Roflmao.
The irony is you accuse me of being some uber toxic casual when you consider speedrunning heroic dungeons as being a challenge.

I’ve been in this thread for 5 seconds are you gonna pull already?
For real tho, It’s farm content, people are going to rush it because…they are farming it.
if you wanna make a chill slow group find likeminded people and team up with them.
The game has sadly lost the fun side to the multiplayer experience.
The only mmo part of the game left behind is having to team up to complete harder content, other than that most ppl have no desire to communicate with other players.
They don’t talk or say thankyou if you help or heal them
They park their huge mounts or pets on top of questgivers
They open up their repair and transmog mounts on top of NPCs
They rush ahead in instances and abuse or kick those that don’t meet their absurd standards.
You might as well not exist.
It amazes me what these kind of players see in an MMO
Its not even just that. WoW is a product from a bygone age of MMORPG, where "getting your character to max level would take a month was considered… fast ".
What are the popular games these days? The ones which you log in, pew pew for 20 mins, log out. So people wanting to rush stuff is not something WoW unique.
Remove quality of life features and all you do will make what remains of the current playerbase…even more leave.
oh I agree, it would probably be the death of the game, the focus has been very much on casual playing for a long time, so the PUG features are pretty core to that, especially with it being newer generations of players, there is a few of the old guard left but not many, I guess most of them play Classic, if anything
I mean you guys keep making these echo chambers where you bash the rest of the community for being antisocial, and then ask for more solo content so you can isolate yourselves from each other.
Very ridiculous
This is the very reason I stopped tanking some years ago.
And people wonder why there’s a tank shortage with this “gogogogo or take the toxic ranting and get kicked” mentality…
A behaviour I’ve witnessed sooo many times while playing dps feeling sorry for the tank that was doing a fine job, just not at hyper speed.
100%
Recently they were pushing “very fast leveling!” As a feature.
Hell…they re-released an entire expansion with modifications to fit “gogogo”/speedrun! (MoP Remix)
That’s what I meant in the OP by “gogogo mentality is taking over all game modes”
Why ? If you dont like M+ you dont do M+.
If you dont do M+ you dont raid either (because you dont gear for it).
All that is left is PvP.
I dont.
I said it to Succubus already.
(A) Endgame is still not available until the 17th of September.
(B) Endgame is VASTLY more popular than solo gameplay
(C) People are preparing their mains and their alts FOR endgame the 17th of September.
So you “explorers” are stuck with the vast majority of the playerbase until 17th of September. After that, were all gone to do our keys, raids, arenas, whatever…
We saw the campaign once with 1 toon. We dont need to explore more. Now we want our gear as fast as possible so we can disconnect and watch Netflix with our partner. While we wait for the 17th of September.
What is the issue with that ?
Is that some sort of “gogogo mentality” conspiracy ? Some philosophical discourse about “player base” or something ?
NO… Its first weeks of the expansion. It happened 10 times in the last 20 years. Not a big deal.
Relax.
People seem to have forgotten or never learned the lessons of Pandaria. Especially those of Chen Stormstout.
This game only exists for m+ and raiding in its current state
So we go Do a mythic zero instead, and everyone is “gogogo, fast!”
And we answer “hey man, there is no timer”
And we get
“You’re a F noob, go uninstall”
Man…if you think we only suffer with gogogo people in the beginning of an expansion and then they disappear…you’re completely (like abysmally) wrong.
But I do M+. Thats why your comment is so dumb. Just because I enjoy something does not mean I dont have the self-awareness to realize that it impacts the rest of the game negatively.
See the difference is I am able to empathize with the rest of the playerbase, whilst you seem to be consumed by selfishness and navel-gazing.
Great post. Blizzard should not be making the game or cater to these kind of efficiency dorks.
NO
Relax.
Stop being so mad lol.
I´ve played this game since the OG WoW beta in America, I know the history better than you.
The rush mentality that is spilling over into normal group finder dungeons has never been this bad, and a large part of this is due to how Blizzard is designing the game.
Very simple.
Actually insane that you think Blizzard should design the game around soulless efficiency dorks like you who make up a minority of the launch playerbase.
If you stay outside the main pillars, suffer the consequences. The consequences being : dealing with the Alts of people that actually engage with end-game.
Also. If you dont want ‘gogogo mentality’ but you want something hard… try hard M+ keys…
You cant “gogogo” a +18. You have to perform perfectly but its not “gogogo” as you call it.
Or Mythic Raiding. No timer.
If people are rushing it’s because the content is easy and they make their own challenge by going fast.
Or they don’t enjoy it and just want to get it over with.
I’m not a fan of insane rushing (luckily M+ is slower paced than random HC now), but I’m not gonna force my preferences on the tank. The same way I don’t kick a tank who’s going slow.
Ppl ask for more solo content because they’re fed up having to deal with morons who want to rush everything and abuse them
If you speak true, then you’re one of the few and may Azeroth bless you for your patience. There is a reason why tanks are few and far between. One (and a big one) of them is rando dps attitudes.
I dont have time to explore. I have 2h of gameplay a day. Not more, not less.
And this weekend its with the family.
So no. I dont see why if I can do a dungeon in 8 minutes, why should I not do it in 8 minutes?
Do like I do. Get friends with the same mentality as you.
My time is important and precious. And Blizzard should most definitely cater to the majority of the playerbase that thinks the same exact way.
As you can observe currently.
If its such a minority… why do you keep seeing them in dungeons ?
I played since beta as well …
But players change. Its not vanilla anymore.
And if you would like to go back to those times… go play classic. Its available.
And if the playerbase is so much larger as you claim, you should have zero issues finding someone to do a dungeon there…
If the game offers incentives for overgeared/overskilled players to join easy content (augment runes in random HC for example), then you’ll get people who just blast through it ASAP.
The alternative is 2 hour queues for DPS.
In early cata dungeons there was no rush because the dungeons absolutely obliterated people, but people didn’t like that either even though it’s literally what people here have been asking for:
A challenge that’s about completion, not rushing.
So frankly I have to take blizzard’s side on this one. They tried a LOT of things over the years and every time some group threw a tantrum until they had to rework it. WoW has too many TYPES of players crammed together.
