Let us hear the story people of those that keep saying they lost faith in blizzard. Let us hear your tales and stories. I just want to know what you think is wrong with blizzard these days.
I still personally think wrath was the best WoWâs ever been.
Cataclysm was a mistake. They overhauled a ton of systems and removed a ton of things to try to make things forcibly harder cause people complained people massively outgearing dungeons was bad.
Oh no, people in ICC gear are walking through heroics like a joke, itâs almost like thatâs what improving your gear is suppose to do!
But no, we canât have that. Iâm sorry, did you get yourself nice and set up as a healer to the point you had very high healing power, and enough MP5 to keep your healing up for a long span of time? Too bad, weâre completely gutting the entire mana system, on rank of casting only, downgrading casting is no longer a thing, all your spells take up set chunks of your mana no matter how much mana you have (Healers get more mana, but since everything is % based, it really doesnât matter), also weâre making Intelligence healing power now and removing mp5! (Hope you non spirit classes like spirit now, but weâll remove that too soon donât worry)
God I want a wotlk classic so bad. That was the last expansion I felt actually powerful.
Iâm always conflicted on cataclysm because I have tons of fond memories of cata and probably had the most fun during that xpac due to having a core group of people to play with.
I enjoyed a lot of cataclysm but totally understand the criticisms of it. It definitely wasnât a mistake too big to recover from with MoP being my evidence for that but after MoP things got fuzzy.
violet hold.
oculus.
10v25 sarth 3D
vehicle fights.
re-hased naxx with incorrect tuning.
undying/immortal achievements.
limited attempts- ToC
ulduar guardings that cant be called back up once you talk to. and the mysterios appearance of Thorim below ruining your +0 prog every week.
limited attempts - ICC
weekly buffs killing your progression momentum.
wolk was yuck
Most of those issues are knit picks at best, I donât recall any limited attempts when I was raiding, unless that was something very specific to the absolute end hard core stuff.
Woltk was great.
Look, wow will never be the same. Chuck Norris jokes are no longer a thing.
The exile of Xelnath.
When they gaslit everyone for two years beginning at Blizzcon 2013, while they tried to kill flying, and in doing so, almost killed the game instead by driving away half the player base over it.
Iâll never trust them again.
ToC had an attempt counter of 50.
ICC: Each wing endboss had a limited attempt count of 10. it went up by i believe 5 per week. that was for Putricide, Queen W/E, Sindragosa and Lich King.
Actually there was no world first week 1, before the stacking buffs, because of limited attempts.
world first came at 5% buff. thatâs how bad it was.
guilds would make copy alts of their mains to practice fights before doing it âfor realâ because of limited attempts.
it was great.
My man here throwing out facts.
Donât forget they ruined/wasted Anubâarak.
When they converted MoP enhancement from the beastly spec it was to the Fire Nova spam in WoD, I felt betrayed lol
No wonder Cata was hated, it sounds terrible. Imagine progression today with that system. Guilds would never make progressâŚ
I have a legit question. Why arenât there any Gilnean pups running around in Stormwind?
Probably towards the end of wrath. When the multiple raid difficulties started I started getting annoyed
this was wrath. cata did not have limited attempts.
I assume they were quick to remove the limited attempts thing?
yes.
they did it on Algalon in tier 8 and it was received well so they went HARD on it in tier 9 and people hated it - so they went harder on it in tier 10. and players extra-hated it.
on Algalon it semi-made sense. as a one-off it was alright.
When the obvious lack of communication and effort were displayed. Ion saying things in bfa like letting the pvp meta develop âorganicallyâ instead of fixing broke bs. I try not to sound too cynical but its obvious the cutting corners is really starting to affect this game alot.

I have a legit question. Why arenât there any Gilnean pups running around in Stormwind?
The Worgen curse isnât genetic.
Why is Alagon not in TW ulduar anyhow? By todayâs skillâŚwe could easily destroy him with discord call outs.
