This is going to sound weird, and while I do empathize with the frustration thatâs being expressed in this thread, this conversation still warms the cockles of my black little heart.
Why? Because for too long there was very little distinction between playing on a PvE realm and playing on a PvP realm. We had inadvertently created a situation where there was little risk when leveling in the world on a PvP realm. The experiences were, for all practical purposes, virtually identical, but that wasnât what we had in mind.
Life on a PvP realm can be nasty, brutish and short. Justice is in very short supply. Every action you take in the world carries with it an added level of risk, from questing, to hunting down profession materials, to simply traveling from place to place. You can be attacked at any time, sometimes by an overwhelming force. Of course, the shoe can also be on the other foot, and youâll be able to turn the tables on your attacker, or find clever ways to delay them or escape from them. Some will become roaming slayers, seeking out enemies to destroy.
In short, the experience on a PvP server is different. We want it to be different, and that includes everything from honorable conflict on the field of battle to horribly despicable ganking. Itâs all part of the fabric that makes a PvP server what it is .
Me thinks he just needs to leave PvP alone and go where his strengths lie⌠Fighting pre-programmed 100% predictable and easy content and leave the reactionary quick thinking to those people who enjoy it
1,000,000,000% shade to people who complain about PvP being too hard and complaining about it and saying âBUT EVERYBODY SHOULD PVE BECAUSE WOW IS A FREAKING PVE GAME!!!â
Thats what happened in Warlords. Legion. And in BFA âbut wow;s a pve game!â and pvp has suffered HEAVILY since
Itâs really odd when folks say this kind of stuff. Like dude, do you not want money going toward Blizzard and therefore content to be created? Why would you want them to stop providing content to customers just because you donât dabble in it.
Ironically this thread from a seemingly constructive player asking if helping others learn the game is elistist has devolved into an elitest argument about which game type is best.
