    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    I was trying to 'warn' by buddy about this. The way they are using Classic is only going to work once or twice more. People will play WOTLK Classic because that's ultimately what they wanted all along anyway. Who the fuck is going to play Cataclysm Classic? They could treat it like LoY and merge...

    Titan killed Blizzard. I can't wait for the tell all story. It'll be the last great thing to come out of Blizzard.

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    Their MO was always to steal other ideas from games and "Blizzardify" them. The problem is that once they started starving out the MMO market, there were no new MMOs for them to steal ideas from. After that, they started stealing from shit like D3 and, with Shadowlands, indie roguelikes.

    The casuals quit when gear access is as easy as it's ever been, but thrived when they were basically denied access to the gear. This is exactly the point. When there is content unavailable to you, the horizons of the game world seem to stretch out forever. You "could" progress, but that would...

    They are conflated in an mmo. The best gear should required you to interact with the community. Most of the problems Blizzard tries to solve with the game/policy are 'community' problems that should be handled by guilds / the community.

    You know shit is dire when people think badges are still a good solution. FF14 already has that shit and you can go play the single player MMO if you want most of what you are talking about. There is a reason we called them welfare epics. WoW and most mmos suck because they neglected what was...

    Pretty sure you'd need to do ng+ (for zero xp) for another job if you bought the skip. That or roll an alt. The skip marks the entire questline as complete from what I know.

    It's not about a solo game, I just don't want to do autistic GDQ bullshit speedruns of dungeons. I quit when raiding required to you farm the shit out of M+ to gear. That, and Mythic raiding has gone from 'hard but accessible' to 'fuck you' difficulty so they can have a week of RWF. I play...

    What is there to do in 9.1 if you don't raid/M+? This is an honest question. After the first week of running around killing Korthia rares, it's basically just doing your 3 renown and waiting until the next weeks reset.

    I mean, this is real: Going off of The first Kul'tirans show up at 240/344 as male druids, followed by female druids. Main reason being druids get race specific forms. The next male is 302/344, warrior of course. Then the next female is 328/344 (shaman, so again unique totems) and then...

    It's should be like fable and the higher your crafting jobs are, the fatter you are. That can be balanced by combat jobs making you thin again. WoW is just retarded. Nobody who is fat in real life wants to be fat in a fantasy game too. Additionally, anyone who wants to make a fat / short...

    What, you didn't subscribe to Rapists Digest to keep apprised of these things? Frankly, I did make rape jokes during the period in question.

    Prior to Hannibal Buress, Cosby was seen as an old dad figure who would scold black comedians. I don't know what kind of purple haired circles you guys ran with, but it was certainly not even on any normal person's radar. Certainly not like MJ was 'always' known to be a pedo, etc. Maybe Furor...

    It was always my contention that the old school MMO gamers were all closet lorefags. They were drawn to the idea of an online world full of other people, not gameplay systems. WoW, up until WotLK, had the draw of people coming from WC3/TFT who wanted to see the storyline resolved. It was cool...

    PLEX and krono are way more interesting systems since they can actually be held and traded around as items in game. They also give you an inflation resistant vehicle to invest your in-game currency in. WoW tokens, on the other hand, are almost exactly like buying gold directly from Blizzard.

    Maybe it's because I mained rogue, but modern WoW is one of the less offensive when it comes to 'needless filler abilities'.

    I leveled all the way up to Heavensward to unlock DRK when Shadowbringers came out, then boosted the DRK and bought the story skip for Shadowbringers. Is it worth it for me to go back and NG+ Heavensward/Stormbringer, even though they don't give xp?
