Blizzard's President Calls Out Asmongold - Scripe Reacts 

Scripe is the most normal hardcore MMO player, much love and keep wining champ

There is nothing worse than the head of the company saying "shut up my product is perfect" while the company keeps losing customers.

The hardest part of doing the hardest group content is definitely the logistics. My group got AotC every tier we played the game, but we never got CE because our group was only 12 people that have been playing for years. And it feels like every time a new person came along, someone else had a kid or got a promotion, or something else took them out of the game. Finding people you both enjoy spending tine with who are ALSO good enough to do the content, while ALSO finding multiple times a week when everyone can play is tougher than the bosses in any MMO.

The reason why wipe punishment is tolerable in Classic is because the raids are braindead easy. Wiping is a rare occurrence in Classic and more like a catastrophe. In retail Mythic progress you wipe 100+ times on some bosses so reviving, rebuffing feels like a massive waste of time. Every other wipe someone releases their spirit, healer fucks up soulstone revive, someone goes afk and we have to wait for him to revive, eat food, get buffs.

theres a difference between lacking the skill and ability to do an activity and simply choosing not to engage in it. people like to assume if you are not doing A, its because you dont possess the ability to A. Ive cleared mythic raids before, I just choose not to because I dont find the stress fun, so I simply get ahead of the curve and call it a day.

Also, as someone who went from Clicker to Cutting Edge in WoD, yeah the raw skill cieling for Mythic (outside of outlier like ToS or Mythic Azshara/Jailer) is lower than most people think, however the time committement is obsurd compared to anything else in the game. When I did that journey I was in school, so I raided Mythic 3 days a week, raided chill with my social sideguild 3 days a week, and pugged on alts the 7'th. Legion and BfA with all the Artifact Power grinding made it pretty much unfeasible for me to bother, and after chill-raiding Mythic in Shadowlands (guild got stuck on Blood Council), I quit after Nathria out of boredom. Dragonflight I just heroic raid, and this current season I've actually had fun in M+ for first time since Legion and I've gigageared 2 chars and now guild is on break until 10.2. If I wanted to put in the time and effort to clear Mythic I could, but with those hours put in and the hard-commited time, I can instead relax and play other games or level and gear alts for some refreshment in gameplay feel, or go and derp around on Classic for a different gaming experience. The gear, and espescially visualls, of Mythic gear compared to normal raid gear since WoD is simply not worth putting in 5x the time and effort for.

I think they should be a button to - 'Turn off immersion color for boss spells'. For example, like you said frost theme boss and room, but if you turn off the button from settings. Now frost spells will display in a purple color. or say fire theme boss, and if you turn off button you(only) will see fire spells in a blue color. That way immersion players can keep their immersion, but for people like me, I can turn the button off and focus on the raid.

I wonder if maybe they can just upgrade different slots each raid. Say the first raid is chest, gloves, and earrings; second is pants, shoes, and bracelets; third is weapon, hat, and rings. Makes the previous tier's gear worthwhile while still giving you reason do the next tier. Might need some transmogs for the slots so it doesn't look weird until you do all three tiers but seems like an option.

Ulduar is not hard at all by modern standards, however when you compare it to any boss from Vanilla or TBC and even revamped (absolutely laughably autowin) WotLK Naxxramas rework, the mechanical difficulty difference in staggering. I can think of only 2 bosses in there with less than 6 important mechanics that if you mess them up, will wipe you. Add ontop of Wrath having objectively worse readability for a ton of effects and attacks, and a ton of people quit.

he aint wrong , the dude was carrying to get a long boy

I'd like not easy but simple, a more streamlined wow experience I guess. Love mythic raiding and I wish I felt more enticed and encouraged to explore other aspects of the game.

I'm not sure Scripe was being sarcastic, but I honestly think, that Asmon, in principle could do it, but he chooses not to. He would have to put some effort in, regardless. But then again, this might hurt his viewership, because ppl don't watch him for the high-end content he gives, but for the entertainment, and this one will suffer if he switches his focus on being a pro gamer.

