I haven’t played in several years, I am a big fan. I fell away from the game because the game makes no sense. I feel like a blind puppy and I need everyone to guide me.
I install the game, and I’m unhappy because instead of playing normally, it’s asking me to do a character upgrade. Philosophically this is low quality game design so I already want to leave. Anyways I upgrade, I’m a human paladin, now I am fully purple with a purple hammer. Again, I want to leave the game.
I get into the game, I kill 10 minutes looking for my mount tab. I can’t find it, I press every key on my keyboard and nothing. I ask a stranger, he says click the horse button. Oh okay. . . I’m really unhappy that my mount was removed from my action bars and I had to find it in a new UI.
So now I don’t understand at all what to do, I’m like level 36 or w.e, no quests are around me. I’m “in stormwind”, the new stormwind design is extremely bad and the graphics are bad. I’m glad I have a flying mount because I want to leave.
Okay so I-don’t-understand x 10 what do I do? I talk to chromie, no I don’t want to do that. I want to leave the game, it is given me an out of body experience. Everything is foreign, I find the water fountain in Stormwind, and like nobody is there. There are two people with mounts and the mounts are so big is takes up all the space. Everyone is blasting off into space with flying mounts. The game has no life it seems like everyone is behaving like they would if they were on the streets of Toronto, not in a fantasy game. I just want to leave.
I alt f4 out of the game. I don’t want to learn more zones I don’t even know where I am inside Stormwind.
I think if I were to be teleported to a Tokyo subway station I could probably orient myself and get home faster than figuring out what to do in this game. I just don’t get why even the talent tree is bogus looking — my brain switched off. Why is literally not 1 thing familiar.
I could complain literally all day about my first 5 minutes in this game.
Great thinking!
