You’re reminding me of when I was play-testing a Marvel RPG my friend was developing. At one point Marvel suits came to see the game and the play.
I swear neither of them ever read a comic or played a game. They were referring to their checklists, writeups and the like. It was a very odd experience. It was just a job and a project and there was no soul in there from them.
Lol nah. I heard EverQuest is still releasing expansions. I know EQ2 is because I still get the emails every once in a while.
And both of those games don’t make a fraction of the money WoW does.
I wouldn’t say it’s impossible, but that would be a shocking decision, especially after all of the effort they put into DF.
On the other hand, it would probably be better for the IP vs. the slow decline into F2P that other MMOs have gone through.
EQ1 still pushes out expansions even though not one single EQLive server has more players than EQp1999, a classic EQ server not run by whoever owns EQ these days.
Darkpaw Games? It was Daybreak for a while idk. P99 is awesome tho.
I think it would be the perfect time to do it. It’s right on the anniversary. Imagine if they ended it at 13.0 or 16.0. Kinda lackluster?
Sure, if you say so.
My point was both games are either just as old or older, don’t make as much money, but are still releasing xpacs.
I’m sure WoW will have a last xpac one day I just don’t think it’ll be the next one or even the next few.
I don’t know where you work or how it works in the gaming industry but in my experience, if an employee quits and then comes back to work at the same company later they don’t have any seniority. They start over at the bottom of the “seniority totem pole” regardless of their position. Not saying that’s the case here but I’m willing to bet Metzen doesn’t have as much freedom and control and some would like to believe.
i dont want a new expansion… i want a 10.4 or a 10.5 or even a 10.6. feels like we are just going away from something so thick with content.
Yeah, they’ve basically abandoned pvp because Ion doesn’t like it, even took away one of my favorite BGs, Strands. It’s basically killed a lot of the fun I had with the game. I regret getting a 6 month sub right before the second patch, because I haven’t played much in 3 months, outside of a handful of Ulduar runs.
Those were cool imo. I’d love to see climbing areas out in the open world. Not as part of a quest but as part of the natural world, for getting over obstacles and such.
Regardless of what they do, I hope it includes playable Saberon. 
What’s Mythic+?
Assuming this isn’t sarcasm…its the infinitely scaling timed dungeon system that starts above heroic dungeon difficulty.
The same dungeon run over and over and the only thing that changes is zeroes in trash and boss health.
And the affixes…that change weekly and at certain difficulty thresholds.
They’ve already said the mount from Doomwalker will be an icey looking version of the Obsidan Worldbreaker
I thought icy Deathwing was for the 19th anniversary.
Anon nonesene go to X with that
Metzen is more the destroyer. His ego was his undoing
Tbh I don’t see them doing anything different. Will probably get AV anniversary event as usual.
Would like that. Or at least made relevant to an extent during an expansions 2-year run. Like have an invasion popup in one of the zones every now and then. Not just for an prelaunch event.
