RIP WoW Legion; DoA, WoD 2.0
>game didn't launch yet
>already cut content
JUST
>>341725076
Explain?
>>341725662
Apparently they cut some area
>Thal'dranath will not be part of Legion.
It won't be a reduction in content delivered to players, just that the team had a better and way cooler idea.
>>341725076
What was cut?
>>341725076
>Thal'dranath will not be part of Legion.
haha called it
>>341725863
the second part was also meant to be green texted, it's part of the quote
>>341725863
>>341725937
HAAH
WAAW
IT'S WOD ALL OVER AGAIN WITH CUTTING NETHERSTORM
>>341725076
They say it's getting replaced with "something cooler", but we all know Blizzard.
>>341725867
This is so pathetic, you can tell the game literally went extinct with Cata launch.
>>341725662
They cut Thal'Dranath
To be fair they've officially promised 3 tiers and said that Thal'Dranath was just another elven civilization full of Legion influence and that they have something cooler planned.
Can we trust them? Probably not, it's the same thing they said in WoD when they scrapped Farahlon with the excuse that "it fit the story better"
It's sad because TD is around where the last old god is supposed to be located
>>341725863
>It won't be a reduction in content delivered to players, just that the team had a better and way cooler idea.
if by that they mean that instead of thaldranath there will be a different zone added to the game, that will be about as big, then why didn't they just say they wanted to give it a different name and a different theme?
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that whatever they are gonna add instead of thaldranath, if they add anything, it's gonna be tiny like timeless isle and not as a big as the other zones in legion
>>341725076
Oh fuck off, ungrateful fuck. I dare you to even come close to the amazing job Blizzard is doing. You probably never even have done Archimonde heroic and your gonna complain about something stupid like this
>>341725076
Feel like the class pruning and general dumbing down is by far the worst part of it all, was generally looking forward to it until I saw the changes being made.
Don't give him (you)s boys
>>341726248

>>341725863
The last time these motherfuckers cut a zone to add a better, cooler thing they cut Farahlon and put in Ashran.
>>341726387

