imma stop you right here user, it doesn't
>mechagnomes
shit
why do you still play this game user, everyone quit a long time ago and blizzard is tying up loose ends by banning streamers and youtubers so they can quietly close the game when classic flops, it only gets worse from here, in 2-3 years time they will release their new wow mobile spinoff to the chink market and in maximum 5-6 years activision will close them after they made enough money

Don't be so pessimistic, user. Nagas are awesome.

I'm not a old player, but I'm really enjoying one change or another in the game since Cata. Sure, some friends already quited the game, but I'm still in touch with them and my guild is still active with new friends every week.

It's not the same game anymore, and I will confess that I've had more fun in Legion, for exemple. But at least for me, it's a good game as always!

Diehards retarded enough to sub to play Classic will cause a spike in revenue.

And ultimately all that amounts to is 1-2 hours of genuine content while everything else is skinnerbox busywork to unlock yet another mount that no one will care about because there's not measure of effort or skill involved in obtaining it. Why do you even bother shilling this piece of shit?

In my opinion, classic will only serve for people to realize that certain changes was good for the game.

>kul'tiras just so happens to have quilboar, vrykul under a different name, and mechagnomes
convenient, wonder what other races they can pull out of a human island nation

They can pull as many races as they like out of their fucking ass

what does using old maps mean exactly?

Sage this thread. Fuck Modern WoW. Fuck Blizzard. Go back to your general you paid shill fag.

>In my opinion, classic will only serve for people to realize that certain changes was good for the game.

I'm 100% sure that Blizzard saw the success of OSRS and thought it would be a good idea to do the same
Funny thing is that WoW classic will be treated exactly the same as OSRS

>"oh wow it's just like my childhood!"
>"wait a second, this gameplay and all of this content sucks i want something different"
>cue thousands of "quality of life" updates that turn the game into another boring mindless grind that don't require the players to do anything

When playable Sethrak?

They need a sub-race for all the races.
I really want a new class desu D:

A control point system pve/pvp that allow horde/alliance/naga to control some things.

I liked it!

>nu-wow
oh no no no no no

Where did they even talk about any of this?

BlizzCon

I played during tbc, but i remember nagas being already there???

Blizzard likes to reuse iconic characters/races until they have another idea. I believe Nagas still have good potential in game lore!

WoW lore has always been trash. Ennemies are just loot pinatas.
Btw they never explained why the nagas followed Illidan.

>they're using old maps
What does that mean?

>Btw they never explained why the nagas followed Illidan
Imagine being this much of a lorelet.

that patch is at least 4 months away breh you're shilling too early

Then explain.

Play WC3

I did. And it's never explained. See you are the lorelet.

read chronicles 3

Also it's not explained.

>removing transmogs
I'm laffin

Are you legitimately retarded and can't read?

from the wording it seemed like they were 'removing everything but pants in transmog'

An MMO has to be more than simply experiencing the mechanics of a single dopey raid. There has to be a sense of community associated with the game as well as a sense of accomplishment to the things you do.

great motivation, was it so hard to write "illidan and gang make a new well of eternity/sunwell with zangarmarsh/netherstorm"

That looks fucking retarded, why didn't they just go full mecha?

>Also it's not explained

It is

Literally just Broken Shore 2.0.
I skipped that. I'll skip this. WoW expansions aren't worth playing until the next expac is announced and they stop the progress gating.

>new raid looks great
We've literally seen NOTHING about the new raid. All we know about it is azshara is the end boss.

Are you retarded?

It is!

Not only it's a bullshit explanation but it makes no sense since Illidan decides to give up on fighting the lich king.

Do you even play the game? Full mecha gnomes do exist they've been in the game since Wotlk. These gnomes are flesh gnomes that are trying to turn themselves back into mecha gnomes thus the half and half look.

i know right, they already have the models in game they just need a bit of polishing. the idea of these little abominations running around is more than enough to stop me from playing ever again

>Another loot pinata!
Why WoW fans are so excited about this kind of news? It's the same thing since 15 years.

>remove transmog

Hey, retard, why don't you work on your reading comprehension a little more before you start spilling salt everywhere in a sputtering, autistic flurry.

>decides to give up
to be fair he never gave a fuck about him, he was doing it because of kj but after getting wasted by arthas he went to hide again in outland and prepare his forces to the inevitable revenge.

Who would willingly play one of these?

I know. He gave up two times to be precise. Yet the Nagas still helped him.
I hate this game.

