Hi!
Just as the topic says (I don’t really know if this has been brought up before, apologies in advance if it has.), I would love for Blizzard to take a look at Elder Scrolls Online’s guild system, where you join guilds on your account, and not characters.
A reason for this, is for people like me, altoholics who have at least a character of every class in their roster, if not even more. (or being a madlad with 10 warriors and nothing else, I don’t judge.)
A lot of us probably want to be able to interact with our guild at all times when you’re online, but both the guild and maybe yourself find it a bit excessive to join on say 13 characters (the current class amount).
That kinda sucks, you know, but I fully agree, putting 13 characters in one guild of one person would make the guild stupidly large looking in the end, at least in casual guilds where a lot of people joins.
I do believe that Blizzard could implement a system that allows for the player to join a guild with their bnet user, but also at the same time join guilds on a character level (here I am thinking about f.ex. your RPers who wouldn’t want to join an RP guild with their entire account.)
ESO gives the player the option to join 3 guilds on your account last I checked.
Couldn’t WoW give you the option to join 1 guild on your bnet user and 1 guild per character?
Or at least give you the option to join 1 guild on your Bnet user and be blocked from joining another guild on your individual characters, or just be able to join on individual characters if you’re part of several guilds.
I support this and would like to have something like this implemented in the game. This is the main reason I don’t join any guild because I have plenty of characters and I play them all!
We have communities which are something like this but I don’t know how popular those are. I am in 3 different communities but those are pretty quiet, echo chambers
Oh, and communities are great, but the issues with communities to guilds, to me at least is that it still sort of stops you from being actively in the guild with your characters, and you can’t really expect your guildmates to use the community chat instead of the guild chat (unless you’d make a guild where that’s specifically the rule). So I feel like communities are great to say have a group of aquantances that you wanna do m+s with or some other more nische inside WoW type things, but not for guild communication per se.
I would certainly dig this, (fellow Alt-aholic) Can’t say I’ve used communities much though it does feel somewhat removed from the directness of your characters. I feel it would be a closer way to be tied to your guild regardless of the character, especially with the now to come cross faction guilds.
I mean, that’s very fair! However I find discord communication and direct ingame communication while playing two seperate things, you know? I don’t want to be alttabbing to talk to my online guildmembers while being in the game, discord is more what I use when I’m not in the game and wanna communicate with the guildies
I understand that. I guess I am just pessimistic concerning Blizzard’s stance with this sort of stuff. The base UI only really got an uplift these days, since they did not feel the need as the community did it for them in the form of addons.
