/v/ - Video Games

honestly, the servers died because of the megalians, not because BfA is bad

>>16342976

oh, and BfA is really bad

but the megalians are even worse

>>16342977

what are bfa and megaliens. what did all these do? how could a megalien affect the game?

>>16342977

>megaliens

This sounds like a 1990's childrens cartoon show like street sharks.

>Pandaren were China pandering

Not even close, try redoing a huge amount of artwork just for China. It's satisfying to see their failure after trying so hard to appeal to China. Of course, it's natural that it would have been ignored once China had their own game industry, since China WoW was a self-censored game originally designed to appeal to Western audiences. It's like us buying self-censored games from Japan.

I'm sick of China. I want my skeletons back in vidya god damnit.

>>16342985

>>16342980

He's talking about the insane feminist cult that until Park's ousting were controlling the South Korean state from the shadows.

Seriously, her aunt or mother or whatever was in the cult.

>>16342991

interesting "from the shadows"

>>16342992

Yes, it came out that Park was corrupt as fuck and involved her aunt/mom (I can't remember, this happened years ago now) in all her policy decision-making, who was known to be absolutely batshit insane. Then she was ousted, to South Korea's credit.

>>16342980

more on that, they're basically what >>16342991

said which currently is dominant force in the south korean government

one of the things that they do is that they send their women to play online games and spam and report EVERY SINGLE KOREAN MAN just for not being one of them until all of them stop having fun and quit the game for good

because they hate men… except black men who they love and want to get impregnated by((no kidding((

and they also don't hate one of the male higher-ups in their political structure, go figure

>>16342952

>WoW is now dead

Has been for years, 99% of the players are bots and chinese gold farmers.

>>16343001

>)) i thought those were asterisks for some reason; I must not be wide-awake yet

>>16343001

Do they really still have a say after Park and her pet hag were kicked out?

>>16343004

im not gookanon, thats just what I've read on /pol/

>>16342986

>try redoing a huge amount of artwork just for China

You never saw chinese wrath of the lich king did you?

>>16343001

Korea is a test-bed for zionist-american psyops. Expect the same shit to happen in the usa in the next 5 years.

>>16343008

I wouldn't be surprised. Park had to get elected somehow.

They also do the whole period blood and abortion fetishism thing. Real stand-up group of gals.

>>16343009

Can't say that I have, I only fucked around on Burning Crusade private servers with friends and never played the game when it was new. I've never touched an inch of Lich King content.

>>16343016

Chinas ancestor worship laws forbid the use of bones in media as a extreme form of gross profanity. So shit was extremely edited which took a lot of time. Caclysm then redid the old world and was a massive slog so after heavy editing for china, heavy editing for everyone pandaria was made as something safe to ship everywhere without creating a lot. Its why so many of pandarias models were recycled stuff with new things tacked on.

>>16343007

Not sure, but if a game like that existed I would never be bonely

>>16343042

Last census i saw put EU and US player numbers combined at 700k and falling. Boy did they stop announcing those sub numbers for a reason. I think FFXIV wavers between 350-800l based on content drops.

>>16342952

Yeah, they literally want a game where there paycheck directly translates into power and advantage, instead of effort and coordination. Just whip out the money and progress super fast and lord it over everyone else

Reminder that blizzard expressed support for megalians (The d.v.a orginisation), watch from 2158s if the timestamp doesnt work.Reminder that hillary, park and merkel attended the same university at one point in their lives

>World of Warcraft still exists

I never played it but I feel it should've died a long time ago already.

>>16343109

Its whales are the only thing keeping Blizzard in the black.

