enjoy your flying car mount.
Havenât you quit for retail already? I mean you already talk down tbc and praise retail all day.
I still think these changes are very damaging to the game but at least I can take light hearted comedy of the situation, I am 100% sure the alliance pop will decline dramatically after this but your used to 90% horde realms on retail maybe i know nothing of how it feels to play on a majority and should try horde or quit.
i still hope blizzard will make fraction transfers soon. i dont want a game where everyone plays the same faction. even if most alliance claim horde plays because of racials and fotm reason, most of us do not. i would still prefer playing undead.
same fraction bgâs are a solution for a short time. but the long term goal should be a 50:50. i welcome every fraction transfer. would like to play a gnome myself but i would never reroll.
a reroll would be no solution for me because i lose my friends, char progression and my gold.
My arguments are still valid what you talking about? you will see the impact of this in a few months.
I may as well be a and roll the ez Faction why not get some overpowered racials,easy to find groups have no opposition from the opposing faction can gank people in the world and not have to worry about them getting more people to kill me oh and I can make cry posts like you guys asking for retail features and have blizzard implement them.
