Like every game once it's spoiled with too much content, it becomes a burden more than a game. And nothing really feels accomplished, but more so given to me. So there's no satisfaction when achieving anything. And at the same time it feels impossible to consume all the content in a meaningful way. More isn't always better and they really need to stop pushing out all these meaningless expansions. Same goes for Hearthstone, just like Pokémon, ruined by an overabundance of content.
Hey, I recently cancelled my subscription to wow and uninstalled it from my system after playing wow for 17 years......I haven't enjoyed wow for years, the whole battle for Azeroth then shadowlands was just ick.....and then totally changing flying and making us use it or we can't do story quests....that was it for me.... I've only ever played wow as a solo player, and while I've made friends along the way, they're all gone now playing other games or not playing at all and Azeroth just wasn't fun anymore...
Great video...I can see how ramping up apathy would push new players away for sure. They should make the leveling experience fairly consistent, get those people to 60 or 70 faster so then they could be prey for micro transactions...although I think you nailed it, that boost to 70 becomes increasingly attractive.
Just finished leveling an Evoker in mop-remix and holy fucking hell I hate this class so much! If all other classes and specs rank between 5-10 (out of 10) Evoker, at least for me ranks negative 10. Holy fuck squared!
because it`s p2w trash and new player`s see this. instead of leveling, exploring and community, kinda everything is about selling gold designt. its about getting max level in 1-2 Days, and then start buying gold to progress fast. And then at max level you have the option, you want to farm your gear and mats in one week? or just buy everything with 10 dollars. the game is dogshi*** imo, there is even a official chatt channel for boosters xD
They deff did it for the boost,… i started playing wow again after 8 years and went with my demon hunter that was a level 42. , i got it to level 60 and damn it felt sooo weak.. then i bought a level 70 boost
Imo you need quest addons.. you need to lnow how to run the quest line.. in dragonflight you need to start as if you were a level 60, by flying to thT zone and start the campain that way and then work your way up so you get a feel of the game
I just started playing again after a 10 year break. I noticed what you are saying how my character is getting weaker the higher I level. I could go through mobs in just a couple seconds in my level 10sih stages. Now I'm level 35 and it's taking me longer to kill mobs I encounter, and I have more abilities to attack with. I first played WoW when it was first released. I LOVED the game then. Now I started a new account, and it's so confusing with professions. I like the game now, but just not in love with it anymore. I'm sure me changing is a big part of that, but the game makes leveling not as fun as it once was. I love getting a mount at 20 instead of 40, and being able to fly is a great addition. I'm from the walk until level 40 days and those were tough. I'm still playing after a couple weeks, but the higher level I get, the less I play. Thanks for the guide. I wish I had found it before I started playing again.
I honestly prefer to „get weaker“. Although I wouldn‘t even call it that. If you always just twoshot everything, what‘s the point of combat? Why do I have CCs, CDs, a complex rotation, if one button does it equally well? Not trying to be a dick, but I‘m really glad this isn‘t the way you want it lol. If anything the average open world encounter is already braindead easy.
Go do some classic, the real one where the cap is 60 and old school wow...thats rewarding and hardcore, a time where you had to think about agro and could die easily, retail today is just so boring and easy mode compared IMO :)
I'm kinda iffy on Battle For Azeroth. I've only played part of the Horde's side, so forgive me for missing all of the Alliance stuff. I absolutely adored the Zandalari questline, it kept me playing for a really long time. Every day I'd log on and keep playing. ...Sadly the Vulpera part isn't as interesting. For some reason I lost interest once I stopped doing quests in Zuldazar (I apologize if I'm spelling that wrong) which really sucks imo because I no longer have the motivation to finish Battle For Azeroth and unlock the rest of the races. I'm hoping that I'm nearly done with the Vulpera and that the... whatever comes after are more enjoyable. Honestly, I think I'd pay extra for the ability to skip quests but still get the rewards- I'm sorry but some of them are just exhausting. Also I really miss Princess Talanji and Bwonsamdi :( They're my favorite characters in the entire game- Maybe that's why I don't play wow too often- cause the characters just aren't interesting enough to keep me engaged unless I'm committing to one of the big campaigns. One thing I really like about WoW though, is that I don't have to be good at combat to play :) I'm terrible at things like aim and strategizing, I like that you can get through most of WoW by just pressing the number keys in combat.
