Enough to pay attention to the updates.

Hopefully you can gear yourself up through professions as well, none of that THREE CRAFTED PIECES bullshit they pulled in WoD. Just let me farm and craft a good set of gear so I can repeat the process each time a new tier unlocks and make it profession quests to unlock the new recipes.

The reveal was a yawnfest. I know this because I was watching it. It was around 1 hour 40ish minutes, the YouTube version was cut to around 40 minutes to cut out all the shots of people being unimpressed and actually yawning on camera. After the wet fart that was WoD, this expansion looks LESS promising than WoD pre-release.
As with usual Blizz releases, content will get reduced in size and quality as we near the launch date. There are so many different options out there, but of course you'll have the 'hardcore' crowd who will shout you down for not having a perfect endgame that does *everything* WoW does but better.
I haven't touched MMOs since WoD's launch and hellfire citadel.

Or you could go into trade and vendoring, and pay your sub with gold and never have to spend a dime on the game ever again, minus expansion packs.

And wait several months after they drop, so the expansion is dirt cheap and all the dumb bullshit is dealt with.

>>322367113
Garrison Missions you can go and do yourself, meaning RNG won't fuck you in the ass and it gets you to get the fuck out there and do something.

Artifacts are one of the best things being added to WoW, but I wholeheartedly agree that using major lore weapons and giving them to everyone is stupid. On the flipside, I always thought shit like Ashbringer was retarded and stupid looking anyway, and everyone getting asshurt because a toy sword is now used by everyone somehow is "immersion breaking" (immersion isn't even possible anymore these days anyway). Most people are going to mog over the lame skins anyway. The only thing that sucks about artifacts is that it limits some choice in spec playstyles.
>>
>>322367406

So you can have yellow Ashbringer, Blue Ashbringer, Red Ashbringer, Purple Ashbringer, Green Ashbringer, Black Ashbringer, White Ashbringer, Viridian Ashbringer, Cyan Ashbringer, Pink Ashbringer, Brown Ashbringer, Orange Ashbringer, Golden Ashbringer, Silver Ashbringer, etc.

How's that different from everyone using the same sword or staff from the latest raid?

I don't like the fact that they're just handing out lore weapons to players either, but your argument is complete shit.

You can still transmog the weapon, and lots of people probably will. Even if you don't want to transmog, you have shitloads more variety than you would have if you were using the weapons for the current raiding tier, because there's normally only 2 or 3 weapons for you in each tier, at best.

Back in Wotlk, you didn't even have freedom of choice because transmog didn't exist. Endgame players all looked the exact fucking same. How's that supposed to be better than what we have now?

Your argument is complete shit, did you even think that through? You're literally fucking retarded.

i was hyped during the announcements, it was all pretty cool ideas. unfortunately i think blizzard have a problem with actually implementing ideas into WoW without first making them a boring waste of fucking time.

so far i'm left only really interested in PvP which is weird because i've never been a huge PvP'r. you get cool skins, classes have lost having every type of ability and have weaknesses now, separate talent selection for like trinket effects seems good for balance, and ilvl only gives like ~.1% power instead of ~1% power per ilvl. oh and cawadooty prestige mode of course.
>>
>>322368289
I think it goes something along the lines of being able to empower your weapon in different forms based on your achievements (not actual game achievements, lore-wise achievements).
Supposedly, a different form of Ashbringer, is still the same Ashbringer, just empowered or reforged or some shit.
>>
>>322367470
The only thing that doesn't suck about artifacts is not having to replace your weapon. Otherwise it's the same as the legendary ring/cloak quest, but this time with more treadmills sprinkled throughout the leveling experience.

It's a cop out to adding better content. Be as delusional as needed to justify your terrible purchase, but don't ask me to praise shit when I see it.

Blade got busted up during the legion invasion. You essentially rebuild it from the shards, and HOW you rebuild it is based on what you use to rebuild it, hence the differing appearances. IE, the method you choose for progression for your artifact determines its appearance.

>The only thing that doesn't suck about artifacts is not having to replace your weapon.

I think having your weapon grow alongside you and give you choices on how to build it that can very much change your leveling playstyle is pretty damn neat, actually. I mean, people were hyped all about the Path of the Titans, and this is pretty much that exact system. They finally managed to implement it, and it's got a pretty cool way of interacting with it.

>Otherwise it's the same as the legendary ring/cloak quest, but this time with more treadmills sprinkled throughout the leveling experience.

No, see, the legendary ring/cloaks required you to grind the same bosses over and over and over and over and over again for runes and other dumb bullshit, and they were fucking worthless items that took up bag space. It wasn't until the very end of the expansion you got your legendary--until then, it was all dumb bullshit that wasn't ever worth doing until the very end. (Cont)

That's the point, you retard. Different themes and designs based off of the same weapon, that still look like the original but give the player some room for choice and customization.

