Just give me a WoW 2 on a spankin' new engine with cloth physics and carry over absolutely nothing so autistic shitters can't link shit or measure any part of their pathetic 10 year stint in the cash cow farm.

Also: start back from the events of Warcraft TFT and throw out all lore post Vanilla. Even TBC didn't make sense, Illidan was not even remotely a threat on the radar compared to Arthas.

Also: don't make Kael such a fucking idiot who gets written out in the worst "Muh corruption" story of WoW.

>>380856838
Again, they cornered themselves with their bad writing, so they can't really release "WoW 2" without causing a shitstorm. Guess that's why they wanted something different for their next MMORPG (project titan), then they realized that they couldn't make an original game to save their lives and there isn't a MMORPG to copy like they did with Everquest so they scrapped it into a copy of an established FPS. Don't expect a new MMO from Blizzard.
>>
We won't see the end of WoW for another ten years at least, maybe longer. EQ1 is still running, and WoW won't die any time sooner. It's pretty easy to make money on a running MMO, what's expensive is the upfront cost of making the engine and getting the infrastructure and that's paid off with dividends. The content will keep declining and getting stretched further, but as long as a few hundred thousand fucks keep buying subscriptions or tokens, it'll keep running.
WoW2 won't ever happen, Activision wouldn't fund it.
>>
>>380857271
They never feel cornered with their writing, they don't even keep up with their own lore. If they have real doubts about something they just retcon it and add self-aware dialogue. What? No, it's always been this way.
>>
>>380857414
>"WoW is dead!"
>half of the people who said that is part of the 6-7 millions that buy every new expansion and plays for a month
>they they quit and pay another month then next year
>while probably around 1 million still pay the subs or buy tokes
This, WoW is profitable as fuck, even if their skeleton crew keep maintaining it with reused assets and they lose a 75% of their current playerbase/sale, that would be aroun 1.5~2 million sales each expansion and ~200000 subs. Still profitable as fuck.
>>
>>380857271
Lol if you think they copied Everquest in any fashion you're an idiot. They aren't even remotely comparable.

WoW basically created the hotkey MMO. EQ1 was clunky, ugly, and incredibly use unfriendly. You lost exp when you died, and resurrected naked having to find your body. WoW even in Vanilla was considered a huge casualization of the then-MMO era, making the entry point easier for new players.

That is why it sold and continued to do well through WotLK, where it peaked, both in player count and user friendly ease of pickup.

Cata basically was the worst followup, with a threat we didn't care about, and a complete upheaval of classic content.

An enormous chunk of their playerbase were Chinese anyway, back in the day. Those accounts practically only existed to inflate numbers and make the game look more impressive, but one western account payed as much as six chinese ones.

>>
>>380857894
That's all you need to know about how low effort the game is. All they'd need to do is make three or four new animations per race per expansion and the game would feel fresher, more responsive and more alive. The effort would be practically zero, their animators can animate Overwatch intros in a single afternoon and WoW needs a fraction of that, yet they just won't do it out of laziness.

No fucking way, the game was ruined when they didn't reset the world from Catalycsm.

They need to close off and do the world properly at the moment the game looks like Final Fantasy XIV before the A realm reborn and suffers from the same drawbacks. A incoherent story and giving the players access to any boss they want.

They could of use that content and updated it by including it in the caverns of time, which is what it was originally made for.

They had literally 2 caves in vanilla.

>>380857927
IIRC, chinks don't buy expansions, so these sales are wester cucks. After a quick google search I couldn't find the current numbers of Legion sales, but seems they've sold 3.3 millions day 1. That's a lot of money for barely any time, effort and talent invested.
>>
>>380857894
>>380857697

Every asset in WOW is reused in every fucking blizzard game. How come your all fucking surprised?

and no it's not profitable, the only reason it is profitable is other games feed off of it.

There's no reason for Hearthstone to start including diablo and starcraft heroes, close the game down and use the content from there.

>>380858408
China has completely moved on from it anyway, it's pretty much 100% western now and that makes it ridulously profitable. Hell, even if they have only one million subscribers left, that's still 13 Million bucks a month before taxes. Keeping the infrastructure running can't be that costly by now.
>>
>>380858757
Again, my point is that it still sells a lot in the west. Even if they remove the subs, more than 3 million sales each year or two for a game made by interns is a lot of money and a really profitable "product".

>>380858870
Exactly, and as I said (>>380858742), you need to add tokens and cashshop stuff. Even if it get reduced to a niche game with 1/10 of the players, it would be profitable.

In cata it became too casual, or user friendly as you say it.
Anyway, the WoW team definitely at least drew inspiration from other MMOs at the time. Hell, think about it this way, their lead designer was a hardcore EQ player. He was also responsible for the game's success in my opinion. There's no coincidence that once he left the game became irrelevant quickly after. He's also responsible for the success of Overwatch.

WoW is the natural progression of the poopsockers from EQ. Shove everything behind a raid gate so people can do their 40 man yelling at their convenience instead of having to compete with rival guilds for limited spawn time.

Everything else is basically the inevitable casualization you get with the genre because too high a barrier to entry and no one maintains huge subscriber numbers and people leave because they realize grinding end game isn't as fun as everything else you can do in life.

How do people still manage to play this game?

Its not like top level gear was anything more than a participation trophy or lottery anyway. Back when MMOs were hard you at least had a sense of comraderie because you'd all been through the same shit and paid your dues to be where you were.

>>380866053
Its an issue with the eternal dev cycle.

The two major core concepts of an MMO are progression and community.

The problem with WoW is that the devs tried to improve the game and destroyed both of those traits. Great example is the LFG tool.

