Am I the only one that remembers that theres a pandemic going on and working on a game from home is a humongous pain in the ass? Yeah, games late, suck it up, the whole world sucks rn.
Yeah, a after blizzcon i already decided to unsub till next big patch once it runs out. Not upset about the delay, coronavirus sucks, but also not gonna pay for a lack of live services
Wanting a new patch so fast is actually selfish. My guild consisting of normal people with families and jobs is still 6/10 mythic progression and I could not care less about the no lifers who cleared all content in 1 month.
Drop rate is non existent. Gear from raids suck. Better gear running mystic dungeons. Then people wonder why ilv players 220 can't raid. Do mechanics. Raid gear needs better stats. You always replacing usfull stats like crit and haste for vers and mastery. As you get higher ilvl gear. Stupid
I've been able to get one character up to 218 ilvl and another 3 above 200. I'm ok with the gap.
Did the leveling in all zones. Did the Dungeons. Did the raid. I wish they just gave us flying right now. All I wanna do now is leveling alts and that's SO much better with flying. Especially in the vertical hellhole that is Revedreth.
I think it is behind. I think covid kicked everything in the arse for scheduling. All those people leaving the company and whatnot didn't help either. So it's all kinds of things playing off each other.
Sure, release 9.1 and confirm that endgame content is only for 1.2% of the playerbase
Fel is hell of a drug, look at that content on LEGION
the population online has dropped dramatically
Did you completely overlook, idk, the global pandemic affecting everything under the sun? A little global awareness might be the order of the day. Who knows how hard it is to pump this shit out when everyone is WFH… this video had absolutely no mention of any of these factors.
They did what they always do, frontload content and cause burnout.
Nice I still have plenty of time to get my glad 🙂
I’m actually very impressed with the Job that Blizzard has done on Shadowlands during a pandemic. For casual gamers the current timeline isn’t too bad. Gives us time to try out other classes and get multiple classes geared and ready for the next tier. As a top pro who probably already has mythic raids and 15+ keys cleared on several characters, I can understand why they are bored.
Listening to the video its clear to me you need more product to produce your content, and that the interests of most gamers are not really who you claim to be advocating for.
9.1 being away is okay and understandable. 9.05 still not on the horizon AND being quite lacking in anything but bandaids is whats really bad about it.
Having fun is the only tangible accomplishment in this game. Everything else is truly and literally meaningless.
Achievements, mounts, and gear are not real. So the moment you stop having fun while pursuing those virtual things, you should just take a break. If you continue to play despite not having fun, then you are officially addicted. Clinically addictive gameplay, of course, is the one persistent design goal throughout Wow's history.
To be honest, I'm really glad the patches aren't coming out that fast. Gives us "normals" a chance to get to the CE as well, not just the top 500 or so. Yes it might be boring for those who clear and conquer everything in about 2 months, but the game is not just for those top 30% of the ppl, it's for everyone.
yeah i’m gonna have to agree with a lot of people in the comments here, i like the slower pace. it feels so much more fulfilling to move onto new content knowing the past content isn’t incomplete.
Not one mention of COVID? Not one mention of corporate shakeup? This is super tone deaf lol
I have only been playing shadowlands for 3 weeks and:
There are 12 classes
I have 3 lvl 60s
I have 6 in shadowlands lvl 49+
The only 3 classes I dont have in shadowlands is: monk, mage, and priest….
I have absolutely nothing to do but play wow all day every day and I still somehow dont feel like I have enough time to do even 1/4 of what I need to do.
Actually this has been perfect. It allows players to actually spend time on multiple alts without feeling behind. You do your quests, renown, some Mythics, and then still have time to work on other toons with the time left over. This is the most alt friendly expansion I have seen where fellow Guild members actually can work on alts without having to play an extra 10 hours a week to do so.
summer seems like a bad time to release a patch too
Shadowlands has far more content then BFA, especially enjoyable meaningful content. If anyone has gotten bored already imo that is a them problem. They need to make alts or explore all of the different types of content WoW has to offer. Also keep in mind due to the craziness of today's world and many Devs working from home that is going to slow things down considerably. Personally I'd rather good polished content then the rubbish BfA had to offer. Legion was a different animal and hard to compare, they abandoned WoD early and got an additional year to work on Legion.
Returned to SWTOR for a bit fuck WOW and their time gate on loot and flying.
As mostly a weekend gamer, I'm fine with Shadowlands content pacing. Although, I still wish Blizz would hire more devs (artists, systems designers, programmers, etc.) and showed some love to the current ones, since WoW is producing great financial results.
Imo Shadowlands launched lacking content, it needed Legion's tempo to stay relevant and instead, it will roll content out slower than WoD.
Ive got plenty to do in shadowlands. But i do have other interests in my life and play other games i read books watch movies work full time job so im not shackled to wow 24/7. I guess if thats all you do in your spare time i guess you guys should look at other interests.
We also were able to pug mythic uldir within the first month…. 3 months later we don’t even have Xserver opened yet. Basically al the mediocre mythic guilds got shit on this tier with the biggest reason being less loot drops, slows progression. Complete bs
Don't forget that covid had some contribution to the delay of Shadowlands.
Let's not forget BFa sucked.
