in the past, a lot of people would play wow for a significant, or majority of the patch, and maybe unsub for a little bit once they “completed” the content to play another game or other irl stuff, then come back again next patch and rinse and repeat. we’d always be coming back.
however, what blizz seems to be doing now is making it so that you need to log on every day to complete some things. this burns people out and also makes them think what are they doing because its the same thing day in day out and you can never complete anything because you need to log on every day to do the stuff as the grind takes so long.
blizz should focus on making a game that people will willingly play for about 60-90% of the expansion, but always come back, rather than trying to force us to play 100% of the time, and not caring that we may not come back in the future cause they got their money now. eg. 6 month mount subs.
This is total crap. Most players could not respec every week, so were forced to make some trade off and take some talents for pvp or for farming. Hybrid warrior spec was popular, and within those hybrids lots of customizations, some good for pvp and some good for dps and some good for offtanking. Retail players are total degenerates. They don’t even have talents. They just chose a “spec” and afk in cities rolling their daily slot machine for their free epics. Total cesspit
This so much. World used to be your oyster: you log in and then go do things you like that day. Now everything seems somehow linked and railroaded in the way that by the time you finally get flying, your spells (in form of things coming from AP) and other stuff you used to get when dinging full level you have been doing all the content so much that it doesn’t feel fun anymore. So we basically play most of the expansion without full pontential of our character and tools (and not talking about gear here), no wonder it feels …mild.
That’s the problem, you skip all endgame and just do the casual stuff. Then complain that there is nothing to do. Only if you actually played the game…
We are living inside circles drawn by WoW devs thats why and this includes dailies, dailies and more dailies.
Players lost their freedom in an open world MMORPG. There are too many arbitrariness in game now and please lets just get rid of this “build a piece of item throughout the expansion” model such as Heart of Azeroth. It limits the gameplay. We used to just get our items from dungeons and raids and that was fine. Applying all in one technology to this game wasn’t a good decision in my opinion
This is what I do atm I’m playing hots with my best friend and he Livestreams it on twitch and I play Diablo 3 aswel and I am thinking of returning to Overwatch but I might reconsider because too much toxic and bad mannered ppl that tilt me I don’t preform well under pressure I have a relaxed disposition and when you get me out of my comfort zone I get tilted and preform worse.What I am trying to say it is true I play other games now cause I have gotten bored with wow until some engaging content comes you might make an argument that I haven’t completed content of the game but I can’t do it solo I need people to play with and I refuse to pug.
The heart of Azeroth is fine imo, it replaces talents not gear. It’s a way of giving us a choice of talents from what I can see of it so far at 112. I’m playing demonology, so I’m choosing haste and whatever improves my demons, no idea if that’s the ‘right’ choice, but at least it feels like I’m choosing talents lol.
I never did like end game much, but I’ve been having fun levelling this warlock. I bought bfa yesterday, so I can skip legion. I levelled to 110 in WoD. For those who haven’t played all the expansions, they’re doable solo, so we have a choice. If people have played none stop for years, they are likely to get bored of it and end game is about raiding which I don’t like, but I think I’ll get my money’s worth until then.
Wow isn’t particularly boring, but people get bored with most things if they do them often enough for long enough, I expect I will too.
I’ve joined one of the communities that were linked on here. They’re for more relaxed, laid back players and nervous newbies, maybe try one of those?
Im not playing alot at the moment…and Im fine with that!
Done all the current content (except the new raids), got exalted with everybody and nothing left to do now but level alts or work on professions.
Its not the end of the world if you take a break, either unsub or just dial back your play time. I dont think it means the game is dying though, just that you play less at certain times.
Hey I’m not trying to on purpose I’m only answering people’s post’s and it so happens they have off topic question and I do answer things on topic aswel but most of the questions people ask are off topic so what you gonna do also thank you I appreciate it now I got to return to paperwork accounting ain’t gonna complete itself .
Sacrificing someone for the Doomguard was great. Or when the death knight was just new. Invite a lowbie into your group duel them and use the old Hysteria on them (dealt damage to you but buffed your damage by 20%)
They’d die straight away xD
It is getting boring for you from your perspective. There’s lots to be done. You can become focused on being a trader or a raider or whatever. It’s a big set of worlds with lots of options.
I am still having fun and there’s lots I am aiming at.
The problem with WoW is people expect it not to eventually, after days logged and years playing, to suddenly change and not be boring. A lot of why classic is hyped is because it returns to the roots that were left behind in the pursuit of change to excite. Any game, even an MMO, will eventually get dull. That’s not Blizzards fault.
and I am thinking of returning to Overwatch but I might reconsider because too much toxic and bad mannered ppl that tilt me I don’t preform well under pressure I have a relaxed disposition and when you get me out of my comfort zone I get tilted and preform worse.What I am trying to say it is true I play other games now cause I have gotten bored with wow until some engaging content comes you might make an argument that I haven’t completed content of the game but I can’t do it solo I need people to play with and I refuse to pug.