The problem? Took fucking forever to form groups for raids and dungeons. You had to use trade chat to advertise your group and get people in and that clearly is a flawed system. So did they give the players tools to find people easier? Nope, automated the whole fucking process and you get paired with literal strangers on random servers. Which surprised surprise led to nerfing the content because literal strangers automatically queueing for shit are worse than people teaming up from the same server.

This is the patrician post. I would add that gameplay needs a heavy revamp, not just to go back to classic style gameplay, but even further than that. A wide variety of stats that weigh heavily on the nature of your playstyle (not just your raw output). A world with environments that will fuck you up if you aren't careful, like the new Zelda but with much more emphasis on the danger.

Their biggest mistake with WoW was seeing expansions as an infinite extension to the main game. The expansions should have stopped at Wrath and from there they should have built an entirely new game from scratch. Instead they let the diseased cash cow collapse in its own festering filth to rot away.

What gets me is that nobody says anything about "oh wow Bolvar has started saying shit wonder how he's doing at this point" or "man I sure hope this doesn't mean Bolvar is losing his fucking mind since he's just calling himself the Lich King and yukking it up now"

I know technically only Darion is supposed to know that's Bolvar, but that only raises more questions. Why are the Knights of the Ebon Blade not absolutely shitting all over themselves at the thought of this new Lich King? Why is nobody asking what the hell happened, where did this guy come from, are we going to have to kick his ass and when in the timeline of saving the world from the demons does that fit in?

And you as the player, who technically knows better than anyone about how the whole last Lich King thing went down, you don't do or say anything as an interaction with this guy. He just starts talking to you telepathically, and then you go to Darion and he's like, "I mean how could it hurt, we'll keep an eye on him right but eh go get Frostmourne and we'll see what happens from there"

The DK campaign is about the lich king coming back in a big way. He literally tells you that even if you die the Death Knights are going out to fuck shit up anyway under his direction.

The entire campaign has you wondering though, are you doing this out of your own will anymore? Or has he made all the decisions for you?

Apparently the higher-tier undead (like the death knights) don't break free from Lich King's control.

The better question is, how are so many players playing FFXIV when it's a carbon copy of WoW. Except slower and with catgirls and a load less content.

>>380866939
The problem with the LFG tool was that it only went down hill because of fucked up server architecture, as in there were never enough people at any given time to guarantee you could run that dungeon you wanted because servers were only a few thousand people. Basically, it was the other side of the problem they were trying to fix by introducing instances.

Instances were introduced because in EQ you would get groups camping out in a dungeon to grind XP, and because someone else wanted to camp that same spot, they'd start fucking with each other, and no one would get anything done. In an instance, its just you and your group doing shit to your hearts content. The problem is when no one wants to run those dungeons, it becomes an issue of no one ever going there because you need X people and gathering anything short of X means you're not going to do it.

No. There's no doubt that raiding is fun for the right person but most people just don't give a shit. Especially now that there isn't even any incentive to raid for your average casual since you can just get all the benefits from LFR. LFR, LFG, and all the other content simply isn't enjoyable unless you're autistic. That's why most casuals play this game for a month and then quit.

I think that pre-cata, especially wotlk, was the best period for casual players. Everything was doable, it only took time. Since it took time, people were stuck playing the game for longer.

My understanding is that at Light's Hope Chapel everyone realized that Arthas was just throwing DKs at an impossible mission. Darion got so mad that he threw Ashbringer at Tirion, big Light happened, kablam. Now we're the Ebon Blade and our mission is to ruin the LK. And then after that happened we sort of just folded back into Alliance or Horde, but maintained our ties to Acherus and the Ebon Blade.

And nothing of great consequence happened for several years until Bolvar starts magically talking to us, which is probably really fucking bad news, because DKs thought they were done being controlled I was pretty sure. But maybe I'm missing something and we've been just waiting for this day to come?

I need to curb my speculation, I might come up with a better story than whatever we've actually got.

I'd laugh if they did but let SC keep its higher powerlevel so they just steam role everything.

Demonic magic slowly tears away your connection from the light, its why there are broken Draenei. They can never use it again regardless of faith, but it can still soothe and comfort them because the magic isn't a part of them anymore
Necromatic magic rips it away entirely, so the light can't even soothe you anymore. It burns and your only reward is to temporarily feel your flesh rotting. So undead priests healing undead warriors is the most sadomasochistic thing in video games.

Really wish they went the other way with racials because undead priests being members of the cult/church of the forgotten shadow and trolls being hexpriests would've been much cooler than the different skin shit we got.

WoW 2 would honestly probably be great, but it'll never happen. WoW just has that massive brand name and world everyone WANTS to come back to, but the game is still stuck in the mud.

They do a new engine, try some different things, incorporate some sandbox, and even if the game was mediocre, it'd make them millions, just because of all the people desperate to relive the glory days of WoW.

I don't even want to imagine how much profit they'd make if they actually tried and change the genre.

WoW models work very strangely, basically, each race-hair-haircoulor-earring-skintone-legpiece-chestpiece-headpiece-weapon ect is an entirely different character model, but each model can only display so much data without needing to go through a mountain of spaghetti code just to increase the limit. Most games (FFXIV/GW2 ect) have limits so high you'll never reach them, but because WoW is just a heavily modifyed Warcraft 3 engine it's much much lower.

As someone who autistically played from launch to cata, I assure you I do not want vanilla. Vanilla is kinda cool if you have no life, but even then it grinds. BC is the idea nolifer expansion, with wotlk being the best everyman expansion.


Modern WoW makes a bunch of mistakes, but at the end of the day its main issue is that the content that makes it fun requires you to play on a work like schedule which is not realistic once you grow up past the age of 20. If I won the lotto, I would totally play the shit out of modern WoW even with it being not as great, but I can't pour 50+ hours a week down the drain for a video game when I have to manage work, family, and school.
