Pet peeves: The return (Part 10)

Given they actually admitted they Dun Goofed with WC3 Reforged?

Anything is apparently possible.

I am actually excited for WC1 remaster, the sheer mechanical clunkiness of an Old DOS game made it a bit Too Much back in the day.

I don’t even know how many hours I sunk into WC2 as a kid, lurking beside my older brother.

And being able to play WC3R properly? Holy moly…

I downloaded and tried launching Reforged 2.0, and it greeted me with a login error and prompted me to input my Battle.net credentials in an embedded browser (which didn’t help).

Not a good first impression.

I mean, it’s probably getting hammered with traffic at the mo, so :sweat_smile:

Housing means nothing!
Give me more customisation for Kul Tirans, Zanadalari, vulpera, void elves, dark irons and Maghar!

(and more tauren faces…)

I liked it in DAO when you selected your party and they were like “Hell yeah” and struck a pose when you chose them and then said “this sucks!” and went back into the background when you de-selected them.

DA2 doesn’t have that, and I think that’s a shame.

The tarot in DAI was good too though, stylish.

Player housing won’t kill off the role-playing scene. The role-players who actually want to engage with strangers will continue to do so. The role-players who mostly remain inside their houses/garrisons likely weren’t going to go out their way to find people they don’t know to interact with.

Both groups will continue to co-exist and there’s plenty of valid reasons as to why someone may prefer to curate exactly who they interact with when it comes to role-play in the first place. Especially if they’ve encountered some of the nastier/creepier individuals and guilds in the past.

Oshi no Ko has ended and uhhh, wow, what a wet fart of an ending that was.

The reincarnation stuff was entirely superfluous, hinting at some sort of larger plan or plot that never came to be. Guaranteed wasn’t written with any sort of plan in mind for it. Making it up as they went but couldn’t stick the landing.

Yeah, except for all those “ascended” spider elves. In legion we had elves turn into spiders. In tww we have spiders turn into elves :unamused:

Regarding new patch, goblin content is great but i wouldn’t get too excited about the car thing as everytime blizz tries to put a different genre mechanic into wow, it ends badly, ie all the horrible turret quests they just keep adding since cata.

im a housing addict in eso, gw2, xiv and swtor, ive spent long hours decorating cool and cozy houses. i keep seeing people cry that its lame but i love it. i wanna make a cozy dwarven home in winterspring with a bunker where i keep raining artillery to annoy the local night elves

Well, guys, it’s been fun. :woman_shrugging:

I assume people will continue to devolve RP into carefully curated, pre-planned events by invitation only as cities are lost to OOC regulars and our shared tale comes to a natural end.

i dont think housing will end the world as much as people already fear it will. i just cannot see the wow crowd going as all in with it as other mmo communities do

There are literally so many guild concepts, events, Stuff that just Will Not Work inside a house, and I don’t see those ideas dying anytime in the next, say, 30 years?

lining up and doing military drills in the guild basement, just like Grand Marshal Guild Leader commands :saluting_face:

If people start reaching for the mortar tubes, run :grimacing:

Exactly this tho. AD is nothing if rich in concepts that NEED the open world to work. XIV esque venues I would hope would not be sustainable here because i wont even entertain them as rp points. As guild bases, as rp locations like…restraunts, haunted houses, personal homes…anything really that the open world doesnt overly provide or is useful on a smaller scale, they have their uses but they wont replace what AD does best with the open world.
