I watched the announcement expecting something to make up for BFA and SL and it's somehow fucking worse
>only 4 mythic+ ready dungeons at launch, despite mythic+ still being the center of the game >blizzard admits LFG ruined the community during their WotLK classic announcement, still keep all antisocial faggotry in retail >5 zones at launch, one of those being a leveling zone -- least amount of zones ever >they didnt even have a map of the dragon isles, they always have a continent map at the reveal >they didnt show off a single instance as far as I could tell >the new race -- just 3 reskins (remember how much effort they put in TBC?) >red dragons are dps now??? what? >race made by deathwing; dont even use any black dragonflight powers >profession revamp is just work orders, which every other MMO on the market has >main new feature is just GW2 flying mountains -- nothing interesting or experimental to make up for the lack of normal content >no new races on the dragon isles, just trash mobs from classic >dracthyr have only one gender (lmfao imagine the voice lines they'll have) >fags on reddit say it's good Dragonflight has no content since 'quality over quantity' - they think having less content each expansion since Legion has led to higher quality
Imagine being this obsessed with how someone you will never meet lives their life I bet you get lots of sex

Ever since MoP WoW has transitioned (heh) more and more into generic MMO mash, this shit doesn't even look like the same setting I feel like I'm looking at a screenshot for Guild Wars 2 or TERA
Carson Sanchez
I said on reddit WoW's art style changed with MoP and I got more downdoots than ever before
Luke Stewart
They really wanted the final fantasy audience with those human form models
Ethan Sanchez
Ah yes "WoW has always had a cartoonish artstyle just look at warcraft 3!" Yeah but its not gritty at all, now, everything's overpolished and orcs look way too fucking civilized, even the trolls look like they wash themselves more often than the addicts behind the screens
Brandon Ortiz
WoW has been shit since Wrath.
Evan Perez
This is correct, it started in MOP and went furter in WoD. Legion however was a complete redesign, so it was one level above WoD. In WoD they at least attempted to modernize the looks, but since legion they went into full troon mode
Asher Johnson
WotLK was the beginning of the end
Parker Ward
The reason I said it is because people said the leaked dracthyr didn't look like it was from WoW (and ergo fake), and I said MoP shit would have looked faked if leaked during even Cata.
Kayden Rodriguez
Shadowlands was the last expansion I have bought after I have watched the announcement. There is nothing that would bring me back except they would bring back MoP class design.
Levi Hall
Tranny hands typed this.
Jacob King
I quit after 8.3 dropped A friend convinced me to try Shadowlands just before 9.1 and I stuck around for like a month or two I'd only play Dragonflight if they halved the price (since it's half a REAL expansion) or if it went F2P.
Wyatt Kelly
NGL back then I was looking at the models later used in the trailer and was hoping these were real. Man, I had some high hopes...
TBC >2 new races with unique models (2 genders each) >new profession >4 new starter zones >3 new cities >new continent (7 zones) >flying >arenas >heroic dungeons
WotLK >new hero class (3 specs) >new profession >new city >new continent (10 zones) >glyphs >inscription
Cataclysm >2 new races with unique models (2 genders each) >2 new starter zones >6 new zones across the world >TOTAL world revamp of Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms with flying in the old world >new race/class combos >archeology
MoP >1 new race with a unique model and 2 genders, 1 new class with 3 specs >new continent (7 zones) >scenarios >challenge mode dungeons
WoD >6 new zones >character model “update” to all classic races + draenei >Garrisons >Mythic dungeons
Legion >new hero class (2 specs) >new continent (6 zones) >Mythic+ >Class Order Hall storylines >Artifact Weapons
BFA >2 new continents (6 zones) >2 new cities >10 new races; 9 reskins/remodels, 1 new model >Warfronts (with revamp to 2 old zones) >Island Expeditions
Shadowlands >new customization options (you can now be nigger :DDDD) >new continent (5 zones) >Choreghast >Covenants
Dragonflight >new hero class (2 specs) >new monster reskin race (1 gender) with human females and blood elf males with scales >new continent (4 zones) >GW2 style flying
What happened??
Lincoln Brooks
Announcement cinematics
TBC - Kino WotLK - Good Cata - Eh MoP - Kino WoD - Kino Legion - Eh BFA - Okay SL - Eh I didn't even watch the Dragonflight cinematic this time.
Lincoln Cox
Can't wait to see other western studios like Rockstar and Bethesda embarrass themselves after their transition to modern values.
Evan Ramirez
>3 years in development >Allow the furry artist to do nothing but make a Second Life fursona >Ignore the established drakonids and art style of your game >male human forms unironically have transexual contour make up to feminize them When even r*ddit, the forums, every other WoW addict and even mmo champion is disgusted you know there's a point to be made.
I think the only people left who are playing WoW are those in guilds like Echo because they make money of it and some super addicted, why would you play this game nowadays?
Isaac Moore
Furshit from a woke trash company
Elijah Peterson
Unironically they must have a terrible work ethic, how can you produce so little content with so much time to work on it?
