Pet peeves: The return (Part 12)

So much stuff at the moment feels like purposeful ‘Make this a Timesink tarpit so they have to grind for it’, rather than, I dunno, making a Game that’s actually fun so people play it for a damn long time anyway?!

I know I’m preaching to the choir here… but sheesh.

Welcome back to total war, Milan.

The relentless jests(?) about her eating you are already rolling in like a tidal wave.

the rng is just terrible. It took me 6 weeks to get the Venture Co. Flyer from the scrap heaps but I got the Venture shredder just last night from my first paragon reward. x.x

For entirely different reasons than anywhere else AD is quickly approaching a singularity (Velves are already outdoing Belves now in active players on some of those dubious tracking wesbites it seems) where merging the factions might be the only way to stop a very literal 90:10 faction ratio from happening.

Tragic IC but it might literally be the only thing left that can salvage AD Horde. Even then it runs the risk of “Oh Alliance can go to Horde places now? Okay, I’ll just make an Alliance guy to chill in Horde places”.

How do the remaining Horde mains on the server feel about this by the way? Are you all just sort’ve consigned to the fate of passing into the annals of history? Are you raging against the dying of the light? Have you just stopped caring because the gap just gets wider and wider each year?

its a difficult question as a goblin main tbh. neutrality/lack of faction is basically just resetting back to factory settings for any IC bilgewaters while its just business as usual for any other goblin. the older troll rper in me however has more mixed feelings on it. trolls were built on their hatred for humans. and elves. its definetly eased over the years. but it feels like its asking a lot to just finally put it to rest. maybe moreso for the zandalari who lets be fair never got real justice for what happened in Dazar’alor. Theres no genuinely right or wrong way to feel about it for good or ill

I’m just rolling my eyes at people and will silently judge you for playing the (imo) far more boring faction.

The silent majority love White Bread and I will proudly be the voice of the silent majority.

The Alliance has the same appeal as Demacia to me. It literally is just the really generic European Classic Fantasy faction and to that I say: God bless.

Can we export the tech and chemicals for Forsaken and Goblin use first? At least the Goblins will make a decent explosion instead of just messing up their streets and refusing to live in it. And Forsaken probably can do more with the chemical stuff anyway. (Reminder that we socially accept Leper gnomes)

ugh
fine
but don’t ask me for things unless they’re at least minimally interesting (so no noble house number 4 591 or similar)
I will send the Azurelode spiders to grab their lunch in your home otherwise.

Also WoW’s plain european flavour around Stormwind will never not feel like plastic to me.

You gotta give it to the Alliance for somehow having the most generic Classic Fantasy vibe possible in a faction but simultaneously doing some insane aura-farming with it.

I never even remember there’s Alliance in that second pic… to me it’s the “cool Death Knight stuff” picture. Could crop the right side and I’d hardly notice composition aside. :upside_down_face:

Give me a day and ill have ‘em shipped. Give me a week and we’ll be cookin’ up demolotions to make better use of Dun Morogh and have the apothecaries up to their eyes in yellow cake. A month? We’ll see…

It might be because i grew up with Oblivion but theres something about it that just scratches a part of my brain that yearns to fight in platemail for king and country

You have no idea how big my sudden need for a proper Forsaken city is right now ;_;

you mean one that isnt just a sewer? at this point they could easily refurbish and expand the upper ruins of Lordaeron into an actual proper city. Just think of the open air apothecarium.

Objectively still by far the coolest version of DKs. WOTLK DKs just lost all their aura when they became playable and I saw 'em everywhere.

i think its the same issue with Demon hunters and void elves. Your meant to be part of a small and genuinely elite sect. Not a widespread mass recruiting group, genuinely a limited number of monsters. It loses its aura when theres thousands of you running around. Loses it further when you see a DK in a plate bikini