Both Asmon and you are correct, Blizzards PR-Dpt. on the other hand seems to have been kicked out 5 yrs ago looking at all the PR/Marketing-apocalypses (and the hilarious or non-existing actions). The silly statement regarding Asmon - while no biggie - should simply NOT happen if you’re an exec/professional of any kind. Not to mention how the company as a whole (including the notorious CEO….) handled the sexual harassment-scandal - that was more than a “biggie” and was coped with in an unbelievably bad fashion.

tbh when you spend the night wiping on the same boss, run backs and rebuffs takes way to much time when you know something more efficient like ff14

One way to keep gear from earlier tiers relevant would be to borrow the heroic+ approach taken in classic wotlk - so you can still get items from the previous raid tiers from current content (e.g. from current season m+/raid) but still provides a benefit if you carry them on from earlier tiers.

One interesting idea that I heard - Make M++ (10 men mythic raid of the m+ dungeons). That way you have like 8 more raids for small guilds/groups.

I think this video is the most 'middle ground' reaction from a top 0.1% players on this issue. Scripe doesn't have to wiggle around to form a counter arguement on certain issues (like devs fumbling with the design of the game) that majority of the players face. In Max's case, IMO he can't call out most devs for doing an awful job and always trying to be the devil's advocate is because he personally knew some of them, he even went on and said Mike Ybarra occasionally stop by his stream to meme around, so that again IMO, stops him from calling out the devs. Sure, I've seen a couple of times where he disagreed with the devs but saying 'this is bad' in joking manner is not really a criticism.

Hear me out. Mythic is a cosmetic only difficulty. It is just for prestige and unique sets. Heroic becomes the defacto cap for ilvl and this would help with ilvl bloat and would also remove the drive for mythic gear that some have.

maybe an item merging system could fix the problem with gear becoming obsolete, for example you have the beacon from sarkareth, and by combining it with a trinket from the next raid you can turn the beacon into a higher ilvl version equivalant to the sacrificed item? maybe this will become convoluted tho, but at least it would keep the old raids relevant in some way. imagine getting a 447 storm eaters boon tho POG

Mythic+ gives heroic gear, and has some of everyone's BIS in it. The catalyst exist, allowing you to get your full 4-piece without ever setting foot in a raid by converting dungeon gear. And if you do at least up to +18s, your vault drops mythic gear. You can be decked out in Mythic raid gear, tierset, and damn near full-BIS without ever having to see a single raid boss. M+ is great, it's my favorite part of the game, but the loot being so good and so easy to get makes raiding far less incentivized now. Current BIS is 489, and one could easily hit 486-487 only doing M+ and filling vault every week for a couple months.

20:51 so true, I'd probably do some PVP if my character had the same abilities as in PVE, but have to think about new keybinds for pvp talents etc.

Gear resetting is why i havent played in months. I joined in SL took a break and came back for DF so I'm pretty new all things considered. I did my first raid in DF, M+ and everything was going fine. And then I remembered that in SL the reason i took a break was because the gear that I'd started farming to prep for lfr was instantly invalidated by the 226 in zerith mortis. I paused playing DF to think about whether it'd be worth my time; I realized it'd take 4 ish months from vault drops to get my gear [since i cant rely on drops in raids], seasons last on average 6 months so I'd only have the gear i want for 2 months or so before i need to restart the grind just to keep current. I havent been back since. I dont think that gear should be evergreen like it is in GW2 because the vertical progression is what's fun. But i also dont think it should be invalidated patch to patch, makes it feel like a treadmill. I think that a decent compromise could be that the highest raid gear of that patch overlaps to some extent in the next patch and overlaps into the next expansion. So let's say you have gear that starts at 100 and increases by 20 per difficulty; Normal raids give 100, heroic 120, mythic 140. The next patch gear starts at the 2nd tier, so normal 120, heroic 140, mythic 160. Last patch following the same pattern, 140, heroic 160, mythic 180 leading into the next expansion where it starts at the mid end of the last patch [160]. This still means you have to do the content, but in theory a raider who does mythic raids in the first patch is able to start mythics in patch 2 and heroics in patch 3.

