Well so much for Blizzard staying true to their promise to keep classic vanilla true to the original game. Last night while raiding it has been observed that certain behaviors, i.e. emotes have been removed from the game due to butt hurt feelings. I’m sick of this woke agenda. If you want to play lollipops and roses go play that game. Stop changing to try and please everyone. NO vanilla is NOT retail where we will give you treasure just for logging in. Nor should anything be nerfed because it “too hard”. Blizzard promised it’s clientelle that this expansion would be as close to the original as they could get due to lost files. Just because societal norms have changed doesn’t mean you need to change anything about your product. If they don’t l ike it, go play retail.
Smells like basement sweat in here.
Which emotes?

Is this the spitting/whistling changes from idk a couple years ago, or is there something new?
No spit no sub
spit, and i think maybe a couple others.
I only use /dance /thank and /love so… i cant really say for sure, im not an angry person so i don’t use most emotes=\
Blizzard also went hard anti women and deleted pictures of women from certain locations. I say deleted, but really they swapped them for pictures of fruit.
Imo, the changes are incredibly ridiculous and there probably should be more of an outcry/reaction against them, but most of us playing this game probably ignore those sorts of things and just keep playing, because we enjoy it so much anyway.
I believe the /spit emote was removed around the launch of tbc due it being used on those that bought the boost/mount. Was sad to see it go, especially for that context.
In reality we should have rioted over it… I didn’t even know until TBC… LOL, Just Bluzzerd being stupid per usual… Likely trying to earn some brownie points with the political officers at their company.
That’s the word on the street. I find it kind of hard to believe that that would be the reason though. And if it is, then all the more reason to reject this change.
I noticed in APEX Legends, which seems to try to its hand at wokeness with diversity of legends, that one legend Mad Maggie spits on people with one of her finishers. I’m not sure what to make of that.
This is the same blizzard that wasted time changing all the in game paintings that had any sort of body type 2 individual on them. They’re just woefully out of touch.
Spit was removed because of Asmongold. His fault entirely. He does something we all get punished for it and he does not. Thats how much Blizzard loves the guy.
Darn him, if I ever see him in game I’ll /spit, streamer money is blood money
Oh it’s one of those posts. Can’t wait to see how this goes.
You’re talking about a playerbase that welcomed realm transfers with open arms and continues to abuse them to no end.
removing /spit was and still is unforgivable, it is true
You can just /spit /point
I’m happy that the spit emote was removed. It’s been a garbage emote since 2004.
Great that emotes just been replaced with /lick spam
I literally can’t stop laughing at this. Open the blinds, go upstairs, get some sun. Do anything that will break the cycle of anger and seething that has made you feel this way lol. I promise there’s not a global conspiracy to take your guns and castrate you that starts with removing the /spit emote lmao
There is no such thing.
