Fyrakk felt like a Disney villian and he was beaten by the power of friendship🤣
You know that scene in Adventure Time where all the Gunters are frantically trying to write for the magazine…
How's going F2P sound as a risky new direction? Because I'm done paying $15 a month to play. No shot I'm paying for a whole year's sub all at once, either. They need to rid themselves of the subscription model if they want to save their game. I think most of us are tired of paying to sub, paying each expansion, it's more money than it's worth right now honestly.
Too little consequence to the villains' actions, too little world-scale impact. I want to see another cataclysm-level event, it's not like we don't have the 'system' of Zidormi (to go to old versions of zones) in the game. Blow up the entirety of Elwynn forest for all I care, just give me a fuckin' reason to actually have beef with the villain for doing something destructive to something I care about.
Latest to do something like this was with Sylvanas burning Teldrassil, only for us to chase her ass for 2 entire expansions for them to 'redeem' her and save her ass, giving us some fall-guy in the Jailer that we've basically never heard of and don't quite care about at all….
Triple Ape game
I'd love to see Acco and Asmon discuss about Blizzard's current and future situation: True they're not the same type of streamer but that could actually ignite an even more meaningful conversation
I say let this game die. It's over.
since vanilla had such an amazing story lol aka his perfect mmo
i liked overwatch… they screwed that game up
Leave of your fired most likely
whether or not Christy Golden is at fault, the lore and quest department needs an overhaul and she basically was the name of that aspect of WoW aside from Steve Danuser. It sucks for her, but realistically if you want to go in a totally new direction, you should wipe the slate clean.
my god why are we complicating this, we all saw the two dungeon "dev" with the stay away bright color hair found only in things you dont fuck with in nature "play" there own game quite badly.
Not only was it clear they dont play the game they work on they dont play anything outside of phone games.
When gamers where making games for gamers it was fine, for every mediocre game there was five games so bad they were good and 3 games so good your mind was blown. These people dont understand gaming culture because they dont share the passion, they share the passion for easy paychecks.
wow went too much into high magical realm but that was never supported by the setting, the physical struggle of alliance and horde from the original games got watered down into a magical setting where nothing makes sense while trying to make a wonder out of everyplayer, if 99 percent of the players were just an alliance footman, or a orc warrior, being a well equipped veteran at most, you could keep that brute physical struggle, but now ridiculous magical powerlevels destroyed the lore itself, i remenber the trailer for the older games mentioning elven weapons and dwarven cannon being the shit, now you need a ridiculous magical god slaying unique weapon that thousands of other players also have 😂
Dropping Christie Golden is absolutely wild, I really enjoyed the warcraft books she wrote and I'm not a big fan of reading. In tenth grade I even took like this reading comprehension test and ended up at a second grade reading lvl XD
Edit: I even used those books to do book reports on at school
Glad Danloser is gone
I’ve always loved Christie, but the Arthas book really could’ve been better, she essentially wrote off one of Warcrafts greatest characters/villains, Ner’zuhl.
The lich king was really cool for the idea that two minds were essentially occupying Arthas’ body now. You were conflicted with his character because both of them were conflicted souls, especially Arthas.
One writer write the story for the project? Didn’t George Lucas do that on the original 6 movies?
everyone wanted to see the emerald dream and the aspects story, but not told in this way!
Is this a physician?
after the league of legends bull crap with vanguard their have been an influx of returning players to heroes of the storm. i play every week
Remember the days when Blizzard as a company was literally untouchable in terms of not having to worry about competition? In 2024, if a company puts in the work, they CAN indeed put Blizzard out of business.
People are celebrating. Because she hated white men. I’m guessing.
Imagine, with all the current changes, diablo 4 did a relaunch with an equal extend as final fantasy 14 has done it.
When Metzen came back there were a lot of employees that were upset with him because of the changes he wanted to make. Thank fuck he came back. If Metzen leaves after the world soul saga, it might a bad time…
What's wrong with fem boys?
One of the firstbooks I have ever enjoyed is Lord of Clans from Christie Golden. When you said the name I had to think where do I know it from and when you said warcraft it clicked.
Can someone give tldr on what is the new risky direction?
A Risky New Direction would be to not being a timegated grindfest.
The loss of Christie is terribly sad.
steve danuser is gone? holy fucking shit god might be real
I've been 'beaten with stones' for stating that DF is just EW .
D4 s4 endgame is boring.
These companies are doing my trial runs on AI for creative positions along with firing salaried people for contract workers ultimately to take in more money.
People used to complain about green Jesus when the game was good. Little did they know how bad the story could get.
This is a major problem in media. The fact is, they should've already been in progress on World of Warcraft 2 fucking 5 years ago, before they even announced Classic. Classic was supposed to be a salute to the players that appreciate the core game, a victory lap for Blizzard, an homage to everything the game has accomplished, even if it was couched in a cynicism that the game was too bloated.. It was the perfect opportunity to lay the game to rest and carry the player base forward into something new while we're all still nostalgic and mindful of what we love about it.. but.. they don't know how to stop. They don't want to design a new game or take risks. They want to squeeze the very last nanoliter of juice out of wow and suck the title bone dry.
16:25: The story can absolutely get dumber and worse. It probably won't, but never underestimate the limits of both human stupidity and human hubris, if a limit even exists at all.
HoTS got some balance changes this week 😀
Blizzard need to restart from after WotLK or Mist of Pandoria and rewrite the lore story from there and scrap everything else that came after. That would be their best bet even tho it's a huge move and a confirmation that it really sux.
dragonflight lacked testosterone, bring back garrosh
once they get rid of the bouncy animation running on the character models (except the OG draenei), i will be more on board.
She didnt leave any breast milk in the fridge
There's also AI now
Destroy Azeroth and make something cool from that.
Christie was in Blizzard for 25 years. She was there when you thought you loved it and when you thought you didn't. She was just another victim of the fact that her name got out there too many times cause of the books.
This is nothing but a scapegoat and firing someone that was probably making too much after 25 years of working in the company. There is nothing worth of celebration here. It was a scummy move. Even if Metzen wanted only one writer per expansion, you can give that project to them in advance. Btw Metzen isn't the boss. So it's not even him. My guess is this is just higher ups firing the better payed employees to increase margins.