>Diablo is dead and makes no income

>Same for Starcraft

>Hearthstone is dying, devs jumped ship, its not even mentioned in shareholder calls anymore and surveys are being sent out to every whale market like brazil and korea asking if they would pay for a battlepass for it to try and make any money before its userbase collapses

>They straight up gave up on Heros of the Storm its so dead and making no money

>Overwatch tried to push the whopper button and go full esports, pushed their turbo casual lootbox buying audience away and shocker nobody gives a fuck about mario party: the shooter as an esport

>World of Warcraft is down to 700,000 players in the west or less but the over 50 obese shut in mutt has sunk so much time, money and sense of self worth by brand association into this shit that they literally will play till the day insuline cannot stave off the reaper anymore.

and they have nothing coming in the future but a diablo mobile game made by tencent for china that might be getting band because blizzards pro diversity virtue signalling is anti communist from chinas perspective and the ministry of culture might ban it.

If you see a Diablo Immortal PC port you know the company is in deep shit. Till then WoW has a sub and a cash shop and 700k is still 10.5 million dollars a month before cash shop horseshit.

>>16343118

I heard that SC2 got a semicomeback because of lack of RTS games. Is that true? Anyway i expect Diablo 2 remaster, WC4 and mobile games based on all their games before Blizzard folds.

>>16343133

I quit Hearthstone after playing for 2 years because it got too expensive and the game got too shallow. Now i play Eternal (played since beta with only 1 break) and some other card games. Used to play Shadowverse and TES legends for a short while but Eternal is better. Faeria is also fun.

>>16343133

No not remotely. After all the pros dropped it, it bombed in korea and the story ending with Kerrigan literally turning into a god angel made of fire to end of evangelion the bad guys and make every planet alive and good forever even the casual players dropped it.

They tried to make a paid battlepass thing but if bombed hard. The game is dead as dicks.

>spend all your time and money pandering to bugmen while abandoning your original base

>they either drop you or ban you outright

everytime

Friendly reminder Blizzard was founded by a kike and he jumped ship last year because he saw this coming. In fact I'd be willing to bet he planned it.

>>16343154

Lost Vikings and Warcraft 2 were legitimately good.

>>16342992

They had to invent a law to make forming shadow governments around a cult illegal. Pretty surreal stuff.

>video games bend over backwards for China again

When will it stop?

>>16343143

supreme commander forged alliance is still active.

old C&C games are pretty active still both c&c online and openra.

war3tft can get a 24 player room to play custom games.

ages of empires has active online as well

and some of these games are being worked on like some C&C modded version games which adds new factions units etc

>>16343159

I don't think a new law is going to stop people who never bother to follow them in the first place.

>>16343160

Never. China's business laws are predatory as fuck, but shareholders want the market of 1.4 billion bugmen so badly, they'll do anything to get it. It only gets worse from here.

Don't even respond to it.

>>16343164

It’s a virtue signaling farce, basically it says we hear the people so we made this law that everyone agrees on but won’t actually stop anything.

That one either.

>>16343181

But making fun of amerimutts who believe anything they read on a chan is hilarious

>Chan

Glow in the dark

>>16343155

WC3 were also good. SC2 is also a good game gameplay wise, a retarded story dont make the whole game bad. There are still many games left for Blizzard to make that i think will all do well

>Overwatch Royale. Just make it standalone and rework the heroes a bit so that they fit more into a BR

>Overwatch Mobile (look up Ace Force by Tencent to get an idea what it would play like)

>HotS mobile. Game seems like a game that would do well on mobile

>SC2 mobile (the fact that WC still have a big fanbase and the fact that an RTS dont take as much work as a MMORPG means that it would print mothat is based on Desert Strike (Art of War Red Tides is basically that)

>Diablo 4 (i am sure that will come out someday)

>WC4 (would print money as well)

>D2 remaster (there are no doubt that this will come out very soon compared of other games in the list)

How many of those do you think are likely?

And right before my reply goes through he exposes himself even more, nothing to see here folks. Just a regular anon here to educate us :^)

>>16343188

Warcraft 4, if it ever even gets made, would be complete fucking garbage filled with microtransactions.

