  1. I hate pvp in wow, but I am loving this game mode. Really feels like everyone starts at the same place, bit of luck in drops and some skill involved. It's just a shame its a limited time thing. Hoping it just means there will be a different set of rewards/map after that.

  2. Why is there a WoW event all about not playing WoW? And this isn't classless WoW. It's Fortnite but worse. There also isn't any PvE flexibility because the bloodthirsty hounds will hunt you down to further their own ends. They pitched this like it was going to have something for everyone, but it most certainly does not.

  3. I appreciate the willingness to try new things, but as a currently inactive player, this doesn’t appeal to me at all and even a free weekend wouldn’t entice me to even try it.

  4. I have been playing it, and I don't like it. For me it is ".. another annoying battle royal game I feel I will have to grind for the mounts…". I know there are going to be people who will enjoy this, good for them. This is PvP. Them trying to lie to us about how it is not or mention PvE is misleading. You are forced to PvP, leave it at that. In all honesty, they are overinflating their player numbers for this game mode simply because of the transmogs and mounts. If they removed those, I guarantee there would be far less players. My biggest complaint is the absolute horrible slog grind it is to go up levels. Let us get through the levels and get the mogs so those of us who don't enjoy this can move on.

  5. I like the action-rpg feel, wildstar fan here.

    But it does come off as a bit janky due to wow engine limitations, in the end if they ever were brave enough to try a action-rpg game I'd be down;
    However, I don't think I'd enjoy it on the old wow engine, someday I hope blizzard will pull the trigger and build a new modern engine for a "Wow2" or w.e mmo they have in mind- that is if they wish to truly go down an action-rpg route.

  6. I loved it. I'm super awful at it, haven't managed to actually kill anyone. But it's fun!

    Also, im not sure what people in the comments are mad about? Its not a major patch, it was made by a couple people. Nothing is lost.

  7. Honestly, I'm more disappointed this wasn't actually WoW content…and more like WoW-adjacent. I applaud the risk taking and don't want them to stop, but not using my character doesn't really grab me.

  8. This comment section is so depressing, the average retail WoW fan's mindset has devolved into "this new content isn't to my taste/this isn't giving me rewards fast enough, therefore it shouldn't exist". No wonder the game is in such an awful state when the playerbase Blizzard has to cater to are essentially rats in a cage who have a meltdown when their dopamine drip-feeder machine is interrupted.

  9. Just wanted to add to the conversation as a LONG time WoW player that hasn’t really been invested in many years…this mode excites me.

    It excites me so much i’d love to see them keep this or iterate this as a full game. Think warzone for call of duty. I know yall might not care about a WoW BR but i would personally love that!

    This will absolutely earn a 1 month sub from me!

  10. 10 – 15 Minutens? More like 20 seconds in most cases. And it's boring to see the most effective counter to any attack is running and jumping in circles as is has been 20 years ago. Very bad gameplay.

  11. Tried this content today, quite disappointed. Not by needing to gather the plunder, but the way to go about it. I can hardly gather 20-40 plunder without being taken out by much stronger players because the PVP part of it is mandatory. It's like leveling with war mode on, I had hoped the solo content, or the PVE aspect of it, would be a better option. Like with PVP, if you don't have it on they can't attack you. Not going to play this anymore, can't even decently advance in spells before being chased and wiped out by several players at the same time.

  12. I like the tech and systems underlying it, but ultimately if this wasn't at its core a FOMO rep grind, I wouldn't be touching it. Something as simple as a plunder bonus based on your rank would make the grind feel so much better.
