N'zoth is the final boss. Wowww who didn't see that coming?

blizzard is only good at making monster girls

Lor'themar has become a sexy daddy just like Khadgar.

>build up nzoth since cata
>hes the last boss of one of the worst expansions yet

pretty underwhelming. he deserves his own black empire expansion

not an old god expansion btw

>no night elf in sight
a beautiful world. thank u sylvanas

>Here come the FF14 queers again.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA WOWFAGS BTFO

LEAK user CONFIRMED.

>It’s an old gods are behind everything episode
Makes sense can’t have either the Horde or Alliance actually lose so there always needs to be a cop out antagonist
The only thing missing now is Sylvanas getting her redemption

y-you...
YOU MEAN...??
SOMEONE PREDICTED THAT NZOTH WAS GOING TO BE THE FINAL BOSS??? OH MY GOD HOW DID THEY DO IT OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Wow what a twist

STOP giving Blizzard your money!
YOU ARE THE PROBLEM
YOU are the reason why they are shitting on diablo and letting Starcraft die off.

Attached: 1472425442497.jpg (625x625, 46K)

That was kind of anticlimactic.

I was never a fan of n'zoth because it took so long to even know what he looked like and because he's responsible for most of the "lol corruption"
if we got a black empire expansion I'd want it to be c'thun/yogg power hour

Stupid theory time!

things we know:
>Sylvanas made a pact with Helya, Sylvanas got a lamp, but her side of the bargain was never specified (legion questing)
>Helya's kvaldir have been battling the naga for centuries for dominance of the seas (cataclysm questing)
>Helya survived her raid encounter and is expanding her influence (island expeditions)
>Helya had under her control, a large number of dark valkyr (legion again)
Basically my theory is Sylvanas' plot is her side of the bargain, eliminating the naga so Helya can rule the seas. Helya still has shit Sylvanas wants, as she was the original queen of the valkyr, and can presumably make more.

>Anime image.
Into the trash it goes.

You can't tell retards that the thing they invested so much time and money into isn't good. Retards don't like that and will protect that thing any way they can.

I genuinely think that the Helya stuff is gonna be ignored or retconned

Remember, what I like is good and what I don't like is bad. Objectively.

What's the point of shitting up threads then? Aren't you retarded for that as well?

>jaina and mr nobody killed Azshara
>mother fucking Azshara
>who was know to be on par with Archimonde and Kil'Jaeden 10k years before already
Of course she's not dead because muh twist but still. What the fuck

>What's the point?

Some people probably like watching people squirm and chimp out.

>there are people who expect blizzard stories to not be complete dogshit and cliche as fuck
They already ruined the Starcraft story in the same exact way.
>oh no, people actually like Kerrigan? SHE WAS GOOD ALL ALONG THE VILLAIN IS ACTUALLY THIS ANCIENT EVIL

holy fuck this expansion is so bad

Dude we beat up Sargeras last expansion just shut the fuck up about powerlevel bullshit ok

You are giving them too much credit, they probably already forgot that Helya thing

>muh powerlvl

Malfurion who is on par with Azshara can't even kill an ud archer.

Sneed.

no you didn't, you beat up Argus, half a titan soul and a baby compared to Sargeras. The Titans "pulled" Sargeras into their room and trapped him there, you had almost nothing to do with it.

It was a whole titan soul, wut

your theory holds water because bwom/lich king have no idea what the fuck sylvanas is doing. the last raid will probably have helya taking azshara's place which was somehow part of n'zoth's plan all along.
that or and are right and blizzard forgot when they copy pasted norse mythology into the game

Sounds pretty retarded and boring. Why not play video games instead?

>killed by players
>2 guys aproach and take all the fame

WoW is dogshit kys shill

Whats current player powerlevel atm? Are they stronger than sargeras yet? Why villians even trying to fight them at this point?

ffxiv's combat is still dog shit and the leveling system is still garbage so not playing
i do not care how good the story is

Did N'Zoth save mommy Azshara?

>Sounds pretty retarded and boring

So is this still how WoW handles cinematics? The players do all of the work and then the NPCs play out the story as if the players don't exist?

oopsie

Wait, so you get to the end of this dungeon and you don't even get to kill the boss? She just gets whisked away?