>>16343179

It’s a feminist organization that wants to kill men dead, that has high ranking members in goverment positions who pass ludicrous laws to make life miserable for everyone else.

So that makes it a cult that runs the country.

>>16343097

>>16343187

>>16343191

Take your meds, seriously

>>16343194

Gonna need some proof of that my tinfoil hat wearing friend

>>16343193

99% sure that they will have cosmetic loot boxes like OW. I dont expect p2w however since not even current Blizzard would make a RTS p2w.

>>16343203

It doesn't matter if it's pay to win or not. The moment they put that shit in there the entire game stops being about playing matches to win or lose and starts being about logging in daily for some stupid currency to buy stupid shit. The actual game part becomes secondary.

>>16343188

I forgot WoW mobile. There are games like MT4 (called Era of Legends in the west) Crusaders of Light and some other WoW clones that earn shitton of money in China. I expect WoW mobile to come soonish as well.

>>16343179

>>16343198

A lot of the gookanon's posts are bullshit, but the part about a cult controlling the president was actually true. Here, have kikepedia article on it - that should be "tinfoil-free" enough for you

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_South_Korean_political_scandal

>>16343179

Holy shit your fucking sources are bad too,

>Ministry of Gender Equality and Family

has the Korean form of women as in women equality. So it’s actually about women only.

>Korea gaming law unconstitutional

The fuck are you talking about it was ruled constitutional in 2014. And people are still getting arrested if they mod their games

What kinda of fucking imbecile are you?

>>16343217

Not a single mention of a cult

>>16343218

여성 stems from the hanja 如 which means equal, so no it doesn't mean women but equal

No one's getting arrested and it was ruled unconstitutional. Would love to see some source to back up your bullshit

Great to see you drooling retards will believe anything on the internet and when provided with evidence that you're wrong, will just sperg out.

>>16343230

I certainly do get a kick out of WoWfags trying to tell people the game used to have a good community. WoW was THE game that made me start to hate online gaming because it was like wading through a sea of retards, children and posers who don't actually want to be there but pretend to care because it's the hip thing to do now.

>>16343217

oh sorry but yeah Choi was part of a cult but there's no le spooky female only cult controlling SKorea then or now

>>16343221

Maybe because the article is brief as fuck? Even then, it mentions:

>"Choi at that time claimed that the shamanic leader can channel communication to her dead mother. Choi Soon-sil is alleged for dictating or at the least influencing her decisions on everything from President Park's handbags to state affairs."

Here's further reading on it if you're interested:

http://askakorean.blogspot.com/2016/10/the-irrational-downfall-of-park-geun-hye.html

>>16343236

The only people who thought WoW was good were people who never played MMOs before.

>>16343243

Yes there was a cult involved but there is no le spooky female only feminist cult controlling SKorea then or now

>>16343246

I liked the UI and general controls but hated everything else. If I could play FFXI with WoW's controls and with a continuous overworld I think I'd be completely satisfied.

>>16343250

Yeah, as I said, a lot of what he said was bullshit, but the president did get controlled

>>16343258

So we are in agreement, sorry I didn't read your post right the first time.

>>16343221

>>16343221

That’s not the Hanja you retard the Hanja is 女性家族部. Which in the most literal fuckin term means “female gender family equality ministry”

Stop pulling shit out your ass.

Here’s the law that seemingly still exists in 2017

https://variety.com/2018/gaming/news/korean-overwatch-hackers-sentenced-1202794886/amp/

And here’s some people getting arrested. Now fuck off with your false information and lies.

>>16343257

The only reason FFXI had such a shitty UI was because it had to be playable on PS2 imo.

>>16343274

I really don't mind the UI in that game but the forced delay, the targetting and lack on any kind of advanced movement kills it for me.

>>16343266

It's called the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, look up the site.

Love how you can't refute that.

So you're fucking retarded, thanks for wasting my time. Filtered.

>>16343299

What’s to refute the meaning of words?

