Likewise, game is so stale nowadays, the only thing that could bring me back is a genuine sequel with updated graphics, instead of the lipstick-on-a-pig pseudo-2000s graphics the game has currently.

The fact that they're continuing the trend of recycling recognisably named enemies from BC just like in WoD (Archimonde, KJ) is creatively bankrupt. The game is absolutely past its prime and needs a reboot.

>>387306105
My friends bought me a sub at the start of legion. We blew through Emerald Nightmare, I had four Leggos by the time I quit during the first week of the story line quests for Nighthold. Helya was interesting but annoying. Grinding mythic+ got super boring after the 999th time doing the same dungeon. My warrior tank was still OP even after they tried nerfing the shield we had. World quests were a better option than dailies because it gave the illusion of choice. My friends are pressuring me to return for Argus but I doubt I will.

>>387314563
The game is so badly designed now (assuming you are a player and not a greedy game dev who wants to milk your money), they let people grind for months, the grind is locked behind timegates so you have to login every day and can't do it straight if you are hardcore, doing more isn't rewarded, after a few months of grind the announce a new system so your months of grindings are worthless. In fact, new players get your months of grind in a few days, so they can catch up.

On top of that RNG on drops, shitty bosses, green shit everywhere.. Glad I quit.

>>387319580
People definitely do complain about titanforging and the rest.

The problem with AP is that it forces you to do shit you don't really want to do. I don't want to go back and do EN. Mythic dungeons I've been doing since the start of the expansion, changing some numbers does not make it new content.

I can just skip them, but then I miss out to some autistic guy who absolutely loves doing the same thing every single day. It doesn't matter if you only do heroic really but past that it's frustrating.

And it stops me playing alts. Wouldn't be a problem either except classes now are extremely dull the majority of them. Playing BM hunter for even two weeks made me want to end it all.
>>
>>387306105
>>387306152
I legitimately don't know how anyone but RPers could stay subbed at this point, aside Mythic people in a guild with people they enjoy playing with, which is apparently rare.
>>
>>387319965

They 'fixed' the AP grind now basically. At max AK you can unlock the new traits before you've even opened up Suramar.

They lost me by holding ToS on a leash for 11 weeks. By the 7th my group stopped playing and got burned out, I haven't even gotten curve from a pug and Argus drops in like a month or something
>>
>>387306152
You escaped from escapism?
>>
>>387319965
i'd agree with you, except that Concordence of Legionfall is your AP dump. It's not intended to be maxed out. Once you hit the first investment the grind is over, as you get minimal returns from investing into it more than once.

Any autism pushing you to get 50/50 rank in it is extremely misplaced as it's virtually impossible to hit that mark unless you literally do nothing but grind AP 24/7 for the next three years.

>>387319965
>And it stops me playing alts.
except for the fact that once you hit AK40 on one character you can buy the book that grants automatic AK40 to your alts, which make hitting all your non-Concordance traits super easy. You can probably do it in a day or so of half assed grinding on a fresh 110 alt.

At this point the people who still complain about the AP grind are either turbo autists or they stopped playing a month into the expansion but still come around to shit talk the game for no good reason.
>>
I played the fuck out of Legion from launch until the end of January when the nighthold roughly came out, we were starting to progress on heroic when I thought to myself "I've been averaging about 8 hours a day on this shit" Decided to quit, and here I am travelling around Europe for the past 2 months.

I stopped playing the game shortly afterwards. Stuck on my main due to a lack of players willing to do Mythic dungeon pugs, and since alts had twice the grind, I felt that it was pointless to continue playing.

AP grind is literally same shit as talents, just lots of tiny +x% buffs which they said they hated.

Except with talents you got done farming them once you hit max lvl and you could easily swap between specs. AP grind only starts at max level and you're fucked if you wanna play more than one spec or play alts.

One thing about WoW and lewd names/association. The moment you kill someone in PVP, or the other side sees your name in the loss screen, you are getting reported.

Worgen are hideous but maybe they'll get new models with the next expansion.