>I don't give a shit about FFXIV.
Which is why you keep spamming VVXIV shit in WoW threads.

Wow, it's nothing.

You do not exist.
You are just a camera with HP bar.
You are there only to witness great deeds of other heroes.

You ever play Warcraft III? Notice how the plot always revolved around a central cast of hero units, even though there were countless foot soldiers in every battle? You're a foot soldier.

NNNNNNNOOOOO ASMONGOLOIDBROS HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?

rent free

Apprently not you. You seem to be busy shitting in threads instead of playing.

When do they bring back Kel'Thuzad?
Why do the best villains get so little screen time?

LMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOO

The player was supposed to be someone like Rexxar.

Jaina and the blood elf leader dude beat Azshara? Fucking how? Isn't she supposed to be so ungodly strong that even the burning legion feared her?

Attached: 1560340924422.jpg (506x506, 37K)

Why the fuck are they fighting side by side, when just a while ago the alliance assassinated a horde leader, fucked their fleet and tried to finish them off for good right before falling into Nazjatar. Can't we just throw this forced cooperation shit into the trash and stab each other? I hope they both blame the other side for releasing N'Zoth (sadly not going to happen and instead we are going to have some bullshit excuses because Baine wants to suck human cock)

Lovecraft was racist so that mean Blizzard is racist for referencing Lovecraft.

You can't save that game even if you brought back Arthas/Kelthuzad, etc. because exists

Shit writing.

a broken one and he still killed the players, it was literally unwinnable, you only beat him because the actual grown up daddy titans ejaculated over the party

Jaina literally has muh human potential

It's literally the same thing Alliance side.
>"beware of me... i'm listening now father"
>"oh Thrall your cock is so huuuuuge, wtf i love Horde again"

How underwhelming.

I want a Black Empire expansion, he deserves better.

Also Brann best be a traitor, otherwise the whole heart of azeroth stuff is cliche and generic as fuck

because most big villains weren't killed by the players, players either A) Injure them a little or B) Put them out of their misery once some lore character has already beaten them up

>tfw you try to stop the franchise from going to shit but are foiled by the most pussy whipped fucker in existence

It depends on the situation, really. You fit any and all situations, except you're not above named and voiced heroes. XxCloudStryfexX will never be the one who canonically killed The Lich King, sorry to say.

I'm saying that Blizzard is a complete fuck up of a company and for the last decade and longer they have been doing absolutely nothing but shitting all over their beloved franchises. You are literally allowing them to shit over their products that people used to love more and more every single time that you keep giving money to this fucking trashfire of a company.

Anyone that pays money to blizzard is against gaming as a whole.

Thanks for reminding me about nu-Bliz murdering my favorite IPs.
I used to be optimistic about sequels.

Why don’t mods take down these threads? They’re 100% not fan made and are obvious stealth marketing.

Guess next patch it's N'zoth prison or Ny'alotha with him as raid boss. Where Sylvanas will do whatever she has to to redeem herself since she can't be a baddy bad with Golden as writer.

no matter how much WoW sucks it's still pretty much the peak when it comes to MMORPGs. FF is niche for weeb trannies, ESO is mediocre since the start, BDO is chinkbait and everything else is some form of Nexon-tier F2P cashgrab

honestly sometimes you don't need to kill the villain to make for a good dungeon

Fact: WotLK would have been vastly superior if it ended with the Lich King winning

Wow... so much better and less predictable than Emet-Selch, Amaurot's Illusions and Innocence. Glad I have these cool Marvel cinematics to keep me up to date.

The villian winning will literally never happen in WoW

Even runescape and Maplestory way past their prime are still vastly superior to WoW.
Even fucking mobile gacha games manage to be a better experience than WoW, that is saying a fucking lot for a game where you gamble money for JPEGs

Lets spend a moment to analyze quality of wow bosses and WoW lore

>Rag MC
Merely a setback, returns in Cata
>Onyxia Ony Lair
Merely a setback. returns in Wrath, and after that returns in Cata again
>Nef 1.0 Vanilla BWL
Merely a setback, returns in Cata
>Hakkar 1.0 Vanilla Zg
Merely a setback, returns in Cata, still doesn’t die
>Ossirian AQ 20
Literal who, dead
>C'thun AQ 40
Presumed to be dead
>Kel'Thuzard Naxx40
Merely a setback, returns in Wrath

As we can see, out of 7 major vanilla bosses only 2 dies. One of them (Ossirian) never mentioned before/after he was killed, so we can cross him out.