女 means women unless you’re retarded that’s what it mean.

>shutdown law set to expire

The original post said you needed to put your social security number if you wanted to play online the dumb fuck said no you didn’t and it was ruled unconstitutional when it was actually upheld.

You yourself just admitted that the law is still ongoing but I’m the retarded one the fuck are you smoking.

>he neglects to mention that said law carries over to mods and private servers

The hacks aren’t the only thing about the law you jackass it covers a variety of normal shit like mods too I didn’t think I needed to spell it for you but it’s clear you’re being disengious.

>>16343301

Ah jumping on vpns.

>>16343022

I knew about the Undead racial model edits and figured there had to be a ton of enemies and environment props which looked similar. I'm sure WotLK added even more "problematic" content for China.

Oh hey, right around the time competitive SC2 died. What a coincidence.

>>16343597

>>16343613

It was so obvious to me so i didn’t think about it.

Kinda like explaining the English word women, it’s so obvious that stopping to explain it just doesn’t register to a normal person.

Half of the thing he posts about is wrong, I only knew it because I have a gook friend not related from 8chan who hates Korea. The ministry of women being one of the more obvious lies to anyone who knows gook, chink, or jap.

The second would be the law being unconstitutional which I knew was a lie because of a recent video on mmorpg private server fiasco where people were arrested but then released after they paid a fine.

I just couldn’t find a video and was waiting for my korean friend to wake up. But it became clear that the anon i was arguing with was just goal post moving.

Before this thread I never knew that there was a Korea internet defense force. Great honouru to your ancestors, noble internet soldier.

>>16343714

There really isn't, at least not for Korea specifically. It's just /intl/ and /leftypol/ covering for their corporate masters like always.

>>16342988

east asians are really into cults. Chyna has a cult that even goes to other countries to spread their propaganda in addition to china sending spies to spread their propaganda. Japan has had some issues with cults but there's still a few crazy ones around.

>>16343258

That's true, but the cult was not feminist. It was some "talk to the dead" bullshit, the female cult leader got the hooks into the prime minister when she was very young and her father was still in power. They wrote her speeches, which is why so much of what she said sounded like complete nonsense, and made her wear ugly, cheap clothes they had her pay a fortune for.

The whole thing came to light when the cult leader tried to use the prime minister to get her daughter into some prestigious school for rich girls.

Still, pretty scary that such a batshit insane cunt and her puppet were in control of a country that could have easily led to war with China.

>>16343720

>Japan has had some issues with cults

Issues like making chemical and biological weapons and using them on a subway. After that Japan came down hard on cults to make sure nothing like that happens ever again.

Also, the crazy fuck responsible for the sarin attack was killed a few years ago finally.

>>16343689

Korean gaming was always shit. Even chinks at least made a few neat demakes for the NES and a bunch of RPGs. Korea has made fuckall in terms of games.

>>16343007

The world is a fuck, and everyone died. Hundreds of thousands of years afterward, a necromantic god has turned his eye toward earth however, and has used his necrojesus powers to resurrect the entire planet.

>>16342952 (OP)

What city even is that? It doesn't look like Orgrimmar or Stormwind to me. All the other cities are usually ghost towns, even when the game is popular.

Also

>Blood Elves to appeal to korea

Blood elves appealed to a hell of a lot more than just Korea. They appealed to every underage faggot who wanted an attractive horde character.

<It's actually called the ministry of family and gender equality

No sources given, but a single google search shows that the law is still in effect

>>16342952

>Blood Elves to appeal to korea

Huh? Blood elves were to give the horde a pretty race.

>>16343597

If it's like Japanese, it doesn't actually mean "woman", it means "female human".

>>16344426

What exactly is the difference?

>>16344446

There is no difference.

女 is female

人 is human

Literally it means female human

Together as 女人 it means women.

