Yeah by all that reliable source that also claimed that Legion was a dead expansion and worse than WoD.

Indeed. Arena was the worst thing that was added in TBC. It ruined so much for PvE because all of a sudden stuff was getting balanced around a couple of characters standing in a little sandbox.

But that has nothing to do with opinion and everything to do with business and market strategy.

WoW has a high subscriber peak because Blizzard quickly pursued a very aggressive market strategy for the game. They rapidly expanded into a global market and localized the game to a multitude of languages. That combination of rapid market expansion and market penetration is what made the subscriber numbers climb to 12 million. They climbed to 12 million because Blizzard got the game out in every local store in every part of the world within a few years – localized for most major languages.
That’s a feat that most other companies spend decades on, if they even pursue it at all. Getting a foothold in China alone is a huge feat, and for WoW, the Chinese playerbase accounted for 5 million subscribers alone during WotLK.

It’s all about market strategy and actually selling the game in as many parts of the world as possible, with a ton of advertisement and a strong local presence.
Blizzard were amazing at pulling that off. Better than anyone else at the time.

You’re an idiot if you think you can correlate the subscriber numbers to the quality of the game design alone.

How many rolls of toilet paper I can sell in 15 years has less to do with the quality of my toilet paper and more to do with my ability to get that toilet paper into every supermarket there is in the world.

I mean… it’s more fun to PvP when you don’t get 1-shotted by other players. I’m sure it’s hilarious to be the one doing the 1-shotting, but as someone who’s usually on the bottom of the PvP pile, this was a kindness, and I don’t really want it to change.

I do want to see less class buttons that are “buffs you for the next short period” because I waste about 5 GCDs getting ready to nuke, and that’s annoying. However that’s a matter of skill design. Buff buttons should not be part of your combat rotation.

Wish granted; it’s versatility :slight_smile:

just the fact youre comparing toilet paper to a video game people choose to pay to play, and choose to unsubscribe to shows how delusional you are, dont worry soon you’ll get your MVP even tho your posts are completely worthless

Disclaimer: I love playing quick games - Sekiro, Bayonetta, DMC, Nier: Automata, BDO. I have the mechanical skill to play WoW as it is currently, but I don’t like how quick it has become. I think Blizz should focus on making a slow game fun. People want to press buttons quick because pressing a button doesn’t feel impactful, it doesn’t feel like the button matters.

The slow pace of the game is a great equalizer - people of various abilities can come and compete, not for their mechanical skill, but for their understanding of a deep game with stats, and many pieces of gear, talents, builds, classes, etc. WoW should test how well you know the game, not how quick you can press buttons.

Yesterday there was a thread about someone complaining about getting randomly oneshotted in Horrific Visions. That never happens, you never get randomly oneshotted. But you get oneshotted by things that happen too quick for you to notice them. You get oneshotted when there’s so much going on around you so fast that you just can’t pay attention to everything.

People now need to rely on addons to give them proper feedback, beacuse the game is too quick for you to be able to follow what’s going on on the screen. The GCD is fine. Some skills need to be taken off it, the ones that makes sense to be able to cast them while attacking. And while we’re at it, autoattack should be completely removed. So every single attack your character makes is your own.

Oh didn’t you hear? Im already writing the next expansion.

if you like i could write you in it…

That random NPC standing outside the inn and appears only at night shouting abuse at passers by.

“WHY DIDN’T THEY LIST… hic I COULD HAVE MADE THISH GREAT I SHPEAK FOR THE PEOPLESH!” before guards hurry you along saying “go home you’re drunk…”

Oh and just fyi, there’s only ONE edge lord writing cringy dross in here son. And it certainly isn’t me.

Now why don’t you go and regale us with your calm and collected views on the state of the game (as you see it) right now.

Fascinating stuff.

cool story bro, but not as cool as your story from the other thread, unlucky

“Oh believe me I can sit through an entire movie of people being slaughtered left and right but soon as i even see a dog in distress or even hear a whimper i’m yelling at the TV much to the consternation of my wife who just says “Oh sit down it’s a movie for gawd’s sake.””

give us more story like that bro, im sure we all care

Well you obvieusly do sence yuu raplied and made a little yorn yurself.

Not really wrked this oit have ya?

That was number 3 btw.

hmm think we are all silly now, one is raging against any poster here, and the rest of us is feeding this baby troll rager again.

ps I call this person a baby troll rager, becuse he/she is not capable of doing a proper troll post eighter, what is sad, becuse the talent of trolling if done right is realy great to read and can be realy fun also.
