Rearranging and Removing Portals

[Sabine-dawnbringer (Sabine)]

Never, why would they say something the wasn’t true…

[Karat-anubarak (Karat)]

That has to be a bug, right? There’s no way they could have intentionally done this.

[Spanko-kiljaeden (Spanko)]

Oh yeah, good point. They’d never do that, or make their players unhappy, or not communicate with them. That would be ridiculous!

[Spanko-kiljaeden (Spanko)]

Lol well played.

[Garion-uldaman]

Time for a rant.

I’m trying to get to Elwynn forest to get rolling on my Tides of Vengence stuff… but turns out I can’t get there easily. Seriously garbage Blizz. There’s no portal to the dark portal but I can go to Shattrath. There’s no portal to Karazhan either. Really unhappy with this change. It makes the world feel more cumbersome.

110-120 heirlooms need a huge boost

At the moment the azerite quest armor is MUCH stronger. The heirlooms are at 224 ilvl which is very low, plus you lose the azerite traits on top of that. The heirlooms are expensive and only for 10 levels, I don’t see the problem with making them stronger than the azerite armor.

Whelp, in conjunction with the portal change, something I mentioned earlier today. LOL

Some people have told me they are going to stop playing. Sad.

[Hardwire-velen (Hardwire)]

Now I’m sorry I paid in game gold because it just gave them more in their pockets from the seller of the token.

If it makes you feel better, they already had the money. It’s not like they wait for the tokens to sell before they charge someone’s credit card.

Unhealthy??? For who?

[Hardwire-velen (Hardwire)]

It’s not a REAL MMO if they don’t require you to walk barefoot in the snow, uphill both ways. At least, according to some people around here.

[Dumbeldorf-stormrage (Dumbeldorf)]

Unhealthy??? For who?

People post this stuff just to get under our skin; Best thing to do is not feed them and simply ignore them.

They’re just trying to start arguments.

Or perhaps they are Blizzard employees in disguise ?

[Taienna-aerie-peak (Taienna)]

You did what must be done. People will be upset, but you 100% made the right decision. Removing portals does expand the world regardless of what others may think. Portals and flying are good separate, but are unhealthy when combined.

Absolute nonsense.
ESO has a freakin portal every 18 feet, and it absolutely is a FAR better game than THIS crap game is.
In ESO I can port IMMEDIATELY to ANY PORTAL IN THE GAME…and NO…its NOT a problem and DOESNT make the world seem smaller. WAY faster than flying in WoW is by 100 times.
Quit stoking egos, please. This was a STUPID decision that is ticking off too many players for NO GOOD REASON!
please just stop acting like this stupidity on blizzards part makes an atoms worth of sense…it doesnt

unhealthy?
You starting that mental health crap again in here on another alt?
Its a game. If anything is unhealthy here its PLAYING it at all. travel has nothing to do with it.

And what are you even talking about ‘must be done’???
NONE of this crap had to be done NOR does it serve ANY VALID purpose.
AGAIN…ESO has INSTANT travel FROM anywhere TO pretty much anywhere…and I dont see a single person on their forums saying theyre quitting over it.

[Taienna-aerie-peak (Taienna)]

Removing portals does expand the world regardless of what others may think.

Adding content expands the world. Making people take longer to get to places they’ve seen hundreds of times does not.

Its frikkin hysterical to keep hearing these people begging blizzard to POINTLESSLY WASTE their game time.
Just how boring is ones life where TRAVEL time is somehow ‘immersive’

It is.
No REAL player of this game can be this ignorant of how the game works.
The one who didnt seem to comprehend what farming is and how the PORTALS being removed affected farming was a dead giveaway that its NOT real players.

Yeah, I’ve thought this all along but I have been guilty of buying tokens and boosts years ago; Only within the past year and a half have I gotten wise to ActiBlizz’s ways.

You would think after playing this game for 14 years casually without a break I would have learned my lesson years ago.

[Hardwire-velen (Hardwire)]

They’ve been getting progressively more obvious in their practices, like much of the gaming industry. Frankly, at this point I’m just waiting for the big crash.

[Dumbeldorf-stormrage (Dumbeldorf)]

Yep, Their arrogance will be their downfall I believe.

[Verdre-silvermoon (Verdre)]

It’s bound to happen. The sad thing is that a lot of honest people will be hurt by this.

I mean, think about the music department and the art department. When a crash happens, they’re going to be out of work. And they’re innocent of the jerkish moves Blizzard has pulled.

[Taienna-aerie-peak (Taienna)]

We have.
Three subs with tons of extra money spent for 19 months shot right down the drain over some stupid portals and Activision childish, controlling ways.
