>>577219121Aren't you on tbc EU? I think I've played with you before.
>>577219171>Buck broken blizzdrones will still eat it up.I mean yeah, they played SoD for fuck sakes
what's a camelto?
32 more sleeps bros.
By the way, people are speculating that the reason it's called Camelot is because the Scarlet Enclave raid takes place in New Avalon.
>>577220225I keep almost re subscribing and hopping onfuck fuck fuck
>>577220343>Scarlet Enclave raid This would pretty much destroy the game instantly. Vanilla already has 7 raids you can do at level 60, there's no reason to add a new one. Especially knowing how incompetent modern Blizzard is. This scarlet raid would most likely be after Naxxramas and thus invalidate all the previous content and power creep destroy the whole game.
>>577221368This is the problem with any "classic+" they would feel the need to add new "flashy" types of content like a new raid but it would just destroy the whole game and turn the game into retail where you only do the current raid of the current patch and the rest of the game means nothingat least we have era and hardcore
>>577219171you already posted that
>>577221368>naxx being better than everything else is fine>but another raid being better than naxx? This destroys the gameCryboomers are really fucking stupid huh
>>577219171a lot of people are in for a rude awakening
>its another "shaman putting down an air totem that isnt wf when im mogging everyone on dps without it" kind of episode
>>577221630MC, BWL, AQ40, Onyxia, ZG, AQ20 are all still played even when naxx is out, retard.
>>577221745Ret? I usually whisper the shaman in the group how much of a DPS impact WF is. If they're still stubborn about it, I just leave the group.
>>577221368Yep, sad thing is the people who want these seasonal retail servers don't care about that. They just want something new to play for a few weeks and then they move on to the next seasonal twitch kiddie thing with their streamer. They are not looking for a long term MMO to play.
>>577222032Without new content you dont have a long term MMO retardEra is dead while retail is the most popular MMO
>>577222013arms but i feel your pain. ret is unplayable without wf
>>577222370ERA has been thriving for half a decade with zero updates, good games don't need new content because they have infinite re playability. Only seasonal twitch kiddies need new content drops to get their broccoli brains buzzing.
>>577221368for me it doesn't matter, I only play the game for money these days and these kind of retail updates are perfect for that. The kids love it and that's when moms credit card gets swiped and I rake in the dough.
>>577222804>with zero updatesThat's where you're wrong.>Ranking changes>WCB changes>Wbuff changes>Chronoboon changes>Dual spec
>>577222804Era has been completely dead since the day tbc opened, its one of the least popular versions of the game with less than 1% of the players retail has. In no world can it be called thriving It also has no replayability. Its a shitty, shallow and very very static game that offers no new experiences only beloved by the learning disabled
>>577222804blud unironically making posts like this when people constantly ask for fresh
Era is not dead at all
some dumbasses on another raid team in my guild were using ai to do loot council prios
era is so dead even sheen quitlet that sink in
>>577224708i saw him playing just a couple days ago doe
>>577224708he was farming DME today?????
>>577225379>>577225645>already relapsedWow, that didn't take long. They don't call them eternally relapsed addicts for nothing!
Alexensual runs this generalAlexensual gave you classic wowAlexensual gave you birthAlexensual is the most skilled classic and retail player of history of WoW
>Quitting WoW to go do something else when Classic+ is right around the cornerI literally don't understand what's going on in his mind. Unless he got a way more lucrative job like being a TV weatherman?
>>577227440>trying to understand a loser schizoyou'll be trying forever.one thing to keep in mind is that he constantly lies so whatever he is saying, its never the truth. i'd tell you its better to never pay attention but i am guessing you are well aware.
huh, horde aren't so tough when they can't 1v1 you
seasonal retail status? all gear and gold you bought being reset status? you will repeat the same cycle next seasonal retail?