You can pug that

>>341726573
>The last time these motherfuckers cut a zone to add a better, cooler thing they cut Farahlon and put in Ashran.
>>341725867
Wait, that's wrong though.
WoD has 3 raid tiers.
>>341726573
ashran was always planned to be in the game together with farahlon, ashran was in for release, farahlon was scrapped way into WoD
they have nothing to do with each other
>>341726720
>the selfie patch is considered tier and cannon
>>341726628
>there is still the same amount of content
you don't know that
you don't know how much content thaldranath would've ended up being and you don't know what they are gonna replace it with
you don't even know IF they are gonna replace it with anything
remember farahlon?
remember karabor and bladespire?
>>341726802
I said "raid tiers", you mongoloid.
Highmaul, Blackrock Foundry and Hellfire Citadel. Can you count?
>>341726720
>3 raid tiers
how it feels to be retarded?
>>341726720
Tier 1: BRF and Highmaul
Tier 2: HFC
What you mean is that it has 3 raids. If you call Highmaul a raid tier, then it was a pretty shitty raid tier, with a very small raid, 7 underwhelming raid bosses and no tier gear.
>>341726839
remember how gorgrond was fully completed in alpha and how they just remade it worse because , fuck you?
>>341726876
highmaul and blackrock foundry are on the same tier dipshit
>>341726876
those aren't raid tiers you mongoloid
those are raids
Highmaul and BRF are one raid tier
just like MSV, HoF and Terrace were one raid tier in MoP
>>341726940
>>341726914
>>341726991
They were released in separate patches (release and 6.1 , with different item level gear.
How the fuck are they on the same tier? How do you decide which tier a raid is on?
>>341727107
BRF wasn't released in 6.1 you asswipe
the raids in MoP had different itemlevel gear too, that doesn't make highmaul its own tier
>>341727107
They were objectively the same tier faggot
>>341725076
I would buy a years subscription if I could play on a legacy vanilla or bc server
But I will never ever re-subsubscribe for a new expac, my last will be MoP
>>341727208
you are either a retard or a troll
jump off a bridge
>>341725863
Just like they had a cooler idea when they cut capitals and just gave generic buildings as a hub.
>>341727180
Yeah, my bad. It wasn't in 6.1.
I guess you decide the raid tier by the literal TIER items that drop there.
Tier 17 in BRF and Tier 18 in HFC.
My bad then.
>>341726217
It's obviously PR speak to make people not cancel their preorders.
Anyone of you autistic junkies that still pay for your WoW drug should kill yourselves because there is literally no excuse you can have for still being subbed after WoD's launch.
>>341727669
We have friends and guilds, not like you'd understand.
>>341727669
>It's obviously PR speak to make people not cancel their preorders
It's PR speak to cancel content they promised? I don't reallly see how that makes sense
When was the best time to get out of WoW again?
>>341727774
They have to say it now otherwise it would fall under false advertising if they launched the game without it and it would be grounds for class action lawsuit.
The PR speak is the "BUT WE HAVE A BETTER IDEA GUIZE" part.
You give bad news, then follow with an empty but vague promise to make up for it. Except it's empty and vague and is not binding in any way so they don't need to do shit (and they won't, same as Cata and WoD).
>>341727868
When Cata came out.
>>341727779
>STOP HAVING FUN
Calm down, I hate Blizzard as much as you do, maybe even more - after all they keep disappointing me more than you. I didn't buy Overwatch, I didn't buy Legacy of the Void, I haven't spent a penny in HotS and I'm playing mostly for garrison gold with time tokens.
That being said. WoW is still a good game, despite the effort Blizzard puts into trying to run in into the ground.
>>341726720
Raid tier's are decided based on the Tier loot that drops, for example most of Karazhan and Gruul's lair/Magtheridon's Lair drops different ilvl equipment (115 and 125) but considering they both drop Tier 4 they are considered on the same tier. It's not that difficult to understand
>it's totally going to be different this time!
>P-PLEASE COME BACK ;_;
>>341727868
After the nerfs in very early Cata.
They are so fucking lazy. I wonder what they even do over there with so many employees.
>>341728001
>WoW is still a good game, despite the effort Blizzard puts into trying to run in into the ground.
Yeah, Farmville and Facebook shit with 0 content at 20$ a month sure is worth it.
Kill yourself you degenerate junkie.
Heck, if I could I'd put you out of your misery myself.
>>341725076
Every game ever made has cut content, you halfwit.
