It's Post-WotLk WoW in a time when there's dozens of private servers that offer better experiences than Retail, if you need talking out of it all I can do is call you a niggerfaggot and a retard for being such a colossal faggot.

They made Mathias Shaw gay? There was NEVER a hint in previous games of his sexuality.
>>

That's precisely why they can do it so easily
>>
>>734107636
i have two major issues with it

1: why do we care
2: he got paired with that pirate dude who had far better chemistry with borvar's daughter

Shaw was one of my favorite buddies to hang out with as a rogue, and him whining about letting Anduin get kidnapped really put me off. you damn faggot, your presence wouldn't have stopped it

>Mathias Shaw is now gay
how was that established
>>
>>734107356
The only way I could talk you out of it is if you don't want to play WoW, because the game is the same as it always was. Actually, that's not true. They made the game much more solo friendly. You don't have to do anything with other people if you don't want to. Dungeons can be done with an AI team now.
>>
>>734107636
They put him with a guy who already had an obvious female love interest and them fucking resulted in Anduin getting kidnapped and the entirety of Shadowlands

>>734107726
>why do we care
Typically I don't have a problem with gay characters that don't bring it to the forefront, and you really have to poke and prod them for them to even hint at it. But the problem is that it feels out of place to do it on a well established character all of a sudden. They did the same thing with making Chromie trans "because of her name".

They give characters personality traits and preferences that don't feel like they fit.

>>734107812
I even did a raid in War Within with the AI. I did it so I could see the end of the story. All that happens is Dimensius is defeated and trapped in the Dark Heart, which Xalatath runs away with. I knew it was going to happen, but I was still sad, because she works with you during K'aresh.

I don't expect this shit to last much longer so I don't want to invest any time into it. The moment they canceled the Unreal engine update it should have been a sign that the end is near but people will ride anything into the ground.

I don't even understand Xalatath's motives. I heard on Reddit that her world was destroyed or some shit, so it's like why does she want to do the same thing? Maybe she's not actually evil, but we perceive her as evil because she needs to destroy our world to bring hers back. I don't know if the WoW writers are good enough to think that up.
>>
>>734108209
>I don't expect this shit to last much longer so I don't want to invest any time into it.

1. The servers are hosted in russia, so it's unlikely that russia is going to drop what they're doing to acknowledge copyright law.

2. American court systems move extremely slow. So even if something were to actually happen, by the time it even goes forward, it'll be at least three years. Some people are speculating we got a good seven years.

3. Even through all of this, new custom content, patches, radio shows, videos, music are being made without pause.

4. the "It's not going to last, so why put time into it" mindset is destructive to the overall enjoyment of a game. Each multiplayer game (especially AAA ones) are on a lifeline. This inevitability is one of the reasons the "Stop killing games" movement is popular.

Give it a try. It's free, so you don't have anything to lose.

Story: Story is marvel/disney tier shit now. Every woman is strong and empowered, and every man has been demoted to a side character or a weakling. There is no more tension between the alliance and the horde, so there's no real "War" in "Warcraft" anymore. They even admitted that they regret the game has "warcraft" in it because it's not welcoming enough to players.

Gameplay: The game has become a waiting room simulator akin to the likes of a job. People que into dungeons, wait for hours at a time thinking it's fun, do the dungeon/raid, and get free epics.

Social: The only real social aspect you'll get in the game now is directions on what to do during boss mechanics. The journey that forced player interactions are gone. Unless you tend to roleplay, there's really no social aspects anymore.

PVP: they add in PVP because PVP is more of an obligation than something they're invested in. Same battlegrounds over and over again, same arenas over and over again, and once you get the standard pvp gear so you die in 9 seconds rather than 5 seconds, you're expected to do arenas.

Everything that made the game stand out and enjoyable is hardly a factor anymore.

>i'm in love the way they remade silvermoon

Are you? My favourite thing about the new Silvermoon is knowing that all zones can be remade in the same way. So, the potential for new content is infinite.
As for the actual city, it's kind of big. Luckily all the useful NPCs are centralised. Like, you have main story dudes in the middle area, all the profession people are in one place, and the inn is in the middle of the city. It just looks big, but it's not hard to get where you want.

>>734110109
i am guessing the last expansion of this 3 will just be revamping one or both of the continents for a few zones.
>>
>>734110375
I'm not even sure which zone I'd want a new version of. Maybe the Worgen, because you never see that place unless you make a Worgen. I just want that gothic theme for a zone, which happened in Shadowlands, but I didn't like that xpac.
It's a really good idea to remake starter zones, because nobody even visits them anymore. They'll choose an xpac and then level to 80 in that instead of Kalimdor or Eastern Kingdoms.

She is a rip off of The Silver Surfer except she managed to swallow Galactus. Because her bald alien child form has a sun necklace my bet is they're going to rip off Gorr, where the light forsook her for and left her to the void so she's trying to fuck up its plans.
She keeps hammering on about doing it for survival, so perhaps in her mind azeroth being void consumed will stop something from happening.

