You’re completely disregarding the fact that Delves are coming, and the gear from those will scale up to normal raid levels. How is that different from scaling follower dungeons up to heroic dungeon or M0 levels?
It’s not. In fact, it’s lower, so I ask again: why would it bother you so much if follower dungeons are expanded to heroic or M0 dungeons?
Does someone else having more fun mean you have less fun?
This seems like it’s just you trying to gatekeep other folks who don’t enjoy the group content style of gameplay, but still love WoW.
Let’s cut to the chase. What the end goal of the gear and dungeon war? Just mail the maxed out mythic gear once hitting level cap. I mean that’s what everyone wants right?
I got money, I don’t have time. I pay for what I like. I will not pay to skip or pay or continue to pay for unfin things in the hopes they leader lead to fun things. Too time poor for that.
End game content would still exist mostly as it is because even with say heroic and mythic 0 included with as you call it story mode, anything past that including mythic anything else, raiding in all difficulties, world stuff, battlegrounds, etc. would still be done as it is.
Also again people who do whatever content whether with other players or AI players shouldn’t be punished with lesser rewards because they are still doing the content so saying that really isn’t the way to go.
How is Blizzard saying it’s for learning failed logic?
Straight from the article:
Whether you want to experience the dungeon for the first time as a solo player or you want to have a friend or two join you to learn the mechanics and boss fights, you can queue to join this new type of dungeon feature right within the Group Finder (I) tool.
I never said it would disappear. I simply said that I don’t believe people should be using a story mode to gear up solo through end game group content.
No one is being punished. A story mode raid wouldn’t even really have mechanics or anything. It would be to solo for story. Because there are people who would rather not have to watch YouTube.
I’ve enjoyed story modes in Old Republic. I still run them for the rewards they do give, mostly cosmetics, but still nice to learn stories and get something fun from it, while I finish quests.
So then this is personal opinion, not agreed upon by everyone.
They would be if they were in higher version of content then gimped because of doing it with AI instead of other players which is exactly what you are asking for if this did happen.
Is that somehow a shock? Not everyone agrees and no one said everyone had to.
What’s with all of the reading into stuff around here? People flipping out at me because they didn’t understand why I said to play other games, people claiming I’m giving my opinion as fact, people flagging my post because they don’t agree…
This whole thing is out of hand and I’m not going to deal with such angry, defensive people who can’t just say, “I don’t agree.”
Maybe you shouldn’t be trying to gatekeep people and you wouldn’t have that issue, normally we get along but in this case you are wrong, sorry but you are.
You want to punish people for not wanting to play how you play, you want them to get lesser rewards if they do have the option of AI, it’s just really not cool all around.
