Yep… and while I am not one of them. I have spent many of hours trying to recontextualize what leveling actually is.
All of this ultimately just leads to something retail-like but faster with the ability for someone to pay to skip the story… granted I was also trying to redesign the new player experience for people who have not been playing warcraft for two damn decades.
lol true
“Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”
It’s up to them to play how they want, not you. It’s also their money to burn, not yours.
Some of you shouldn’t make threads.
Few of the people I’ve seen complain about the honor grind, parses, etc., seem to be enjoying the game, though.
Imagine being so worried about what others are doing
Imagine caring how people enjoy their time and play the game.
Worry about yourself perhaps?
So many people acting as if OP is wrong. I mean you should play the game you want to play.
Though I suppose paying to skip a majority of the game is better than those people spending it on drugs or something so whatever. I don’t care either way.
You’re right. I for sure hated leveling - the X time around. It got boring and repetitive. That being said I only had 2 mains. 2 mages. No alts. For real. We’ll never know if people really liked it, but there were a ton of people (mostly noobs) that had a billion level 30 alts.
To me, it’s not necessarily about leveling itself. It’s what it represents. It’s tedium and time spent that the new generation hates. Instead of rolling with the punches, they complain that its too hard or quit, or whatever. Classic is already a flow chart. The players 15 years ago paved the way for people The little amount of resistance that could be there, should be manageable but its still too much. So, from a “get off my lawn”'s players perspective, it really is pretty pathetic.
Now it’s not necessarily bad objectively. the player base is just different.
AMEN BROTHER, just focus on your main and enjoy the journey
Some of us played the game and hit 70, you should try it!
you know? the game only starts after you do all those things 
Now after you obtained the gear, you can have fun in w/e you’re gonna do.
Welllllll WA is kinda similar to **GladiatorlosSA and other addons like DBM and such that you can train a dead dog to use.
You may consider it “playing” but really its more following directions presented; things that bots can and do better.
For those that PvP absolutely but what about those that only PvE? Then what?
Song named for you
about pve, let me ask you.
what’s more enjoyable? going 5man dung in green/blue gear or going in t6 and enjoying big crits?
and for raids, once you have the gear you won’t worry about loot, you’ll only join raids with friends/guilds or even random pugs to experience different atmosphere.
so they’re singing for female slaves! no wonder why they have comments disabled.
Im that oddball that loves beginning to end, so kinda the whole game is my thing.
I thought you might like the song but yes, is slave girl so many of the more easily offended kind will be critical. Its kinda about a very different time tho.
If you wanna watch the little tiny buff window at the top of your screen to snapshot dots more power to you. In my experience people that don’t use weakaurs don’t do this and drastically fall behind.
You can see this by looking at the gap in logs. Classes that rely heavily on snapshotting and perfect gameplay drop off significantly from the “meta” classes when looking at green parses. But if you look at orange parses the gap between the worst class and the best class is not that wide.
Edit: Also if you are a tank you really don’t want to overlap external cooldowns, and while some havr obvious visuals, it’s far easier to have a big countdown in your view so you can say time a pain suppression into a shield wall instead of accidentally overlapping them.
It’s the reason they are adding so many UI customizations in the next retail expansion. They know how important this stuff is.
This is the Social Interaction Blizzard is so proud of, and why they dont want RDF.
Some people have too much money and don’t believe in charity …
Truer words have never been spoken.
At the end of the day, they thought they did, but they didn’t. JAB was right.
