Maybe not substitute as much as placing a band-aid on a broken bone set up. The issue is if you try to change players, you get responses like:
I can treat others how I want
you are not the boss of me
why should I change for them
etc.
The thing is the ones that do these responses also tend to be the ones against making the game more accessible or come out against QoL features for those of a less abled nature. It does not occur to them that such is being asked for because of them and their ilk.
The core issue is, and will always be, the players, but we canât fix the core issue unless/until people WANT to change.
Really? ESO online is a MMO, and it caters heavily to the solo player.
Love how the meaning of MMO is used so wrong by so many. MMO does not, and never will mean Massively Multiplayer Online Grouped Content Only! If it were the, the classification of the game, and the meaning of MMO would have to change, and it would have to apply to the new acronym of MMOGCO!
They are if they want to get things done. They might be free to kick or free to leave, but eventually if the latter they will have to bite the bullet and group with others.
If the only way to get something done, like class campaign, is in group content then you have to choose if you want to complete that or not under the current system, most would LIKE TO COMPLETE SUCH.
I am surprised no one thought of this before: If it is for class/covenant story, players can use their class/covenant troops/members as NPCs as long as they have the quest. Once the quest is completed, they canât use such again.
Just because itâs an MMO doesnât mean people play it for the group content. One of the main appeals of an MMO for many people is the concept of sharing a world together.
No matter how many times people want to skew the concept of an MMO, it will never change the fact that WoW was originally pioneered as a game where you could play solo. That was one of itâs bigger selling points when it came out as it was stacked against games like Everquest and FFXI, where grouping was an absolute requirement.
Iâve played this game since its inception; it was ALWAYS about the social/group aspect, and was even used as the proto-social media before even facebook was a thing. Even the most redundant tasks like questing were originally so difficult, they demanded groups to complete.
People are enjoying classic more than retail because of the demanded social element, which in turn, creates actual communities.
Stop ignoring definitions to hide what your whining is really about - you think the world revolves around you, and a group-based game should cater to your solo desires. Youâre apparently too stubborn to go play a game that already does, like Skyrim, so stick around trying to get âthe best of both worldsâ.
A massively multiplayer online game (MMOG or more commonly MMO) is an online video game with a large numbers of players, often hundreds or thousands, on the same server. MMOs usually feature a huge, persistent open world, although there are games that differ.
Just stop. But you will not. You just love trying so hard to be the only right person on these forums.
Itâs not bad faith at all. There are other MMOs out there with solo content and a lot of it. Even on the box for WoW originally said play solo OR with others. It never said ONLY with others.
Or, get this, people can not be donkeyâs rear ends to others and let them get what they need done.
I mean a lot of what you are against might not have even been brought up had the one with the handicap had been able to complete what they needed to, like if they need an item from a final boss, they should be allowed to get it, without being kicked, or, as long as they have credit for the kill, it item is AUTO LOOTED to them of sent in the mail.
it is not about the difficulty of the content, it is about needing others to let you get what you need done, done.
âŚare you trolling or doing this by accident? Wth are you even talking about LOL.
The grouping in WOTLK is 1000% more demanded than retail, countering your previous dribble of:
Yes ⌠duh ⌠it advertised you can make a character by yourself, level by yourself, and enjoy the world by yourself. It did NOT advertise you can do EVERYTHING by yourself, raid by yourself, get the best loot by yourself, etc