The problem with the AP grind is they can't balance it right.
It sucked to max it out pre 7.2 because it was so significant for your damage to have all the traits in your artifact but actually finishing it felt like a relief because you could slow down on doing fucking all content like a madman, which of course Blizzard thinks is bad because then we play less. So what do they do instead, they completely redo the artifact tree and the final trait is a dump trait that feels completely worthless because you'll barely notice the effects of it because each additional rank is so minimal and that it's designed to not be maxed in the first place so now rather than feeling relieved at maxing it (old style) you just feel apathy for the AP grind.

Titanforge is fine for everyone except mythic raiders, what's the point of mythic gear if it's easier and more efficient to get that level of gear from rng. Had Titanforging always capped out at mythic baseline; 880 during EN, 900 during NH and 930 during ToS it would have been completely fine.

Because I got tired of Blizzard treating an MMO like it's a Facebook game with the inclusion of Garrisons in Draenor and class halls in Legion, as well as the god awful decision of making high level current content the only focus and ignoring everything else in the game.

That's why recently I've been playing the trial for FFXIV and honestly I haven't had this much fun in an MMO in such a long time. It feels so much more engaging to play and actually have THINGS TO DO compared to current WoW. Even the smallest of details thats put into FFXIV makes me appreciate the surroundings so much I don't even mind leveling so slowly and being forced to rush to experience current content.

I played on release and I realized every fucking WoW boss boils down to don't stand here or there. Why can't Blizzard make good boss fights like From Software? Blizzard uses the same boss mechanics from Vanilla for every raid they done literally every boss does the same boring shit mechanics they only change in colour. WHY are Blizzcuck OK with this?

I'm not a game designer mate but the problem lies within the WoW engine which is dogshit and the only fight mechanic you ever have is don't stand here.

Let's look at the current tier, none of the bosses are centered around "don't stay here" mechanics

Goroth
>Whole raid has to coordinate to decide which spikes to break and which to keep in the spot, patterns vary from pull to pull

Demonic Inquisition
>Raid has to coordinate entering into the other realm to avoid being overrun by adds, while ensuring nobody reaches 100 energy

Harjatan
>Have to minimize stacks on everyone, kiting and interrupting is essential

Sisters of the Moon
>Have to coordinate groups changing sides of the moon in order to not blow up the whole group

Desolate Host
>Coordinate living and spirit realms to remove shields from adds, and to keep the room clear for both sides

Mistress Sassz'ine
>Divide groups on the spot to soak Hydra Shots, people with fish have to avoid absolutely all damage to meet the dps checks

Maiden
>Have to coordinate people clearing orbs very quick and have to assign people to soak every orb lane (12 in total), changing every pull

Avatar
>Extremely movement intensive for tanks, soakers, and need very strict timings for soaking the purple beam, and then soaking and moving in p2

KJ
>Too many things to summarize, timing dps on adds, timing dispels, moving with the add debuff, moving for singularities, 2nd intermission, kiting the orb in the last phase...

Yeah, all bosses are the absolute same, it's obvious you've played this game a lot :)
>>
>>387328771
It's a fucking MMO. What do you expect? 25 players fighting a large boss plus tens of mobs is harsh on any engine. Soulsborne bosses work because it's one player vs one or two bosses, you don't have fifty spells flying around from 25 players every two seconds. If WoW bosses were more about dodging fast attacks than it would be less avoiding aoe fire and more praying to your internet/server that you don't get hit by something you clearly dodged. Bosses are really good by MMO standards if that's anything. Every role has something they have to manage and avoid.

This. For something as old as WoW it really puts other MMO's to shame when it comes to raid bosses. Sure they aren't the most visually interesting like FFIXV but they way more mechanically intensive . Atleast for an MMO.

Gameplay =/= lore
Do you think that Garrosh literally took 30000 stabs in the back from 5 rogues?
Or on the topic of artifacts, do you think that rubbing a sweaty handkerchief on your weapon somehow make it 40 million times more powerful, provided you've had a guy read enough books for you?

