legion i think, 8.3

#

i think a bit in df

coarse bay
#

Like 18 month final patches

warm plinth
#

They said that each of the worldsoul expansions have their own team

round pendant
#

I think the game is just fundamentally designed in a way that it's never gonna feel good value to me

mighty valley
#

they've seen what happens when they take longer to release stuff though, and clearly the strat of releasing more basically unchanged wow content, more often is working for Numbers

round pendant
#

It's more that I don't get where the value is for those people

#

I have nothing against them

mighty valley
#

if you'd like to join me in bringing down the architects of global capitalism, i'd be down

round pendant
#

Other than when they get catered to like with housing slop and delveslop

#

and m+ gets ruined

daring marlin
round pendant
#

m+ is ruined by proxy of overall gameplay being ruined but it's only relevant to higher end content anyway, the slop content doesn't care if the gameplay is gutted

tribal wharf
#

i don't hate delves

#

rather not do them but i dont hate them

undone beacon
#

I think saying that delves and housing ruin M+ by proxy is such a reach ngl

coarse bay
# daring marlin

I genuinely think an 18 month patch while they actually prepared midnight properly wouldve been better than what theyre doing

round pendant
#

Thats not what I said Pash

can you really not understand that people enjoy building video game house

#

two different things

mighty valley
#

have you played midnight m+

undone beacon
round pendant
#

nah but I've followed class changes for classes I know, watched gameplay of high end PTR keys, read and listened to feedback by good players

#

I'm not giving them money for the honor of testing it just for them to ignore my feedback either

#

Tying beta access to preorder was a genius marketing move but a horrid game dev decision

tribal wharf
#

i think the fated keys for x.3 is good idea

#

just no 3 void emmisaries

#

yogi never forget undersuck

#

3 voids at start

#

never ever

round pendant
coarse bay
#

Is fated only endgame content? Im sure they couldve done something better than this prepatch into some sort of thing for a fated season

tribal wharf
#

i will never ev er forgive the developer that left that in there

coarse bay
#

Or prepatch shouldnt have shipped with all of these class changes

tribal wharf
#

and said, this is okay

coarse bay
#

And ui changes

tribal wharf
#

that was NOT cool

mighty valley
#

we're trading fated season for a faster expansion release. fated was to give a content drop with minimal investment to tide people over til expansion

round pendant
#

I'm just saying to see them actively harm or neglect the content I enjoy to instead put big effort and focus onto the other stuff is just annoying, especially when they ignore feedback on those other things for years

tribal wharf
#

why not faster WITH fated

#

for x.3

mighty valley
#

the stuff you don't like in the endgame content isn't due to neglect though, right

tribal wharf
#

cuz youare already giga powerd up by that point

mighty valley
#

the pruning etc was an active decision

coarse bay
#

Fwiw the housing aspect was handled by an entirely different team that they acquired specifically for housing

tribal wharf
#

to deal with some bs mechanic they throw

round pendant
coarse bay
#

Housing didnt pull any dev work or effort from end game content

jagged pier
#

Yer its amazing how many times ive had to tell that to ppl

#

They think for some reason its part of the expansion teams

tribal wharf
#

i mean

jagged pier
#

When its its own team

tribal wharf
#

isnt fated just oh this special monster is now glowing orange, and so he does fire damage

#

and hes in your face and in your way, and then he dies

round pendant
#

yknow

mighty valley
#

i think "ignored feedback" is also kind of a misguided thing to think, game developers see tons of feedback from all kinds of avenues that players don't see

round pendant
#

I think yogi has like a cutting-edge brain chip that directly implants an LLM into his brain and he's just perma hallucinating now

#

that's the only explanation

mighty valley
#

each player sees some comments they agree with and think "they're ignoring all this feedback"

tribal wharf
#

how is fated different from what i am thinking of

solid sun
#

Wow gets made for a lot of people

tribal wharf
#

im thinking of seasons whre its some dude shows up and fucks with your stuff mid key and you gotta deal with it

mighty valley
#

fated was an entire season with a new m+ pool, new affix, rotating through all the raids of the expansion, gear upgrades, etc

tribal wharf
#

at +10 (in terms of bfa key)