>new zone
Will be devoid of meaningful content and will only exist to funnel free catch-up gear into alts and returning players just like Argus
>flying
Why is this a good thing? I genuinely don't understand flyingfags
>the new raid looks great
We have seen nothing about the new raid.
>mechagnomes
Will just be the new least played race because they're not faggy elves.
Meanwhile: class design will still be garbage, the reward structure of the game will still be fucked, islands and warfronts will still suck, and dungeons will still be boring slogs.

If half mecha-half flesh gnomes running around is what makes you not to want to play when fat humans, fat pandas, chiwawa dogs already exist and furry foxes will soon exist you need to reevaluate yourself my dude.

>Do you even play the game?
Anyone who plays modern WoW nowadays is a fucking retard, so no. Also, even if that were true, these guys do not resemble the old mechagnomes at all. They look like shitty junker cyborgs.

>the game that became shit, just became even shittier!
Ok? Honestly if the whales would stop feeding this game it would be F2P at this point

>>they're using old maps
explain

>remove everything but pants in transmog
Lmao what? Are they unironically removing the ability to mog?

News flash dumbass, Wotlk was over 10 years ago it's not modern WoW.
Also i literally just explained to you these "mecha" gnomes are flesh gnomes who want to become mecha gnomes. It's almost like the weird cyborg look is exactly the intended look, congratulations on suddenly realizing that despite me already explaining that to you.

WoW shit is i'm not defending it, but you're clearly a moron.

all those look nice at least and well designed (vulpera slightly less so but still not too bad). these guys look fucking gross

Learn to read

No, they are giving you the ability to hide everything(like helm/shoulers) for every part minus the pants

Yes that is exactly what's happening. That totally makes logical sense don't bother rereading it to make sure you understood it correctly just post instead.

It's almost like it looks like shit, is something nobody wanted and I don't care what your stupid nu-lore says because the curse of flesh was literally reversable with on-paper instructions back in Wrath thus making this entire subfaction make absolutely no sense other than "making the old mechagnomes a possibility for allied races is too hard because we're lazy untalented retards".

Go shove Ion's dick further down your throat, you fucking tool.

umm sorry sweetie but that was from when wow was quite the toxic cesspool so we can't use that :) please understand and don't forget to buy the latest cash shop mount XD

>tfw this is exactly what a blizzard employee would say

>FOR FUCK SAKE FUCK TRANNIES AND LIBERALS
Make some sense, you child.

Great job on proving me right in that you are a colossal retard. Bravo my man. Once again i literally just said WoW is shit and i am not defending it, i also think they're ugly and the whole thing is stupid. Incredible that you would gloss over that in favor of pretending i am sucking Ion's dick showing you lack basic reading comprehension and basic critical thinking skills. It's very interesting you would just publicly make yourself look like a clown like that.
Also, the lore/in game reason for this is because these junker gnomes have bee locked away in a vault for decades until just now where we broke into it so obviously they have had no contact with the discovered ability to reverse the curse of flesh. Yes it's dumb and almost like these gnomes were just made up on the spot when nobody ever wanted this. But once again you're just outing yourself as a moron.

Don't bother replying, i can assure you that you will just look like a clown again.

Nice mog friend

>mechagnomes are not playable
just why

These would be the least played race in WoW history. At least pandas have the furry market. No one, and I mean NO ONE wants to play as one of these.

>Oh but I do!

Says the lifer on the general forum who's been subscribed since 2004.

>I DONT PLAY WOW ITS STUPID I'M NOT DEFENDING IT IT'S RETARDED

me

I woud have loved to play WOTLK Mechagnomes but not these fucking abominations. It's the same half ass shit they pulled with Void Elves. I guarantee is the reason why they aren't doing any allied races people want.

This is one of the worst looking things in the game, I can't believe this is real

>remove everything but pants in transmog
Why? Why can't I raid nude?

Male kul tirans actually look decent with the right setup

Humans are humans. There'll always be a market to play as them. I mean the male Kul Tiran is basically a tall dwarf in terms of aesthetic and personality.

>cue thousands of "quality of life" updates that turn the game into another boring mindless grind that don't require the players to do anything
But that didn't happen to OSRS, did it? At any rate, it's far more popular than their newer editions

People only say that about OSRS because they're eternally butthurt about the GE.

We'll see if they can beat the gnomes in a few months, that player tracker already have them in the bottom and zandalaris are in top now.

I'm posting in a WoW obviously i am relatively well versed in the game, that doesn't mean i still play it. Everything i have told you was mentioned at the last blizzcon and has been on dozens of game/mmo sites it's pretty basic information.
Poor little brainlet. Don't worry this board is anonymous this thread will be lost in the abyss and nobody will ever see your stupidity here. You can have a fresh start.