>>577223335toilet crusade is bleeding 20-30k players every week and its currently running its seasonal retail cycle, imagine the toilet had been flushed 5 years ago with no updates, that dog shit game would not even have 1 bot online. Meanwhile ERA with zero new content for 5+ years maintains a thriving community. Only Vanilla can do this.
>>577230949Hey, don't make fun of seasonal twitch kiddies, they paid for my house and car. When season of Camelot comes out they will buy me a new rental property.
>the niller seething and samefagging about expansions woke up
I can't wait to play a skyborne necromancer in classic+
>>577221368Look at twow, Kara40 didn't invalidate previous content. The other new raids were supplemental, with Timbermaw Hold being tier 2.5 equivalent.
>>577221745as an ele sham I refuse to put down WF
>>577219171+>tons of RMT>tons of bots>tons of losers advertising boosts for other losers>heavy queues>loser streamers and their army of losers
The more I level through MoP the more I begin to realize heirlooms ruined questing in this game.
>>577232987that was always apparent
>>577232987it ruined dungeons as well, you basically don't need any drops for 1-70
>>577219493the video quality of that is wild for being 20 years old now
>>577234287ruins any sense of progressiontruly we the time of transition from levelling to endgame
>>577219493v2https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hERJUTMxbnw
>>577219171I wonder if classic+ will still stick to the subscription only or you'd have to buy upgrades like retail.
I CAN'T PLAY THE GAMEBLIZZARDWHAT THE FUGGG
>>577221530>turn the game into retail where you only do the current raid of the current patch and the rest of the game means nothingThat's a personal choice; no one is stopping you from doing older content. Why don't you go run older raids?>w-well the gear that drops from those raids is useless for meOh, so you refuse to do content unless it drops better gear than what you have currently? Congratulations, you are the problem. Everything you claim to hate about "retail" is a direct response to your playstyle where YOU decide that the only content you will engage with is what drops higher ilvl gear.
>do bwl>Resto sham>Healing shield drops>Some faggot parasite "ele sham" with half enh gear rolls too and wins>tard RL gives it to him because he CBA checking for Ms and OSIt's always a guzu shitter >Win the nature alignment crystal later>That same parasite instantly whispering and begging to buy it from me Dude was clearly a gold buying retard. Told him to fuck off to the swamp like the leech he is
>>577238112SoD solved this btw.Old raids drop coins you trade for toys or loot boxes with materials in them.Even with enclave out, people still constantly run MC, AQ, ZG, bwl. You can often get boosted by geared players in "coin runs" in MC.
>>577232084Was turtie developed by fattgrend and his group of gay centaurs?
>>577239080only the gay centaurs
>>577238440Kind of reminds me of MoP when everyone was chasing their legendary cloaks, high end geared players would still run old raids to min max their progress so you could basically join normal/heroic runs on your alts and get fed tons of gear the day you hit lvl cap.
did Soddie do anything about weapon skill?
>>577238440and instead of doing something similar in tbc, e.g. with heroic badges that would encourage geared ppl to still run dungeons, they reward raid loggers even more with the pots for marks changesabsolute clown company, cameltoes gonna be shit 100%
kinda weird how they never tried to make the china wotlk global
>>577221630The problem with a new raid that drops even better gear than t3 is that the numbers are getting astronical for the small hp everyone has. T3 was so strong and optimized that they cleared tbc raids with it. The only thing they can do is give it a ton of stamina, but that invalideates pvp gear. There is no winning move to expand what exists.
>>577221368>>577246289Can't they just make harder raids than Naxx that give better gear? How did OSRS fix this problem?
>>577246289>chud showing he never raided kara40 on twowThey did the power scaling perfectly. tier 3.5 was awesome.
this general really turned into a retirement home, huhno shitposting anymoreno flame warsjust comfy maxxing nu-boomers yapping about the aame old gameno porn
>>577248001>How did OSRS fix this problem?osrs was destroyed within 2 years of it being out with insane power creep from new bosses and content that they added, the game came out in 2013 and was destroyed beyond repair by 2015 with the release of ZulrahThe only new raid content you could add into classic+/camelot is gear pieces that fill out voids/missing things, for example a relics/totem slots, ring/trinket that buffs a shit spec like boomie/ele/sp
>>577251264You can have new raids that have new type of gear requirements. in twow k40 the entire raid needed an arcane resist set, there was no way around it. You do other gimmicks like needing vampirism gear, or other shit like that. You can have things grow horizontally.
