The Problem With Delves

No, I don’t want to “talk to the NPC” I know which story it is, just let me run in. No, I don’t want to “grab the Elixir,” I don’t use it anyway, I just move! No, I don’t want to click the item for the special action button, just give it to me like you do in literally every other instance in which special action buttons are used.

Seriously, they are going out of their way, as in doing more work, to make us jump through these hoops. Why??

My issue with Delves is they don’t scale infinitely like M+ . Let me smash my face in a +23 while folks cry that a +12 is too hard and should drop Mythic track gear like +20’s do.

Pretty sure they make addons for this exact complaint.

out of all the problems delves have the 5 second and 1-2 clicks of the mouse “intro” to a delve is not it

Because these are Delves. Not dungeons. You’re in the wrong content if you just want to mindlessly kill mobs.

Delves are meant to be interactive and some of us asked for more interactive mechanics.

they just need to add a subway surfer video but its your character running through deeprun tram playing in the corner of the screen so people who can’t handle 5-10 seconds of downtime ever can be entertained

Hard agree, I’d really take any solo activity with a genuine skill ramp up that goes to insane levels.

Maybe there are addons for this, not sure.

Regardless of how easy or repetitive it may be after a while, Blizzard did state that Delves will have systems that will require more than just enter, kill, leave.

“No i don’t want to play the game, i just want to press one button like Phil Burnell and have everything finished for me”

Sounds like RPG’s aren’t your bag.

I would love that, but WoW for me is not about saving money and I can always find something to do especially with classic.

So, the extra… what… few seconds it takes to do that is your issue? You probably spent more time typing up your post than you did “jumping through these hoops” for like, a half-dozen delves.

I’m forced to agree with the OP. The little gimmicks in delves are cute… once. They get pretty old, pretty fast.

I wouldn’t mind not having to deal with those little nuisances every time I entered. The mirror one is particularly tedious. I prefer the environmental variations, like the exploding eyeballs. Something to play with and around, not a new button to press every 30 seconds.

I think having variety is cool and some people like more puzzles and gimmicks but I would prefer if delves were more like dungeons; just jump in and see how fast I can smash through it!

Kind of like in diablo, I think it’s rifts? I haven’t played D4 recently.

But if they could infinitely scale too that would be cool.

Besides having the gimmicks, I still absolutely love delves. Solo players dream.