This brings us to 1/6 ratio of bosses actually fucking dying and to unprecedented lows of shit writing.

But!

Since there is more than 0% chance that C’thun might be resurrected in old god xpack, this boosts quality of wow writing to 100% shit

Without counting double resurrections (Onyxia) and possible future resurrections (Kel’Thuzard in shadowlands xpack)

>But I'm not, I'm just the guy saying that WoW is absolute fucking garbage and that there are a million better MMOs out there. My posts never talk about FFXIV directly.

>Fact: WotLK would have been vastly superior if it ended with the Lich King winning
How would you even do that?
Imagine beating the raid, hearthing back to Dalaran, then what? Nothing's changed. That would feel like the most hollow loss of all time.

C'thun isn't dead, neither is Yogg, it was quite explicit in lore than Old Gods couldn't be killed or Azeroth would die, they merely got weakened/inprisoned again

Lmao who the fuck writes this shit? Its the same rollercoaster over and over and over and over again. Why did originality die ffs...

Would have been an amazing curveball had they done that with the Lich King
Fake-out everyone at ICC by it not being the final raid
Actual final raid is a follow-up to the Icecrown events where you act as the Lich King's enforcers as he takes back Northrend piece by piece and only in the aftermath of the Tirion boss battle do you get resurrected and freed from Lich King control

Would have both been a satisfying raid AND kept the greatest villain warcraft had alive for future use

Too much work on Blizzard's end. That's why the villian never wins.

Its so fucking easy too to salvage the finale. Have the xel'naga shit both destroy the zerg hivemind and be a massive psionic beacon to attract what remains of the xel'naga back. Have jimmy put a bullet in kerri then walk away while tychus talks to Valerian and recover her body. Keeps tychus around, insures that Valerian keeps the Mengsk tradition of can't be trusted and truly resolves Raynor's character arc.

Why sarcastically praise the twist? This is the logical conclusion to the narrative, which is absolutely fine. There doesn't need to be a twist.

here's where the timegating could have worked in their advantage
wait until someone has finished the Lich King encounter, then a week later announce this is the actual final raid

Are there time cards for XIV? I don't want to pay a monthly subscription.

old gods was already in vanilla

>punctuated greentext
Yep, that's a newfag.

Im under the impression that old gods cant just be obliterated by a titan like they did Y'sharj because it leaves a gaping would in Azeroth. I think that killing one is still fine, its just the titans arent able to do it and all the titan constructs failed

Why do people still watch this sperge

go read it again yourself, it clearly says she was busy with the ritual when he barged in

I 100% agree with this.
It's amazing how Blizzard are creatively bankrupt.

he kills the entire raid

found the nu-wow player

>This is a story we've been preparing years in advance and we are finally unfolding it before you

Thank you Blizzard! I love every little bit of it!

It states that she was "fully prepared" and that malfurion had the intention to kill her.
You think that Malfurion was a retard and didn't know her powerlvl? This isn't WoW.

Shit attracts flies.

> and he still killed the players
Uh, no he didn't.
>you only beat him because the actual grown up daddy titans ejaculated over the party
After you kick the shit out of him. They literally needed you to weaken him, otherwise they would have sealed Argus up at once.
That makes no sense your way

I wish they made Warcraft 4 which disregards WoW plot

Dude a couple of those NPCs directly DID die and were resurrected

It's really bizzare how badly all the new Hearthstone trailers rhyme and flow. The old ones weren't even that great but this shit is so bad it actually makes you notice. Same with the league of baddies expac.

Don't be fooled. She is an Alliance fan, and seeing Jaina tortured and imprisoned for most of the expansion, isn't exactly progressive for the Alliance.

C'Thun was introduced in Warcraft III dumbo.

And they still won't be a playable race

LK failed on purpose, dumbfuck mop babby. His plan was to elevate players up to his power level by throwing undead hordes at them, defeat players, and then rise them as most powerful death knights of all time, all of which is reflected in his encounter finale.
Sadly, since villains cant win, Thirion Fordring pulled cheats on him and shattered frostmourne.

