…Wow devs have chosen PvE and we should let them with their PvErs.
They said it multiple times, PvP will never be in a good state due to this fact.
Just make your peace with it and move on, I think we made as far as we could playing this joke of a game.
They will treat PvP as a mini-game and just tune the game for that, no matter if we have DHs flying all over the map and doing more DMG than anything actually, or if a Melee rework will break the game for like several weeks, and you will lose 500 rating.
PvP is just not serious in Wow, and they don’t care.
I am an old school WoW player, and I am slowly trying to get that and move on, since I hate Wows PvE.
PVP has and will always be a WOW mini game, their main focus is on PVE content, just feels bad for the no lifers that invest so much time and energy into WOW PVP, such a waste of life.
If only more people realised this. It always was designed to be an RPG experience, not a PvP game and consistently PvP has been the biggest reason for the game being ruined. If there was no PvP we could be having so much more fun. Classes could be so much more enjoyable with interesting skills, abilities, mechanics and features that we’re not allowed to have because every PvPer is sat there crying they can’t one shot every other class. When all you have to do is make a game fun to play mechanics the options are endless, as soon as you ruin it with PvP everything has to go super lame and restrictive. PvP should just be done with so we can actually have some interesting gameplay. At the very least nothing should ever be tweaked because of PvP.
Hey, I just wanted to share something really cool I noticed in DF PvP has become super popular thanks to Solo Shuffle. Apparently, it’s way more popular now than in previous expansions.
The reason for this is that Solo Shuffle made PvP way more accessible to everyone. In the past, you had to have certain achievements or play only with friends, but now, anyone can jump in and have a great time. It’s like the good old days of Vanilla WoW when everyone loved Battlegrounds because they were easy to get into and have fun with PvP.
I think most games with big player bases are PvP games because people just love the excitement of it. It’s a totally different feeling than battling a computer-generated boss.
So, when people say that PvP isn’t a big part of the game, I’m not so sure about that. The stats for this expansion prove that PvP content is a pretty big deal.
This is such a stupid line of thinking and I hate when people say this about really anything
If its spent enjoyed then it is not time wasted
Should people be playing 6-8 hours of video games every day without other meaningful hobbies and healthy habits? No, but if people enjoy WoW in their spare time then it isn’t wasted.
This is a straight mindset problem, coming from someone who got 2200 through LFG playing with no voice in Shadowlands.
People who are game illiterate are fun, like you for example. Did you know there are specific modifiers on every damage/healing/defensive for pvp? So the whole post you made isn’t relevant.
The actual issue is a player base that wants participation trophies and are never OK with losing (who’d have thought score less soccer game playing tide pod eating peeps would flinch from something moderately competitive) and a dev team/studio that’s so tapped for actual content and design that the metric for success had to be swapped from something tangible to something intangible meaning Monthly active users. Which is an affect of Leftist influence, they can’t innovate b/c risk of offence.
I’d argue that MDI/Mythic raiding has done more damage to balance in the short time they have been in game than the entirety of pvp.
Ok some simple facts for you. The pvp population across all realms and all locations composes anywhere from 15% - 20% of the player base and is INCREDIBLY hard to balance that around with basically an angry mob ready to pounce at any given moment, this post isnt any different.
Secondly, you honestly think NO ONE cares about pvp? Man I hope you were a ret paladin 0.00001 seconds after they reworked us and trying to live your life to the constant ear shattering tune of “ReT pAlAdIn Is ToO oVeRpOwErEd!!! NeRf ThEm!!!”
If you weren’t so dense you’d realize they can make pve/pvp specific changes and have before but are too lazy to do it often. Also pve is insanely boring.
