But again, this is just your opinion. To you, seeing a multiboxer breaks your sense of immersion (do you play on an RP server btw? Maybe you should!). To other players, they may see the multiboxer and think “wow that’s awesome!”.
There’s many things wrong with this argument.
For one, it seems like a real reach.
Second, it just doesn’t seem honest and appears rather self-serving.
Third, it’s really not Blizzard’s responsibility.
Fourth, you don’t get to say what other can and can’t, should or shouldn’t spend their money on, as long as it’s a legal exchange.
Heh, I would have laughed my *** off being on the receiving end of that. Can you imagine doing the DK starter zone 27 times? Mind numbing.
Anyway, this is a contextual argument against MBing in BGs, but not against MBing in and of itself.
Okay well they’ve allowed it for 15+ years so what rock have you been under that you came to such false expectations?
This sounds like an argument that comes from a player who sells capped characters for a living. I fail to see how you’ve managed to validate that multiboxing being allowed is somehow better for the game.
This sounds like you’re just saying things for the sake of saying them, and to cast unfounded aspersions. because you’ve run out of arguments to present.
Why do you think that’s my purpose here? Multiboxing is already allowed and deemed perfectly acceptable by the ToS for 15 years. I’m not white knighting multiboxing, I’m black knighting your crappy arguments.
Dude this isn’t a valid argument to address the question i asked.
If Blizzard allows multiboxing to break the game in the ways I mentioned earlier, they’re hardly a credable authority upon which to swear. You can’t thump a bible which worships satan, okay? That isn’t how it works.
I’m a virtuous person who values integrity, and this is my opinion.
You’re not going to be able to change that opinion, because the entire premise of your argument comes from a place that lacks virtue. It’s only justifiable by greed.
So only people who agree with you are credible? That’s rather dishonest.
Uh, are you trolling now? Where was your integrity when you threw out the ToS and Blizzard as soon as they disagreed with you?
I’m not here to change your opinion, I’m here to make you look like an utter fool so other people don’t make the mistake of adopting your poorly reasoned views.
What are you talking about? I multibox because I enjoy the challenge and experimenting with different team comps. Multiboxing is actually hard. You not only have to know how to play each class in your team, but how to optimize them around 1-3 abilities, go through each of their rotations while maintaining threat and proper positioning on the tank and also keeping track of everyone’s health and casting the appropriate heals and dispels. Not to mention that the time it takes to level a team multiplied by the number of characters in the team (roughly speaking). A 5 man team leveled via questing takes about 5x as long as a single character.
You just have no idea what you’re talking about. Your entire argument has been against a straw man.
Then perhaps you should set up a private server to do that on where it can’t negatively affect the gameplay experience for players who are trying to play the game like it was designed to be played.
You don’t need the assistance of other players, so you’re not losing anything by playing on your own server.
I’m talking about integral gameplay. Stop playing ignorant. Your attention is obviously selective to confirm your biases.
According to the game’s design. You can’t multibox without 3rd party software, thus it was not designed to be played that way.
Oh, so you spend time playing the game like it was intended to be played? interesting.
Hmm, maybe you should consider the fact that WoW is a social game, and that you’re supposed to play with others rather than using 3rd party software to solo group content.
Look, dude. Because multiboxing was so prevalent in Classic, most low level content on most servers is entirely devoid of players. Nobody’s leveling alts, because they leveled and capped all the classes they wanted during phase 1. Ruined the vast majority of the game’s content, because most of the game is contained in levels 1-59.
I still don’t see how this benefits the vast majority of players. Sounds to me like Blizzard is accommodating a vocal minority because it’s financially lucrative; despite the fact that it’s damaging to the integrity of the gameplay in the myriad number of ways I’ve thus far produced, and many others.
