Doing a Lot Out of Spite

Seems like their strategy backfired this week. Stocks market at record highs, Activision one of the only things that is down since the con.

According to SuperData, they’ve had 41% of players unscribe in the past three months. So more than 1/4 for sure.

Another thing I have noticed in last week or so is they open realms up to CRZ. They didn’t do that till 7.2 in Legion and I think 8.2 in BFA, here we are only 3 months into SL and they done it already.

Anyone notice that bump in the carpet at Lion’s Rest? There’s a horde artist at blizz trying to be cheeky.

Dont get me wrong. I like challenge. I dont want to get much better in SLs than I am now at 199ilvl on my druid because running around solo can still be just slightly fun, lol.
What irritates me is when the mechanix are so overused that they have no meaning anymore. You just assume that everything will do X. BOOORING. No creativity literally at all. Just make it all Slow-Root-Stun, boys. And we all know why we’re choosing those particular mechanix. ugh.

I guess coming from the group that decided instead of making a BOAT water walk…no brainer there…that theyd instead allow EVERY mount in the game to water walk, that homogeneity is pretty much to be expected.
And so the bugs I fight can slow me down in molasses…and so can everything else in the expansion. :roll_eyes:

Im sorry…but if they pull this crap again, Im not buying any future expansions.
This isnt fun. Its not creative. Its a pathetic joke.

This is nothing new… Haven’t you ever heard the phrase. “No Fun Police”? Blizzard has always done dumb things to ruin player convenience and/or fun since the beginning of time.

We are essentially guinea pigs in a perpetual test of negative reinforcement…

This classic episode of AVGN explains it perfectly, just replace the two words “stuff” and “key” with “content” and it fits wow perfectly:

Yep.

Foxes jump behind you

I really detest that too. I thought I might be the only one. I generally played ranged so I don’t have to turn much. But when something jumps behind me every three seconds, it makes it difficult.

just like how folks like you tried to flag my response as trolling. As for likes/dislikes. Don’t really care about that crap, as likes/dislikes used for worth is basically using Monopoly money at a Vegas Casino. :stuck_out_tongue:

The reality is that I’m here because there’s going to be that one person who might not know what the guy is doing and basically remind them that most of the forums are people crying that they can’t get Mythic level loot doing WQs, being able to use the flight whistle so they don’t have to walk 6 feet toward the closest FP in a location where 8 other flight points exist adjacently. That they want to be able to fly day 1 for the low low cost between 1-5k gold and that what limits you is your pocketbook and whether you can race to max level in less than a day.

Lastly, TC thinks that he can code mechanic heavy fights that usually require specific gimmicks. Though I wonder if they’ve ever tried to solo Mythic Kil’Jaden or think it’s dummy easy. Though I wonder if he’s able to solo normal Eonar?

What actually bothers me more than these cheese mechanics is the flaws in targeting and positioning that started up in BofA. They “improved” tab targeting so now it doesn’t work worth a damn.

I want to target the guy right in front of me (Tab key: the tree over there? That guy behind you? Those monsters 500 yards away? Your buddy’s pet?)

And the positioning thing drives me nuts, its particularly awful for tanks. I need to turn this guy away from the party. I move: he moves before I’m even done moving, so hes in the same position. I move: he moves before I’m even done moving, so he’s behind me. I move: he moves before I’m even done moving so he’s on top of me, still facing the party.

STAAHHHPPP

The amount of likes is quite telling of how this expansion is being received

When you brownnose so hard you start mistakenly thinking of yourself as a Blizzard employee LUL.

While I disagree with most of what you say, I would never flag someone I disagree with. You have the same right to your opinion as everyone else.

I wish I was one, they pay well and get access to mounts no longer available anymore. Though knowing your behavior, you think any form of counter argument means someone is a shill. You must be a blast at parties

And knowing your behavior from this, you must think you’re right about everything and a know-it-all.

Embarrassing.

All this makes you wonder if each addition to the WoW franchise can be categorized as either a expansion or a retraction.

because I never stated I was a know-it-all. I just gather intel from the forums, such as the whole mythic gear from WQs as folks complained about that heavily.

or how some think that you can easily make old content farmable when during BFA, when the devs admitted that retuning Hellfire Assault (first boss of Hellfire Citadel) was not as easy as it was.