WoW reddit is full of the GAYEST FAGGOTS EVER.

I like mobility, overcomplicated bullshit and stuff you can use creatively. Should I main Druid, Monk, or Demon Hunter?

>creativity
>overcomplicated bullshit
>mobility

Play a different game. No, not FFXIV. Play an action game or something.

worldofwargraphs.com/global-stats/races

Zandalari are a percent ahead it looks like, but I think the numbers are still needing to stabilize before we can make a good assessment. Kul Tirans definitely aren't going to be topping the graph though.

real reason they're adding half assed mecha gnomes is so they can turn the gnome king into a cyborg so they can add to his list of accomplishments
>invent robot birds
>lose capitol
>fail to regain capitol
>get fatally injured
>get robot parts

What do you mean by old maps

I always just thought that Illidan was a ill wicked sorcerer and just performed a spell to summon some long lost creatures. Creatures that then willingly serve because Illidan he is a pretty cool guy

>overcomplicated bullshit and stuff you can use creatively
You won't find that in WoW. Every single spec and class is braindead to play none of them are intricate or complicated in any manner.

That's a form of balancing the game.

I was wondering in the theoretical timeline I want to go back to retail if I renew my subscription for classic where I’m gonna play a druid. I love action games but I really like MMOs because they’re social and have a world.

this expansion is garbage. Can't wait for classic and the void expac where blizz will actually have to try again after the BFA trainwreck

1. Don't resub to Classic. It's being handled by Actiblizzard, you should know better than to give them money by now.
2. There is no 2. Don't fucking give them money.

Oh my fucking god the mechagnomes are actually real. Holy shit I did not think something THAT shitty and low quality would actually come from Blizzard. Like they've at least maintained a good visual design in their games as they've gotten worse and worse be jesus fucking christ this looks like absolute bargain bin garbage. Thank god for classic.

Call it what you will but removing vast majority of interesting abilities and class flavor and making every spec just 4 buttons is pretty garbage. Resource doesn't even matter anymore either i think arcane mage is the only spec in the game that can actually run out of mana.

>>remove everything but pants in transmog
OP...
"Every item slot except pants will be able to be hidden via transmog."

I’m only gonna sub if there’s rppvp servers on launch. If they have content that I view as being worth the price, then I’ll buy it. Living any other way is needlessly holding yourself back from actually being able to have fun.

The designs for the mecha-gnomes seems like they came from someone wanting a "handi-capable" race. Instead of giving a race people actually want, there's some PR person salivating at the inevitable Kotaku articles: "as a physically disabled person, WoW finally has a race for ME."

Your taste in servers is exquisite but I strongly disagree with your stance because it's how it allowed the industry to get so bad.

Even

>"remove everything but pants" in transmog

would've been clearer.

If Classic is done properly, I couldn't care less who was behind it

>complain about garbage
>keep buying it anyway

Haven't played since 8.0 but I'm thinking of making the mistake and resubbing again. How've things changed? Do I want an enhancement shaman or a feral druid?

>How've things changed?

Uh, well, there's a new raid, I guess... You can finally roll a Zandalari troll... And oh! They're promising to fix everything NEXT patch!

Hopefully if classic gets big they’ll realise how badly they fucked up over the years. Probably not though lol.

I think you're reading too much into it.

Capcom made a comeback against all odds. Maybe you're right. Until they unfuck their shit though I'm not touching classic with a ten foot pole. I really hope they don't fuck it up though, for your guy's sake.

What the fuck are they gonna do with Sylvanas? Literally everything is pointing to her getting raid boss'd, but it's being hammered in so hard that it's gotta be a bait and switch.

>it's gotta be a bait and switch.
She is going to become something else an save us like Kerrigan in sc2.

>Every new patch all previous gear and the majority of the content is rendered irrelevant

Amazing how a game with 15 years of material feels completely empty with nothing to do.

that doesn't make any fucking since. How do you be a mechagnome trying to turn yourself back into a mechagnome. How the fuck would they get flesh if they were a mechagnome.

>WoW cuckold pay piggies get excited at any new patch update
there's so saving these people. I don't blame blizzard for doing as little as possible desu

Because of the curse of flesh, which you're obviously not familiar with because you've probably never played this game or payed attention to the lore.

almost as sad as people excited for a 14yo version of the game

that is fucking stupid

cringe redditor

Just move on like the rest of us. You do not want to waste your money and time on this garbage expansion. MAYBE wait until next patch or expansion. Or just drop the game altogether.

>Halo 3, 4 and reach ported to PC

Blizzard feels internally manipulated at this point. You can't fuck up that many big IPs unintentionally
