We were having a healthy discussion going on strong. Then you and “your crew members” like Tanvar came along. Throwing things as reasons which were completly without thought and only about your selfish ego’s.
Now you come here trying to (secretly as in ohh we do not notice this) promoting a podcast nobidy ever heard about or wants to hear.
There are many, many arguments detailled under this thread, I will quote again:
Boosting is bad because it:
Help bots start profitting earlier and create an influx of new botters.
Devaluate the time and effort that other players put into levelling new characters.
Devaluate profession mats because people can boost alch/tailor alts to make transmute alts.
Skew faction balance more, especially in horde dominated servers, as many guilds can now change factions easier.
Fill the game with more fotm classes and specs, like hunters and warlocks.
Make the community a lot more toxic, since a lot of unexperienced/new players will be in the same basket with experienced players, causing issues and everyone will start calling others out for being “boosted”.
Gangster you’re basically ignoring anything that made TBC great and requesting retail features.
You have stated in a previous thread that we are stuck in the past so why are you still here?
Go play your modern games and leave us to enjoy our older game
What you said is what I was after, a civil talk on it. I am not Gods gift to Earth and I know best but to get the talk going without the nonsense.
I do see where you are getting at. You don’t agree with me (that much) and that’s fine, considering how you put it. Just like I don’t agree them adding a shortcut for money.
implying you need experience to press 1 button in tbc, kekw.You cant make a classic community toxic, because toxicity already at its peak thanks to people like you.
Cmon man you are smarter then this.
TBC classic is not the same as TBC if we are being specific.
It will get changes. Like the boost, you do not want it but it is here to stay.
So… why not more usefull improvements which i have a post about. Which you can visit and talk in it and bring in some ideas of your own.
Blizza…uhm I mean Activision doesn’t make enough money already with Retail with all the name/race changes, subs, server transfers, mounts, pets etc.
So they “need” to milk Classic TBC more by adding something that wasn’t there in the first place by your standard?
So yes hurr durr. I wasn’t going to reply to this but there, I said it. If you don’t have anything of valey to add to this topic then, well I shouldn’t have to say it.
There are plenty other simular threads out there that can help with your need to say things like that.
And how is that reply helping or adding anything helpful to the topic at hand? Thanks for making it easier whom I won’t spend time on. Good luck in life.
In MY opinion, a mmorpg need to require effort. It makes you feel more attached to your character, rewards actually feel earned, not handed to you. Investment into your character is really imortant. A boosted char set you up to try it out and then throw ut in the bottom of your character selection tab because you cheesed it. And honestly. If you can’t commit enough to level a character from 1-58, WoW is bot the game for you. And don’t give me the bullshift answer “I’m only in it for end game/pvp”. There are plenty of other games that can satisfy your needs. It is 100% obvious that the character boost only ended up coming to TBC because money. But hey! Let’s go down the same slippery slope we did with retail…
Another great video. Be mindful. May contain trigger words for Retailers.
(Why does no one understand what’s important in an MMORPG anymore?)
It’s the sad truth that you can’t go to most game forums nowdays and expect a civil talk. Just the same bs all over. Nothing more but selfish, insecure and “I’m so badass I have X title” attitude. Funny thing is, these people don’t get it that by acting like they do, make people not want to play the game(s).
Imagine bringing STAYSAFE as a PRO in your arguments, a man that just get streamer benefits in a MMORPG and cries about using DRUMS in TBC but still want to min max and want the change on DRUMS.
Talking about a company which lays off bunch of people on record profit years, I don’t think they are thinking much about paying people. They could be consumer friendly for change, there are better ways to handle the catch up than boosts.
Boosts are simply the least classic friendly and easiest to monetize way to go about it. It’s extremely lazy and people who defend it tooth and nail have to be incredibly lazy, if leveling with lower exp requirements is a huge barrier for entry. Also they are marketing this decision as something that’ll help people to catch up with their friends, minimum 30% faster leveling + prepatch should be more than enough for someone to catch up with their friends, in terms of level, prior to launch.
This system only benefits bots who farm balance via retail and then are able to buy boosts on Classic in vast quantities, it’d not be at all surprising if majority of the characters that this feature will be used on are bots.