>>341728102
Swimming in money and seeing how much shit they can get away with without the drones complaining.
>Download Pre-patch PTR
>2/3rd of my bars are gone
Nice one.
>>341727607
for one it's the tier gear, but it's also depending on the way blizzard intends it to be
raid tiers have a certain size and they are usually released around the same time, with different raid tiers being about 6 months apart
highmaul and brf weren't released together, but that is because blizzard recently tried to delay raids even more so that they have to put out less content
WoD was really the first time there was such a huge gap between two raids of the same tier, MoP raids were released very close to each other
so this is a new thing and in earlier expansions like cataclysm, you would've seen these multiple raids released all on the same day, usually when the expansion releases
one could argue that highmaul is kind of like a mini-raidtier, but it's a very shitty one
it basically serves as the intro raid to the expansion, like MSV was in MoP and like Emerald Dream will be in Legion
I guess they want people to have a sort of progression within the first raid tier now
>>341727909
>false advertising
No it wouldn't fall under false advertising because it's not something they promised at launch
>>341728103
>20$ a month sure
I understand the foam coming out of your mouth is obscuring your vision.
Also
OW THE EDGE
>>341725867
By what logic does TBC have 4 tiers while WoD only has 2? If Sunwell counts as a seperate tier then so should BRF.
>>341728082
>Early cata
You mean after first week of Cata.
Since they nerfed everything literally week after launch after all the babies whined about dungeons being 2hard.
>>341728202
>What is Euro to Dollar conversion
Stay retarded.
>>341728450
>>What is Euro to Dollar conversion
>Stay retarded.
I meant I'm playing for gold, you fucking cretin. I haven't bought a sub with real money in 6 months.
>>341727180
>>341726914
>>341726940
If classic has 5 "tiers" then WoD has 3 "tiers".
>MC, ZG, BWL, AQ, Nax
>HM, BRF, HFC
>>341728450
I'm pretty sure I remember Blizzard holding their ground about the difficulty in the first month or two of Cata and eventually caved in sometime before the Firelands, Although I might be wrong considering how many years it's been
>>341726217
an adventure rpg set in this world would be sweet
>>341728268
>>341728558
yeah that graphic is bullshit
vanilla: 3 raid tiers
TBC: 3 raid tiers
WotLK: 4 raid tiers (but one was a rehash)
Cataclysm: 3 raid tiers
MoP: 3 raid tiers
WoD: 2 raid tiers
>Tier 1
>Tier 2
>Tier 2.5
>Tier 3
Vanilla should only have 4 Tiers, WoD has 2.
I guess someone counted dungeons sets as a tier.
>>341728678
heroic/dungeon sets are a tier too
>>341728727
Zul'Gurub is considered as Tier 1.5, though since there are two dungeon sets I don't see why you wouldn't include those as part of the progression.
I think the graphic was really getting at major content patches.
>>341728653
I agree
Fuck WoW, I want an open world RPG in Azeroth like TES games
Would probably be impossible to do with todays technology though, but maybe in a few years
>>341728837
>Zul'Gurub is considered as Tier 1.5
How? The only set items were the fucking swords.
>>341726720
>WoD has 3 raid tiers.
if it had 3 raid tiers, why did we burn through them in 6 months, when usually it takes about a year for them to release 3 raid tiers?
why is it that the "3 raid tiers" in WoD had about as many bosses as 2 raid tiers in MoP, Cataclysm, Wrath, TBC or Vanilla?
>>341728854
I forgot the two Fist Weapons, Blizzard didn't give those things to me in the Pre-Patch Appearance thing, it pisses me off.
>>341728678
They are counting the #.5 Tier's as well I believe, like how some items in Sunwell were considered to be Tier 6.5
>>341728596
They nerfed them by 10% after first week and unlocked the dungeon finder (originally the plan was to not unlock dungeon finder until 4.1 launched).
Then when 4.1 launched they remade Zul raids into dungeons that were relatively challenging but nerfed everything else including raids. Then when 4.2 launched they nerfed everything into the ground and made it loot pinata.
So I guess you could make an argument for playing Cata till Firelands launch and dropping it there. Personally I dropped WoW after Dragon Soul since seeing as I already started, might as well finish all the content. Dropped WoW after Deathwing HC and never looked back.
If they ever do legacy realms EXACTLY as they were with no modern bullshit revisions, I might give TBC and WotLK another go but other than that I literally don't care about this game anymore beyond looking at the trainwreck it's become whenever new cut content/fuck up thread on /v/ pops up.
