Iâm a big fan of Gordon Ramsayâs mentality on businesses. Heâs the biggest chef in the world, he has plenty of restaurants and heâs extremely rich so his method obviously works.
Whatâs his method? The most important thing is making profit sure, but he has the passion, and he cares about the customers. Heâs not hiding that he has to make money but heâs not showing pure greed either. He truly offers the best and he believes the customer is king. The profits flow freely with that method and the customers are happy! I think Blizzard could take some notes from that.
Of course they want to make a profit. The problem is, I think they donât really know how to do that. Everything they do fosters more and more ill will from the community. Yes, of course, there are people on the forums that will defend everything, and I know there are millions of people who are still loving things. But, that doesnât stop the fact that more people are leaving than there are people coming in for the first time, and they donât understand how to have player retention.
The only thing I can figure is a) they truly have no clue what theyâre doing or b) they have accountants who have done the math and shown that the whales bring in more money and will continue to bring in more money than the subs theyâre losing.
Leveling isnât nearly as fun as it used to be. Itâs far, far too fast now, and condensing of all the expacs makes it so you merely have to dip your toes into an expac for easy experience before moving on and BOOM your 50. Then you hustle your way to 60 within a few days and hit a monstrous wall of gear grinding.
There was a time when leveling actually meant something. Where you spent time with your character and learned to love them along the long journey to max level. Now itâs all about the class and spec you play and the character is just the necessary face attached to those abilities.
In short, WoW is no longer an RPG, itâs a fantasy sports game thatâs all about competitive end-game content.
Itâs hard to âenjoyâ leveling when you barely get to experience it, which is why classic and BC are doing so well.
Yes I agree- Blizz does not respect its players. They Ignore player feedback, There is a discussion in PvP. The blue post had 25 upvotes with over 17k views and over 650 replays against the change. Months later still no Blue post back. Truly SAD!
Havenât done world quests in ages and having a great time. Thereâs no reason to do âchoresâ. If you donât like PVP, M+, or raiding you probably are wasting your time.
No its absolutely honest. Youâre yet another person randomly complaining: âthereâs nothing to doâ while you refuse to do anything available. The game isnât World of World Quests. The spend the dev time on actual end-game content (M+, raids, pvp), as they should.
Thatâs fine, who cares? Itâs like people logging into EVE online and then saying: âI donât like playing the economy, politics, or space battles, I really want to just build a log cabin and fight dragons, Iâm leavingâ Uh, okay bro, you know EVE online was always about economics, politics, and space battles right?
