What’s a conspiracy theory you have about the game?

The devs purposely make changes, or add things, ppl don’t like so they can “fix” it later and call it “listening to the players”.

Blizzard purposely holds back basic additions the community have been asking for since the beginning of an expansion in order to release them in a future patch to make the new patch seem exciting cough cough flying cough .

They made human males look awful just to spite me and force me to play elves.

My theory? The majority of people who seriously play this game are bitter, isolated, and angry, thus some of the most dedicated forum complainers you’ll ever witness.

This is a pretty widely believed one apparently: Battle for Azeroth wasn’t initially meant to be the narrative dumpster fire it became but part way through the development, the sexual harassment investigation began and Afrasiabi knew he was going to get screwed by it. So he wanted to take WoW down with him and got the team to rewrite BfA to make sure it did everything wrong.

It sounds little crazy but it would explain soooooooooooooooooooo much.

They do action people (not just squelch) based solely on the number of reports.

I’m not saying it’s every time nor that it’s the majority of the time, just that it does happen despite what the people on the CS forum claim.

They only eased the transmog restrictions on weapons because a Demon Hunter-playing dev realized he couldn’t use his sweet new class-exclusive legendary appearance with the fist weapons he was getting in BfA.

That Tinker was going to be released in BfA as a Gnome and Goblin class but due to some internal decision, it was turned into Junkyard Tinkering.

Kind of breaks my heart to think that it could’ve been the case. All those awesome weapons, devices and that jetpack.

I heard the same thing about SL. How the narrative of SL was changed like 3 months prior to release. There are some leaks of what the story was going to be and it seems 1000% better

Thorium ore is radioactive. When WoW finally ends all living things die from radiation poisoning. And The Forsaken inherit the earth.

Many changes to classes and systems between expansions are done by team leads convincing the financial people that it’s necessary and therefore keeping their department’s funding and staffing level in place.

It’s less conspiracy and more an observation of corporate politics where you have different departments competing for resources.

The devs have basically given up and are doing the bare minimum to keep milking the game as long as possible, sticking to formulaic approaches instead of trying to actually go back to the era when the game was at its peak.

Oh, wait you said conspiracy theories not the truth…

Wow is a dead game, but they made us think that it is not by populating the game with bots instead of players. The real players are mostly spending their time complaining in this forum. :wink:
