And blizzard said there was never going to be any classic servers in 2016, remember #Youthinkyoudobutyoudont ? Yet here we are. Funny how wind canât change direction pretty quick and thereâs no way to predict the future. Youâre absolutely delusional if you think otherwise.
Say the guy who improvised himself an armchair medium right before writing this very line.
This is but your personal opinion of us. I guarantee some people here think youâre annoying for one or another reason.
Status quo: /ËstÄdÉs ËkwĹ/
noun
the existing state of affairs, especially regarding social or political issues.
âthey have a vested interest in maintaining the status quoâ
Not adding RDF in WoW is status quo. If you fail to get an accurate grasp on some concept, a quick googling will save you the embarassement.
Iâve literally mentioned Iâd play regardless. Iâm getting tired of having to burn calories on word because you canât read.
They never said that. Thatâs your personal interpretation of what they said.
Medium: âan individual held to be a channel of communication between the earthly world and a world of spirits.â In that case, referring to your sell-proclaimed ability to predict the future. And you didnât answer my point.
Because you think you affect these people more than they affect you?
Wasnât it clear enough that i meant âThe absence of RDF in WoWâ, which is what this thread is about. This is the status quo. You brought the part of about the âothers MMOsâ in your own mind and youâre putting words in my mouth.
Voicing discontent is how we get thing to change. Weâre not stopping. Get used to it.
As for the lasting part, you said âThatâs Blizzardâs position as well!â right after âYou can literally go play one of the MANY OTHER GAMES that have the feature youâre looking for.â is what i meant, not the latest part âTheyâre leaving this space available for players who dislike modern MMOs.â
No companies will tell their customers to go away. Certainty not the majority of them.
doesnât mean what you think it means. Particularly the use of improvised.
I canât affect them at all. I donât have Brianâs ear. Neither do they fortunately!
The status quo in the microcosm of WoW MMOs is also RDF. The only place the absence is the status quo is in Classic, and thatâs literally by design. See my Brian quote.
False cognate. I do have the excuse of speaking three language and english is not my first. Whatâs yours?
You originally replied to my comment, and the context in which that word was used. the existing state of affairs of RDF not being added to wow.. I never brought other MMO into my point. They are therefore irrelevant in this argument. Thatâs another topic entierly. Avoid all this âgaslightingâ as you self-admitted to thoroughly despise just to avoid admitting you didnât have an accurate definition of what âStatus quoâ meant.
Thatâs ONE other game from the same company from which they cash-in the same subscription. Please.
Uhhh, I didnât make a mistake? I donât need an excuse? Just pointed out that what you wrote didnât make sense.
I legitimately think youâre misusing âstatus quoâ, which is making more sense now that youâve mentioned . WoW hasnât had RDF, yes, but thatâs hardly because itâs âjust how it isâ, which is something youâd refer to as status quo. Itâs because itâs designed to promote social gameplay, and RDF is antithetical to that, just as they said in the video I linked.
âStatus quoâ makes sense when referring to MMOs as a whole, but doesnât make sense when referring to RDF in Classic.
Itâs both Shadowlands and Dragonflight? Either way itâs a little pedantic of you to act like their position isnât âClassic isnât the place to play with RDF, other games areâ when they only promote the alternative they own and stand to benefit from.
The point is very very abundantly clear.
Well man, thatâs true! This is pretty low stakes. Iâm just glad Blizzard share my perspective here.
It really does feel like a vocal minority keeps blowing up the forums over this issue. Nobody in game is even talking about it everybody is too busy playing.
Youâve show at several times lacking grasp on the concept of âstatus quoâ and âmain character syndromeâ, despite both being commonly used in your main language.
That is your personal and subjective opinion of RDF. Donât mix your anecdotal experience and own points of views with a neutral and objective definition as âstatus quoâ. Iâve made plenty of friends during the years even using RDF because Iâve enjoyed playing with these people regardless, and the other way around not using RDF was also true. Your perception of RDF is far from factual, absolute, or universal and you should stop acting like it is.
Iâve said plenty of times how status quo is defined, and it which context it was meant to be used in my argument. Trying to applying to context I didnât meant to is putting words in my mouth. Just donât. If you meant to start a separate branch of the argument, Iâm not interested in partaking in it.
Thatâs one game. SL will cease to exist to become DF. Iâm also not going back to play retail because they have one feature Iâd like and not enjoying the rest. That would be literally stupid. You, of all people, would self-admittedly would leave because of that single change of adding RDF, should understand that.
You said:
I just replied âWhat is it you say? âNo skin off my bones!ââ to say no i donât lol?
RDF isnât what kills socializing, most people do dungeons because they want to kill things, not talk about their feelings to some random stranger on the internet.
You did. You depicted me as having myself a âmain character syndromeâ because I want something that other people want. I depicted whoever I reply to because he think his opinion his worth more than other people for the sole reason of being his. The fact that i want RDF doesnât discard the opinions of other people automatically who doesnât because âTheyâre not WoW players like ME lolâ. And you liked that guy comment. Clearly, this is not worth wasting any more time explaining this to you if you canât get the difference.
Still an opinion, that hasnât been experienced by everyone, as many people on the forum included myself will tell.
Literally stating an objective, observable fact lmao.
See reply on anecdotal evidence that youâve been trying to pass as actual evidence.
Thatâs your worst take by far lmao. I literally stamped a five word definition in your face and youâre still copium and will keep moving the goalposts to avoid admitting youâre wrong. Gotta say, Itâs been fun, but I do have some other things to spend my time on rather than some ill-fated rando who just want to be right regardless that youâve been shown to be incorrect and will change any argument into some sterile debate because, obviously, debate doesnât interest you the slightest. Youâre just another stubborn, pseudo-intellectual forum-dweller who want to be right because you crave validation so much.
Only in WoW do people try to claim that RDF kills socializing.
Every other major MMO has a RDF system, none of the players that play them say it kills socializing.
Having played, wow, FFXIV, swtor, GW2, I have seen 1 clear fact. 99.9999% of socializing happens outside of dungeons in MMOs.
Pretty much every time someone says âno offenseâ, offense was intended, the person saying it just wants to try to pre-emptively avoid being called a jerk.
