    The only people against any instanced pve content were ebayers and Uber guilds that wanted to control everything. As for heavy group required, you need a balance. Too much and people quit from frustration because they can’t make any progress without a group and getting groups is hard. Too...

    Shroud has even admitted that when he was younger, they used to use your first example when they played online because that was common for gamers to use a lot at the time. Dredging up shit you said 20 years ago as a kid is dumb

    I mean did they use back then, video toaster? Some kid could easily churn out better graphics on their desktop on the cheap if they didn’t need it to be high quality modern cg / Syfy level stuff The expensive part would be practical sets

    WoW2 is unlikely, unless you forced wow1 to shutdown. And dusting off old mmo mechanics isn’t a good idea. New World tried that and bled hundreds of thousands of players. All the “easy travel ruins the game” dopes who fail to realize the novelty of traveling every where slowly gets really old...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The RTS ship has sailed for now. Even from an esports perspective, team games are the "in" thing. Solo "duels" like you saw in Starcraft don't bring the views like they used to. I still think that if they did some looter-shooter quasi MMO with the Starcraft IP, that would be their best bet...

    Pretty much this. It's the sequence of middling or bad expansions that really drive the playerbase away in larger numbers. If Dragonflight ends up being dogshit, WoW numbers will crater and probably never recover.

    They picked cartoony, stylized graphics originally because it dates better than "realistic" styles. Playing Super Mario 20 years later vs. something like Metal Gear Solid, Mario is going to look "better" even though MGS had amazing graphics at the time

    Even so, medical care is still too fucking expensive in this country and lots of people get stuck with shitty high deductible plans through their employer Ever looked at an itemized bill from a hospital? Some will charge like $3 for a single Tylenol pill or $20 for a single pair of latex gloves.

    Where do you get Tracer from that? She had a wall phase move, which was the only Tracer-ish thing about her. Based on the video, seems clear this is a support hero since all the stuff they showcased was her healing or buffing her team.

    You still need a lot of base materials, but refining the t1 stuff to t2 will basically give you double the projected conversion, and t3 you might get a bonus 1/4 or 1/3rd or so. So for example, if you smelt enough iron to make 25 steel, you'll actually end up close to 50 steel when the bonus...

    While the dupes/exploits were a problem in the past, it is almost a non-issue now. Most of the dupe shit happened back when Voidbent was basically the "best" armor and before most of the BIS pvp perk armor/weapons even existed. The gold duped back then is also a non-issue - it would have long...

    Pitt mini-expansion is currently out. You basically visit the Whitesprings resort and do some quests to refill the energy to fly a Virtibird, then you can run some missions in The Pitt. Currently there are only 2 maps/missions set there, but they randomize some of the objectives. Depending on...

    Any rocket powered ejection system is going to be rough. For fighter jets, for example, if your limbs aren't in the proper position when it goes off, you can literally break your arms/legs because the force is so powerful. Even if you do it properly, your spine can get perma fucked up by the...

    They softened the leveling a bit - the level grind itself XP wise was reduced. The watermarking (now called Expertise) has also been changed so you can get caught up more quickly and also have the ability to target what type of item you want the GS boost on. Crafting is still a grind, though...

    That was just the resilient perk that was good (back then it worked on all damage instead of just crits)- the armor itself was mediocre outside that, at least by today's standards. That perk is still mostly mandatory for PVP to reduce burst damage via crits against you Resilent effectiveness...

    The cost was a byproduct of delivery vehicle capacity.

    I am guessing you are referring to Spriggans. They still hit like a freight train, but people in general are just better geared, so they die fast. They did nerf their gate damage slightly, though, so they don't 2 shot doors
