I need to blow off some steam:
negative:
1.) Timegating: SOD really feels crippled.
BRD current best dungeon limited to 50% of its content and npcs lev 55+ feel quite bad to kill.
Professions up to 300 skilllevel, however some again timegated, no specialization for e.g. blacksmithing possible.
PVP limited to Rank 7 + very poor BG queing process, we need to grp up in order to queue-up as individuals.
2.) Boring PVE content that feels like work:
Incursions brainless and absolutly no fun, please dont do this for lev 60.
“Wild offering” logout skip in Maraudon, there is just no fun to do this. Just feels like work.
Despite farming BIS equip in ST, complete phase 3 can be done in 1-2 weeks. However complete phase will take 3 months+.
3.) No serious PVP possible:
Still no balanced PVP. To say everithing should be “imba” is just an excuse for poor game design.
4.) Problematic Guild line-up:
Change from 10man raid to 20 man raid. I would have done the same, because I wanted to have 40man raids, but this simply killed lots of guilds.
You are losing complete moementum that you started so greatly with P1.
The idea of SOD was great, lots of fun when we started, nobody needs to rush, nobody feels left behind, but now you are destroying SOD. The current state feels crippled and incomplete and thats what we will have for 3 month.
Telling gamers to play other games, for me as a gamer simply means, weak excuse and you simply don´t care about us.
Blizzard said you can work on different projects, there will be no negative impact on any IP.
That was clearly lie. If you cannot manage to work on different projects simultaneously then please simply don’t do them.
I am a big fan of classic, big fan of blizzard games, but current situation is pretty hard to accept.
P4 has the best line-up, please don’t ruin it, please communicate in advance in order to keep us active. Every week a little information is better than no information for 2 weeks.
Please don´t cripple/timegate P4. Let ppl play the old updated content, no shortcut with incursions.
If P4 fails, there is no more need for me to come back for P5/6/7.
Yeah, maybe add r10 in pvp, with final reward pvp epic mount.
Surly 10%+ will directly buy epic mount when they are 60 anyhow.
With a pvp epic mount, they would provide more content now, without changing endgame to drastically.
In PVE allow exalted rep grind for argent of the dawn, rewards are weak anyhow.
Add more heirloom items for durotar supplies. This will also be an incentive to level alts. Make one rep level above exalted with 20 slot bag plus race epic mount in just a different colour.
Add a long sleeping bag questline for +20% XP bonus. 3% was never worth the effort.
Make a long BRD questline and offer +20%.
Ppl would do this with all their twinks.
Scale complete BRD down to lev 50.
Maybe just remove epic items like ironfoe and hoj.
Remove incursions, or make them daily.
Pick up all quests one time, finish and get a box with random profession rewards, like recipies or mooncloth, elixiers, or arcanite, …
Blizzard is dead, same like WoW. SoD just confirmed it. They will ruin P4 for sure. After all the hopes for patches, and the disappointments after them, at the moment when casters was ovetuned and shamans still not nerfed - me and a lot of people I know have finally decided to quit the game. This game brings only pain and disappointment instead of pleasure. Developers are noble trolls, prank has succeeded to fame
