What have you considered fun in the past?
Everything prior to Ion becoming lead developer. It is not that complicated. The game was fine until WOD. Take everything from WOD forward, completely scrap it, and go back to the formula that actually worked.
I didn’t say it was complicated. I asked what you consider to have been fun. Do you have any examples?
Re-read it over and over until you grasp it.
original Holy Radiance
Bring back the toy box to where it was fun again.
Flying at max level.
Wow offers a variety of classes and specs. It also offer world content to engage for players. I enjoy playing multiple classes/specs. My personal progression is important to me as a player and so faster transportation to enjoy all those class/specs in the world.
And yeah I know no one will bring it up because green lettering.
Big zones. I almost, not quite, but almost miss Vanilla Barrens chat. Now the zones are small and filled with insanely frustrating terrain. I’d love to see large zones that we progress through with interesting, and sometimes connected, stories that were essentially “local” in flavor and may or may not have had a direct relationship to the over arching story.
BFA made a valiant attempt at this and it succeeded at the story level but just felt so cramped. The unhappy brutosaur couple or working with isolated groups of vulpera were nice examples of this. It’s just the zones were cramped and things spilled over into each other.
Related to this, please bring back the flight whistle as well as much earlier flying.
- Horde stories. With a Horde protaganist. (The last Horde protaganist was in Cataclysm.)
- Looting options for guilds.
- Reforging.
- Have Group, Will Travel
I’d like an option to bring back a non-scaled version of the game. No CRZ, phasing, etc either. Back when we had a server to play on with people we’d actually see more than once, which is how communities form organically.
I miss the feeling of progression and danger that it had, and I don’t care if I out level a zone before finishing all of the quest.
I used to get excited when looking across a river at mobs that I wasn’t ready for yet. It gave me a goal to work towards.
That’s been removed for the most part, and I wish they would bring it back. You know, the roots of a role playing game.
The problem is ability pruning - a lot of old tier set & legendary bonuses apply to abilities that don’t exist anymore.
I recall that, in the old days, they used to adjust old tier sets to work on new abilities. I guess they figured it was just too much time for very little benefit (and as more items were added, the amount of work involved just kept growing).
Bring back good ol 8 hour AV’s
What I want brought back huh? Oh boy where do i start with this… hmm
1: Hunter’s Elemental ammo ability so i can have fire,poison, or ice ammo anytime I want but maybe on a cooldown between changes and each last like a set time like poison does for rogues
2: Alchemist’s specializations that were introduced in BC to matter again
3: The odds Worgen get their tails
4: A shot at the Zulian Tiger that’s not reliant on crazy prices in that Black Market auction house that keeps changing locations
5: Worgen gals able to at least have a flirt where they call themselves B****y again as I always had my worgen gals being hard workers that them calling themselves such was quite fitting.
6: Werebears to either go back to no dance or get a better dance that doesn’t make me want to throw them off the nearest cliff
7: Serpent sting being for more than Survival spec on hunters if my #1 request is a no go
8: A chance for more skimpy armor sets for female characters even if it means the guys end up with them in similar fashion, which if they’re trying for the gender equality idea would be fine as some guys dress in drag IRL so why not the option in game without crossing the line
9: Shaman to have that ability where they can summon totems of all four elements even though it was a talent. I really miss being able to have my shamans use offensive fire totems and not so sparse a selection of totems, or well at least the totem that shoots people while it’s out even for enhancement spec as it was comforting to at least feel like I got covering fire in a fight