A great example of having gear be relevant the whole expansion is in TBC. Spellstrike Hood and Legs, and Belt of Blasting were crafted epic gear that you could obtain outside of raid. Spellstrike come 100% from outside of raid, and Belt of Blasting came from T5 raiders who had extra materials, but all were BoE. The reason I bring these up specifically is they are NOT the best piece of gear at the end of the expansion, no where near in fact, BUT, they were something you could work towards without raiding and would remain GOOD the entire time. It does not need to be every single gear slot, but even if it is only a few, that helps onboard more players into raiding. You can replace these earlier with some Tier pieces or a drop, but having those means you KNOW that you can bring some level of power and be confident in that the whole time.

Our current mythic gear is on par with LFR level of gear of the new raid on PTR. What do you think this entails? I heard them say it's cool to maybe have some longlasting items but right now this becomes even less so with the fast gear progression problem they're trying to solve.

in regards to the gearing system, i can see both your perspective and asmons. Gearing every 4 months is annoying but obvious it has to exist to an extent so i think what blizzard need to do is think of the long game and make gear from for example the next expansion 11.0 continue to build power up to 11.3 instead of replacing the same item with higher ilvl just make that gear gain power over time. Still add in new trinkets or weapons etc. But if someone wants to use a build from the beginning of the patch relevant at the end of a patch the game would feel less like having to start over and more exciting to try new builds and if it doesn't suit you, play your current set up. Same goes for tier sets, some of them force a playstyle (like buffing unused talents) that people have to reroll a new class/spec or just quit the game.

First of all, your RWF was insane. I have never watched one of those, and never thought for one second that something like that would be compelling. But that was a great tussle between you all and Liquid. OK, to a question which hits a bit on what Asmon was talking about. Since you have done the raids in both WoW and FFXIV, if you could mix and match what you loved about either, how would it look? what would you keep from which one and what would you ditch? Sorry if you have already talked about this and I'm just late to the party.

Definitely agree with the pvp comments from Scripe. It's also the main thing that stalls me when trying out new specs. I don't like blizzard UI, so I made my own. But it takes too long to set up when I don't understand a new class, and I'm not invested enough to start this process.

It went from Asmondgold reacting to a Venruki video about why pvp is dead and why wow is to complicated for new players and why wow struggle to get new players. To be about why Asmondgold quit rading.

I'm an Asmon enjoyer - I do not agree with a lot of what he says about WoW or agree with some caveats - but it's hard to disagree that if all you cared about was making the raid participation go up, you make the game easier and this happens. And because a lot of the games difficulty is artificial this can be done without making it feel bad for HoF raiders and even if did make the game worse for them, at the end of the day, it probably makes the game better or gives more people a reason to raid than the 2000 people who get hall of fame. Classic is so much simpler in every way, and retail is insanely complex to a new player (both real and artificial). There's room between these two extremes and it blows my mind that a company so motivated by profit and player engagement doesn't see that their bias towards their current model doesn't maximise profit or player engagement. WotLK Naxx is a terrible raid but it was a total joke, in a lot of ways, it's probably the easiest raid ever made in WoW history. But it had more logs in those 5 months than Shadowlands got over 2 years in Normal, Heroic, and Mythic and it wasn't close.

I think if the game is too easy it's not fun and when it's too hard it's not fun I always think of fromsoft games. I know they don't produce MMORPG's but their games strike such a good balance in being very rewarding to play(not too easy,not too hard) type of games and it's what always gets me back to play games like Sekiro or Bloodborne. Wow can achieve this balance as well it's just that it's probably not worth the hassle for them, but as you stated 10-25-40 man raids would actually solve this issue and if they do bring back 10 man raids I'm instantly hopping back into wow.

replacing gear is fine. but replacing a 450 ashkandur with the new set feels bad. on the other it is not good to have an item from a boss from a previous raid to be bis. like old warrior soul (but it was an endboss item. so maybe thats a pass)

ff gives achiemvents/titles/cosmetics for harder stuff. why not make 40 player raids give same gear as 10 man, but the 10 man has the achievements. (46:45)

Where are the righthand cam screen gamers?

making mythic 10 man (or flex?!) would 100% make me create my own raidgroups again (and renew my sub). cba anymore to get 20 people together but 10 is manageable.