>>577251479You could add mini raids with 1-2 bosses that drop new stuff for professions, dual spec unlock token, mount, consumable packs or tokens to buy them with. Raids can be good content even without gear drops.
>>577251264iirc OSRS released 4 more raids after that and its bussin
>>577253659bussin same as retail wow
>>577220835Play hardcore
>>577254782no point with camelot around the corner
>>577254869We still got at least a month. Hardcore is a good timekiller.
>>577254869You gonna die in a couple days anyway.
>>577246289> T3 was so strong and optimized that they cleared tbc raids with it. This is just tbc content being a joke. There is no limit to how good gear can be> The only thing they can do is give it a ton of stamina, but that invalideates pvp gear.Make new pvp gear
>>577255383its not possible to die in hardcore, especially if you level professions and use consumes.
>>577246289So redo raid gear scaling to accommodate newer raids.
I started octowow as a twow refugee who got bored of tbc, but idk guys. Feels pointless to commit with Camelot so close.I sure hope it's closer to turtle then it is to SoD, but I'm not holding my breath.
Guys I'm trying to kill time till classic+, what do?I don't have a wife or kids and I'm on disability so now work. My friends all have jobs and kids and no time for MMOs, although a few said they'll try classic+
>>577258095Lotr war in the north got re-released for twenty bucks. Check that out. Otherwise start a new hardcore character.
>>577255801>This is just tbc content being a joke.That was an issue of early tbc itemization being so bad, they had to buff all kara gear to be better than dungeon blues. I don't think we saw this iteration of t4 in classic.
>>577246289you can make later sets give set bonuses like vampiric touch, crusader strike etc. you dont have to keep pumping stats and damage higher
>almost 100 pulls on garrosh and havent even seen the stormwind phase>meanwhile gdkps are 1 shotting himhonestly feel like just quitting the game
>>577263364That sounds cool, but also like effort.
>>577264505can't you just solo him once the next seasonal retail cycle goes live invalidating all the previous content?
>>577258095I've been watching 4-5 movies per day, nothing is worth playing atm
>>577232202yeah youre bad at the game then
>join wsg in progress>we are losing>still win the gamekwab
>>577273097my spell power is more important
i miss alexensual, bwos...
>>577263364Why would you press crusader strike if its not going to increase your damage? Obviously it's going to push damage higherWhy, if you acknowledge that Ret needs crusader strike, are you putting it on gear players wont always have?
>>577276000Read the post again.
Do you think they will remove ZG from cameltoe? I don't think this raid should exist it ruins classic progression and is just annoying
>>577278923unc its classic+ not classic-
>>577278923most likely you can get naxx level gear from daily quests and dungeons, maybe even from the cash shop
>>577274004its not
>>577283607t. mad chud melee who can't top caster dps
we are herehttps://www.twitch.tv/einbaumhttps://www.twitch.tv/einbaum
>>577284046imagine believing 100 sp is better than the ability to hit twice. youd probably seethe if someone gave you a buff that gives 100 ap instead of spells having a chance to land twice
>>577284470false equivalency spells != autoattack
>>577284737Auto attacks are like half of a melee's damage
>>577285117sounds like you should've spent a bit more time reading books instead of learning to swing a sword then

>>577219171what does disneyfication mean
>>577287225"Disney bloat" in **World of Warcraft (WoW)** refers to the perception that the game has become overly "disnified" or softened in tone, deviating from its darker, more serious, and war-driven roots. Players who use this term feel that **modern WoW** has incorporated too many quirky, whimsical, or lighthearted elements, making it feel more like a Disney-style fantasy than the gritty, dangerous world it originally portrayed.In the early versions of WoW and its predecessor games (*Warcraft* series), the lore and atmosphere were much more grim, focusing on brutal wars, political intrigue, and mature themes like betrayal, death, and survival. However, over time, players believe that the game's tone shifted to appeal to a broader, more family-friendly audience. This shift can include:1. **Cutesy characters and races** (e.g., Pandaren, Vulpera) that feel more cartoonish or playful.2. **Goofy quests or NPCs** that break immersion or have a comical tone instead of maintaining the game's darker atmosphere.3. **Bright, colorful visuals** that contrast with the grimmer aesthetic of classic WoW.4. **Simplification of storylines and gameplay** to appeal to a wider and more casual audience.To these players, the game's overall atmosphere has been diluted by these elements, making it feel more like a mainstream, sanitized fantasy world—akin to Disney productions—rather than the intense and dangerous world of war it used to be. This concept of "Disney bloat" captures the feeling that the original essence of *Warcraft* has been watered down by an excess of "soft" or "quirky" content.
