With Remix in particular, it feels like its also caused a bit of an impact and hurt the community/playerbase to some extent.

Mainly because after some of the exploits have been nerfed on Remix, a couple of raids and bosses(mainly on heroic and above) now require some basic tactics.

However, a surprisingly large amount of people are completely clueless about them, but also refuses to learn them even after wiping.

because MoP was a big content expac for me, for the most part i still remember most of the tactics of each raid, though im glad sometimes when one still catches me lacking, like Elegon’s intermitent phase. but your completely right. all people want to do is just mash their head on the boss and burst it down as quick as possible for maximum bronze/threads per hour but like…you’ve 90+ days for it why the rush.

as someone on reddit accurately noted, your punished more for doing the actual mechanics than just bursting the boss with most groups. and i swear its almost always DH’s who are the most vocal about not wanting to do mechanics…

They struggled so hard just to give the Forsaken (who’re just undead humans) a leadership/main chars that aren’t human model/elf model.
It’s really annoying.

Already did :sunglasses:

Look up what the AfD did lol

There’s fansub drama around Girl’s Band Cry.

One of the characters tells another she likes her.
The other one responds asking what she means.
And they in turn say “kokohaku desu” - literally “It’s a confession”, used almost exclusively for specifically romantic confessions.

One of the fansub groups chose to translate it instead as “I want you to feel loved” which is…well, obviously that’s where the drama came from.

kick back, relax, collect loot. Thanks for the carry idiots.

im not gonna go there about the fact the face of the forsaken is a porcelain human…

litterally. one dude went for a smoke while waiting for summons at the start of terrace last night and sha of fear was nearly dead when he got back

The rush mostly works until you hit a spike in difficulty on ToT and Siege of Orgrimmar in particular on HC and above. Especially on a few bosses like Durumu and Dark Animus. Then people just…seem to break down mentally and are unable to understand very basic mechanics and strategies.

We also had a rogue yesterday in Heart of Fear HC that despite being told by the entire raid group(including the raid leader sending raid warning and whisper over 6 separate times), kept standing underneath Garalon, causing it to stun us every two seconds.

Rogue was eventually kicked mid-raid and blew a casket acting completely surprised.

awdpoiwjpodaad that. these people deserve to step barefoot on lego. i rarely get frustrated in raids but the stun every 2 seconds was making me livid. every group its the same

“consequences of my actions? at this time of day in this part of pandaria localised ENTIRELY in my raid? no I dont see them.”

I did, it’s not that bad.

(Though I did it intentionally, it’s the unexpectedness that contributes to the pain, I’d reckon)

weirdly they’re not running in my area. strange that.

They are absolutely horrendous, and they are very similar to SD here. Who were also recently caught (after a year of undercover by a journalist) to have been using tax money to literally hire white supremacists to harass political opponent and spread misinformation to destabilize the country. All caught on vocal and video recording extensively and directly ordered by the party leader.

The rest of the conservative parties have just mumbled about “its not good”(but not taken any other steps), and SD themselves has gone full on MAGA, claiming its all a deepfake conspiracy by the left and if they win next election, they have stated they will flat out suspend all journalism not directly approved by them and crack down on opposing parties.

Oh and for a bonus, the journalist who did the undercover caught a party official on tape literally threatening to have him killed if he “snitched” when he resigned from the role in preparation to end his undercover and do the report.

Other annoyances also include people who immediately pull the boss(usually a dps too) the second they enter the room, even if its only them there and half the party is still trying to loot.

Lei Shi in Terrace is also a prime example of this, as you cant loot Tsulong’s chest while in combat.

Yep. Every time.

Also unrelated to WoW, the EBU is now allegedly(finally) investigating Israel’s behavior during Eurovision. Primarily all the rule violations both prior and during it all(including straight up vote fraud or attempts of it).

Many artists have also cited that their delegation was incredibly hostile towards them and actively harassed several other participants backstage, but were told to not talk about it until post-eurovision.