I honestly think the problem is theres way too many difficulties. i think it should just be normal which is really easy and gives like questing mog just so the majority of the player base can see the story but they dont get any real reward for doing it besides ilvl, then heroic can be a much harder difficulty which gave a nice mog and a mount and maybe some toys and basically just items so the rest of the player base can see these items and aspire to get them rn why would you go into mythic if you can just get all the mog from keys or weekly vault/catalyst. being a young guy and seeing a warrior with the heroic 25 icc mog with shadowmourne motivated me to want to do heroic so i can get the same gear. 2 difficulties would also help ease the sense of replacing gear so quick can have heroic only go up by like 6 ilvls each tier.

Being old enough, I remember Asmongold getting top logs in Legion on raid bosses. I don't know what Mike is talking about.

For the point of Ulduar. Its incredeble raid. But time to complite it for casual raiders is 3x of anyother raid in wotlk.

I kind of liked trash leading up to bosses when I was learning how to play as a kind of newer player. with only 3 years experience, when 1st clearing sanctum and SoD some of the trash gave a little preview of what the bosses were going to do. I got Aotc my 1st season and I didn't have really any addons or weak aura's so having a mini preview to give a basic idea of mechanics helped me personally. But no I didn't need them for repeat play throughs and I think Aberrus trash doesn't really do that, or maybe I just play and played enough now I'm not as concerned with it I know what has to be soaked, ran out dodged now idk. But VoTI did some like before Kurog, they aren't 1 to 1 mechanic explanations but sort of get your eyes ready for certain things like circles that need to be moved out, or frontals etc. maybe I'm wrong but to me it seemed like the trash would get you use to the type of mechanics the bosses would do. I'm talking as more when I was casual/less experienced than now.

They should balance the raid gear so that it takes the place of low end m+/heroics. They’d just need to quit having massive ilvl jumps from tier to tier. So instead of running heroics or farming boring world content people would have the option to do Vault to gear up for Ab and such.

Immersion should not come at the cost of better game play. An example of this was back in Shadowlands in the Necrotic Wake, Nalthor the Rimebinder. As a frost death knight, trying to see the blue swirls on the blue ground while my character is blue from remorseless winter and a frost mage has ice orb out = wtf I'm dead 'cause I can't see the AoEs. Visual clarity on abilities should take precedent at all stages of gameplay, immersion is second after.

Based Scripe take like always.

cata did feel much harder back then, even the dungeons.

I mean of course he can.. if you gave anyone the time they could easily be a mythic raider. Heroic raids are a joke lol. It isn’t like mythic raiding is some prestige reserved for the selected few due to some in game barrier. The thing stopping most from being mythic raiders is free time and commitment to a video game.

Asman has been playing so many different games that he’s picking from each one parts that he likes and he’s basically just making a hamburger helped raid

Cata is my favorite expansion because of the difficulty, the. I stoped playing because they added pandas into the game

Asmongold plays WoW from a casual perspective in a hardcore way and Max plays as a hardcore player on elite high end. The Twitch audience should tell you which content gets more attention. During Mythic races the audience swells for that but afterwards drops off like a rock. Asmongold is by far the freest advertisement for WoW that Blizzard has ever had give the demographic he reaches.

I see randos on the Blizzard forum dismissing player feedback with ad hominem attacks all the time, and I don't think anything of it because they're just a bunch of randos on the internet. When the president of Blizzard does it, though, it's unprofessional and cringey. It's no wonder that the the retail game population continues to decline when the leadership is taking that attitude. What percentage of players even do Heroic and Mythic raiding in WoW? If those are the only players that matter to the leadership, then that's the percentage that will ultimately be left over when all is said and done.

I am now reacting to Scripe reacting to Asmongold reacting to Max reacting to Blizzard President in his chat, reacting to some comment Asmongold made previously 😵‍💫 I'm too old for this

Ybara didn't know who Preach was when he came to do his big interview. And the company has largely despised Asmongold for a while now. So it would make sense if they tried to pivot more towards propping up content creators who enjoy the game for what it is, and try and phase out the problematic elements. This way they don't have to really change the game.

How did u join echo=)?

I played some keys with you on stream. I returned to game back from wod. I didn't play bfa + legion + half shadowlands until end of season 3. I didn't knew shit about m+ and that stuff. After 6,7 years of not playing its like dude i am retarted or something. I always played the game with 2,3 addons nothing more nothinge else, but when i returns boom 30+. There is no possible way to kill echo of neltharion without was if 20 people dont play correctly and know what to do. Asmon is not wow streamer anymore. I am seeing you , gingi , naowh, like 1,5k viewers. Max from liquid 2,5 when something is new in wow even high numbers , but players doesn't give a shit anymore for the game. Yeah rtwf is fun and i helped with splits but still that is like 5,6 days and it's gone until next patch. If you don't have a guild ( good guild ) this game sucks.

Maybe Lizzard should make the M+ content to 10 Man. And Raids to 40 Man.

Checkpoints at bosses, trash should be Mini-bosses instead. That alone would go a long way.

Not a WoW player, but... IMO they should make BIS gear relevant for half the expansion, not the whole expansion. Because if it's for the whole expansion, there would be no reason to farm the next raid. Or current BiS should just equal heroic gear for the next raid tier, not Normal raid gear.

They should have made a brand new game after Burning crusade like wow 2 or world of starcraft or something instead they decided to go with endless expansions for easy money. If you have played both bc and wotlk you are aware they each got smaller and smaller but bc was fine wotlk was this tiny space like 20/1 th of azeroth

Part of issue is there are too many versions of the raid LFR. Normal. Heroic and Mythic, back in vanilla the world was a bigger part of the game raids were like this far off destination, places like Blackrock Mountain BRD. UBERS. LBRS and the raids were the best ever have never ben duplicated

Tbh i quit Raiding this season in WoW.. not because it was to hard, but everything outside the raid was annoying.. we just start finally progressing Elder Rashok on Mythic and i have a blast and was so exciting to see more but nope. "Oh sorry, i have no time anymore." etc.. just some punch of cowards how want to get some mythic clear but when you reach the first boss where you literally have to progress like you should. Some people have "no time anymore" it was never because it was to difficulty.. but at some point it was just straight up annoying when you waste more time for searching a new guild etc then raiding.. because to be honest.. it is really hard to find 20-25 people how are ready to raid Mythic until CE. I literally quit because it was to frustrating i was never a top 1% player but sure i can atleast manage CE after 2-4 Months with nerfs and better gear.. thats the reason why i always say im just a "Casual Mythic Raider". It can be funny when Games are frustrating because the Bosses are rly hard.. i mean.. thats one of the biggest reason why Fromsoftware (Dark Souls etc) exist :D But when most of your frustration comes from stupid things like.. find a new guild.. find new player.. grind boring content you dont enjoy.. then something is wrong, and that was the point where i literally say.. "Nope i take a break.. maybe i come back.. maybe never." Games should make have fun.. and when the negative feelings like frustration or anger way bigger then the good feeling that you get after you finally beat a Boss something is wrong. just my 2 cents To the requirements.. true.. sure for some people it is maybe to hard.. but i think many people just dont want because it is a to big time waste for them

54:30 well, thats called streaming :D

31:00 Thank you for touching on the unprofessionalism/"weirdness". An aspect that the replies, across social media, of Blizzard fans handwave. In any industry if the President-in-title singled out a person it would be seen as out of line, but for some reason Ybarra gets a pass.

Same. I can grind and get best M+ score I want, but is not fun to me. I don't even care. People I know get crazy about being "better", but... for me that's so lame.

WoW hasn’t really gotten harder as much as it’s just gotten faster. You can find it with anyone that comes back from multiple expansion breaks, for most players things just happen too quickly.

They are actual reasobs. By his own admission he’d hate it in Classic if the bosses in Classic weren’t so piss easy you never had to deal with most of the stuff. His entire issue is it takes too long for nothing of value.

theres a reason why wow took out 40 man raids

personaly I dont have hours to raid and wow is played mostly by people with jobs and family life who also dont have time to spend hours in raid. the only people who can spend all that time are those play wow for a job

I watch Asmon cause people may disagree but he is pretty rational and knows basic truths like- nothing is new etc, anyway WoW people cannot see basic concepts and are so tied to their “life” so strange to me how defensive people get about a game! It’s like they forget to play for fun and joy, not a freaking lifestyle- and that mindset just has so much built in bias. The freaking numbers don’t lie, and since blizzard profits up it will stay the same.

@46:10 if raiding is fun enough there is less need for a loot incentive. WoW needs loot incentives because it is not fun playing

Anyone that has followed Asmongold for a while knows he can do Mythic Raids easily.

20:00 u missed the point completely.. firstly, his issue is TOO MUCH DOWNTIME. Those bullets are just examples to show downtimes.. 2ndly, sure those bullets may not be much and u can even say they are nothing.. IF youve been raiding daily for the past year, imagine raiding daily for the past 5yrs and still having to do those bullets every single time.. the frustration will only grow..

We talk about addon be bad for the game but I think one of the reasons wow he still in is because of addon

With every expansion the game just got bigger and lose the initial BIG quality game and hardcore wow is just that good because its the Biggest wow ever and also hardcore thats a plus plus

Why does someone's opinion matter only when they were able to finish the hard content? That's just stupid, especially as the president of that gaming company.

There never was any real lasting progression in wow

Is my 17 years of money and time less valuable because I no longer raid?

Blizzard pays raid guilds and caters towards them to keep the remains alive. No more to say.

Asmon is always changing he's opinions, he is like wow joe rogan. Classic is coming out *OMG I LOVE CLASSIC 🤯🤯🥵🥵📈📈📈😱😱😱, BLIZZARD LET ME INN* New expansion announced: *OMG THEY HEARD US, OMG THIS IS AMAZING, FINALLY DUDE, OMG 😍🥰🥰* 2 months go by and *YEAH WOW SUCKS, BLIZZARD HAS TO FIX THE GAME, THIS IS UNPLAYABLE (NAME A PROBLEM) HAS TO BE CHANGED, IF (NAME A PROBLEM) WAS REMOVED THE GAME WILL BE TOTALLY FINE*

His 4th points are simple. Why should i waste time when someone in my group fuck mechanic of the boss. In vallina bosses were joke and monkey could clear it. Yes 0,1% of players who wasted their time on game can clear it, but what about other players.

Asmon's experience of Cata was completely opposite to mine, raiding felt more accessible than ever. Cata almost made me quit because the rolling nerfs to raids, where every few resets a 5% nerf hit EVERYTHING regardless of if it was justified or not made the raiding incredibly unenjoyable. I don't know how it wasn't accessible though when you had those nerfs killing things for you if you couldn't outrun them and 10man was an option by that point with gear parity. MOP was significantly more challenging and saved the game for me after Cataclysm's raiding was so disappointing it almost cured my addiction. Persistent gear is such a bong take. Imagine starting playing the game, or rerolling in the 2nd / 3rd tier or just getting unlucky and having to try to get your raid team to go back to T1 to get your BIS trinket or some shit. WOTLK was miserable when you were having to go back to Ulduar even after it ended just for legendaries, the last thing we need is that spread over EVERY slot. Normal replacing Mythic is bad, but people asking for their T1 gear to persist in perpetuity is such a fucking dumb take.

Max knows the devs irl, hangs out with some of them and has them in his streams... This is why his opinion on WoW is always positive. His takes are mid because he cant afford to give any real take.