I love the roleplaying game that will start you out as a ragtag hobo and not even 2 minutes after completing the quest you are now champion of the galaxy and annihilator of worlds when not even 2 minutes ago you were collecting 10 boar asses for the local butcher and all these powerful people from over 10 real life years ago talk to you like you’re best buds
Being someone who also quit some time ago (though a lot less than 8 years), I have also taken up Dragonflight, at least for a few months when it was fresh. Got bored after a while, but I can't speak ill of the expansion, it felt kind of nice, I liked it. Difference from you is I always find it more fun leveling in Warlords of Draenor. While that expansion always felt somewhat off, I really loved the questing in it as well as those little secret items you'd get on the map that give you XP, plus I feel it's the fastest of the expansions for some reason... or perhaps I know exactly where everything is and what to do since I've done it so many times. And I also enjoy the world being completely deserted when I level. :)
I think on the tutorial the game should Automatically Open the menu and drag the spells into the Hotbar or automatically make them appear in the hotbar until it's full like would moves in pokemon. 7:05 Honestly, If the game starts to drag, I would Either create a new character and see what's the 'meta' or just Stop playing. 8:05 In my understanding, Difficulty should mean that the game gets more complex instead of more harder. Since there are more options and relatively fewer answers, It makes it harder. But seems like WOW decides to throw everything on the first hour of the game. 8:32 You have to track Item levels!?.... does the game remark this on the tutorial at any point? (though I think its too much stuff to keep track off) (From the 10 minutes of gameplay I had, some other videos and this) I think this game is only for people who have no life. (not even masochism) OR Is a game to play while you do other stuff, having macros and some bots to grind the game supervised on a second monitor while you are doing something else.... but if that's the appeal, with the story the game has... why to have that content at all? Is it because it's been dragging mechanics since it's conception? I think I would search a way to have a custom server with my rules (though after all I enjoy modding games, I enjoy games to have fun... you know... what they are supposed to do.)
Dude just a info. Whether or not regardless you got new pc or not for wow. Its on Geforce now cloud game streaming 2 days ago. If you are like us others who play wow casual rather than competitive play
I started few days ago and gone BFA road and really enjoyed it so far, im 43lvl now and all I see is people complaining how bad is it, was it really so good on other expansions? I guess I will try and make a different class your way and see for myself
I tried it and it honestly felt utterly horrible. I do think they have finally done some thing better, but overall it still mechanically feels off. I am a firm believer that flying mounts have done more damage to the game than any other addition, and yet they seem to have doubled down on that. Also, being able to fight 10x mobs with no real danger, as per you video, feels really bad to me. In contrast I went and tried Classic Era was was absolutely hooked.
I subbed for the video idea, but yeah I think after cataclysm the leveling got too easy. You either boost a character to 60 and get overwhelmed by all the abilities and talents, or you level a character which is too easy and doesn't feel rewarding because of the level scaling, lack of exploring the world, and getting new better gear with every quest. There is no challenge until end game. Pvp is currently ruined and pve is all about min maxing rather than clearing content your own unique and fun way. Classic plus is the only fix and making excuses for retail is what is stopping the game from being any good anymore
Legitimately don't think Blizzard will touch levelling until after The Last Titan, but this is a very good and well put together guide for new players in the meantime.
the only way i can see anyone getting into wow is through classic. retail is wholly inaccessible to a new player. the pace at which youre thrown into the endgame in retail is tailored to the veteran player whos played every class before, and punishes the beginner who is overwhelmed with a full toolbar at level 10
Bro you have you your tutorials turned off, ofc you would miss a tone of information that the game is giving you but instead you opted to turn that off so you can bitch about it. The Chinese gold seller on the other hand, yea not much you can do about it, or whatever he sells. Game has been in decline since the WoW token and personally, I don't see why I should play on blizz servers when private servers are offering me a way better experience and more feelings of an actual community than blizz servers.
NOTE: because they gimped the artifact weapons at the end of legion, it isnt pleasant to level in unless you have heirloom weapons because they dont scale well enough, and none of the content drops weapons because why would they when you have the epic magical mcguffin of awesomeness.
As of 05/2024 I have returned to after a 14 year break, and I was so confused, I wasn't sure what WOW to DL, Classic, Discovery, 3 day early pass into war within like WTH is that!!?? No explanation real, not one I liked , not enough to help direct me. So then I recover my 7 95ers, who are al 30, or 35....I forget, then the guild I ran I trusted to another, he returned the crown back 5 years ago and demoted his toon not sure why, log says he just did it 1 hour ago, but the guild members lost shows he hasn't been on in 5 years so I don't know, maybe because the game was still loaded, if I still can't get in to my own Guild vault I'll open a ticket but I've heard that's bad now, used to be able to open a ticket and say exactly what the issue was and you'd get a response in a few to an or maybe a day, but it was simple, like the time I was stuck on a gryphon I flew back and forth between IF and SW, lol yeah was on that bird for about a day I'd log out and in and same thing. Finally a GM (Game Master) helped me out of it. But I am back and I know my way around, but it's really is like coming out of a coma I forget how to do anything or what my pally spell do .. Thinking like here too, be great to practice by making a new toon. I'm originally from vanilla days, I strongly believe, they should have Stopped at WotLK and then add the other stories through instances, say magic rocks land and bleed out an instance into a multiverse. I really enjoyed questing, and Dgns until they got so stupid hard we had to watch RU-vid videos to study them like do ya know the mechanics of this Dgn bra? Na...na....no...GET OUT! LOL I was so glad when they came up with my wish which was one button Dgn group finder I was so happy no more sitting around the outside waiting for folks to walk up, Anyway, Cheers all!❤ And thanks for the video.