>>341728742
dungeons aren't a raid tier
if they were then every expansion has one more "raid tier" cause every expansion has dungeons
Who gives a shit, exactly?
They told us since the beginning that Thal'dranath was an actual patch-related content, we saw nothing about it but a lame map\figure on the new Broken Isles map.
The same applies to Farahlon.
>HURR DURR THEY'RE CUTTING NEW CONTENT, HELP BLIZZARD IS SHITAAAAAAAAAAAAH OH GOD I'M SO AUTISTIC
If i say that i'm going to punch you in the face, and then i change my mind and instead i kick you in the balls, are you going to bitch at me because i cut your punch-in-the-face content?
Be real, fucking idiots.
I already preordered the collector's edition of Legion, and i can't wait to bash some demon heads in.
>>341728678
A lot of Sunwell items were better than BT, Sunwell was pretty much a new tier even if it didn't come with new tier gear.
>>341728526
Enjoy your farmville you addicted fuck.
>>341728854
there's a 5 piece armor set, so it's like the aq
>>341729073
just because the items are a bit better doesn't make it its own tier
>>341729006
Blizzard loves retards like you, literal braindead drones that can't think for themselves. They laugh at how much shit they can get away with thanks to addicted imbeciles such as yourself.
BUT FRET NOT CHILD, BETTER PLAY MORE FUCKING FACEBOOK GAMES :)
Female Blood Elf Demon Hunter
or
Female Night Elf Demon Hunter?
>>341728883
I think you're barking up the wrong tree. I know WoD is shit. It's not even about the raiding content, because WoD was the first expansion since WotLK I actively raided (and had fun).
However the garrisons.
The fucking garrisons, mate....
>>341729203
>a bit
Some were major improvement, such as the fucking Apolyon.
>>341729261
Option C: Kill yourself you addict.
>>341728951
Ah fair enough, that jogged my memory. I stopped playing WoW sometime during 4.1 when they announced the nerfs for the content in 4.2.
>>341729203
True it makes it a .5 tier, which is why Sunwell was called 6.5 Tier.
>>341729261
If it has to be female, Night Elf. Blood Elf females are anorexic and have crappy animations.
>>341728852
The elder scrolls online just did it
I think it's named One Tamriel
>>341726248
How are blizzdrones still here in 2016? HOW IS YOUR FAITH NOT IN PIECES? YOURE A FUCKING IDIOT FOR SUPPORTING THEM
>>341728727
Actually
Tier 0
Tier .5
Tier 1
Tier 2
Tier 3
FYI vanilla had 5
>>341729153
I will.
You keep on hating video games, trooper. You're doing god's work.
>>341729332
If they only looked like this...
>>341725863
i would kind of appreciate if they announced what else they had in mind, but that would ruin the surprise and break the illusion that they aren't just cutting content i guess
really hope they aren't bullshitting because WoW's going to become a graveyard of subs if they fuck up legion
>>341729396
Addiction, it's a real thing and doesn't apply to just drugs and alcohol you know. Addicts will never admit they're addicted and that they're doing something wrong even when their entire life crumbles all around them.
>>341729313
still doesn't matter
blizzard could make a one boss raid and have it drop items that double the stats on your gear, doesn't make it a new raid tier though
but I think ultimately it's probably better to just count raids and raid bosses instead of raid tiers
it's just that a raid tier is usually associated with about 10 bosses, so counting the number of tiers gives you a rough idea
>i spend 40$ every year or two to witness how badly Blizzard has fucked up their baby this time
the fun of playing the game now is uncovering Blizzard's new changes and additions that don't do jack shit for gameplay as i go along.
it doesn't matter what they do to the game and how long of a break i take, i can play it at the highest levels anytime.
it's a shit game that never dynamically changes gameplay, i think the biggest gameplay changes have been the death grip/leap of faith/deterrence changes.
i think they're trying with the Demon Hunter double jump this time. being able to cast while moving was a good one also.
>>341729251
I'm having fun with their games.
What's wrong with that?
Are you jelly because i can have fun with games and you can't?
>>341729465
I play more videogames monthly than you do yearly, because unlike you I'm not addicted to a monthly extortion racket with a facebook skin.
>>341729396
Because the core game is still so good and fun that every expansion release is still super fun for at least a few months before you stop caring and quit again until the next one.
>>341729506