Well, highborne are pretty much playable, roll nelf mage.

He didn't fail on purpose to kill/catch sylvanas, jaina, etc. you dumbfuck.

C'thun wasn't, but the Old Gods as a concept were introduced in the manual, and there was the Faceless Ones and the Forgotten One in the Frozen Throne undead campaign.

I wouldn't be surprised if they finally ditch the retarded faction fight that is what has caused most of the shit writing since cata, I simply cannot see them being that retarded that they think after all this they can go back to faction fighting for the third/fourth/however many time

If you genuinely care about Warcraft story/lore you have brain damage.

>If we kill her, she wins
What the fuck is this about? Azhara invites us to her palace for some reason, fights us while she drains energy from some seals, we charge up the seals bit then we use the power stored in the seals to "kill" her but then oh no the seals are gone now the big bad ancient evil is released. What the fuck? Why didn't azshara just stand there, it seems her mere presence is draining the seals. Why did we even bother going there?

She is the next night elf leader to be possessed.

>it's become impressive at this point how much ass blizzard dumps on night elves
someone at blizzard HAS to have a hatred for night elves on an unimaginable scale. They've been getting dabbed on since cata with basically zero reprieve

World of Gaycraft more like

It pervades WoW, it pervades SC2, it will probably pervade Diablo and Overwatch as you said. Blizzard has no originality and can't come up with unique villains or evil forces and to top it all off, they're not even original about the Old Gods, they just blatantly ripped it off from Lovecraft.

mommy milkies

This, but unironically.
The Old Gods is the only piece of WoW lore that still holds its story afloat.

"there must always be a lich king" was the kind of shit writing I meant pre-cata which isn't related to faction fighting
pretty much all the major shit since then that has been fucking stupid or retarded plot points related to a faction fight that they can't resolve decisively militarily for either side ,but which they've also set up to be stupid and irrelevant several times now only to revive it requiring them to rape the plot further

Not that, but the fact that the nelves bow down to the humans, that there are still Orcs in Ashenvale and that Tyrande didn't even give a fuck (this was the main mission of the sentinels and why they were created).
That they send their nelf warrior to fight the scourge (somehow they should give a fuck about the human pala and their issues) but don't help the Belves like they did in Tft (nope instead they will kill them in TBC ;) )

That's what it is in WoW. It's just the north of EK and they were already contained by the forsaken.
Tell me what should be the nelf priority if they had to send ppl to the EK : Help their cousins against the scourge who are trying to survive or help le strong human pala fighting on a territory which already belongs to the scourge?

Is this the with diablo as the secretly good guy who was doing everything to get the mortals ready for the unseen alien force?

Will WoW cucks ever recover from this shit expansion?

Oh it has a score?

It will teach you feminist how to raise a son in a world full of angry men ;_)

And that's not the case for the Belves territory? Seriously they are on the verge of extermination, you really think they shouldn't help them like they did in TFT?
But again that's just some small details. Like I said, in general, nelves were already butchered in vanilla, and it's worst if you read wota.

Old Gods were retconned to be just agents of the Void Lords, so they're not THAT powerful anymore. But that's not "it" either. Supposedly, according to some leaks, N'Zoth getting freed changes the state of the entire game world until the end of the expansion.

Who's that elf faggot?

Most people don't even seem to care at all about what's happening. They're just in it for the loot and the mountspetscheevos. I bet some don't even know who these people are.
>ah, some one eyed elf guy and these chicks I want to breed, pretty lame, where's my ultra cool mount I deserve for watching this waste of a time cinematic?

Why won’t she clean up her makeup?

classic. the problem with bfa is the only interesting thing left is the lore and raids (meh), at least with classic the lore takes a second seat as the gameplay and systems (bar the honor system) are interesting and engaging

I guess all out war between the Horde and the Alliance wasn't remarkable enough to change the state of the entire game world even though it was THE SELLING POINT OF THIS ENTIRE RETARDED EXPANSION.

This so much.

leaks were all bullshit larp (big fucking shock), Azshara is dead and the chains on N'zoth are broken and the world didn't change

>all out war between the Horde and the Alliance wasn't remarkable enough
>it was THE SELLING POINT OF THIS ENTIRE RETARDED EXPANSION.
That shit's been going on forever, and it's always extremely underwhelming.

I can't believe how much the tides have turned, it's ridiculous.
If you travelled back in time to 2010 and showed me this, I would laugh in your face.

>seething

Was the raid cleared on the live servers? I thought the trailer was only datamined. I don't follow this game all that closely anymore.

yes. They keep the cinematics hidden from datamining now

>hidden from datamining
How's that work?

The AMA leak is true after all
>imgur.com/a/0isO9sG

Probably encrypted or something. Blizzard could easily hide all the datamined information if they wanted to, they choose to have it out.

>Ethereals
god I hope this is true

When you beat the boss you download the encryption file or whatever which unlocks the cinematic, after that you can give that file to anyone and they too can unlock their cinematic even if they havent beaten the boss yet. You can read about in on wowhead somewhere.

You should know by now how Blizzard handles this shit 99% of the time:
N'zoth grabbed her, impridlsons/tortures/turns/whatevers her, she will be reskinned boss/villain ala Detheroc? Kael'thas and all the others, maybe a bit of sob story but ultimately a dead raid boss with N'zoth as the final expansion boss.
The obly thing you can hope for is that Blizzard doesn't want to upset people and tries to shoehorn some kind of redemption plot in for her and not killing her but letting her remain as a neutral/slightly friendly entity' which lost everything' and can be a humble not-villain npc.

Why is the story of WoW so shit guys WHYYYYY

Lady Preston being Onyxia was like the only good twist in WoW lore.

Because they hired gayass fanfic tier roastie as their main writer
Because they hide the main plot behind books that aren't related to the game at all and you can't learn ingame anything about it just to make that roastie sell more books
Because they fucked up the lore so hard at the end of pandaria that they can't recover it anymore at all

Multiple writers over the course of a long enough time leads to a lack of consistency. WoW's writing has always had flaws because it had to retcon Warcraft's writing from the beginning.

Because she betrayed the Hordes ideals and uses it as her army in her war against life itself, which is quite retarded considering non-forsaken races probably like to live, can see what she is doing and are STILL obeying her orders i.e. the majority of the Horde is still on her side and would obey her over their racial leaders probably.

Forsakens explanation of being in the Horde during vanilla
>It's an alliance of convenience. Much like the Orcs and Trolls, the Forsaken are widely loathed by the wider world and would stand little chance of survival on their own. However, since they share practically nothing with the rest of the Horde culturally they start at "neutral" reputation with the rest of the Horde rather than "friendly." This is also reflected in their questing and NPC backgrounds, as Forsaken are are often viewed with distrust and kept at arms length by the other Horde races, effectively making them the black sheep of the herd.

Players literally beat a corrupted Titan. There's no relativity in terms of power creep in WoW. One day you're struggling against the Naga, the other you're fucking up Old Gods. If you want a good story play FFXIV

>Good story
Lmao dumb weeb

>she was hyped to be on par to Kiljay and Archy
well they both got their shit kicked in TWICE so comparing their power levels isn't intimidating anymore. and an old god has never lived past their debut. so it all falls flat

>Players literally beat a corrupted Titan.
Oh yeah, there is also that.

I still remember when fighting a dragon was considered a massive undertaking in lore. Now we kill gods and the reaction is nothing but "Oh, but the REAL big bad guy is just around the corner!"

>chosen one shit in a multiplayer game
>good
Why does it feel like mmo players just have awful taste and anytime they just happen to like a good game it's a coincidence?

They're not MMOs, they're THEMEPARK MMOs, huge difference.
A true MMO is something like Runescape and WoW Classic where you're just an adventurer and nothing else.

>the first raid's final boss is an elemental lord
Yeah I don't think there was ever any consistency.

It was at least neat when we fought C'Thun because it actually felt like a whole army taking on the Qiraji instead of a Seattle gang of murderhobos shanking everything in a corridor to get to the final boss who ends up being a jobber. A jobber whose corpse you can't even loot.

God I miss Garrosh, he just should have kill all these retarded fucks

Garrosh was pretty okay to be honest
Tired of all this alliance shit, every race should stay by themselves

Themepark and sandbox refers to the gameplay of an mmo, not the story.

