Could we please get back to Warcraft? Something dark and gritty that resembles WC3.

No lie the music has given me a headache and it just feels odd.

I also minimize it when by GF walks by because of how bizarre it all looks - she thinks im playing a game meant for her 5 year old nephew.

This is a you problem. I’m not a fan of undermine but the lack of “darkness and grit” is not the reason. If you minimize the game when someone walks in that’s on you

If you’re hoping to impress her with how dark, gritty and adulty your games are, WoW is probably the wrong choice in general.

Fellas, is it effeminate to play WoW?

Edited because I don’t feel like being banned lol

I don’t recall WC3 being “dark and gritty”. The colors were bright and vibrant and the overall theme was rather cartoonish, as WoW is. Diablo is the more “dark and gritty” Blizzard franchise.

You have the option to turn off the music in the menu if you don’t like it.

If you feel the need to hide your hobby from your significant other, then I don’t know what to tell you. That sounds like a personal thing that you need to work out with her and with yourself. It certainly doesn’t sound like a healthy dynamic by any means.

I realize this was a unit ; but it was a joke rather than the heart of warcraft.

I’m not a fan of this patch so far, its just a weird attempt at a racing game of sorts. I thought Blizzard was smart enough to not attempt dumb things like this, it didn’t work for Fortnite, and that should speak volumes.

All I want is to get back to the warcraft in BC / WOTLK / WOD ; like seriously, i can see a few gimmicks and a little bit of teehee ; but this is just a step too far and is just corny tbh

Really? Because goblins still bring a lot of that same energy in wow. It seems like it’s a pretty intentional bit of design.

I just tab over to some “beach scene” furry art when a loved one walks past my computer.

It’s much easier to explain than Undermine.

OP, maybe Diablo VI will be more to your liking.

Nah it’s a WoW problem. This is a comedy relief intermission patch and it isn’t even funny. Delivery and execution can be a problem. Reception isn’t generally the issue it’s usually simply a justified reaction to bad.

WC3 is only dark and gritty all the way through in your head.

Wanting to go back to WoD is certainly a take.

I feel like people who demand for the uber “dark and gritty” segments of WoW’s history never mentally matured out of being 15, because I don’t know of a single adult in my friend group who actually cares about any of this lol