>>577287720>he needs ai to define the words he makes upuhh lol?
>>577287225You will get it if you compare the old male tauren with the goofy new models. Overly expressive with big eyes.
>>577288946but what does it mean?
>IT DOESNT COUNT!!!testaments
>but saar my calculator gave you the answer. why do i need to show my work?
>>577289426"Disneyfication" refers to the game becoming more cartoony and losing its edge. Going all the way back to a cata questline and removing the word "bitch." Turning sexy paintings into fruit. The whole story being reduced to the power of friendship. Everyone just handwaving the warcrimes previously committed. You could also call it "PG-ifying" but since most Disney films are G/PG it's the same concept.
>>577292664The clip should have shown the male orc and tauren walk animations. They jump from side to side and it's really annoying. Not as bad on the smaller races.
>>577292664both look "disney" by that definition, thoughever
>>577293625Correct. That's quite literally what was said about the graphics of WoW when it first came out. Go find the G4TV Judgment Day review of WoW vs EQ2 and they'll say that. WoW's cartoony graphics transition from WC3 was there, but it got more cartoony after the graphics rehaul, and then the world and characters got neutered after. I'm sure you can tell that one is more "disneyified" than the other though.
>>577284470kek bodied that freak

Massive Blizzcon leak just dropped -you know where
pvp gear shouldn't be in the game, but classic boomers aren't mature enough for that conversation
>>577300617those are the only people who say pvp gear shouldnt be in the game doey
>>577300348...where, anime poster?
>>577219171Reminder that Classic+ will never be as good as Turtle. That's why Blizzkikes had to kill it as they knew they terrified of the inevitable comparisons that they'd lose. Too bad there are several Turtle clones now. Blizztroons lost.
It's been 2 years, 4 montsh, and 10 days since Barnybee's last video.
>>577305217Pffhahhahahahahahhaha
>>577300617You shouldn't be in the game. PvP gear is great because not everyone wants to have to raid with trannies for 1,000 hours so they can one shot n00bs in BGs all day.

>>577318327chillin, holding wrs, immune to retail+
>>577319379is that why nillers need 40 people to raid while the others only need 25?
thats more frostbolts to huh, raidlead tho.
one retoilet is worth a thousand nillers
why does everyone bring 40 people to the raids anyways? you dont ever need 40 people and 90% of the raid is the same class so youd think removing a few people to get better chances at loot would be a popular idea
>>577319689volumes nuke
>>577319689but when you ask people why they prefer 25 they say its too hard to sustain 40 so...

hey bros, what is it that makes the cataclysm version of azeroth feel smaller while 'niller feels bigger?so far all I really know is that increased the render distance and removed that 'mist' that you saw shrouding parts of the world

>>577323861i've been questing lately in moppy and i had the feeling that everything feels a lil smallerthe quest pathing might be it since the quests are all located around one area more or less