You have more customization with this new system than ever. You can still transmog your shitty weapon into whatever else you want if you don't want it.

Christ, Blizzard does some really retarded shit lately, but this is one of the best they've done, and they still get nailed for it. You faggots will go at them if they do something or if they do nothing, without actually evaluating what's going on. Stop for a second before you go full retarded.

(cont) You didn't need the legendaries. You were more than competent and able to raid and do heroic raiding without the cloak, and can easily go do Heroic HFC without the ring. I don't see how it's any different from the fucking bow and glaives of azzinoth other than different methods of acquiring them. Legendaries are aids, that being said. I never bothered with them.

>It's a cop out to adding better content.

It's adding content. You don't like the content and feel better content could have been given instead. That's fair.

>Be as delusional as needed to justify your terrible purchase, but don't ask me to praise shit when I see it.

I'm not delusional when I see and can admit faults. I enjoy the game, and SO FAR I'm enjoying what I'm seeing. Again, as I said before, there's still a chance it could turn into complete dogshit like WoD was. I'm open to the idea and accepting if it happens.

Multiboxing is hard to pull off, requires you to pay more, and isn't as effective as you think.
Besides, the justification for multiboxing being legal is that you're still playing all the characters. You're not automating anything. Seems fair to me.

If you actually get mad at it, you're retarded.

Source: I multiboxed my character so I could have RAF benefits while leveling. Account was 4€, and I offered it to my brother right after so he could enjoy some level 90 stuff, since he never played retail. Win-win.

You will only ever see 4 that are viable viable, 10 will be reskins, and the rest trash.

The same thing they do every expac. They will bake in anything that was really popular, spec wise, from artifacts, then dump the artifacts because reasons.

>reintroduce old style talent trees or some shit
One could only hope faggot, one could only hope. Worst thing they did to casualize the game was remove talent trees.
>>
>>322370090
Not true. Still need to invade Argus. Done with Azeroth after this though, yeah.
>>
>>322370259

Artifact talent tree > old style talent tree, this one at least has tangible benefits.

I swear to Christ almighty, if they bring back Kael'Thas AGAIN...
>>
>>322370090
There's still a bunch of Naga and Alliance-related shit that wasn't too explored. And the whole Old God thing, too. We haven't heard much about them, only a little bit during MoP, and they can definitely expand on that.
>>
>>322370259
I really hate this meme that talent trees used to be good. Oh boy, nothing like 1% more fire damage every other level. So exciting.

Yeah Bro, I Totally Am. WOW Is The Cool And Hip MMO To Play Right Now. Already Preordered! It's Gonna Be H*lla F*cking Epic

>>322370323
Probably do as part of the fire mage quest to get his sword for their artifact.
>>
>>322370384
Sorry, but gameplay variants are not memes kiddo. Cookie cutter builds maybe, but not memes.
>>
>>322370046
It was definitely a retarded reason, but it sure got me hyped. I threw out a lot of old quest items from before transmog even existed, and I have them on other characters. I can finally get my Honed Voidaxe back on my Fury Warrior, and that made me happy.

Still, it is pretty funny and sad that the best thing they announced was that.
>>
>>322370396
They brought her back for Cata as undead, so fuck that.

nah, came to terms during WoD that I've grown out of WoW. got some good memories, some nice stories and all that but I'm done with it.

You know what, sure. The new Artifact, AND PvP talent specs will be better. It will help also remove the shitters or force them to evolve.
>>
No. I think Tor (the most casual mmo in existence) has more skills than Wow. Says it all really.
>>
>>322370516
Variant whats? You had cookie cutter talents for every spec. The, maybe 5 points, wiggle room where the points didn't matter no matter where you put them some specs had didn't mean there was "variants". You had THE BUILD for your spec, or spec was subpar.
>>
>>322370259

Yeah I'd be happier with standard talent trees too. But just from their track record I'd guess Artifacts won't survive another expansion (which again I see as a good thing). That said, it hardly casualizes much anymore considering now everyone looks up builds anyway, so it'd just be like that with old trees.
>>
>>322370542
I did not raid at all in Cata. So you were not playign this game long enough. 60 Onyxia, 80 Onyxia, and than a 85 Undead Onyxia. I was PvPing mostly. So there was a Onyxia 3.0?

Cata kiddie spotted

>>322370812
There is only one old god left we haven't fought, and thats N'zoth. And hes involved in all this emerald dream and Azshara business.
>>
>>322370554
Good for you. I've quit for 6 months at a time before getting sucked in because of boredom, and time to kill.
>>
>>322370805
Nope. Old 60 Onyxia, refreshed 80 Onyxia, then Frankenyxia in Blackwing Descent. There was also Memory of Onyxia in that one Icecrown dungeon, but it was just a temporary enemy and not a raid boss.

