WoW wouldn't have bled so much if content was delivered in a timely manner. People got burnt out even faster than back during Cataclysm because Blizzard has no concept of keeping deadlines.

Can't really tell buy that chart because they don't show increments of time, but they were hemorrhaging subs early and quickly within the first few months. Everybody knows that the orc storyline dragged back a bunch of old farts that are even older now and were never going to stick around.

They are actually speeding up the rate of content tho, by making wow expansions a yearly release :v:

So either that's a pricing error or the new world of warcraft super deluxe expansion edition is over 100 bucks.


As a collector of fine ultra huge game boxes this outrages and angers me.

Also it's literally just TBC again! They even have illidan on the box, they also stated that everything in TBC was just stdh.txt. You see you didn't kill any of those guys all those years ago they all came back to life in some form, yes lets call everything setbacks! Also they seem to be proudly announcing that you will have to grind for everything interesting mentioned in this game, it's a feature!


Blizzard just release Warcraft 4 already, stop killing the franchise with poo poo like this. Give me my orcs without all thise Vanilla Diablo 3 bullshit and fire that guy who made diablo 3 out of a cannon.

The franchise is turning into a yearly Activision cashgrab and its extremely obvious with Legion. WoD sold like gangbusters to old farts that are nostalgic for orcs, and Legion will probably sell just as well to people who have a hard on for the old elf storylines. They don't even have to worry about people actually playing the game and paying subs if they can sell enough expansions.

Next year I'm sure they'll be rehashing a new Lich King expansion.

Most of it is focused on dragging the Illidan fangirls back to the game by making him the major figure in the expansion and introducing his class as playable complete with doing a elf flippy jump on command.

The Taint Reaper posted:

they're appealing to the same people. I just hope it blows up in their face like vanilla diablo or Starcraft HOTS because only then do they make good games.

Despite the fact that they bitch and moan about everything, wowplayers are the easiest fans to appease on a basic level. It's like crack but with the added sunk cost fallacy.

And yet Dalaran and Vurkill are in Legion too, so they are trying to grab LK stuff as well.

It's probably just for the setup to the next LK themed expansion, they did the same thing in WoD setting up Legion.

Thomas in DP isn't that sympathetic of a character. He's a scheming nefarious gay, which is a thing in Japan. Kaine isn't trans or intersex, she's a girl who just so happens to have a penis due to a glitch.

I personally just see it as lighthearted comic relief, none of the characters are particularly centered around their inability to cook.

Its strange because I've only found it funny in Gintama because it was part of a gag with the other characters, in everything else its just "them wacky broads sure can't cook lol"

Ok, saying KR2 was better was a stretch, but HW is more disappointing than KR2 because it had much more potential.

Best is still Warriors Orochi 2, followed by 3

Have you tried SW4 yet? It isn't as super stuffed with content like WO, but the new hypercombo system owns and the gimmick in it is great.

Escape From New York had a wireframe sequence but it wasn't CGI, to save money they built a model of the city and painted it black and made the wireframe out of glowing tape.

A decade later, they did the same sequence in Escape From LA but with CGI and it looks worse.

I think the whole of the kind of people that spend time posting on the Internet is an echo chamber. I find it better if I want to get out of 'an echo chamber' is to go talk to some gamers in real life and get away from Reddit and Twitter. My peers around my age with families, jobs, etc. A lot of SJW types seem to be scary derelicts, addicts and failures judging by history I've seen on some of them.

Since I just spent some time equating peers and echo chambers and cults it occurs to me that I could find a homeless person on the street (as opposed to taking a trip to Africa or finding some bush tribesman in Australia or something) and really get out of my echo chamber that way by telling them about GG too, but they have other priorities so I usually just talk to them about their life and give them money.

In the end, I am reasonably certain of my own ability to assess facts and don't desire that much validation from other people.