Only good thing about retail is that they finally realized that 10 mans are trash. The d3 endlessly scaling gear and torment climbing and doing shitty world quests is gay, just like the faggy mandatory storyline loremaster and those cutscenes for the modern audience trannies.

And the whole problem is the over-focus on bosses. They have fucked the entire game in service to it, and it is the worst gameplay ever conceived by mortal man only held together by whatever is left of the MMO. Every attempt to make a "modern MMO dungeons/raids without the MMO" style cooperative game has crashed and burned because the gameplay is fundamentally dogshit.

""classic"" is just retail-lite

>>734118319
And fuck your gay semantics when legendaries in d3 scale from the level they're first obtainable, all the way to 70. And then they could either be legendary, ancient legendary or primal legendary. It's basically thunderforging faggotry and you're a disingenuous faggot.

Nobody does this on real raids (read as not vanilla tier goyslop) because progression actually takes time in retail
When content is actually hard you master your class and the content instead of spamming alts
WoW with m+ is significantly better than raidlog slop expansions.

No, there's more. 33 Immortals is another example. There have been multiple attempts. They all failed. Because the gameplay is fundamentally dogshit.

Keep in mind, various forms of "singleplayer MMO" or MMO-like games have been some of the biggest recent trends. But these games have all focused on interacting in the big open world. Every attempt to emulate the instance grinding part has fucking imploded because its fundamentally dogshit gameplay. The fun part of MMOs is the big open world that you get to interact with other players in. This shit is objective garbage that you have sunk-cost-fallacied yourself into believing is good.

Don't be the guy who tries to judge the value of players based on stuff like DPS meters. Especially now that they introduced that dragon support class.

That support class keeps getting group kicked out of dungeons and raids when some DPS meter fag is like "WTF BRO WHY IS YOUR DPS SO LOW WHY IS THE TANK DOING MORE DPS THAN YOU" and can't comprehend that a SUPPORT class is there to improve the DPS of other players not to big dick about their own DPS.

Even ignoring that some of the most annoying WoW players are the tryhards that will stand in fire for like 12 seconds straight expecting the healer to save them because they are in the middle of casting some uber DPS combo and can't stand the fact of interrupting it and lowering their DPS meter to walk out of a fire to not die.

It's really funny to see FF14 drown itself like this, the backlash to FF14 being so heavy handed like this is not looking good for SE and FF14, it's caused such a massive shit storm.

>i unironically have never raided or done mythic dungeons, is there stuff to do besides that to get gear?

Yes. Midnight is like War Within where the kind of gear you want has upgrade levels (it'll say 1/8) and you can get that gear without doing group content. I got upgradeable gear by killing rare mobs in the world. Only thing left would be to upgrade it. I have the quest that unlocks it, and it wants some kind of currency from rare mobs, chests, and world quests. None of that is group content.

You know what one of the most frustrating parts of my original post pointing objective flaws in DPS meters was? That I knew a DPS meter fag like you would show up out of nowhere to tell me how I'm wrong and just suck at the game.

I'm actually really good at putting out DPS in WoW but you'll never believe me because trying to post anything positive about yourself on this board is like saying you have a 9 inch dick and make $400,000 working at Wendy's. Even if it's true no one will ever believe you.

I could do the most non-controversial post like "my mom petted a really cute puppy the other day" and some bitter as fuck NEET on this board would go "BULLSHIT THE PUPPY WAS UGLY AND YOUR MOTHER IS A WHORE" based on nothing but their FEELS about how if their life is shitty so nobody else can have anything nice.

Blood Elves are the most popular race in WoW so the new Silvermoon better be beautiful.

Fat female Warcraft players will campaign for years for the game to put in greater body representation like Kul tiran females. Then when they actually put it in the game even if said player has the same body as a a Kul Tiran female they'll still pick the Blood Elf that looks like Paris Hilton and nothing like them.

I actually don't care if any of you play WoW or not. There's no way WoW can fail if they keep releasing new expansions and also afford the advertising they have.

I don't have "logs" because having logs on your computer from a game you played a decade ago is not a normal thing a person does.

That's something a DPS meter fag like yourself cannot comprehend. That maybe most people who do a difficult task in a video game just do it for fun and then move on with their life.

They don't catalog their fucking World of Warcraft logs from 2016 on the off chance they can use it to win some dumb argument on /v/ a decade later.

Horde and Alliance grouping up is like when other fictional vidya/cartoon characters like Sonic and Dr Eggman group up to take out a bigger bad.But in Warcraft there is ALWAYS a bigger bad.

It makes even less sense in WoW since the Horde leader burned down all of Teldressil killing countless innocents and then in Shadowlands her explicitly stated goal was "I WANT TO KILL EVERYONE". Sylvanas burning down Telldressil wasn't even some high IQ pre-planned move she just did it out of nowhere due to getting super butthurt and emotional over something some other elf said.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVp7yLfnmrE

She is objectively a more evil person than Garrosh or Arthas and unlike Arthas doesn't even have the excuse of "I was being corrupted and didn't know what I was doing" but she gets a pass since modern Blizzard loves it's female GIRLPOWER characters.
>>
>>734127692
I don't have high hopes for it, I just wish they would focus on making new things instead of porting over features from retail. Like make arenas a physical thing in the world instead of instances, players can organize their own pvp events, spectators can sit in the stand and take bets on who wins. Instead of belfs and draenei we have other races like timbermaw, ogres, nagas and goblins.
Instead of dungeon/raid difficulties we simply have other more difficult dungeons. There is tons of potential here.

