Too much PVE is required to even enter begin PVP and nothing is being done about it

That’s your opinion, but not held by most, people want to progress regardless of their chosen content. Otherwise they would be playing things like GW2

You will do your boring pve chores. You will play blizzards boring pve minigames. And you will like doing it.

Well how about Dota or LoL? Isn’t that the same idea? Or can you progress your character in power in those?

24

You buy items in those games to make your character ridiculously powerful.

25

Oh snap. So it’s pay to win?

26

Different types of games regardless.

27

Nah, you buy the gear mid-match with currency gained from killing players/minions/creeps.

28

Maybe wow should do that then. Seems a more equitable system than what we have now.

29

Well wow is a pve game that just happens to have pvp so you can’t really expect the devs to change the focus of the game to suit your playstyle, you either adapt or find a game that focus mostly or even entirely in pvp.

They used to. Then in legion they changed it.

I really don’t know why people still play wow for pvp honestly, it’s always been a mode that gets a penny for every dollar spent on pve, if that.

That’s why mop was imo the best xpac for pvp.

I see. So it seem like this issue is of their own making within the last few years. Seem reasonable they can change it then.

34

yeah pretty much this. Hots died cuz it had no carry from pve. WoW arena is just a moba carried by pve money.

Speaking of games with no pve, pretty sure people boycotted Black ops IV because of no campaign. Like, every time a mixed pve/pvp game tries to remove pve they have to add it back the next installment

Thats not a mmorpg. You are comparing apples and oranges.

Not everyone feels that way

38

Rating is progression for PvP games. Everyone should be on an even playing field for PvP. Blizzard should let players customize their stats instead of force them.

39

Well, tbf, wow arena does make a bunch of money in sponsorships

So you haven’t played in 12 years but somehow this irrelevant video is somehow gospel.

Ugh they really need to remove the linking of youtube videos on these forums already
