SoD was fun for a week, but the game is dead

WoW Classic Season of Discovery
1

The game was fun for a bit. But the game is dead. Not the game itself, but the community. There’s actually nothing to do.

Farm gnomer? For what? Every class only has 3-4 BiS pieces out of gnomer. And its all replaced in 2 months anyway.

The game isn’t a traditional MMO in a sense, you are pidgeonhole forced to play certain specs. If your spec isn’t viable, you can’t play the game. You won’t be invited to raids, you do 0 damage and die instantly in PvP.

You don’t actually need any gear to clear gnomer. So why does it drop loot? There’s zero point of the loot even. And there’s so much of it who cares?

There’s no competitive PvP either. Ranking is free. Afk some bgs and you get max rank. No point in trying in any of the BGs either because a shadow priest will just 1 shot you if you do while healing to full in 1 penance. Boring.

Anyways, games dead, surprised this game makes hundreds of millions of dollars.

The game is so dead you need to tell people playing it to stop playing it, these posts don’t make no kind of sense, I suggest taking a break with a movie: The Lost Skeleton of Cadvara.

DANGIT I fell for ANOTHER Humble brag mefirster post! when will I learn.

Oh another one of these, ok, let’s get into it.

This is WoW in a nutshell. Always has been, always will be. Get on the cycle of gear, babbbbyyy.

Who’s forcing you? If you’re doing pugs and can’t get in because of your spec, then make your own and cater it to what you think the raid needs. These people are just reading Meta logs and whatnot, you don’t actually need that for Gnomer.

BFD was the same way. All raids are roughly the same way.

This is a seasonal thing, I can’t really speak on it, but I’m 99% certain you can’t just AFK?

If it’s no longer fun, stop playing it.
Time to play another game. Maybe go outside. Why keep doing something that isn’t fun?

Yep. Thanks for confirming my points. It’s all just a lootamine cycle. Yes, a new word. “Lootamine”. invented by me. It’s the word to describe the dopamine addiction the hundreds of thousands of WOW players have.

Lootamine addicts.

Can you describe to me the last fun experience you had in SoD?

“its dead because it uses the exact same formula as all the other wow games, none of which are dead”

Streamsnipe strikes again with an extremely low effort bait, please try to do better, at least try to make us think you are serious, tell us your shadow priest is unplayable or something

Legit question, have you ever played WoW before? Youre posting from a WOTLK character asking what the point is?

What was the point of MC when BWL is coming out?
What was the point of BWL when AQ is coming out?
What was the point of AQ when Naxx is coming out?
What was the point of Naxx when TBC/Kara is coming out?
What was the point of Kara when SSC/TK is coming out?
What was the point of SSC/TK when BT is coming out?
What was the point of BT when SWP is coming out?
What was the point of SWP when Wotlk/naxx 80 is coming out?
What was the point of Naxx80 when Ulduar is coming out?
What was the point of Ulduar when TOGC is coming out?
What was the point of TOGC when ICC is coming out?
What was the point of ICC when Cata is coming out?

See the problem here? So is it not worth doing Gnomer because Cata might one day come out? Imagine that being your outlook on raiding LOL. Just quit playing wow bro, game aint for you

What do you want to do?

Do you enjoy Retail arenas, RBGs, BGs, M+, LFR/LFD?

Do you think you’d enjoy that with Classic talent builds?

Have you explored some of the harder to do, out of the way quests you have access to at level 40? Like the 2 dragons in the Badlands, for example?

Here is a helpful hint to the OG poster, maybe don’t play 24 hrs straight, each day for the first 2 weeks.

nothing, cata is dead.

In general, the vanilla meta end game was World PvP. To grief each other. To do that, you needed the best gear and supplies always. That was taken away. So there is no end game anymore. Also ranking was competitive, so you needed the best gear. Also taken away.
