"We're in the no child left behind" era? You just know a guy who uses that line to complain about casuals ruining games has a whole lot more opinions they could use a punch in the mouth for. loving casual children just expecting to be given an education. Go grind in the library??

The end of last year WoW even updated one of their first raid dungeons so people could see how terrible it was and apparently some people still pine for that poo poo

Mormon Star Wars posted:I want Wildstar to succeed because I like "sci-fi wow" and the cartoony aesthetic and would waste time on this game if they ever fix the developers attitudes. If you want sci-fi wow, why not SWTOR? at least you go to more then one planet. but yes I agree wildstar had a lot going for it and it sad it's run by a team who are to full of the "HARDCORE" bullshit.

Mizuti posted:People have been demanding classic World of Warcraft servers since the game moved on from classic to Burning Crusade. I wonder how many people would actually play officially sanctioned classic servers all the way through to the hard and grindy content. At the very least it would show off if people only play private vanilla/TBC/wotlk servers because they're free or what. I have to imagine it would be more popular than as just a niche product, but Blizzard has been saying no for ten years now.

At least I still get a little bit of fun every new season in diablo 3. Hopefully overwatch will be fun too. Blizzard still make fun games, its just that wow isn't one of them anymore. The most hilarious thing is that Ghostcrawler went to work on LoL and immediately began raging about casuals ruining his games.

This was pretty funny when I found out about it a few months back.

as someone who likes SWTOR let me tell you SWTOR is only really enjoyable when they have a 12x exp event running and you can just enjoy the story. the sidequests are explictly not fun and six thousand dollars worth of VA work to justify you collecting 6 droid hearts or w/e it's a fun game to play through a few times though, and makes me pine for an original sci-fi mmo that is good.

Compromising game design I love how much beating around the bush he's doing there, like he can't bring himself to actually tell players they should just gently caress off. He's basically saying that the things that made vanilla wow difficult (resist grinding, hours upon hours of trash mobs and tedium, etc) are what devs should still be designing because just making fights hard isn't actually hardcore.

I hate when I go to MMO Champion and there is a pretty beefy update and 2/3rds of it is nothing but a Ghostcrawler circlejerk. I just don't see why people would even be interested in reading what he thinks about WoW anymore. EDIT: Those new demon models look cool, oh looks like warlocks will get them after all.

It seems to me more like he's just happy for a change of pace in his design constraints, because he no longer has to worry about whether or not something is too complex for people who are bad at vidjama games. The rest is just him going, "No seriously, stop trying to reinterpret everything I say you sperglords."

"During 12x xp weekends you can ignore all the grinding and MMO missions and play a fairly reasonable KOTOR-type storyline even as a Free player!" I guess I was moderately tempted to give it a whirl just to see if Jennifer Hale voicing the female republic trooper is as good as her Commander Shepard But ultimately I just couldn't be arsed. My brother is the bigger Star Wars fan anyway. Although I guess as the jackass who interrupted honorable lightsaber duels In Jedi Knight/Jedi Outcast MP with the flak cannon, I do appreciate that you can play non-jedi classes.

trooper story is bad and dumb anyway also male voicework in swtor is way better than w/e female voices i've heard, ~femshep~ or not also your friend is retarded, 12x thing is for subscribers only + there is no such thing as "12x weekends"

Mizuti posted:WoW's coding is a mess; the game is partially controlled by killing invisible bunnies. No joke. But it has the excuse of being built on a very dated engine as well as being a decade old. Wildstar, being a 2014 release, has no such excuses. To be fair, any database over fuve years old is going to be the same. Each programmer has their own way if doing things and they are the worst at the making process documents so their replacement just starts hanging what they do on the old stuff.
