Ban All Addons

The fix would be for blizzard to build the addons into the game, but I’d still prefer to use 3rd party addons because they get more development and can be customised better. The game is far better because of addons, just like Skyrim is far better because of mods.

Addons are a blessing to this game and one of the reasons it has done so well.

Didn’t we get this thread a few months ago?

Addons are for the mayority personal customize options.
They aren’t causing extra problems in the game.

My larger quest text is really not a problem for anyone else.

OP thinks the game is intentionally made harder and more convoluted and poorly telegraphed. Because of addons I think…

However its a little too late to go back on addons by now.

One thing i do think kinda sucks though is that allot of addons and weak auras are not exactly common knowledge when you go into m+ and raids as a new player. Someone has to tell you witch to get.

Until then your flying the plane blindly.

When he has a problem with 1 specific detail in the game using some kind of addon, he should not talk about addons in general, or use a title like “Ban All Addons”.

This thread confuses me so much.

There’s no reason not to have them.

Just feels like you are too lazy to click like 1 button to download each that you want

Banning DBM? at least 70%-80% of the hc/mythic population would be limited o doing just normal~kills and perhaps the 1st 3/4 bosses on hc …

Imagine playing a game where someone tell you every 5-10 seconds what to do ~where to stand …etc…etc :face_with_spiral_eyes:

This isn’t the first time this topic appears… It stems from a Blizzard statement from the past. That they do take addons into account when they develop their game mechanics.

Leading allot of people to believe that the game and its mechanics are made harder to compensate for the help that addons give.

Some people believe that without addons. Blizzard would develop a simpler gameplay in m+ and raids. Although I am not so sure that would end up being the reality.

This raid is easier than Any thing we’ve ever had tho.

It’s incredibly puggable.

Just a 60-90 minute blast on heroic in a pug each week.

I am personally happy that they are finally tossing ultra hard mechs in the bin.

But this is just season 1, maybe they go back to the ultra difficult stuff next season

Sorry but I win. I don’t use any addons, and most likely never will. Idm QoL addons like UI ones, but stuff like DBM I’ll never touch. It fundamentally changes the game.

Yes, it stems from a statement of the past. But after SL season 3 they made another statement. That was probably the hardest raid ever and it was a rat race with addons that RWF raiders made. Blizz said they aren’t going to do it anymore since it hurts the normal raiding playerbase.

In the meantime they started improving the basic UI and they are trying to improve visible and audio indicators of mechanics.

So people see some statement of expansions ago and go on a tantrum on the forums right now.

Because you don’t raid mythic. I disabled everything in bigwigs since I like to keep my UI clean but certain weakauras are mandatory for coordination, like on M Broodtwister.

We can see blizz making an effort to avoid mechanics that rely on addons, but this has to come entirely from them. You can’t kindly ask the player base to not use any advantage they can, and the cringe threads about banning all addons won’t change anything.

~Yea, because in the real world Blizz are scouring the EU forums looking for high post threads to action, never mind threads where the responses overwhelmingly disagree with the Op~. :rofl:

Now having some :cup_with_straw: with my :popcorn:

I will just contineu to use DBM even tho i do not need it, because i disagree with OP.

Thanks. It is good that people like you keep bumping it up. :+1: So this fundamentally important issue can be seen and discussed by more players.

That is a good reason to continue.

Lets go into the future… Lets play with the thought. Blizzard announces tomorrow that all addons will be disabled.

What do you think the reaction will be? Do you think players will have more fun without them? Cause I dont… I can understand wanting blizzard to develop the game less around addons… But its way too late to suddenly take it all away tomorrow. Its too extreme…

Allot of players will loose their fun with this measure. The damage this would cause.

Ah yeah, so Blizzard can see that the absolute majority disagrees with you and will never even think of touching addons, thats actually a great point!

Addons have been apart of the game for 20 years now… To suddenly take it all away next patch for example? Like imagine… Just picture it. I don’t think the majority of endgame players would celebrate it exactly.