Well, not EVERY WoW addict, then again, streamers are probably paid by blizzard to act hyped even when they hate it.
Grayson White
>with so much time to work on it? and so much money too. this makes you think
Adam Jenkins
I'm not obsessed, just disgusted
Leo Myers
back in the day your job was to make a game. now you have to attend mandatory diversity training, sexual harassment seminares, BLM protests etc. so it's a miracle that they get anything done at all
Blake Johnson
>I didn't even watch the Dragonflight cinematic this time.
It was okay but there were 0 Blizzard vibes. Honestly I wonder if there was any truth to those rumors of Blizzard changing their name. Is any of their originals left or is their current staff all new hires?
Joshua Lopez
>WoD Dont forget that xpac basically removed more than it added, it should be in negatives
Jacob Campbell
>I didn't even watch the Dragonflight cinematic this time. Pic related is all you need to know about the cinematic
>>blizzard admits LFG ruined the community during their WotLK classic announcement, still keep all antisocial faggotry in retail To be fair, there's no fixing that now. The pandora's box has been opened, there's no going back for WoW. Even classic never had a chance, because people are different nowadays.
That's just what happens when you hire to check diversity quotas.
Chase Jenkins
Shocked they didn't retcon the titan watchers in to africans or something retarded.
Sebastian Howard
They are trying to see what the perfect balance of no effort and money is.
They provide a little less each time and see people still play. They don't care about the monthly subs like they have always made it seem, that was just a marketing thing. There is no way you can convince anyone that Shadowlands provided almost $400 worth of content over two years (360 monthly + 40 initial).
They care about the whales purchasing mounts and tokens and the initial buys of the expansion. The monthly subs are just icing.
Nicholas Taylor
Its also furry trash and somehow even more offensive than Pandaria
Caleb Williams
I mean, we saw the watcher climb a tower like king kong, so they did kind of an ape reference already, they're getting there
Aiden Gutierrez
It's so bad not even the furries like it.
Daniel Bennett
They retconned them already in legion completely. The lore of Ulduar and Pandaria was all about "The titans are dead, we are abandoned and all alone against outer gods" which would have been a perfect setting. That there are some forces beyond our understanding that will doom us all and our life is a struggle against the impossible. Not the magical beam of happiness
Angel Nelson
If they removed the monthly sub (which they would NEVER do) and just made you buy the expansions, would WoW be king again even where it is now?
Hunter Harris
Honestly, not sure what to think of the titans, should we even know that they're dead?
Carson Parker
Bethesda is already adding trannies to Starfield
Hudson Wilson
No mr.blizzard marketer
Samuel Moore
It's a new class, but it's not even a fully fledged new race. It's not like worgen where the shifted form is equally functional to your regular one. It's basically just demon hunters again, except you transform into a dragon instead of the a demon, only this time with more customization and slightly fewer restrictions.
You can play a worgen without ever using the human form, but you can't do the same with dracthyr.
Dylan Thomas
I unironically came up with the Activision Insight meme. Same with the 'microclass' Dragonflight leak and the 'Blizz dev here' 2019 leak someone recently sent me since they thought it was real still.
Angel Brooks
>should we even know that they're dead? That was the entire point of Raden and Lei Shen. Also to some extent with Algalon. Basically some sort of "secret" lore that noone outside of lorefags and top raiders will be aware of.
Benjamin Morales
No I think you're just stuck in your "draconic" form for combat, with like, 3 pieces of gear you can wear (shoulders, belt, tabard) and the "human" form is just there to get people to dress like drag queens at whenever they might restart their blizzcons
Monthly Sub is almost a none issue in the game with so many gold and tokens being thrown around. But the state of the game is so terrible that it's still not worth it.
Angel Lopez
I was super disappointed not to see any snowy area in Zandalar like there should've been.
Dominic Parker
Wotlk in pure tone was the best for me. Music, narrative tone, first flex of LK power. So good.
Lucas Myers
I'd buy it if Dragonflight was $20 and the sub was $5 or less. The little content they're offering is disgusting compared to what they used to do.
Noah Bell
You know they gonna make it 60 bucks pretending it to be a fullfledged game
Jacob Wright
Team 1 left WOW to make Titan (overwatch) and team 2 was only there to keep the game on autopilot.
The problem is they put Ion Hozzikotas in charge of PVE and he turned the game into a speedrunning/world first esport and he's been using his background as a fucking business lawyer to keep from getting fired.
Asher Moore
By the way
If you hadn't noticed, the dragon form doesn't get to wear armour. They're restricted to barbershop "torso plates".
They already said you can't go in combat with the humanoid form, it's literally there to make people cosplay as their characters and have them dress in drag
Ayden Rogers
The draconic form can't ride mounts, which is going to be the real limiting factor.
Hudson Miller
Footfag spotted

>Imagine being this obsessed with how someone you will never meet lives their life This is literally the logic leftoids use when anyone and everyone, especially strangers don't "validate their existence".
