New players dont like anything about WoW

whaaaaaat
I mean I’m not judging you or anything, you do you because you do you best, it’s just a rare opinion.
Oh yeah it was cliche as heck, but cliches are in the execution.

The joy in WoW is in the people you play with. As a game, in and of itself, it’s not worth playing.

Yeah I got you, haha. But yeah, I just found ME3 to be way more fun (and way more fun to break too. Omg, Inferno Ammo with that Prothean beam rifle? Or Garrus with the Armor Piercing Ammo and the 100 mag LMG? Oooooooh it was beautiful.)

I liked the tone, atmosphere, characters, feeling, plot direction, plot twists and turns, various inclusions on quests with different imports, things like Big Mama (I call her that, but she’s that giant worm on the Tachanka homeworld.) I loooved ME3 haha.

Torghast has fixed levels with procedurally generated enemy spawns. It’s kinda Diablo-esque. If you aren’t keyed in to grinding the ash for leggos you aren’t much going to enjoy it.

I took a break from it this week with Ember Court, the cool Venthyr side game where you hold society parties.

Below is a brief little rundown on what it’s all about.

WoW is the weird hamster wheel when it comes to RPGs, and the game changes drastically when you hit the level cap. To me at least expansions feel like a Diablo 3 Season with some extra story throne in. Change up the mechanics a bit each season, but it’s a completely different game than the initial run through experience while your leveling.

Your three friends aren’t enough of a pool to determine what “new players” like. Your three friends are friends for a reason and likely have similar opinions. Your friend group could have a very different opinion than another friend group though.

It’s an RPG. The point of an RPG is to tell a narrative. And to determine one’s role within it. Story has always been important to WoW. If they do not like story, there are other games which can give them action without story. Overwatch is a good example, and I say that as someone who enjoys Overwatch.

In any case, I’m sure you can agree ya just can’t play it standalone. I mean, I can’t even imagine how lost I’d be broing out with Garrus if I didn’t know he was definitely the best bro in the entire universe for every good reason.

Antisocial misanthrope. People like you are bad for the game.

I have a friend starting soon, she’s watched me play a little already and loves it. She done the trial account and enjoyed that too.

So no, not all new players dislike everything in WoW.

Hey, it’s really good. Nothing like installing 300+ mods, crashing, following S.T.E.P. guide to make it vanilla again, installing 200+ mods, crashing, then unisntalling the game before ever getting past the character screen.

dont pretend leveling from 1-50 actually teaches you anything about the story… for the most part old raids are the only parts of the game that actually teach you the story

ive leveled dozens of characters and I only ever actually learned the full story of an expansion I didnt actually play by watching videos on youtube.

That’s true. Worldstate imports are so amazing for ME3. Especially getting Quarians and Geth to coexist.

On that note, the last time I did the playthrough, I thought I did it appropriately, so I guess I missed something somewhere–like 1 point in the over-all tally, and I witnessed the double-suicide of Legion and Tali… I was soooo, soooo destroyed…

The reason wow players are seen as a joke.

might not learn the full story, but having leveled a couple characters through bfa chromie time, it gives you enough of the coles notes to go off of.

Being honest, I looked up the correct choices there. I didn’t trust myself to make them.

I remembered them, but I think I made one choice somewhere and thought I could make it up later, but wasn’t actually able to and it got put in the back of my mind until that moment.

Js, but nothing in ME1 or ME2, or even Dragon Age has moved me quite like that cinematic did… I genuinely stopped playing that save file, lol.

Agreed. It’s like skipping to the last chapter of a book and then complaining you didn’t understand the ending.

A 16 year old game based off an even older RTS series is going to be hard for anyone to get into that isn’t already invested in it.