I'm almost exactly the same except I subbed July 28th I haven't played since early WoD....I manage to get to level 108 but there is so much grindy ass boring as fuck shit quests I just can't take anymore and I don't see how I use to enjoy WoW questing. Also having areas like Highmountain and Stormheim without having immediate access to flying is the dumbest shit ever.

Also for some reason coming back at this point in Legion just seems so overwhelming it isn't even worth trying to get caught back up...pic related
>>
>>387332182
I never implied that in my post you illiterate fucking moron. Less players means it's less harsh on the engine and server. Which in turn means mechanics and visuals are less limited.
>>
>>387332013
Here's hoping they'll be making a WoW2 based around the lore of WC4, like they made WoW based around WC3.
WoW needs some sort of big reset button to fix all this lore twisty bendy they've been doing over the course of 600 expansions.

Legion was terrible and made me lose interest in a couple of months.

some other guy already responded to you but i've got to add, you've got to be literally retarded to think DS bosses are hard or think that memorizing patterns which can boil down to brute-forcing is hard.

WoW 2 should literally just be a remaster of WoW. With more focus on what made questing and the general leveling experience better in Vanilla, and the quality endgame shit like raids of current WoW.
Just remove RDF/LFR/LFD and Heirlooms. People wouldn't hate leveling alts so much if the zones aside from Elywnn/Durotar actually had players in them. You know like a fucking MMO should have

There's also the fact that Destiny had a brand new engine and WoW is still running on the WC3 engine

I guess that's why current WoW raid bosses take days and weeks to down and DS games are finished on release day.

> People wouldn't hate leveling alts so much if the zones aside from Elywnn/Durotar actually had players in them.

Personally I would hate leveling just as much. Doing the same questline for the umpteenth time is not going to be fun just because I have a different person with me this time.
They'd need to invent some sort of dynamic quest system that changes constantly, perhaps depending on current lore changes, so that every time I go to a particular place to level an alt I have a different experience, then it would be fun.
>>
>>387332412
That would be the ideal, and just to make sure people would buy it add some cosmetic bonuses if you have an existing wow account bound to your b.net.
>>
>>387332638
because you play with other retards like yourself and 90% of the bosses are gear checks with don't stand in fire mechanics.
>>
What mechanics does DS have that WoW doesn't have exactly?

actual gameplay unlike stand there and klick 1-8

>>387333058
Yeah instead it's press b to dodge attack and press right click to attack.

DS as in Dark Souls? they are completely different games if you mean Dark Souls.

Yes this is more gameplay than WoW has you forget parry, time attacks, strong attacks and more in WoW you press your rota down like a ape.

He's referring to the moron in the thread comparing a single player action game to a MMORPG.

>>387332412

LFR/LFD is fine in my opinion you don't want to "gate" players, just don't make the bonus so fucking ridiculous that it's more beneficial to LFD/LFR sitting in town over doing this while questing.

And have something that benefits you from leveling alts similar to Garrisons, instead of having 50 Garrisons over 1 account have 1 Garrison across all characters in that account promote fucking alt leveling, when the alts reach max level they benefit you and become one of the end goals (adding an extra building in your Land, or fishing while not playing the character).

but it's blizzard you give them an inch and the will fucking wreck the game in no time flat.

It's /v/, almost every retard compared every game in existence to DS and how every game could be better if it was more like DS.

>>387333229
>parry,
Completely useless outside of pvp and when it's actually useful completely breaks fights. AKA Gwyn, Abyss Watchers
>time attacks
When? Give some examples. Most fights in DS are quite literally dodge the big cone attack and then respond with a right click/trigger. Rinse and repeat.
>strong attacks
Why is this relevant enough to even mention? It's literally just a stronger version of your normal attack, except this time it's slower.
>>
>>387306152
Fuckin this.
Thank you Ian, for finally releasing me from ever wanting to play this fucking game again.


Unless it's legacy servers for Vanilla/TBC/Wrath
