The boar, Argus, and the Brawl bots are all great in their own way, and the game is better for having that variety in gameplay experiences.
I think we should end this “discussion” here. You’re trying to force a logical conclusion that PvP with skilled opponents is definitely superior to anything else in the game. But your approach is not logical at all, despite how much you want to try and deduct your way to that conclusion.
Well, to be fair, many of us got these achievements when you could still queue up with full premades or when games started with 5 vs 15 in the off hours. Some achievements are much harder to get now than a few years ago, so this event gives people a temporary chance to also get these achievements in an easy way.
I felt the bots were harder today, or maybe people just bring out their ungeared alts, not sure, but I actually had some pretty close games (still all wins).
Your presumption is that a harder opponent is a more fun opponent. But there’s no basis for concluding that.
No, I’m saying the Brawl bots are a cool, engaging, and awesome. But them being all of that doesn’t take anything away from the other aspects of the game – they too can be fun and awesome in their own ways. It’s not a zero sum game.
3 - 5 minutes games reward 200g + marks of honor + 8 conquest and a total of 370 honor. Can as well and does regualry give blue 360 gear, pots/herbs/fish etc.
Have yet to see a game where bots aren’t aoed down on farm or starter gy.
No. Again, you’re presuming that because the Brawl Bots are more complex in their design than the boar, then they’re automatically superior in every sense to the boar.
But that’s not really the case. There’s a place for everything. The boar fits perfectly within Elwynn Forest just as the Brawl bots fit perfectly within Arathi Basin, and the variety in the gameplay offered by having both is superior to only having one.
I’m getting confused what this string of arguing is about beyond me trying to explain my sentences 50 times over, so let’s leave it at that.
The Brawl is cool in my opinion. If you don’t like it, then don’t play it. Queue for Arathi Basin as per usual.
They were a lot harder today … I kept getting killed by ‘pets’ such as mindbenders and fel hounds. Probably because I was ignoring them, presuming they’d hit like wet spaghetti. It also wasn’t safe to leave all 4 bases once they were capped to go to the farm as there were stealth capping bots well into the fight, not just at the start.
Well let’s recap this stupid boar argument, shall we?
So why point out the boar deficiencies, as you say?
Well, as the record shows, then it is to point out that different gameplay experiences in WoW are different and not interchangeable as you suggested.
Yes. As many others have pointed out in this thread, then it’s a PvE experience and not a PvP experience like a regular Battleground is.
Even if it aims for imitation, then it feels different and plays different, because it is different.