round pendant
mighty valley
#

you're thinking of seasonal affixes

tribal wharf
#

im thinking of a certain type of them

#

maybe fated is some +7 affix

solid sun
#

That’s not really true

#

They messed with affixes a few times

tribal wharf
#

i think in terms of +2 + 4 +7 and +10 afffixes

dusky canopy
#

That’s hot

solid sun
#

Added some, took some away, redid them

round pendant
#

also I don't believe that it matters that housing is a different team, they could hire more people to work on m+ for example and they don't. Blizzard still decides where to allocate resources and whether shit is even deserving of iteration in their eyes

daring marlin
#

I always thought it'd be cool of every season had a shared loot pool for all the dungeons to pull from so you don't have to spam a single dungeon for X drop til you wanna neck yourself

round pendant
#

but yes, housing didn't DIRECTLY harm m+ or raid

mighty valley
#

yeah, so they've looked at the stats and the feedback they get on m+, and have decided it doesn't need and/or isn't worth investing resources into large overhauls

#

that isn't necessarily "ignoring feedback" it's just coming to a different conclusion

undone beacon
# tribal wharf i think in terms of +2 + 4 +7 and +10 *afffixes*

Fated was the name for an entire season of the game, in SL the fated affix was Shrouded where some mobs were replaced with dreadlords that gave buffs on kills. There was no seasonal affix for DF's fated season as they had done away with seasonal affixes by that point.

solid sun
#

Yeah m+ focused gamers just don’t make up a large portion of the wow player base

undone beacon
#

Maybe you're conflating the shrouded affix with fated as a whole

tribal wharf
#

well, what im saying right,i feel like, it should be like, clock work

#

x.0 ??? affix +10s (bfa terms)

winter basin
#

who makes up a large portion of the wow player base then? Raiders?

round pendant
#

And they stay subbed for months

tribal wharf
#

x.1/2 is like, it changes the bosses or monsters damage

winter basin
#

Like there's how many million keys run/wk

solid sun
#

People who don’t do any content we would consider challenging at all

mighty valley
round pendant
#

Not everything is just based on % of players when it comes to it being millions of dollars

tribal wharf
#

and then x.3, there is back up units being called, repeat for y.0

#

I mean I'd personally aspire to make my product better regardless of how well it's doing

daring marlin
undone beacon
#

I mean its disingenuous for either side to make a claim that X or Y group makes/doesnt make money. We don't have those details, we're running off assumptions entirely

mighty valley
#

sorry, the shareholders in Yam, Inc disagree

toxic pewter
#

blizz realized that making wow into the sims is actually a much more intelligent plan to make more money.. the actual 'wow' we all remember and love is effectively going away

round pendant
#

I just love how it always boils down to

toxic pewter
#

soon over time 'wow' will go away

round pendant
#

"the game sucks and is going to suck just move on"

tribal wharf
#

thats not a phrase i would directly use

#

especially on its own

daring marlin
#

Blizzard is a company looking to maximize profits. Of course they'll aim to develop systems that grows the playerbase. Ergo housing, collectibles, etc...

tribal wharf
#

that's the phrase i use before i actually say fuck it im done

solid sun
#

I don’t think WoW sucks

mighty valley
#

idk why i get invested, there are obv parts of wow i don't think are great

#

i just think gamer understanding of how games are made is sorely lacking

solid sun
#

And I think when something is proven to suck they endeavor to fix it

mighty valley
#

and don't really enjoy any argument that boils down to "the players are fucking stupid" or "the developers are fucking stupid"

round pendant
#

I didn't call anybody stupid

coarse bay
#

I think housing shouldve been added years ago, and im glad they finally added. Completely separate from what i think about other aspects of the game

mighty valley
#

idk, it's the implication of "they pander to slop-eating hogs" right

tribal wharf
#

i think the biggest thing of all when it comes to player housing

#

as long as they arent making, like, you know, 1937 germany symbols

#

let them do whatever the hell they want

round pendant
#

I use strong wording so my point is invalid?