More buttons to press while raiding is cool and all, but that's only one part of a class. "Buttons you press while standing still in a raid and dpsing" is just one specific situation.

special type of retard right here

the classes have things that differentiate them but they also lack any sort of thematic coherence
basically the things that make classes "unique" are that they are designed to either be "selfish" or "supportive" i.e. blackmage (blm) is a selfish dps because it provides no group support through buffs/debuffs or combat ressing, it's "flavor" is to be intentionally overturned compared to every other dps but this isn't thematic it's just numbers

You mean "incredible" skills like the Eye of Kilrogg?

Wow.... you're right... I'm missing it... incredibly powerful and useful...
And anyway standing still in raid and dpsing is 90% of Classic gameplay

>the only thing that matters is my dps rotation while raiding
Look, you obviously don't want the same thing that classic players want, can't you just accept that they're different games for different people?

Blizz is in a shitty spot
If sylvanas gets raided, the Horde will seem weaker than ever, having sieged 2 warchiefs in like less than 3 in game years.
If sylvanas doesnt get raided, one of the most evil characters of the setting, who genuinely sees the horde as an expendable asset to be used, gets scott free.

>I don't want flavor or character in my role playing game

Absolutely, positively fuck right off you MOUNTSPETSCHEEVOS scum.

have sex

The obvious solution for all their racial incompatibility bullshit would be three factions, the introduction of a third faction would make for a great expansion and give it that DAOC feel on the pvp where you could make something more coherent out of the whole mess and more competitive on the warzones at the same time.

This would take creativity and coding which they seem to have run out of these days though.

I don't care about rotations, who the fuck would? Only someone who doesn't understand what gameplay means

cope

Yes, because you are roleplaying as a warlock, not dance dance revolution

Well for one, warlocks were the tanky cloth class that had all kinds of debuffs. As opposed to mages, who were really squishy but had tons of slows and cc to make up for that.

he's not wrong, xiv classes are extremely bloated in terms of raw number of buttons that you have compared to complexity

Okay, thank you for leaving retail and never come back please. Maybe they'll listen to real players who understand how the game works instead of the Moonguard erp élite. What the hell. I can't fucking believe it.
>"Let's ruin a game for muh rp"

Ok this is the problem here. You want a game that's just about raidlogging. Not everyone wants that though.

>why is the rp in an mmoRPg
never go full retard

Its logical. They cant compete with PoE.

Who are you calling queer? Ya queer.

to be fair the players are empowered by the titan soul of azeroth and fighting alongside jaina at the time

literally the same game

Hardly. FFXIV took what WoW did and improved upon it. XIV is what WoW SHOULD be.

Why wont you go and farm more world quests for AP, cuck?

There are many games where you can't RP but they're called RPG anyway, fuck off

Says the WOW Tranny.

goddamnit fag teso is shit

Because I think it's not makeup, but tear streaks burned into her skin

get back with me when their subs drop. Blizz treats them like shit because they take it.

Why wont you go and farm more Elemental Waterlords reputation to join a stupid ass retarded spank and tank raid, cuck?
Oh and for the Mythic raid carry it will be 1 million gold thank you classicuck!

it's the exact opposite of what the core diablo fanbase would want and they know what the fanbase can get like when they see something they don't like.

Dont you have phone?

Metacritic begs to differ. Sub counts beg to differ.

Don't forget
>WoW's Hel equivalent was called Hela in Wrath (Jotunheim aspirants)
>The kvaldir were sealed away before naga even existed (per-Sundering) until freed by the player character's actions on Broken Hill (Howling Fjord questing)
>pre-naga kvaldir were called the ancient enemy of the naga (Cataclysm)
Warcraft is dumb.

>sub counts peaked in wotlk and have been declining ever since
Are you agreeing with me or something?

>metacritic begs to differ

here we fucking go. you probably use twitch viewer counts as an argument as well.

what a complex and indulging story Warcraft has, truly Kubrickesqe

Literaly seething from being cucked by daily farm

>Farming rep for elementals
Lmao

She doesn't die anyway + nelves are busy getting raped in darkshore

Wow its fucking nothing

>lovecraftian ripoffs
Wow amazing writing

they're saving those two for the epic and cool tearing apart of the alliance.

