would you like to speak to the manager?
Manager of a dying company? And a dying Game?
I’ll believe it when the game is dead. Game has been dying ever sense TBC. There has been dozens of WoW killers. Dozens of fubars. Keep doomsaying odds are eventually you will call it right.
wish i had a dying company that rolls a dying game and make that absurd amount of money each year, damn…
“iTs ThE tOkEnS aNd StOrE tHe ReSpOnSiBlEs FoR tHaT”
And you log in one day and you get a shut down 15 minutes Message in your chat bar.
“Wow is closing down for good been fun everyone! Servers shutting down in 15 minutes.”
What are you going to do then when it actually does die?
move on and hope they release a solo player version like a normal person would.
will pass more time in ff14 then. ezpz lemon squeeze
Single player WoW?
sure why not? A big detraction for a fair amount of people to the game is the community itself. Erase the community and make content balanced around solo play and it’d be an enjoyable experience. I know it’s hard to picture an MMo as a solo player game but the conversion isn’t all that hard.
Would it have Co-op and some multiplayer servers? Like some single player, Co-ops do?
Well that would be amazing, but if the company was to go under as some suggest keeping something like that open likely wouldn’t be in the cards unless they set it up to be privately ran by players.
They can just put this new Single player, Co-op WoW version on Steam. And alot of steam community would notice and try it out.
That would be great, but honestly don’t see it as something we have to worry about. If they was planning to dismantle Blizzard they wouldn’t of hired someone to lead the ship. Even if they did, they wouldn’t of chosen someone that actually plays the game. It’d just be some random suit. And communication of the next mini update adding customization options isn’t your normal behavior for a game closing down. Typically prior to a shut down is a long time period of dead silence and no patches.
I don’t have much faith that WoW can be saved other then stripped of its mmo status down to Single player and co-op.
Too many people are quitting to justify WoW to remain a mmo for much longer. It will just look like Rift does now a giant Ghost Town with only 10-20 players total.
There is still millions of players, I don’t see this ghost town scenario being a issue just yet. Biggest problem is the player spread. Could potentially see some more combining of battlegroups and such.
True but it still a issue.
This is true, but it’s a super old game. The fact it still has as many players as it does is a bit of a surprise. Specially considering how many cultural shifts there has been sense the day WoW was made to today. It’s so easy to make a slip and get canceled over something you said 10 to 20 years ago.
That is if people are willing to dig up your past that far in history. What you said 20 years ago doesn’t really matter too much you can’t take it back anyway. Even if it was something bad.
Sadly it’s what people do. They are doing it to ghostcrawler now just because of guilt by association.
A small minority perhaps I seriously doubt 95% of normal people even care what you said 20 years ago. But of course there are those out of the way 5% that does.
If people feel that offended what you said back then still changes nothing. There is nothing you can do about it anyway. 20 years is a long time ago.
