Could WoW work today? In the past it managed to have an even 50/50 faction split and there was only pretty race drama when WoW tried pushing overseas to China but now everyone is obsessed with aesthetics and gooning. Literally who is playing an orc or a tauren outside of the 2% of gamers who are gay daddy bears?
He’s right
What class can I solo to 60
>>747642134>pretending wow is relevant in 2026
>>747642134>Could WoW work today?It never worked to begin with. It's literally a game made to weed out losers from society.
>>747642134It couldn't work today because the streamers would want to play together and that'd completely disrupt faction balance and their fans all roll the same faction as them. This was killing certain MMO servers in the past, if you got on the streamer server then you fucked up and were going to be miserable. >>747642207Any of them. But the best class to pick is not playing a NuBlizz product.
>>747642207literally any, you could even play healing spec solo leveling if you really hate yourself, vanilla(ish) wow is not a complex game
>>747642249>>747642324>ABIB pretending wow was never big and that the catalogue isn't half WoW Forever threadsWhat causes this autism?
>In the past it managed to have an even 50/50 faction split
>>747642134They should have removed factions like 5 expansions ago
>>747642134>Literally who is playing an orc or a tauren outside of the 2% of gamers who are gay daddy bears?Around 50% of players.
>>747642324Factually untrue. It opened up the MMO market to the normies, it was the first major MMO to do so. 10% of the content was tryhard shit but the rest appealed to pretty much everyone.
>>747642848They all but have done that in retail. You can guild with, raid with, M+ with, and even PvP with members of the opposite faction.
>>747642134>Could WoW work today?No because WoW is and has always been a shit game. Its just that back in it's prime it was a shit game with no direct competition and being hard carried by it's community.The MMO genre itself is a relic of a gone era and it deserves to die and be forgotten for what it did to gaming.
>>747642971Taurens look cool, and I don't give a fuck about anything else.Only fags play as humans.
>>747643770Not necessarily. Direction of these MMOs which came after Ultima Online is just horrible. Oversimplified trash with casino mechanics as usual.Too bad any form of innovation is too risky now.WoW is also fugly as hell.
>>747642134I remember watching badass Horde WoW movies set to JPOP made by Chinese guilds well before blood elves were added so I dont believe this narrative of Asians rejecting all races except elves
>>747644072Maybe if the genre had evolved in a different direction and hadn't become the precursor to pretty much all the bad shit that has become standard in gaming. The only thing MMOs can't be blamed for is lootboxes and that's about it.
>>747642134It will flop for the same reason every 'classic' endeavour flops in the current day. The fun and nostalgia of these experiences stemmed from being a kid with no responsibilities AND the low information environment of the internet back then.You can't replicate those factors. These days everyone has the knowledge and intent to act like a metagamer which will kill the magic very quickly.