Yeah, sure. Having fun is so addictive. Call the police. They need professional help to stop having fun and be like ME.
>>341729548
>>341729616
>>341729643
Thanks for proving what a shiteater you are.
And WoW would be a decent game if it was "merely" a rehash like CoD. At least CoD doesn't rape its mechanics and cut content like WoW does.
>inb4 you call me a CoD drone
I don't even play CoD, or Battlefield, or LoL or DotA. But keep on eating shit, you're clearly having the time of your life.
>>341729616

Pathetic.
>>341725863
>>341725662
It's literally Faralon all over again.
Entire zone that was planned from the start, that's been in the alpha files from the start, is being cut for time.
>>341729396
Because I'm not allowing myself to become overhyped by nostalgia-based expectations. I know what to expect, and I know that the so-called Vanilla-WotLK golden era was mostly an illusion.
>>341729471
If they would look like that, I would still be playing.
>>341729643
accept that you are not really addicted to fun if you have a wow addiction
back in the day that is, today no one has this anymore
back in the day, that meant neglecting other things to the extent where it was bas for you, for your social life, for your hygene, for your health
not because you just has so much fun playing but because some things were just time-consuming and required you to be online a lot
whether it was raid preparation or raiding itself
that wasn't always time enjoyed
that was often time that you spent being frustrated and stressed out
>>341729705
I will call you an autistic idiot who can't accept the fact that different people have different tastes and opinions, and no matter how hard you slam your feet on the ground like a crying toddler, i will not magically stop to have fun with WoW and its expansions.
Be mad all you want, i don't care.
>>341729757
but what's wrong with having fun with your sister in bed?
what does it hurt you what I do with my sister in bed?
maybe you're just jealous you don't have such a great sister
we are at least having fun, hater
>>341729825
But that's fake, anon.
Stop lying to prove your argument.
We had nothing about Thal'dranath but a shitty outline on a map.

I literally log in to do a raid or two a week and I play other games 6 hours a day or more besides that.
But yeah, ok - I'm addicted to WoW.I will on full WoW mode be when Legion comes out.
>>341729972
It's truly marvellous to see such underage idiots bitch and cry about WoW players.
>>341730117

quite the opposite
the argument was about how nowadays it's hard to be addicted to wow, with there being nothing to do and all
>Game will still sell like hotcakes
>Will still be the best MMO on the market
Oh well better luck next time /v/
>>341730316
I agree completely. I'm bored out of my mind nowadays, so I don't play it besides raid days.
However when Legion comes out I will be playing it non-stop for few weeks at least.
>>341730329
Of course, anon.
In the end, all these mean words and crying butthurt will be completely worthless, but lest shall we all ruin this small autistic bubble these idiots project on themselves, for not "eating what i call shit because of my /v/ opinion".

this is what's considered the standard. vanilla can be counted as 4 or 5 - it technically had 4 actual raid tiers, but enough raid content to constitute 5 tiers. everything else is correct as it is on the picture.
>>341730798
so even worse than missions were in WoD
now you even have to do it to unlock new content
>>341730489