>Hardly. FFXIV took what WoW did and improved upon it. XIV is what WoW SHOULD be.
it actually hurts that people think this, ffxiv took everything wow did completely WRONG and ran with it
in every way that wow lost it's rpg elements xiv goes balls deep in casualizing and neutering the mmorpg genre

and this is what zoomers and gamer moms actually want

XIV is thriving while WoW continues to die. No negativity in the dojo!

cool

Give me five reasons to play FFXIV.
You can't mention that you get to hang with trannys or story.
I don't play WoW either.

Prove it.

If you want a “real” mmo play Everquest or FFXI

Maybe a few hundred thousand, but if you seriously think they're still above 2 million, you're retarded.

Well, that says it all about this shit games resounding success.

>alliance ever doing anything slightly contentious ever
They let literal insane void worshippers join their faction that sucks light cock and there hasn't been a single mention of them not fitting in, once you put on the blue tabard, you become just as much of a pussy as their symbol

just wait for the inevitable free weekend once the initial player count dies down and form an opinion of your own.

When did mmo players transition from people who wanted to play an rpg in a multiplayer persistent world to people who want to do nothing but farm raids and linear hallway dungeons?

The only Blizzdrones I see are on the official forums and MMOChampion, since literally anyone sane is banned from those places.

Why should I convince you to play something that you don't want to play, fag? Go play whatever tickles your fancy, I'm not a goddamned marketer.

Bitch just try the the free trial

Got an active sub count to prove it?

Shandris Feathermoon and Thalyssra are there

this was during the early content drought and doesn't include asian sub numbers
a new raid just came out today so this numbers is equal or up

xiv has AT MOST a million subs from player activity trends, but we'll never know for sure because they dont publish anything (even expansion sales)

if they were beating wow they would say so because it would get them huge press

literally who

>blizzdrones
holy macaroni when was the last time you visited

Blizzdrones don't defend shit, they just take it anyway.
They eat a pile of shit, bitch it taste like shit and then buy more shit to eat it to then bitch how shitty it is some more.

This industry didn't go to shit by the business alone, no, it took millions of fucking losers to play WoW for 15+ years for them to understand "hey we can get away with anything here"

>Go play whatever tickles your fancy, I'm not a goddamned marketer.
Yes you are, hence the reason you can’t fuckoff from a thread that has nothing to do with FFXIV

I can go there right now and find people who shit on all criticism as "negativity", then see them cross-post in Politics to cry about drumpf. It's a double whammy.

Shandris Feathermoon and Thalyssra

Combat wise I would say that most classes have decent flavor but beyond that they don’t have any real non combat abilities like classic WoW

>doesn't include asian sub numbers
lol

Don't you understand, silly? The Old Gods™ are nothing. They were pawns all along. The real threat are The First Ones™ pulling the strings from the shadows behind the shadows.

When vanilla WoW came out

8.2 is a massive embarassment compared to 7.2

who? you're going to have to speak louder son

It's the ultimate theme park MMO. The end game is just running around and collecting currency from FATES. Ultimate bosses are a joke the progression runs range from 1-14 days depending on your groups skill. You're better off playing WoW unless you favor Japanese communities.

ah but the real threat is the older ones.>youtube.com/watch?v=ixtWdYkJbdE

yes? you do know that the asian api is completely separate from the na/eu one right
that's why they have to be manually updated on wowprogress (which directly accesses the api to report on na/eu boss kills)

Thalryssa has hardly any beef with Azshara because she hid in a bubble comfortably. And Shandris is a literal who among Nelves.

Thanks for proving XIV is the undisputed king of MMO's.

Go back to your /vg/ faggot threads and fuck off faggots. It's a containment board for a fucking reason. FF14 players are emotional unstable trannie faggots. Your faggotry can only be permitted in /vg/.

Here's the leaked ending of BfA

Some irrelevant Night Elf sucking human cocks and some asspull retconned NightElf race who change their name and went to Horde but becomes Night Elf again just to steal the lore the the Night Elves and shit a little bit more on this race.

I kinda like old god lore
But the gameplay is just too trash in this xpac for me to resub

>t-the game has no content
Quality > Quantity

Nobody wants MMOs on this board, cuck. Head on back to your own tranny containment, of which there are what, three different versions? Because you can't decide which flavor of shit you want to eat.