#

No they focus on content I don't like instead of content I do like and I have a problem with that

#

and they make the content I do like worse

#

idk how many times I gotta say it

coarse bay
#

Valid opinions

round pendant
#

It's annoying to see an announcement stream and be so incredibly whelmed

#

oh well

tribal wharf
#

we got like a million raid bosses and 10 million dungeon bosses at this point

mighty valley
#

just don't call it slop and i'll shut the fuck up forever lol

They’re teaming up with habitat for humanity. That’s pretty cool

"slop" didn't originate from "ai slop" though

coarse bay
#

Ya i guess slop is like a thing now

#

I dont think of it as ai slop outside of the memes

round pendant
#

AI slop is infinitely worse than all I'm talking about

mighty valley
#

yeah the base meaning is the same thing - "you cynically churned this out because you think we're hogs"

round pendant
#

I'm just trying to say the content we get in wow is very low effort cookie cutter pasted things with a pretty mount at the end

#

and the big set pieces like expacs have nothing engaging in the campaign (quests are awful, stories usually mid nowadays)

#

raids are good usually tho ngl

toxic pewter
#

any day now gonna get paid housing decor surprised it hasnt happened yet tbh

round pendant
#

even tho I hate raiding

coarse bay
mighty valley
#

i do kinda hate the story right now, even if it's a struggle to figure out when i thought it was overall good

coarse bay
#

Im not saying i agree btw just that i see where its coming from

toxic pewter
#

what they really need to do is create player made decor catalogue where people can buy and sell products using irl funds

#

raids and shit like that dont make blizz any money

toxic pewter
#

lol

round pendant
#

just replace 'slop' with 'uninspired' then

mighty valley
#

what if they introduced real ownership into the housing decor market... they could be represented by some kinda token. ideally not a fungible one

toxic pewter
#

yeah

round pendant
#

cause effort isn't really relevant cause I'm sure a decent amount of effort goes into every piece of content in wow

toxic pewter
#

i want to be a landlord

#

like that is the wow i want

round pendant
#

like delves clearly took time to make

#

the zones, objectives, unique mobs and rewards, etc

#

they're just bad

undone beacon
#

And thats a fine opinion to have, yeah

round pendant
#

it took 6 seasons for valorstones to be removed

undone beacon
#

I think the disconnect and argument boils down to (everyone in skyholds favorite word) semantics

coarse bay
round pendant
#

I wouldn't care if they made m+ worse for a season if it seemed they were actively trying to improve it and come up with new things

#

which tbf, they were changing it a decent amount in tww

#

resi keys were nice but then never iterated on

mighty valley
#

they are currently attempting to do that by redesigning all classes and adjusting the dungeons to match

round pendant
#

half the changes were designed to make raid "better"

#

m+ is actively griefed by them

mighty valley
#

the result appears to be that they've made m+ worse for a season and you're justifiably unsubbing lol

round pendant
#

and also I think the pruning is awful

coarse bay
#

I do wish they’d be more aggressive with changing things and trying things out, but blizzard is too big with too many restrictions maybe idk. I want them to try things with resi and not just make it and leave it

undone beacon
#

I wish they would use the PTR as an actual place for experimentation

round pendant
round pendant
#

god the game would become better in like 1 year

round pendant
#

Maybe I'm just overly cynical

coarse bay
#

Like it’s called test realm not practice m+ mode

round pendant
#

I shall leave to think about this more deeply

#

I still dunno how I'll gaslight myself into thinking wow outside of m+/raid is worth the money though

who cares just do SOMETHING with it

yeah and ptr should be free too

no sub required

idk why my takes are so contentious tbh

It all just boils down to me wanting the game to be gooder for everyone

you phrase them aggressively and i'm an irritating pedant lol

round pendant

That's fair

#

Maybe I shouldn't use the word slop

#

you're right

solid sun
#

Sometimes your messages don’t come across like you want the game to be better for everyone

round pendant
#

well in my criticism of the 'slop', I'm just saying they should make the content better for everybody so that I'll like it too

#

not that it shouldn't exist

mighty valley
#

some stuff is just probably never gonna be for you

#

like, if "undemanding repeatable solo experience" is the goal, is that something you even want in your life

round pendant
#

probably not tbf

mighty valley
#

delves look exactly like something that was commonly asked for by solo players in previous eras of wow

#

do they excite me? no but they were pretty directly asked for, loudly

round pendant
#

I was hoping they'd scale into something meaningfully challenging though

mighty valley
#

they probably are for the people who asked for them

round pendant
#

and ig you run into the issue where if you do make it scale the point that it's not trivial for me