Kinda like how faggot can mean different things

>>16344283

Yeah, otherwise the asian servers would be all alliance in a binary faction set up for pvp. Do you see the problem there?

>>16344446

It doesn't necessarily imply maturity.

一個十歲的女孩

a 10 year old girl

If you insist that 女 must always be translated as "woman", then it would be "10 year old woman child", which makes no sense in English. Women are mature, not children. Ergo, clearly 女 does not mean woman. A newborn baby could be described as 女.

However, 女　cannot be used to apply to non-human animals. Thus, the words is really nothing like any singular word in English semantically.

>>16343167

>it doesn't count if blizz doesn't make it

wew

>>16343769

just goes to show you shouldn't believe every shitpost you see. ALthough I have to give the gook some credit, working bits that were actually true into the story made him look a lot more convincing than usual bullshit

>>16344470

>>16344510

Just let this remind you and anyone else reading that the whole "it needs millions of subscrubers ;DD" meme is manufactured and forced to trick dumbasses into overinvesting. FFXI had barely 500k subscribers at its peak and it made more money than FF7.

>>16344533

Gook never said that Park was megalia controlled only that she was corrupt and taking orders from a female cult leader that indoctrinated her in her youth.

>>16344576

Yeah, looking back through screencaps, he only said that Megalians were just outrageously insane Park supporters. I can dump my folder, though it's a bit unorganized, and there are some duplicates.

>>16344589

go ahead i can use a laugh.

>>16343257

even with cutscenes everywhere, duty finder existing, and your character being the main character as opposed to everybody else playing the game?

>>16344655

Is this the 5th time this week someone misread FFXI as FFXIV in one of my posts or did they actually add a duty finder to the game? I haven't played it since 05.

>>16344660

yea they did, i just started last month and i enjoy it immensely.

>>16344660

quick warning though duty finder is a bitch if you're playing dps, i dont about healers but on average it can take up to 18 mins to find a party if you're dps. Tank is 5 minutes maximum.

>>16343042

>2007

>>16344713

Want to know why i believe Gook Anon? Its very simple because im actually belong to one of his country's enemies. You have to understand a very simple fact when two countries hate each other it leads to a bombardment of propaganda insulting each other.

They will do anything possible to tear each other apart dumb rumors, mud slinging, old historical crimes etc. For a long time i thought Gook was just some Chink or Jap psy op shit but he knew certain news just a few days before it hit the fan. He dispelled certain rumors while confirming others. Its the kind of knowledge that only a person that lives there can know.

Then theres his irrational fear of megalia, i laugh but thats the type of hate only a person who lives there can truly manifest.

Do i believe everything gook says? No probably only 70% but that's a pretty damn good number when i compare him to certain other mass media, he might as well be Nostradamus.

Maybe even let me control them from an overhead perspective and add town building, perhaps even let me fight other, opposing armies of AI controlled dudes too. Why hasn't anyone done something like that yet?

>>16343001

There were groups reporting people on US servers at start of expansion, and Blizz automates bans. People stopped using chat, mostly using discord I imagine; but that massively fractures the community until there isn't one at all.

FFXIV actually did this same thing to themselves having chat broken into hidden player made groups you have to jump through hoops to know about or join. All while ignoring that the regular chat was 99% gold selling spam.

I'm not subbed but fuck if I can find another place with women late 20s to 30s with a hobby outside of reality tv and literal whoring.

>>16344675

that's a problem with you, not the game.

>>16345415

As soon as they introduced the autoban system, ppl abused the fuck out of it and basically banned anyone who talked on any public chat.

>>16345774

Yeah, people got banned in the middle of BGs because the opposing team mass-reported some of them. The entire system is shit, which isn't surprising since Actiblizz has been shit since 2004.

>>16342976

That's was FFXIV not WoW, blizzard did this all on their own due to this expansion being a gigantic fucking mess, hell they're so desperate to keep what little players they have left they even put the new races behind month long rep grinds.

