Who in the world is writing this story?

wow needs dialogue like the departed, if it did I would follow the story like white on rice

I honestly think it’s the voice acting. In my head before every quest had audio I could allow my imagination to tie inflection and tone to the sense of menace or threat I felt it deserved, but to me most of the voice acting sounds so friendly, unthreatening, and toned to more innocent minds.

The script/language isn’t that different, the images are the same in tone and violence, but the voices just feel too divorced from the sense of danger, to happy for world that is under constant threat of extinction.

When I read quests I could adjust for this, with the forced voice overs not so much. Really started to feel this in SL.

Anduin did a Luke Skywalker

there’s a team of monkeys working round the clock in the basement of blizzard hq on wow’s story.

im completely fine with a whole expansion about dragons being directed at the younger players, its good for the game and its good for the youth.

How does it make you feel to know younger people don’t want to play retail WoW when their favorite streamers (incels as I call them) are playing Classic Hardcore?

dude…the story is cringe. You and I both know that even the way you described that event is way more intense than it actually was

The subs say otherwise

Blizzard’s “dark story” writers are on the Diablo IV team. The opening cinematic for that was really quite terrifying.

I’m interested to see how padded subs are solely because of the couple of different classic standalones. I’m sure it’s not majority or super close to it, but especially taking into account what most players are watching on Twitch(classic), it is "sub"stantial.

I’d like to know where you got this information?

DF is 40% off and its not Christmas… I really don’t think the majority of WoWs’ playerbase received this expansion very well - we will find out with the next expansion(or new company) how they will combat this. The WoW forums here are all people who would play this game to no end if it was a Diablo Immortal ripoff, just because it’s WoW. You aren’t going to get very many opinions from people who have left temporarily or permanently here.

This is the first time since like Wrath days I have had people openly still playing Reeetail WoW but not purchased the new expac.

Yea and I mean, back then it took weeks to level up… I could get to max level in less than a day if I wanted to now. There was actual content for you back then lmao

I agree with you 100% but anytime you make that comment here, the WoW/Blizz can do no wrong brigade have to explain to you how speed running the same dungeons over and over is content.

And to them I shall say:

I love WoW myself, and have been here since 2005. We need to stop defending a company that has done a complete 360 within the past 12 years, then maybe they’ll pull their heads out of their rear ends and put some effort into their expansions.

I asked them… kidding, the internet. There are no official numbers but i think its peak was 12 million and last official count was below 5 million. According to logs they seem low. I am not saying the game is dying but people are not playing as much. And it ain’t “they got older and got jobs”, please, they’d still play if they wanted. You don’t just lose over 10 million people like that. Especially basement dwellers (edit: i shouldn’t of said that last part about the basement dwellers, sorry)

You do realize that WarCraft III had a power of friendship ending, yes?

No I don’t explain how. And the factions teaming up isn’t Friendship is Magic ™