Retail nowadays is not even a real game, it's a cleverly planned time waster. Classic on the other hand is pretty good. But I prefer playing by favorite addon (WotLK) on the private servers instead.

And a presumptuous cunt at that. My friends are alliance side, I made new ones for horde. Because I am not a whiny bitch who wants to demand changes rather than SOCIALIZE in a fucking MMORPG.

Consider why you quit and remind yourself that the reason behind it has not changed, just like the root cause of your disillusionment and disdain has only gotten worse and will continue to get worse.
>>
>>734129187
It's Classic Plus, not some #nochanges server releasing for the nth time. This is the time for changes and not having faction locked classes is a pretty good change. Much like dual spec and bottling world buffs before it.

>>734107356
Are you interested in the gameplay loop of doing nothing but mythic+ dungeon runs and a mythic dungeon once a week and waiting for the weekly reset? Because that is literally the end game content.

>>734129138
I am rather not ADHD enough for retail. There are too many random UI elements, random distractions. Too much noise. Doesn't feel like a real game to me. Classic is coherent at least.

>being "corrupted" doesn't apply to Arthas
He had literal DEATH magic corrupting his mind and then got his consciousness mixed in with an Orc space Warlock from another planet to the point he didn't even know who he was anymore.

Even once you kill him he's like a child asking his dad if it's over as if he had no idea what was happening. He's like the textbook example of a video game character getting corrupted and committing atrocities he had no idea he did.

He might as well be an alzheimer's patient who shoots his nurse and then once he regains his sanity before his death goes "I... I did that?" Characters like Big Boss or Huey Emmerich don't have that excuse since they knew full well what they were doing in their descent into villainy, which can't be said for Arthas.
>>
>>734130384
Arthas never forgot who he was and it was only when he put on the helm that his mind mixed with (and then crushed) nerzhuls soul which was long after all his warcrimes
He made it clear many times he was taking out personal grudges too

He was gone when he burned Stratholme, get the fuck out of here. Grabbing Frostmourne made it worse, helmet finished it. I hate this fucking narrative that Arthas was not responsible for what he did, he most certainly was.

Pretending like its anything other than being unable to walk and chew gum at the same time is dishonest. Most bosses have 0 additional UI elements and those that do have 1 extra energy bar or 1 extra button on the screen for you to press

Retail is fine. It still has the best moment to moment gameplay of any MMO (by that I mean just the act of moving around and hitting buttons feels way better than games like XIV or GW2). The problem with it is that everything else about it is so fucking gay and lame I just can’t stomach it for very long. I’ve tried multiple times and I always wrap back around to wishing I was playing Legion or Classic instead.

In classic I decided to try warrior which was a fucking slog holy shit but worth it at end game.
Then TBC rolled around and warriors were instantly garbage again until endgame

The gear and merits mean nothing. Its a fucking video game. Play for the fun and to experience it then move on. Expansions are always fun the first month cause they're full of buzz with a large player base. By the end everyone is tired and bitter and the only people left hate themselves, the game, and their life.

This is only a thing in vanilla because classes are blatantly incomplete
Real classes (mage) have no issue AoEing, and other mostly complete classes like warlock can easily juggle multiple mobs

yes and they just built a bridge
originally the sunwell was in the center of silvermoon
then when tbc came out they retconned it by saying that arthas and his armies simply walked on the ocean floor
then when reforged (and the heritage questline for the belves came out) they retconned it again by having arthas build a frost bridge
then in midnight they simply built a massive bridge to connect the 2, the distance is the same

If you liked MoP and Legion specifically then yeah, this is closer to those than the BFA/SL dumpster era.

Leveling is actually chill for once. Zones have that “contained adventure” vibe instead of cosmic fanfiction nonsense every 5 minutes. It’s not peak MoP aesthetics or Legion class fantasy, but it’s coherent and doesn’t actively insult you. That’s already a win in current year.

Gameplay-wise it’s basically Legion-lite. Talent trees are intact, most specs feel complete without 3 layers of borrowed power stapled on, and hero talents are more “fun side flavor” than Shadowlands covenant prison 2.0. Some are cool, some are mid, but they don’t brick your character.

Endgame is just modern retail. If you like M+, raids, and weekly dopamine chores, you’ll be fine. If you hated that loop, nothing fundamental changes your mind. It’s polished retail, not a reinvention.

Story is… serviceable. Not MoP political kino, not Legion hype, but it’s way less embarrassing than “Jailer was behind everything bro.” Low bar cleared.

So no, it won’t convert someone who hates retail design. But if your taste is specifically MoP/Legion and you bounced off the two worst expansions, this one probably won’t make you seethe. It’s a solid 7/10 instead of a war crime.