I think FFXIV did it much better. You have tomestones and normal raids for the regular players. It lets you experience the raid and get gear that is within like 2% of BIS (lot of times market bought gear is BiS) with a difficulty that is low enough that people normally just matchmake it with. At the same time there is savage difficulty to challenge those looking for it and give a slightly better reward both in power and in cosmetics(savage gear looks the same but it's dyeable). So you can still feel better than the normies but at the same time the normies don't feel left out or even feel forced to engage with a system that can be very annoying.

i dont play wow anymore.. but why do you need 7 mages if the gear from the previous exp does not get instantly replaced? imagine raiding the new tier with the old gear plus some new items. less grindy for rwf and reward your efforts the previous raids.

Between mike Ybarra downplaying his employees salary/wages and now this? Out of touch or just a troll of a leader/pers.

GDKP what ruins the game. It destroys casual player experience.

Let’s be honest, Asmon has kept WoW relevant for thousands of people over the years whenever Blizzard couldn’t keep people interested. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve quit this god forsaken game only to get drug back because of an Asmon video. Asmon has spent the better part of a decade making his own content via community events because the content Blizzard puts out feels more like work than fun. Nobody wants to watch a guild clear high keys or mythic raid. But they’ll watch a mount-off or transmog competition. They’ll watch a streamer kite a dragon into Stormwind and wreck the server. These are the people Blizzard should actually be listening to. The ones that want the game to be good but can’t force themselves to login anymore.

President cant even clear the intro campaign so who is he to talk?

I don't understand the "no addons" argument. Even if you ban all addons ingame, people will still use addons. Either they cheat or use an external 3rd party program on their second screen to read out the game's data. You just move the DBM/BigWigs timers to your second monitor and you can play the same as before but more complicated and unnecessary difficult. For RWF guilds a outside raidleader like Scripe could set up stopwatch timers to announce abilities and stuff. Having no addons won't fix people having no addons it just makes the life more difficult and annoying when you want to have success in raiding. Which makes the game less accessible and it's the complete opposite of what you want to achieve. Also: Saying that Asmon can't clear mythic is so dumb. Bro was Rank 12 Arms Warrior in Emerald Nightmare mythic and was something top 100 Warrior in Nighthold mythic overall. That's something our precious Qwik aka Mike Ybarra never peaked at any given point. Of course he can easily clear a Dragonflight mythic raid which are way easier than the Legion ones.

The argument of easier raids would bring back players is bullsh*t, Aberrus is literally the easiest raid released since EN, have we seen a massive interest in doing it? no, we've actually seen a quicker drop off because the good players dont find it fun and then the other players dont get groups. Aberrus will also NOT be memorable at all, there's literally no memorable fight. The difficulty thing is already solved through difficulty modes, if people feel bad they they cannot do higher difficulties then by that logic a game like Remnants 2 also needs to remove Nightmare and Aplocalypse mode because people cant do it?

asmon is right ,retail is made for 0.1% of players

Over 10k views but just 200 likes😂😂😂

Ybarra can´t even make good games.

i click dont recommend asmongold, dont recommend asmongold clips, and i still get recommended reactors talking about him on 10 different channels.

I think the Blizzard's President isn't a true gamer and only a money man. Lol

Reacting to asmongold is his goal... he's a rage baiter and clearly is using mental stupidity for money. I never listen to him seriously. Most of his logic is kind of very primitive and boring

I don't really enjoy Asmongolds content delivery, even when I agree with something he says. Asmon delivers his speech a little like shock jocks, nearly always hating on the game. He is one of many content creators that's been saying WoW is dying or dead.... like for 10 years. Name ANY game that had stayed relevant that long. In this Ammon take, he says CAta too hard, then indicates that hardcore popped off.

love seeing the hate watchers in here for Asmon. Stay in denial lads, dude has clear mythic fights before and can do so again if he so chooses. He just doesnt want to give your DSAG game any free viewership. Enjoy that HC regurgitated content 🤣 .

Blizz Prez isn't wrong. Asmongold is a scrub.

I dunno why everyone is suddenly pretending like Asmon is a high end mythic player and a R1 PvPer but he just chooses not to do it that was never even his focus in the game ffs, stop clouting for him (and i dont mean scripe himself but there's a big thing going on right now that Asmon is secretly a very good player but is 'hiding his power' -_-)

trump was president once remember that

Asmon's takes are just not valid & this is a waste of my time.
