What Casuals (99.9%) Want

braindead is good.
no performance pressure, no people flinging their attitudes around, just go from place to place, chillin and reaping the rewards.

lots of people clearly enjoy the more relaxed environment, because there’s a whole lot of people participating in it.

‘Casual’ is a point of view. I consider myself casual and I want: lots of world content, haven’t raided since LFR Emerald Nightmare, and vaguely think I did a couple of mythic zero dungeons with guildies in BFA.

casuals all want different things, which is why it’s hard for them to narrow down any one game mode to keep “99%” of the playerbase happy.

that’s why mythic raiding is such an easy investment for them. it’s very easy to target what that player base wants to keep them subbed.

You do realize the OP is asking for hard mode world content right?

Citation needed.

Ps 60% of people had current raid achievement in 9.2 meaning the majority raid at some level.

At least we agree you don’t need high end gear.

My guess is that they have a character named “Casuals” and is speaking for them. The 0.01 percent missing is due to making the argument more legit like that fifth dentist that never agrees with other four.

people can’t even settle on what the definition of “casual” is.

as a result, it’s impossible to make any claims on what casuals want.

lol what?
the quantity of people in the world, doing stuff.

“raid at some level” ?
buying a carry doesn’t exactly count as raiding.

It’s also why I’m huffing copium about Mythic Mythic Plus after Blizzard has said they’ve identified that a sizable chunk of players enjoy high-end M+ progression beyond the point of loot rewards. That they know players enjoy a challenge and pushing for prestige.

Granted it doesn’t sound like they have plans for season 3 but we may see some big waves season 4.

I mean it’s time spent playing the game. The content you do doesn’t define if you’re a casual or not.

Again citation needed

Lol at trying to imply that over half the playerbase are buying boosts.

Just because you dislike raiding doesn’t mean the majority don’t.

No it’s not. Casual is based on time spent playing the game.

“Hardcore casuals” (hardcore world quest Andies) are like the dumbest self-proclaimed demographic. It boggles my mind that anyone dumping 40 hours a week into world quests would think that is how the majority play WoW.

40% of players attain AOTC. Twice a week Heroic raiders are the norm, not Andies dumping 40 hours into world quests, lol.

no its not that is only a part of it. its how you spend your time in the game. do you spend it pushing the hardest content in the game and min maxing gear or do you spend it running circles around something in val while your normal raid is starting late due to people trickling in. basically casual and hardcore are mindsets in the game and its based upon what you want in the game. you could spend 80 hours a week in game and not accomplish anything other that talking in trade chat.

Casual here. I just want darksouls elden ringborne. I want story, I want environmental storytelling, I want story you have to piece together with nothing but context clues, and I want to earn it by not aoeing groups of mobs while coming out of it with 100% health and mana.

It kills me everytime someone makes that argument or when they say you can’t be a casual and do 20+ keys or mythic raid.

Thinking “casuals” are the 99.9% will never not be funny to me.

Also, what version of “Casual” are we using here? Because there’s the correct one, and then there’s the GD one, but you seem to be under the impression that casual=bad.

Is casuals a derogatory term, or is it more ambiguous?

Ahh, the classic: “I want this, so all people who are also < descriptor > must also want this” claim from OP.

All of us Casuals are different. You’re best off speaking for yourself and what you want because I don’t care for quite a bit of what you are proposing.
