wildstar was an amazing mmo thread to see play out because it billed itself as 'classic WoW' style for real capital G gamers and the turned out to be run by people who had no loving clue how to manage an mmo and just kept loving things up harder and harder until it went f2p in slightly over a year.

Which is extremely funny because classic WoW was not in any way super hardcore in the way those dweebs pretended it was anyways. Wildstar was just an endless cascade of meaningless buzzwords with a neat playable weird gremlin race and extremely good player housing for some reason

Dunno whether it's me paying more attention to the LC now or if it's just SA cracking down/catching up on psycho posters now but it's been good to see so many truly lovely posters getting banned these past couple of weeks. Keep up the good work y'all keeping the heinous poo poo out.

I really wanted to like Wildstar, but when I got into the first dungeon and couldn't get past the first trash pack with rando people because you had to coordinate 3 interrupt moves perfectly or you died, I knew that this game would never survive lol.

Fajita Queen posted:Which is extremely funny because classic WoW was not in any way super hardcore in the way those dweebs pretended it was anyways. though, I will admit, I did have one of my favorite WoW moments when I, as a rogue, managed to salvage a failed twin prince raid boss fight in ahn'qiraj. I dodgetanked one of them and kited him back to the corner when everyone was ready to just wipe and start over, and we managed to finish the fight for our first prince kill. that felt pretty good. exploring ahn'qiraj was pretty cool as a gigantic egyptian bug fortress but everything had a million health and it was surprisingly easy to aggro stuff through walls so you'd sometimes suddenly have a swarm of bullshit appear out of nowhere and slaughter everyone

Captain Invictus posted:classic wow raiding was pretty hardcore. ahn'qiraj and naxxramas were insane bullshit raids where one wrong move by any of the 40 people there wiped the whole raid and resulted in a like 30 minute runback and setup again. I feel like there was a brief point where C'thun was literally unbeatable until they patched him to be easier because people could not damage him enough before the enrage timer hit? or something like that? it wasn't until someone in elitist jerks (i think?) mathematically proved c'thun was impossible to kill as-is that blizzard nerfed it

NoiseAnnoys posted:was that a bad thing or a good thing? what would sometimes happen is someone would, say, aggro a mob at the very entrance of the instance right as they accepted a teleport to where everyone else was, and that mob would then follow a path through the entire rest of the instance to get to them, bringing every single other group of mobs they encountered along the way in a giant train of death that would arrive about 10 minutes later. the drama was incredible, just the angriest nerds screaming in fury because they usually couldn't tell who was the culprit, because SOMEONE has to take the blame UHD posted:it wasn't until someone in elitist jerks (i think?) mathematically proved c'thun was impossible to kill as-is that blizzard nerfed it hilarious, though, blizzard minmaxing it so hard that it became actually impossible to beat because they didn't want to build up this huge event only for the hardcore raid grinders to finish it 24 hours into the patch Captain Invictus fucked around with this message at 22:29 on May 20, 2023 |

It's a lesson that took me years to learn. I always thought, "pah, they are being dramatic, can't be as bad as all that!" Unfortunately it can be, often sometimes worse.
