WoW is too difficult

Lol, a warrior pointing their finger at easy classes

WoW’s biggest demographic would be 18-28 or so.

Most people stop playing MMOs as they get older and have more responsibilities and less free time. It’s just life my dude.

Like I said, play WoW as long as you want, there ain’t no age limit, but have the self awareness to recognize that the game is made for young people.

I think that’s your issue, your circumstances changed, not the game.

i don’t think it’s too difficult i just think it doesn’t cater much to casual base like us. who work, got kids/pets, etc… people say well just play casually but it isn’t always fun doing just LFR, dailies, low keys if any, random bg’s etc… some of the harder content i did do before or want to do takes time especially to gear.

used to play another game where it was more linearer progression and it worked because you had to do older raids just to get better gear even today that game kind of makes you do them for better gear but they added it into it’s normal gameplay you can always skip it and will be fine but really is no point to skip it takes maybe 10 minutes to do and gives a DPS increase.

Hey! It’s Garmuck.

What gold?? It made of the rock.

That’s nonsense. You can absolutely be a casual player and do more than auto-win queued content.

M+ accommodates casual players very well with short duration and difficulty that fits anyone.

Normal and heroic raid also extremely casual friendly with flex sizes and reasonable mechanics.

LOL, my comment was about the player Blizzard caters to.

Maybe it’s because you’re not trying hard enough? :dracthyr_shrug:

No, I don’t check the forums every day, and his name isn’t familiar to me. The one person who is to me the most horrible troll, instigator, and is so miserable in his life who does post to inflame the players is always level 10 and his name starts with a T. I’ll remember the G name and add it to my list as I’ve seen a few post about it here.
Thanks for the info. I don’t want to support or defend any trolls.

There has to be a way for blizzard to get their forum into the 20th century.

To me even if there is a person who is considered a known troll, then say, for example I’m looking at the forum, at the list of new posts, I happen to see a “known troll’s” name on the side somewhere. Wouldn’t it be stalkerish behavior just because I saw the person’s name to go to where he/she posted and flagged them?
I consider that stalking/harassment.

If someone doesn’t like the person, why go out of the way to flag them?
That’s problematic and in my opinion wrong no better than the troll.
Oh well, I guess if this forum had no drama, it would disappear.

This statement was just false from the get-go.
Sorry I have not read all replies in the thread;

But WoW became big because it was easy.
It catered to the ultra casual.
It was all about Gear —> 3 mechanics (one often being resistance gear) → Rotation of 3-4 buttons, while tanking was “Face butt this way” + “Taunt when X”, and healing was “Keep people alive by pressing buttons.”

It was really easy, and that is what made it boom.
Now, it is catered to the top 5%.
It’s necessary to have proper addons, proper keybinds, and then on top of it: Knowledge, to progress — and THEN gear… … and then you need your surrounding to have all that too.

So, TLDR:
WoW was easy, and thats what made it popular. ANYONE could sit down and play it.

all the people who cried leveling was too hard laughing from the maw

Exactly how many buttons does a level 10 even HAVE?

I personally have no problems with my buttons. You’ve got to be trolling.

It has never been hard to execute mechanically:
Only tedious, boring, drawn out, taking too long; insert whatever of “Time consuming”-idea here for people who have little time.

Of course its easy to say that in 2023. People did NOT say that in 2004. They didn’t even get to 60 half the time. Maybe out of boredom and not difficulty. Maybe out of exploring and not difficulty. But I knew people that sucked at dungeons and were never good at them because they were considered difficult then. Maybe that is not YOUR experience. But it is most certainly mine. You may have beat every dungeon and raid you came across back then. But every one I got into took forever and people were never experienced. It was a crap show. Way worse than now. I don’t know a specific reason why, but I do know people complained about the games difficulty. 2007 they complained. 2009 they complained. 2013 they complained. 2023 they complain. That’s been my experience.

I had a 13 button rotation but replaced it with a macro so now just hit one button over and over. Much better.
