It is Time to Ban WoW Addons

@Beki-dalaran

None, if you have actually read my post.

You mentioned boss spells would be better telegraphed if they got rid of addons.

Can you name 1 mechanic in the past 2 raid tiers that had a bad telegraph?

It should be in the game’s default function.

Addons have been, and continue to be, what pushes WoW devs to add things into this game. Especially QOL features. Any player worth their salt can attest to this. It’s literally free dev/testing for the WoW team.

There are many current functions that were once addons, but now are baked into the gameplay. Saying something “should be” is the lazy man’s way of pointing the finger.

You can’t even get passed this. Just stop.

Back to pizza! I’m not a big deep-dish person. I’m more of a crispy thin crust

What the hell are you talking about?

Some functions were addons, and now in game = if there are no addons, there won’t be functions in game???

Were there mount/toy collection tab addons? No, Are they in game now? Yes.

Was transmog an addon function? No, Do we have it in game now? Yes.

Assuming without addons, some functions won’t exist, because dev only copy existing addon functions, is laughable.

Such obvious logical fallacy is not even worth replying.

Except for the fact that the devs have in the past copied addon functionality to add QoL to the game.

So whats your argument?

If the add ons get copied to be natively in game…is it hitting “update” on a 3rd party program thats really bothering you?

I actually agree with banning damage meters. I’ve seen people / classes get absolutely crapped on b/c of maths.

This would completely require that everything in WoW becomes trivial.

@Beki-dalaran

None, if you have actually read my post.

@Beki-dalaran

Not necessarily “simplified” the encounters, as some people have already point out, addon likes DBM/WA doesn’t always auto play the game for you.

You state here that addons like DBM and WA do not “always” auto play the game for you. In order to make this statement, you are implying that regularly they do auto play the game for you.

See. i read your posts.

So if DBM does not auto play the game for you at any point…you seem to be making a dishonest point here about DBM/WA.

sure, if that is what you understand from what i wrote.

No, what is laughable is you typed out this statement, read it, then hit send, without actually realizing you contradicted yourself.

Without the addons that they copied, what would they have had to copy from to get the in game function?

Would you mind clarifying? When you stated that DBM/WA doesnt ALWAYS play the game for you…specifically what were you referring to? What were you referring to that made you insert the word “always”?

[Qamaits-darrowmere (Qamaits)]

Circular logic eventually comes around to bite itself in the tush.

Yes, and You can see my argument in my original post, if you actually read it, before starting all these trolling.

Why do you even troll people’s thread if you don’t even read anything?

Using hyperbole and absolutes do not nullify what I’ve stated. You’re trying too hard at this point.

@Beki-dalaran

Were there mount/toy collection tab addons? No, Are they in game now? Yes.

I did not state EVERY SINGLE QOL feature was once an addon. It has, however, been a strong driving factor. To deny this is to deny the course of history.

@Beki-dalaran

Assuming without addons, some functions won’t exist, because dev only copy existing addon functions, is laughable.

I never said that. Reread.

You’re simply acting like some cartoony caricature at this point because you have nothing of substance. Are you that much of a miserable human?

Yes, and You can see my argument in my original post, if you actually read it, before starting all these trolling.

Ok. So here is a scenario.

You want Blizzard to just copy add ons people use to put it natively in game. Are you saying that going forward nothing new (add on wise) would ever be discovered, created?

Because as it was previously mentioned…if you stop add on development…you stop Blizzard from importing things natively into the game. Because those things dont exist.

Also.

Please…

So people questioning you is now “trolling”?

No, I want answers. You said that addons hurt the game.

HOW?

What, SPECIFICALLY, do they do to:

@Beki-dalaran

causes tons of other problems in the game

You haven’t answered that anywhere.

Give me 5 examples of what problems they cause.

[Cyous-area-52]

Bruh, these people won’t even answer a basic request for an example. They aren’t here for a discussion.

They haven’t provided a single example of a raid mechanic that has poor telegraphing. Just ignore them.

Day early friend.

[Gelyn-trollbane]

idk, I didn’t even have the attention span to read the whole OP.
If I didn’t have all my addons carrying me I’d be auto-running around SW getting stuck in corners and stuff.

I’m kinda dependent on them really, so I’d rather not lose them.

It is to point out the assumption “devs only copying existing addons functions” is false.

because there are in-game functions never existed in addons.

its time to ban people who make stupid threads like this one