>>16343167

Age of Empires 2 fulfills all of those criteria, though most people don't play with the "modern engine" since it's worse than the community maintened original. It also has an active competitive scene with lots of tournaments each year. One of them starts tomorrow.

No you opinion isn't "unpopular" is antipopular.

>>16345908

Nigger. It's not about money at all. They had a talent, they had a vision and they made a mark on pop culture and gaming for a long time. They could have instead gone to another large company and worked programming and had a guaranteed paycheck and made more money. A lot of devs do because gaming market is volatile. They did it because they were young, they can take a hit finincially and bounce back. They want to reach their "dreams" like all kids do. Some just are lucky, some have talent.

Staats made wow what it is and got shafted once blizz decided they wanted to cancel that project. Like it or not they had talent. Bungie's original plants for halo and how it evolved for what it is today, all the effort and mathematics that go into graphics processing. It is a lot of work for a product that isn't guaranteed sucess. They are now successful by virtue of their names and now all the (((investors))) that poured in like Kotick and Probst (the former CEO of fucking CLOROX).

And that's why this is completely fucking wrong. It's retarded how you can think that, I made much more money waiting tables before I got my degree. I put years of work into my career before I even started making the same and eventually more money. I do it because I like it and I enjoy myself more. Just like these guys did.

blizzard saw a feminist organization (remember, feminism is "good" to normalfags) using their copyright in what they felt was a positive way, and decided to highlight it

Everyone plays a menial in a mass underground dungeon network. Pretty standard MMO play except healing is rare and most spells used for it work dual purpose as damage spells on living things, so healers can be dps.

You start on the surface levels of the dungeon and have to fend off adventurers and the odd animal that wander in, sometimes going to the surface for quests. Over time you get stronger and evolve into better skeletons, moving down in the dungeon to deal with stronger adventurers. The effective end game is becoming the boss of the dungeon at the bottom in a reverse boss fight with some legendary heroes.

Mechanically keep things as normal but with more a focus on skeleton exclusive abilities, healing from unholy magic, being resistant to most weapons, being able to detach bones, etc. The classes could be based on what bone related skills you want. So a skeleton looking to be a hard boy with all the calcium would be the tank, being more resistant to attacks and evolving into bigger harder to kill things. Meanwhile skeletons who regularly use their head to scout things would be the rogues, falling apart with better control so at first you might be able to have a ranged attack by letting your arm crawl away but then later you can fall apart and become a living trap in a bunch of different places. Then unholy mages are the healers/dps with a subclass of necromancy to give buffs and create temporary zombies.

you start as just a skull and instead of gear you collect more and better bones to improve your skeleton

at 75% of max level you unlock the ability to completely customize your boner (think spore) The game would have a highly intricate physics system, so the way you build the boneman would actually matter too. Meta would eventually start to look like those robot battles where there are specific highly effective bone builds to counter other players

Anyone willing is allowed to take this idea and make the game but they have to sufficiently credit "intelligent and ambitious 8chan anon" for the original otherwise I will sue.

Yea that's what I'm saying, wow was the beginning of the end of blizz because of that and other things. If you want to nitpick meeting-stones as an attempt at being creative that's about the lowest fruit to pick. They didn't work no one ever used them and in the end they became free warlocks. Staats released a book a few months ago about the development of warcraft, every game gets interesting things gutted for the sake of balance or getting the product on the shelf.

Ha ha ha really? Oh boy. Now I want to know how that will affect Classic servers, as gearing up for PvP is also done through PvE in Classic. To be more specific, there are PvP vendors in Classic, but the grind for PvP gear is much, much worse than the raiding grind. As the only people I remember reaching Marshal/Warlord rank could only do it by account sharing and doing PvP almost all day, every day. And raiding gear still outperforms PvP gear in almost every way lol.