#

You make those players feel like they have to do it too

if there's rewards/titles/chievements

yeah it's release torghast

I still think there's no excuse for questing to be so bad though

#

I'm hoping the midnight story is at least cool

#

not that I really care about story but, jesus

#

DF and TWW stories being so bland is insane to me

mighty valley
#

questing has also iterated towards sanding off all the interesting edges that made people mad lol

round pendant
#

yeah and now it's like

#

you just fly to npc, talk to them, fly elsewhere, click some glowing things, repeat

#

sometimes you kill a couple mobs

#

that are trivial

solid sun
#

Well tbf I think the delve bosses are challenging

#

Like the 1v1

#

Whatever it’s called

round pendant
#

they should bring that lemix heroic world thing to retail

#

but honestly if it's optional it'd just make the game slower and everyone who likes harder content just wants to get to raid/m+ anyway

solid sun
#

I think questing is one of those things where it’s been optimized to where it isn’t fun anymore

#

Or not fun in the same way

round pendant
#

It's my most boomer take but flying from the start was a mistake

solid sun
#

Vanilla wow whirlwind axe quest for warriors

round pendant
#

as in from the start of the expac, not like flying as a concept

solid sun
#

That kinda stuff wouldn’t work today because the whole adventure part of it would be too slow and piss people off

undone beacon
#

I think people who want that just go play classic tho lol

#

It’s a fundamentally different game at this point

round pendant
#

idk, I feel like if the story and questing was fun enough people would just enjoy the experience if it was a lot slower and engaging

#

but you'd have to time gate m+ and raids a lot more

solid sun
#

Yeah I don’t think so. Everytime someone I know levels in retail they wanna zoom as fast as possible. All gas no brakes

#

Myself included

#

And I’m considered a slow leveler because I watch the cinematics and stuff

#

And like do minor exploring and pick up toys

round pendant
#

Is that not because the questing sucks?

#

and you just want it to be over so you can do the fun stuff at max level

solid sun
#

It’s because they wanna do the max level stuff and level more characters to be ready

daring marlin
toxic pewter
#

the thing is once you experience the story once you want to go as fast as possible

mighty valley
#

people download in-game guides to get through classic leveling asap too

toxic pewter
#

like in diablo 2, story owned, but rushing was always a thing

round pendant
#

but ig it makes sense after you've levelled a few to 60

solid sun
#

I’ve never heard someone say “I wanna zoom through leveling fast because questing sucks”

#

Not to say no one thinks that

#

I just haven’t heard it

round pendant
#

but with expacs, it should be novel enough to be okay with it being slow the first time each time

mighty valley
#

it's just a natural problem that comes with a game like wow that has several games in it

coarse bay
mighty valley
#

vanilla was kind of magical because no one really thought of the concept of "end game" as they were playing their first character

But I like the story

cause each step is whatever, no thought just go waypoint and click thing

also rhino mentioned whirlwind axe

I miss the rpg-ness of getting some busted weapon early and it being giga

I dont think longer is really the fix here

when you feel like you've found something special

encouraged exploration

i unriuonically liked the airport more

I thought the raids thematically were super meh in DF. Like, big cave. Dark lab. Emerald Dream temple. Aberrus thematically was cool as an exploration of the black dragonflight's experiments but

#

Fighting the council boss and nymue in Amirdrassil always felt so contrived

i do think tww raids > df raids

i'll give it that

yah I can ackowledge that also

Is there a fun healer

toxic pewter

its a good question

coarse bay

What would make a healer fun to you lol

tribal wharf
#

what i think objectively makes a bad one is 2004 paladin healer style

coarse bay
#

Idk each healer has a flavor and style, everyone has a preference

tribal wharf
#

long cast bar that keesps getting bumped back

#

bad with priest i know

#

but you have asborb bubble and renew and fort and other shit

#

where paladin is that long cast but its cooldown and dps/utility cds

#

at least old hpal was, newer is kinda better

#

but again, i dont really care for playing the beacon style

#

if i had to choose one i would choose shaman or priest, or probably druid/monk

paladins in vanilla were never pressing the long cast time heal

lvl 34 we were

what i liked about 'classic' priest is pain suppression and fear ward

rest of priest racial was stupid without have it for everyone, which would be cumbersome

and they just have way cleaner heals overall, 2 entire trees dedicated to healing

I don't really know what I look for in a healer
