Then all of those people need to get their eyes checked. It is, again, very clearly a cloth robe with ornamental pieces. It is not plate armor, regardless of how heavy the artist wanted it to look. Heavy and ornamental aren’t mutually exclusive either.

I never said they were, but a heavy armor is a heavy plate idk what you are smoking.

its ok to say you were wrong, you are now not only saying everyone is wrong but you are also now saying the artist you think its super talent is also very bad at her job and doesnt know how to make something that looks like heavy armor…

Things can be heavy without being plate, and golden decorative pieces definitely fall under that umbrella.

You’re putting a lot of words in my mouth, you should go back and read what i said again carefully.

sure but a heavy armor is a plate armor idk what you on about.

I’m not putting anything in your mouth, what you said about people who thought this looked like a heavy armor

Then all of those people need to get their eyes checked

well that was the looks the artis was going for, Paladin can literally be described as heavily armored priest, literally the look she wanted to give the set

Riot has been full RTO since April 2022. I would take more interest that they now have the “senior” title in their new job as more reason.

The amount of people who don’t care about this game losing such a talented artist are why this game/community sucks. If you don’t even care about this game having great looking characters, gear, creatures, etc, why are you even still playing it? Why wouldn’t you care?

It’s her choice? You can’t respect that?

Did it ever occur to people that both Blizzard’s requirements and pay maybe on the low-ish side is because of the actual game being developed?

World of Warcraft is almost twenty years old with an engine to match. It’s a great place for a starting artist to get into the industry, but other, far more advanced games and developers will always offer more money because there’s more responsibilities.

If you say things like this, then you’re not allowed to post things like this anymore:

Maybe the story would be better written if Blizzard paid their writers more and they didn’t leave for better jobs where they could work from home. You’re not allowed to criticize any aspect of the game anymore if you are willing to accept that Blizzard isn’t going to bother to pay for talented people to work on it. You have to accept mediocre quality.

That alone deserved a firing tbh.

The priest set is legit though.

Personally I play for the gameplay I couldn’t careless about the art or story.

Art and story are part of the gameplay, there would be no Warcraft without the art and story. It would just be… Pong.

I’d be fine with just random BGs with uglier graphics like I said the art and story are meaningless to me.

Someone still has to make those uglier graphics. Someone has to write a story to make sense of why that battleground/conflict exists. Someone has to make the graphics for your character to exist and write a story for why they exist and wear the gear that they do, especially if the rewards for doing that battleground are gear.

You probably care a lot more about art and story than you realize.

This is the part you put in my mouth, genius.

And “heavy” =/= “heavy plate”

Gold shaped into wings is heavy. It is also not plate armor.

It could be the ugliest cheapest models and I wouldn’t care. You don’t need story for a capture the flag/capture the point BG it could just be red vs blue team and it would be fine for me.

Just need the bare minimum for graphics hell one of my favorite games of all time is the F2P version of Dwarf Fortress and that game has next to no graphics.