>>16349526

>>16351239

What happened to them releasing classic servers? I was waiting for that inevitable fuckup to be the final nail in their coffin but I haven't heard anything about it for a long time

There's a private server that allowed people to build custom classes, another server has permadeaths.

It's not that wow, as in wow sucks is that Biolzard has zero talent. The people who made the company create are long gone.Ultima online and EQ is still kicking around.

If blizzard had talent they would be trying new ideas such as custom classes.

>being this retarded

Are you aware of what transliteration is?

There is no chink on the planet ever named Lao Tzu. There was a chink named 老子 whose name was transliterated as Lao Tzu, but the 'l' is not a direct equivalent. Their 'l' sounds different to the English 'l' as the back of the tongue is higher up, closer to the roof of the mouth, when pronouncing it.

Dumbass.

>>16351743

>Their 'l' sounds different to the English 'l' as the back of the tongue is higher up

<Implying English only uses one out of multiple variants of "L" e.g. RP

>>16351756

You're confusing "Asians" with people on the Japanese archipelago.

>>16351762

Regardless, the common chink 'l' sound is closer to a mixture of an 'l' and an 'r' than any of the English 'l' sounds.

>>16351726

>>16351743

>>16351756

>>16351762

>>16351764

Chinks can pronounce 'L' but the best way to describe it is that it's more of a "soft L" if that makes sense, but its not quite an "r" sound either.

wow or not, the talent was already gone and the industry shifting, any other game would've been equally shit and getting worse

>If you want to nitpick meeting-stones as an attempt at being creative that's about the lowest fruit to pick.

what's there to nitpick? they're are the perfect example how blizz always misses what players want/need even if it would make them more money easily. OF FUCKING COURSE no one used them considering how they were designed by people that don't even fucking play the game or know how the community interacts, so I don't know that point you're trying to make. but here's a fun fact: that's the job of a dev, and a good one knows how to utilize that.

you know what people did instead? installed an addon called call to arms. it was flawed due to the technical limitations like using chat channels, but worked well enough for the most part that blizz could pick it up and improve on it. instead they gutted the functionality and it took them TEN FUCKING YEARS to implement the exact same shit in form of the group finder.

same with the transmog system when other games already had perfectly fine solutions that were miles ahead (only took them what, 1-2 years to catch up and end up with the exact same system?) or housing which is such a piss easy system to implement that whales go nuts over instead we end up with shit like garrisons.

point is all blizz could ever copy someone else, and they can't even do that anymore (or couldn't for over a decade).

>>16351864

>wow or not, the talent was already gone and the industry shifting, any other game would've been equally shit and getting worse

I enjoyed wc3 mainly because of the custom maps, those people left come sc2 like how they refused to make dota 2 and instead said "oh just make dota for our upcoming game sc2!"

>what's there to nitpick?

The dumbest fucking sytem to nitpick. I would queue up in those things for my entire playday just to see if they would work. I talked to other players and made friends with people who could get groups so I never had to use an addon or anything. I know they added a world lfg channel and removed it a few weeks later due to shitposting.

>trannysmog

I quit before all that. Current players fallate that shit so hard, when you have so many armor pieces leave it to the players to piece them together. I have no Idea how it affected future choices, new tiers aren't exciting at all. maybe because of this.

>point is all blizz could ever copy someone else

Yea I agree. This dead horse has been beaten.

>>16351570

The high rank pvp weapons and armor were actually better than most BWL drops, the problem being that with the way the rank system worked only like a dozen people could ever have those weapons so nobody bothered. It was a million times more easy to grind Ony for a marginally worse weapon.

>>16352245

remember it's the same company that missed the whole moba train with dota and is extremely butthurt about it (to the point it afterwards made modding a stillbirth). the only thing remotely working out was hearthstone, but I'd argue even that was more luck than anything since the market was more than ripe for a "proper" digital cardgame (proper in regards to polish and easy entry, the alternative was either jank or outright shit like mtgo)

>The dumbest fucking sytem to nitpick.

it was an example, and I think you repressed how fucking retarded their whole implementations were (they tried to "fix" several times for months till they settled with portstones). I was a tank in good standing so never had to use it either, but not everybody is that lucky or wants to put in the effort.

