Ok so, like. I don’t get this. Why do you confusing devs continue to insist on capping chromie time, I’ll never know. But the least you can do, if you’re not going to allow chromie time to be accessed at the last 10 levels again, is PLEASE for the love of all that is holy, STOP capping older content mobs at level 30 when we’re at higher levels. Leave the level cap at 60. Done. Easy. All you have to do ffs.
. . . . . . .
Like, again, I just don’t get it. Do you even WANT my money? Because your behavior seems to imply that you actually really would like a chunk of my money every year, yet you continue to do things that really aren’t making me want to give you that money. Do you even realize how much replay value you would add to the game if you allowed people’s main characters to access older content without having to fight level 30 mobs? Do you realize how dreadfully boring that is, to fight level 30 mobs at max level, or whatever bracket of levels are fresh off the disabled chromie time train? Do you realize that it is so boring, that no one will want to do it at those levels? You must also realize that you have a cap on character limit so, eventually, people will run out of alts to even do that content with. You following so far?
If you’re following me so far, then think about this scenario, in which less people will unsub inbetween your timegated expansion content, and have an entire 15 years of content to not only play on their alts in chromie time? But also their main characters. 10 levels below max is still easy but you know what? It is WAY better than level 30. WAY better. It is way more playable. Way less inaccessible and boring.
So, please, at the very least, if you’re going to keep the chromie time cap at 10 levels below max, do NOT allow the game to scale back mob levels to 30. Scale back any gear you find, sure. Who gives a crap. But I guarantee you, hardly anyone wants to touch level 30 mobs at 70. It is boring. It has no challenge whatsoever. Even the odd number of people who enjoy god moding from time to time, obviously gets tired of it. Hence, time to time.
You have GOT to change this behavior. Come on, Blizzard? What happened to that “new philosophy” you all kept repeating like a broken record? Because it seems to me, from all of the ridiculously stupid restrictions you are still actively putting on this game, soar nerf, ridiculously long cooldowns on everything from engineering to class abilities, odd class design choices that literally no one agrees with you on, and a massive list of things you have already done wrong in this rocky expansion development so far, that it was all a bunch of BS.
Quit with this behavior. It hasn’t changed yet. And people are already kinda pissed off at you again before your “magnum opus” dragonfart expansion is even out.