What would be cool is if Azeroth actually loses at the end of the expansion. Warcraft hasn't allowed shit to happen since Warcraft 3.

Jesus, after experiecing shadowbringers I don't know how there are people defending modern wow, pure fucking garbage

The game has years worth of content because it doesn't become outdated and dead like WoW's content.

Where have you been? Almost every final raid boss isn't truly killed and you just banish them/put them to sleep for a bit and you rematch them a few expansions down the road.

God Blizzard hates Night Elves

i do

can you read? that was during a downtime and a new content patch and raid that just came out
i.e. you'd be stupid not to expect that number to be equal or less than the current sub numbers
now provide ANY numbers that show xiv to be anywhere near that

>an mmo that just crested a million
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
got any numbers to back that up or are you just desperately floundering to not get btfo

I think we're going to unleash all the old gods and then its the end of the world(s). They will "rebirth" the game kind of like FFXIV. Too much shit to reboot at this point, It's the only way.

Because she wants everyone to know that she has a deepthroat fetish

It's so pathetic that the FF14 players even admit that there is nothing to fucking do in an expansion that released less than 2 weeks ago. And...
>quality
All classes feel worse. Gear is even more worthless. And all the content is time gated right now. You FF14 players are so fucking pathetic.

Hunter and Warlock pet control alone was game changing, especially in world pvp / AV and original Razorgore strat was literally dependent on hunter pet manual control. The fact that you are disparaging niche but obviously unique and flavorful skills really says a lot about your brain cells.

>that was during a downtime
It hasn't gotten any better.

less than a month after uldir (not even mythic) opening is not a fucking dead period retard

Nah, dude. 8.2 is 10x stronger.

goddamn night elf fans are fuckin intolerable

Why the fuck can't you handle Kel'Thuzad's name?

...That was it?

Sorry what is there to do in WoW 2 weeks after an expansion? Do you want to dig up raid release dates? Mythic+ release dates?

>You think Nelves in Alliance and Undead in Horde wasn't retarded and forced?
When I heard about this I knew better than to pay any attention to WoW lore.

Nah it's quite clear no one wants FF14 here. Trust me I tried to play FF14. To you wow players imagine this, imagine every full server is full of faggots from moonguard that make up of 90% of the community. The last 10% is normal people playing. The trannie memes are not a fucking joke on FF14. The game has the most mentally unstable players of any game in existence that cry for a safe space to be a little faggot. I have no idea how those 10% of players continue with this garbage.

nice toys gayboi

>it's the exact opposite of what the core diablo fanbase would want

except for the new content they just added?

it is for the massive casual population of the game that doesnt even raid
at that point the game had already devolved into world quest farming that was the exact same as legion

ah

>Fuck yeah Orcs don't need help from those fags
Orcs were never as successful as when they were by themselves.

>the new content
LMAO

still waiting on those xiv numbers, tranny

It was always heading in that direction even from vanilla, the difference is datamining and established doctrines regarding MMOs weren't created yet and people were a lot more casual and clueless about it all, taken in by the mystery and gimmick of MMOs cause most people didn't actually play EQ or Ultima etc etc.

Vanilla also had a shit ton of unfair but fun elements that were slowly taken out, such as manipulating neutral factions to create gigantic fights in STV Bay. These unfair elements made the world more dangerous and prone to conflict natural or artificial.

Honestly the only reason TBC even had world pvp was because it came off from vanilla when server communities were still around and everyone wanted to fuck over the other guys from the other faction. Once daily quests and arena came along in full swing barely anyone cared about the over world outside of dailies. Dailies were literally the conception of player chores turning players into NPCs.

The pre-wrath event was the final moment when WoW still had any semblance of being an MMO, and guess what? Casuals bitched out it simply because they couldn't handle not being able to bank or AH or mail for awhile. They didn't care about an event where the enemy actually threatened them on their home turf, their base of operations, their safe space.

In fact, it's just a precursor to the current outrage culture of over sensitive pussies.

Why would they squish the levels to 70 instead of 100?

In before 20 replies from mentally unstable FF14 players saying "it's only that server not this one" and then another player saying "no its his server that's like not my server." EVERY FUCKING TIME.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO STOP TALKING ABOUT FINAL FANTASY!!!!!!!!!!!