>>341730889
>vanilla
if it was 4 tiers, you wouldn't have called AQ40 tier 2.5
you would have called it tier 3 and naxx tier 4
that would've made 4 tiers
calling it tier 1, 2, 2.5 and 3 makes it 3 tiers
because you counted to 3
at best you could say it's 3 raid tiers + a minitier
>tbc
same thing

>>341725867

It was the best, why did they fuck it over so much for fucking trial?!
>>341731335
it's still a rehash
it could've been played by 0 people, it doesn't matter
also nice hyperbole
why hasn't there ever been a rehash of sunwell? it was played by just as many
maybe because the idea of rehashing stuff is awful
sunwell in wrath at level 80 was harder than the rehashed naxx
it was a shadow of its former self
>>341730798
>Blizzcucks are this pathetic
I wish I made this up
>>341731508
>why hasn't there ever been a rehash of sunwell? it was played by just as many
There should be, it's called legacy servers.
I'm perfectly fine with them rehashing content 99% of their player base has never experienced. In fact I would even encourage them to do so as filler in between expansions.
Blizzard created a decade's worth of content and with every expansion they make all of that content completely irrelevant. In order for the game to survive they need a model that allows for that content to stay in the rotation of things they players can experience.
>>341731508
they did rehash zul'aman and zul'gurub (although in a 5 man format) so it might come in the future
Yeah everyone, WoW is dead, you better start playing FF, please.
please
How can anyone be addicted to ""WoW"" in 2016?
I still play from time to time, but it's rather a matter of
>bored as fuck, might as well do some brainless shit in WoW
instead of the
>holy fucking shit I NEED to keep playing, I want to skip work, go home and do nothing but playing all fucking day
I felt in vanilla/BC and on Nost.
>>341731829
>There should be, it's called legacy servers.
you are a retard
legacy servers wouldn't rehash sunwell
I'm talking about taking sunwell and putting it into the game at level 110 or 120, like they did with naxx for 80
what you are proposing has nothing to do with it
>'m perfectly fine with them rehashing content 99% of their player base has never experienced.
you can experience it just fine
have you never experienced sunwell? why? it's there, just go in there
if you're saying you want to experience it in a raid instead of doing it solo at level 100, then all I can say is that naxxramas was such an easy raid, and that a sunwell rehash would be so easy as well, that it would only spit on the original experience
they should do new raids instead of pissing on old ones
ITT: nostfags and FFXIV fags
>>341732424
There are plently of Blizzcucks here as well, don't kid yourself
>>341725867
>those Burning Crusade "tiers"
lmao, tier 4 had 3 bosses, and that sunwell "tier" had 6 bosses
>>341732092
they did with zulaman but zulgurub had entirely new bosses and new things in the dungeon
so ZG wasn't a rehash, more like a remake of the dungeon
rehash to me is when they take the raid like naxx and just tune the numbers, and make minor changes, like switch out mograine for the baron
I like the Titan forged and mythic upgrades being always a thing that'll be a neat surprise when it happens
>>341732569
>Karazhan had 14 bosses alone
I thought the WoDbabby shit was just a meme but it's actually true. These "people" now make up the majority of wow players.
Neck yourself my man.
>>341725076
Who would play this shit of a game ? It died at Cataclysm and has been becoming more and more bland, soul-less, boring and plain retarded at each new expansions since then.
>>341732340
I think one of the biggest indicators that the MMO market has changed is the fact that no one throws their lives away for these games anymore. That should probably be a good thing, but they're so casual-friendly and lacking in immersive content, it's hard to stay interested for more than a few hours a day.
>>341732354
>you can experience it just fine
No you can't.
I'm not just proposing legacy servers as the only options blizzard has. This conversation is much larger than just rehashing raids and sticking them into new expansions. I'm talking about various different ways that could create a system that allows content they spent millions of dollars creating to not go to waste. If that means using old raids as shitty little filler in between expansions then it's better than absolutely nothing at all.
In an ideal world you would be able to experience that content on a possessive legacy realm, though.
>>341732871
Kara bosses don't count as raid bosses. They were simpler than most dungeon bosses are now.
>>341731146
The last class just did crazy mobility, better than this dick hunter shit that's for sure.
Reading between the lines in recent Q&As, they cut Faralon (which would most likely have been the Timeless Isle to Tanaan's Isle of Thunder, or vice versa) because they thought that since they had a bigger team they would be able to ship Legion faster (I'd imagine the original goal was Q1 '16) and finally get closer to their stated goal of shipping one expansion per year.
Then they finally realized that while growing their team let them ship *more* content, it didn't really let them ship content *faster*. Hopefully this means that for the first time in almost a fucking decade we'll have a content cycle that is actually evenly paced across two years (since they've realized that one per 12-18 months is a pipe dream) rather than 2-4 patches over a year followed by a year of fucking nothing. But I wouldn't count on that until it actually happens.
>blizzard literally print money with Hearthstone
>OW is shaping up to be one of the biggest games, especially in the east
how long until they pull the plug on WoW, or at least stop sacrificing manpower to make new content for WoW
>>341733191
>raidbosses don't count as raidbosses because I said so
Just like the other Anon said, hang yourself
>>341728103
>20$ a month
It's actually 15.
>>341733327
Why would they pull the plug on yet another money maker?
>>341733327
>or at least stop sacrificing manpower to make new content for WoW
>WoW
>new content
There is a reason why the game lost over half its playerbase in not even 12 months.
>>341733327
blizzdrones still buy the new xpac with sub so that's easy money, 3 million draenor sales on release + sub jew money. They never stop when they get bored of it after two weeks
>>341733375
>14 tank and spank fights with, at best, one "move/don't move when you see this" mechanic
omg such content such value
>>341733327
neither Hearthstone, nor OW requires a lot of effort to keep "fresh"
that's the real genius behind them
creating new cards takes like 2 designer + 1 code monkey + 3-4 artists
overwatch you've already payed for, they don't have to rush anything (and additional content will mostly be new heroes and skins, and believe me those don't require much manpower)
it's riot's jewish system turned up to 11, with actual competence behind it
>>341733191
get your bait and gtfo.
Those bosses are better than anything in warlords of draenor not because the fights are better but because everything felt more important as the rest of the game was better. Regardless the best bossfights from kz was better than the best fights of cata,mists and wod.
How can anyone play this? WHAT IS YOUR EXCUSE HOW CAN YOU STILL GIVE THEM MONEY AFTER WOD I DONT UNDERSTAND THIS
>>341734020
Its better than other MMOs and it's fun
>WoD 2.0 ALL OVER AGAIN
WoWFAGS CONFIRMED ON SUICIDE WATCH
>>341733902
>Those bosses are better than anything in warlords of draenor not because the fights are better but because everything felt more important as the rest of the game was better. Regardless the best bossfights from kz was better than the best fights of cata,mists and wod.
This is why I stopped taking "WoW is dead" faggots seriously. Unless you can prove that you killed mythic Blackhand when it was current content, this statement is completely laughable.
>>341734020
It's called cuckolding and some people are into it.
>>341734020
I'm only gonna play it for two weeks just like WoD, I'm not a blizzdrone, but damn I'm bored. I'm ready for fall games and this shit comes out in august
>>341734201
>mythic
Why would anyone with half a brain waste time killing the same boss he already defeated on three other difficulty settings before now with even more HP and a slapped on mechanic?
If I want to get cucked with shitty, literally rehashed "content" I play Diablo 3.
>>341734020
Because as bad as it is, the first few weeks is always the best part of an expansion.
>>341734428
What an embarrassment you are.
>>341734648
Enjoy the Blizzcock anon. Keep eating shit eventually you ll die from shit poisoning
Wait I'm lost.
Is this expansion also set in the past? or alternate dimension or whatever?
>>341734428
>why would i want to kill the real version of a boss? i'm happy with the casual version
fucking kill yourself
>>341735073
Lore doesn't exist in WoW anymore. Stop thinking about it.
>>341735149
>>341734648
>being fine with Blizzard shitting out the very same boss four times with slightly tuned mechanics instead of designing four different bosses with unique fights like it was back in TBC
Nu-males and Blizzcucks pay for this every month.
I wish I made this up.
>>341735073
It's set in the present in the main timeline.
>>341735342
It's funny because mythic Archimonde, Blackhand and Imperator each have more mechanics than entire TBC raid tiers.
>>341735153
>Lore doesn't exist in WoW anymore.
If only it got a clean death..
>>341735493
Mythic Imperator was a fucking monster. People were actually popping Bloodlust twice during that fight on progression, it was insane.
>>341729396