Can't wait for Nightmare Onyxia in Legion.
>>
Honestly amazed that there's legions of drones that still defend WoW. It gets worse every expansion. I guess when you've spent a good portion of your life playing it, you live in some sort of wierd denial dream.
>>
>>322371079
We get Nightmare Ysera instead
>>
>>322370654

nah, quit at the end of cata. came back at the end of MoP to do the content, pleasantly surprised. tried to do the same for WoD and it wasn't happening. none of my friends play now they've moved to other MMO's that I don't care about. my time is up

Because the only Old Gods that exist are C'thun, Yogg, Ysaarj, and N'Zoth. There's only 4 Old Gods in Azeroth, period. Algalon was pretty clearly wrong about Azeroth's entire purpose.
>>
>>322370719
>maybe 5 points, wiggle room
Those 5 points make the difference in picking up a new ability, or adding more passive benefits. Especially in PvP builds, with class make-ups. How you spec depends mostly on your team work, and how well you know your classes.

This is fact nigga.
>>
>>322370918
The WC3 manual states there's 5 Old Gods. We've taken care of 3, I doubt we'll fight N'zoth in Legion, but if we do that's 4.

There's one more we don't know the name of.

Stop this meme go watch what happens in BT when you beat Illidan he doesn't die.

>Are you hyped?

No. My raiding days are well behind me and peaked in ~2006. These days I most play MMOs for housing and the community and WoW really has neither of those. Garrisons were a complete fuck-up and after a decade the gameplay has lost its luster.
>>
>>322370812

>More old gods

pls no

We have already beaten the old gods in all possible ways:

2 Imprisoned old gods
An unleashed old god
an hypothetical time-travel scenario where the old golds succeed
The corpse of an old god
A sleeping old god

There is no more room for old gods.

God I miss the times you were a mere adventurer exploring the world and not some super sayan lvl 9000000

I'm afraid you're just bitter nigga. Fun is fun. Its not stopping retard from buying the new Stormfront that lacks content, buying a Mario maker on the WiiU when the fucking thing is free online, or even every football manager every fucking year.

Don't talk about "drones" when there are much worse sheep out there faggot. At least I can play WoW for free now.

That doesn't work, people want progression. They want to get stronger and fight bigger enemies every expansion. Mists and Draenor were expansions where they TRIED keeping the power level down and doing side stories, and they always came back to it by the second patch because that disappoints people.

Mists was supposed to be the "adventure" expansion where things besides raids mattered but they needed to hype enemies up so we got Lei Shen and Garrosh got some old god juice in him.

WoD was supposed to end with an ideological battle against Grommash but they probably felt they needed to go the big Legion way and had you beat up an eredar instead of some orc.

We beat C'thun and Yogg. Ysaarj was slain, and we cleaned up his mess. That's 3 dealt with (not dead), so far. N'zoth was involved with Neltharion going BURN THE GOBBOS TOTAL ANNIHILATION NAO and the Emerald Nightmare, so he has yet to be dealt with. There is also the Old God that's in the ocean, somewhere. And lastly, the Puzzle Box mentions a giant black rook. Now, it could be talking about N'zoth. That's possible. I mean, the goat with 7 heads was Ysaarj. But it could also be a sixth one, and there's no telling what the fuck is under Tirisfal.

I agree that the focus of making you a STONE COLD BADASS COMMANDER CHOSEN ONE is total hockshit, but thankfully, I can ignore the quest text and just put my own context into it.
>>
>>322371458
I sunk more time into SW:G and CoH. I don't consider all that time wasted though, just like I don't consider the time I spent in WoW wasted.

I don't play WoW because of some sunken cost fallacy, I've honestly spent more on F2P games I haven't touched in years. I play because I like it and I manage to find some fun in it despite the game being 10 years old.

I wish they would just make an entirely new game though with a new engine. There's only so much that can be done with the WC3 engine.

>>
>>322371739
>People want progression
People dont know what they want.

Putting archimonde out of fucking nowhere because we already fought an orc the last expansion. But again, they hyped Grommash so people are dissapointed that we are suddenly fighting archimonde.

Yet another error is tying the last raid, which lasts by far more than the other raids, to the next expansion so close. Like siege of orgrimmar was a preview for WoD, HFC and tanaan is a preview of legion.
>>
>>322371458
>quit during wotlk

I came back once during panda or wod when I got a free trial in my inbox, got to 40 and the game was crap. Proceeded to uninstall and never look back.

I forsee this shit
>>
>>322358429

I started in early 2005. Vanilla was great, but the same kind of people who act like it was perfect or flawless sound like nostalgiafags and given the small percentage of people who actually did progression raids also sound like trendy liars, because if you were even in that small percentage of players and remember early raids it wasn't 100% perfect. That had a lot to do with the shit way stats were balanced and how gear was itemized early on.

Also, the early graphics are dogshit versus what they can do now. I don't mog any armor pre-Wotlk.