- have to travel across the whole fucking world just to queue for that single instance (and that was during vanilla, hope you're ready waiting for the airship and watch your char flying around)

- single stone for a dungeon when stuff like uldaman/brd/ubrs can cover a double digit levelrange, good luck finding 4 others that coincidentally want to do the exact same thing, on top of queuing at that specific stone during your specific timeframe. and that shit was fucking capped for some retarded reason. outleveled the dungeon or want help from max player? ahahhahahhahaha fuck you.

I'm not even sure if you could group for more than one and could group in the meantime, since it grouped you automatically.

It's like taking your average already retarded matchmaking system, lobotomize it and then act surprised when no one uses because it's completely pointless.

it's on the level of 2.1 "oh, people use voicechat? why not put it in the game?" when everybody keeps that shit in a separate program for a fucking reason and has for years at that point.

>I know they added a world lfg channel and removed it a few weeks later due to shitposting.

the main issue is chat is the last common denominator people can coordinate in game before they have to go outside the game, ofc you'll end up with people that abuse it. the addon just scraped "lfg X", put it in a list and propagated that in it's own channel so you didn't have to sit in the city the whole time and could to other shit (ofc people put in stupid shit too, but anybody unable to skip a line with chuck norris jokes has bigger problems). you could even completely ignore chat and put it in the addon directly.

it was smart and all blizz had to do was implement it officially because it only covered the people that knew about it and had it installed, but nope…

>Current players fallate that shit so hard, when you have so many armor pieces leave it to the players to piece them together. I have no Idea how it affected future choices, new tiers aren't exciting at all. maybe because of this.

most people want a cool/cute looking char, even when they don't end up in slutmog to erp in goldshire. heck people called leveling stuff skittles armor for a reasons. long before any wardrobe system armors were already hit or miss, remember the aq stuff? now imagine a system where people have to store all the cool looking shit when they have been complained about space for years at that point (justified or not). and it's not even a fucking f2p game that sells storage space for money so you could at least see why they impemlented it that way (to jew more money out of players). meanwhile lotro and rift had perfectly working systems (which they even improved upon).

it's the same as housing, personally I don't give a fuck about it but some people go in balls deep. you already have all those assets in the game anyway, so why not give people their own space to fill it with whatever shit they want? it's almost completely detached from other systems, so there is close to zero impact on the technical side (database, instances etc). meaning cost/benefit is fucking astronomical. now add to that you can easily put all that stuff you already have as rewards for doing other shit, giving people another carrot to chase (=more and longer subscription money) for the simply cost of implementing private instances.

>>16351570

>As the only people I remember reaching Marshal/Warlord rank could only do it by account sharing and doing PvP almost all day, every day.

the worst part of the system was that you had to keep pvping in relation to the rest of your faction. the people on my server were chill enough about it and even rotated in activity so people could get WL more easily, meanwhile alliance had 3 retarded brothers that hogged that spot for months simply because they could nolife that shit.

Because they take tons of time and resources to put out. It's why Blizzard sabotaged EQ to be raid centric in the first place so they could establish a standard that they knew very few other companies could compete with. There's a reason the only themepark MMO to even get close to WoW after all these years was from squeenix. They're the only other company with deep enough pockets.

Tons of people, at least before lootyshooties came out, would play MMOs more as full 3d Diablo than an actual MMO. Blizzard actually knew this and was afraid Diablo 3 would hurt WoWs subs which is why they gave it away for free with yearly subscriptions for a while.

>>16358843

Most positive perceptions of MMO's coming from the social experience rather than the game play is the answer. How you feel about jumping through a very high amount of grinding hoops to participate in a glorified chat room is up to you, but there's the answer.