Feels good to not have terminal autism
>>341735921
Terminal autism is literally the only excuse to still play wow in 2016.

>>341733683
Lmao he thinls overwatch is going to ever get new heroes
>>341730889
You're forgetting tier 0 and .5 You're not getting into MC without that tier.
>>341731132
No Naxx is tier 3 by trying to say otherwise makes me feel you didn't play the game during vanilla.
It's 4 tiers because you have 0 and .5 (dungeon set and quest upgrade) to be good in MC and get tier 1. BWL is 2 and Naxx is 3.
>>341733191
Holy fucking retard bait. Confirmed for not playing kara when it first launched shit was hard as fuck. Even when you got back SSC/TK and were going back for the weekly kara night you still couldn't have people being idiots.
>>341736651
DELETE THIS
>>341734020
Because even at it's worst WoW is the best on the market.
>>341731132
you call aq40 tier 2.5 because that's what people called the item set it dropped.
aq item sets didnt have the proper quality modeling that tier 1, 2 and 3 sets had, and the aq sets only had 5 pieces as opposed to the proper tier sets which had 8 pieces, so people called them tier 2.5 sets.
aq40 is still counted as its own full raid tier - its size and difficulty qualify for that, and it was added in its own major content patch.
same for tbc - sunwell didnt have its own item sets, but its item level and difficulty is way above tier 6, and it also came in its own dedicated content patch. that's why it is considered its own raid tier.
highmaul and BRF on the other hand simply constitute one raid tier. they were developed together and implemented together, one of them was simply time-gated and made available later than the other. similar to how mount hyjal and black temple are counted as one tier instead of two even though they became available at different times.
>>341736651
>you still couldn't have people being idiots
Idiots back then meant "people who move during Flame Wreath". The bar for player competence was much lower back in TBC. Even early Cata heroic 5-mans were way more demanding on players than Kara bosses.
>enhancement shaman has cool animations
>actually feel like a battle mage now
>a couple raid wide/party buffs/enemy debuffs from enhance will make them mandatory until blizzard removes them
>wod hunter and mage all over again
>>341736830
Sure it was, WoDcuck
>>341736830
>Even early Cata heroic 5-mans were way more demanding on players than Kara bosses.
even TBC heroic 5mans were more demanding on players than kara bosses. kara was a pretty easy raid overall.
>tfw hated WoD but still am going to play Legion
Who else /addicted/ here?
>>341736982
Well melee classes are finally getting good animations. That's enough reason for me to want to play. Melee not feeling impactful always bugged me. They seem to have added weight to melee now.
>just finished prepping my wife's bull for tonight
>get back to my rig and check this thread
>Nostfags and assholes shit up the thread AGAIN
How the FUCK do we stop them, bros? THEY CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT
>>341736982
im playing because i made a promise to someone.
>>341736982
Co-worker is buying the expansion for me and I have some tokens lined up so there isn't a reason for me not to at least try it out. I'd like to stay a healer but new Paladin changes to mastery are too weird for me and Melee Hunters look too much fun.
>>341737224
Playing warrior has never looked better that's for sure.
>>341736982
I don't feel addicted, I just feel like I've accepted WoW as part of my life. I don't care what the next content patch or expansion is going to be, because I know I will play it regardless. And that's what the whole guild feels like. ~20 people I interact with on a daily basis that I've never seen before in my life and they're better friends to me than people I know IRL.
Also to people arguing whether WoD had 2 or 3 raid tiers - go fuck yourself with your semantics. The fact remains that you raided Highmaul until patch 6.1, then you raided BRF until patch 6.2, and now you're raiding HFC until Legion. That's 3 distinct content periods.

Why do I still bother with this shithole?
>>341738243
There is nothing wrong with still playing WoW, especially if you don't have any real friends. But please, don't get pathetic enough and actually defend WoD.
Just don't.
>>341738312
Why don't you fuck back off to the official forums and/or mmo-champion?
>>341725076
Every single expansion have had content cut in them.
>>341738507
It's funny you think you are actually superior to those places. You are literally trudging through a puddle of wet horseshit and being proud of it.
>>341738507
>get btfo
>"f-fuck off"
>>341736830
No raids have gotten so easy it's not even funny
I just did BRF without even trying like literally dead last in dps and didn't know a single fight and didn't die it's fucking pathetic.
>>341738696
congrats, you did content way behind the bar and on the easiest difficulty
proud of you champ
>>341738312
>Forums and other sites are eating up Blizzard's lies like a bunch of morons
>The brave, intelligent denizens of /v/ - Video Games can see straight through Blizzard's facade
I'll see it when I believe it. If you expect anything other than complete failure from the WoW team after WoD, you're a fool.
>>341731132
confirmed for neither having played classic or tbc. opinion discarded
>>341738862

