Not sure if clever, lazy or coincidence - AP grind

Artifact power
Azerite power
Anima(e) power

Same thing, same acronym.

I think word “power” is true culprit.

The first one may or may not have been a coincidence, but now they’re going to roll with it forever because they couldn’t be arsed updating the variable names in their code and scripts.

Are they really trying this again… Surely it couldn’t be as bad as BfA’s AP grind.

they said it wont be same infinite grind. So it might be worse.

That would actually be impressive.

Oh boy do I have news for you…
Tell me if you heard this before: Expansion starts, you cap at max level and you do a questline that leads you to an NPC that will give you a Legendary that you will empower through the whole expansion. As you collect more AP, you gain better versions of the weapon…

Hopefully they will just cancel the new AP and say, “You know what? Very few people enjoyed this! Let’s not do it again.” But instead, they might say, “We got an average of X days of play time per subscribed account. That’s up Y% from WoD! Let’s make Anima Powers even more relevant, since people loved it so much!”

Blizzard, I love you and I hope that you will consider replacing Artifact Power systems with engaging questlines, non-passive spells, and incredible zones. And I know you can do it, too! Keep it up with the great content and I’ll play for the beauty. I’ll play for the class structure! I’ll play to explore with my friends. You have nothing left to prove, and I know that people will play this great game without time sinks forcing them to do so.

Their internal data suggest otherwise! Everyone did it, therefore they must love it. Never mind that they did it cause they had no choice.

Well, that and players would just keep calling it AP anyway.

:thinking:

Oh i got it! :point_up: :open_mouth:

The “Triple AAA” video game industry is lazy. :laughing:

Coming soon to an expansion near you:
Auspicious Power
Augmented Power
Allied Power
