Drop Monthly fee

No they haven’t.

Winterveil and Hallow’s end got small Grinding zones in WoD. The last proper update to hallows end as the Worgen quests in Cata. Lately we get a few toys.

They add new elders and fires eventually but there’s been no proper updates in many, many years. I got my Strange Trip mount in 2010.

I was talking about Guild wars 2 not WOW. :rofl: Yeah i know WOW hasn’t. My post was continued reply to someone who did not know how and how much GW2 does free updates between expansions thats all.

I rather liked GW2 but I made a Warrior and hated the constant dodging that had to be done to just stay alive. I resorted to using a bow but never felt as fun.

I think Blizzard probably borrowed a few ideas from them with World Quests.

I think that too, especially with invasions and incursions. I wish they would just fully steal the whole open world event system.

If you ever go back to try the gw2 again, check out some spellbreaker specs for you warrior with axe/dagger dagger/axe combo, some of those specs give you survivality of the blood dk but in the body of dps character.:grin:

Its monthly fee and cash shop exists.

Imagine without the monthly fee, you will see bfa season 3 gear in cashshop when season 2 did not finish.

Sadly there are so many more charges to an F2P, not the odd optional extra mount.

Sadly would not solve the problems the game has.

The game has garnered a sort of odd reputation, and most of that is of Blizzard own making.

Mention Blizzard now and most joke, you have a phone don’t you?

They are seen largely as a company so out of touch with the player base it’s like they live on a different planet and honestly…I can’t even disagree with that sentiment.

Companies do well by being honest and open, Blizzard right now are doing neither and for that are losing trust from their own customers.

If they made the game free that would mean they have to earn the money a different way. I.e. huge amounts of microtransactions.

That usually doesn’t go too well in MMOs.

f2p generally won’t work for mmo. They all start as time saving or cosmetic bonuses but at some point to keep the boat aflot, they all start to dish out items who are op to cash in and after that is a slow decline to p2w. world of tanks is a good example.

there are a few minor exception as gta online, but since you have to buy the game to enter it is slightly different.

No, drop the payed features - race change, faction change and server transfer! These should NOT be payed features.

I agree, TESO is good in the beginning then it gets boring fast. While, ffxiv is a better Mmorpg and for where the direction is held, its going upwards on the graph…

Edit:
TESO,
Cons
*Un memorable characters.
*Laggy game, especially at peak times the latency becomes worst.
*looots of rng and loot boxes
*PvE skill lvl is trash.
*it’s a PvP game and every six months the game changes, So you have to grind gear again to be competent.
*poor communication form devs and player base like in wow currently but a slightly better.
*boring story

Pro
*B2P
*Good graphics
*TES game
*PvP and combat becomes a little addictive.
*fully voiced dialogs

Ffxiv

Cons
*PvP is uninteresting

Pros
*Good story
*Good communication with devs and players
*Devs are passionate about their work and bring out something that awesome to the community
*Good class system, can switch them on the fly
*Awesome dungeon and raid experience
*Memorable characters with good plot story
*Good GRAPHICS

  • and more… Its what every hardcore raider or PvE player wants.

WoW

Cons
*Very Poor communication ( currently)
*outside P2P but inside F2P.
*Time gating every single thing
*Destroying lore and famous npc characters
*Poor story, currently
*Moderate Graphics
*Chore gameplay ( currently)
*unrewarding loot
*Toxic Rng grind.

Pro

  • WoW
    *memorable characters
    *Pervious expansion where better like Wotlk

What you mean is “Drop fee, get players back, have a minority P2W in the game”.

No, Just no…

They could reduce the fee but if they drop it completely this game will sink like the titanic.

Please no. If you want to play for free, grind the gold. The worst change ever would be this game going free to play, both in terms of the quality of the game and the players who usually follow with f2p games.

Square Enix made the best move I’ve ever seen of a games company.

They showed their true colours with how they managed the original fiasco that was the initial game.

They openly apologized and stopped taking money from people then rebuilt the entire game.

They did that because of how much the franchise meant to the company.

Rly? I think ff online has some horrible textures compared to their single player games. And waaay too little quests if you want to lvl other jobs

Everyone in favor of the store but not WoW as F2P? Why not, you can just buy the things you want with gold?

For other jobs to lvl, you must do leves quest or place of the dead. You get alot of exp there…

It does have good textures but not the best like Bdo.

Yea but leves etc get so boring. My bard is stuck at 63 doing quests to continue msq. But cba anymore

Yeah, it does get, that the reason I play three mmo games
1.ffxiv( pve only and discord friends) (sub4life)
2. WoW( pvp and pve) ( unsub)
3.Teso( PvP only) (sub)
but it’s worth investing on ffxiv for the content they deliver is awesome.