>>341738862
how am I a fool if I'm bored and there's nothing else that comes out until one month later for Final Fantasy, this is a good filler game. I'm definitely not gonna play this shit after september
>>341730889
You're forgetting Ruby sanctum as T10.5
>>341738421
>defend WoD
I'm not, and I don't need to. They experimented a lot with world content and failed in pretty much every way.
As a raider I was pretty happy with the expansion overall, as the raids were of superior quality. Mythic Imperator is probably in my top 3 bosses I've ever progressed and killed.
I give zero fucks about PvP and non-raiding content. In fact, I don't understand people who play the game and don't raid mythic or do high-end pvp.
>>341739475
>i don't care about pvp, but i don't understand why people don't do it
?????
>>341739475
COMMUNITY, WORLD PVP!!!!!!!! AAAAA QUEUE SIMULATOR
>>341738835
I did highmaul at launch and it was still piss easy.
>>341739590
I meant to say that I personally don't do PvP, but I respect high-end PvP as a justifiable reason to play the game.
>people are posting this like its news
you retards realize the last build this zone was even on the map was in november right?
>>341739735
And I'm sure you did it on at least heroic
You know, normal difficulty, not looking for retards or renamed flex

>>341737824
I play Priest. As long as at least one of the healing specs is decent I'm good.
>>341738696
>I beat DMC3 on the easiest difficulty! It's not hard at all!
>>341740939
>how could you be happy with raiding
Raid boss design is vastly superior now compared to what it used to be.
>>341741015
Holy is fun, disc is dead though. RIP best healer in game. Shielding is currently dead. We'll see if it makes it to live.
BTW if anyone wants to try out what the classes feel like, legion is on the PTR withno content.It's free and requires no sub.
>>341741185
That's disappointing. I was really looking forward to that Disc artifact.
let me predict how legion will go:
>start a 'legendary' quest in new area
>'cinematic' quest line that aims to be as epic and edgy as possible
>start your garri- er 'class hall' missions
>kill rare mobs for garrison res- um 'order resources'
>send out your follo- woops 'champions' for missions
>expa legen- oh 'artifact' will require mats from npc missions, 4 weeks worth of RNG mats from raid bosses
>promised patch content cut 'for something better(hint: its nothing)'
>raid full of recoloured models with same animations and skeletons and repurposed mechanics
how accurate am i
>>341725076
I mean they said they have a cooler idea instead of more elf ruins.......But this is Blizzard we're talking about. So it's probably troll ruins instead.
>>341741185
>disc is dead though
Finally. They fucking infuriated me when I was raiding in MoP. Doing fucking Heroic SoO progression and these faggots could do nearly 60k DPS and keep up with my 300k healing at the same time doing nothing but spamming smite/penance and giving shields.
>>341740646ESOEven if you don't think it's a good game it's no worse than WoW and still has a community
>>341741993
Does it have 20+ man competitive raiding?
If not I don't give a shit about it.

man this feels so god damn rewarding
>>341741554
I'd be okay with that.
>>341741370
I'd be able to tell you.
If I was in the beta.
Oh and you get the Artifact like 20 minutes in. The grinding is to get Artifact Power, which comes from pretty much everything you do.
Follower missions are more or less to unlock more quests or get a bit of Artifact Power.
The quests in WoW have hardly been edgy before, and what I've seen wouldn't be called edgy either.
And when have Raids ever been anything but recolored models? Closest I can see to that is Vanilla. Evem HFC uses new models for stuff.
>nostalgia cucks actually shitting on current raid design on neo WoW
It's literally the ONLY THING modern WoW does right.
Newflash WoW was always a casual MMO, you just thought it was hard since the bar for a decent player back than was significantly lower and there was significantly more grind back than.
Even top end raids from vanilla/tbc admit that raid design gets better with each xpac.
>>341742984
wrong thread god damnit
>>341742307
Raids are 12-person butraids aren't the 'endgame'. It's more like Runescape in that the new quests and zones are the content. There's an occasional new raid but not often
>>341743328
That Draenei looks like Tim Buckley in his comics
>>341738243
>I just feel like I've accepted WoW as part of my life
that's how addicts feel
source: someone who used a lot of addictive drugs
I'm ex-vanilla, is it okay to play on trial so I can finally play a goblin and solo some legacy content as well as see the new zones /v/?
I kinda want to resub but there is no way im paying that fucking sub fee. I had 300k gold in my account when i logged off. Is there any way of getting that gold token without paying the sub fee in order to play to buy it?
>>341743886
>tfw they got HUMAN'D.
>you will never fuck an exotic race from warcraft.
>>341743886
I think you can buy from the character select but I never had to test it out as I kept a token on a level 10 person.
>>341743886
You might have to buy 1 month sub time. 300k gold will buy you 3 tokens on EU or about 6 tokens on US.
