WoW Classic
WoW classic. Shadowlands isn't bad either honestly
Classic
I've seen a bunch of people make sóyfaces for Diablo 4
Arguably that wasnt their "idea", but pushed in by player demand, they could only choose whether to do it or not. (and we still have better working private servers)
You thought you did but you didn't though
No idea why. Diablo’s dark-gothic deepest-lore shit got thrown aside for bog standard corruption and Skinner box gameplay.
Diablo used to be edgy, painting the church as this dark organization working with the hells they’re supposed to save you from and the basement full of mutilated bodies. Then they got all family friendly and not quite so edgy and just plain generic dark fantasy.
I mean diablo, you had a kid who’s leg got eaten by demons, you came across a kid sacrificed on an alter, the butchers room, albrecht just being the prince and having a crystal jammed in his head so Satan could control him, hell even the town drunk was a drunk because that dude had seen some shit.
You don’t get edgy shit like that from Blizzard anymore because they’re so focused on broad appeal they won’t risk anything.
No. But that’s not the fault of Blizzard. They are doing the best they can.
The problem is toxic video gaming communities looking for the next thing to be outraged about. As gamers, we should be looking for ways to purge these toxic attitudes from our communities and not let it gain a foothold again.
Don't forget the Warcraft movie from 2016.
>Blitzchonk incident
The what now?
private servers are trash compared to official classic
someone used a post tournament interview to say something about gay people or whatever and got actioned by blizz for using his camera time as a platform to speak about things. huge backlash from people, but honestly blizz did the right thing
correction, not gay people, chinese protests
Oh, was it the free hong kong shit after a hearthstone tournament?
bingo. ppl were all behind the cause but its still not really approved content for their tournament... he was supposed to be talkin about hearthstone instead of politics
HOS is/was decent.
The idea of a Warcraft 3 Remaster (as well as Diablo 2) is fine, in theory.
New hearthstone gamemodes are pretty fun.
Classic WoW hasn't devolved into Classic+ levels of idiocy (although I wouldn't hold my breath to it).
With Blizzard recently you really are looking for specks of gold among the vast waves of shitty rock.
So... why the name Blitzchonk? That's the vaguest name I've ever heard.
i think its based on the player's game name
Overwatch is a well polished and fun game where all it was missing was single player and when they finally add it alongside the main game so ppl don't lose all their cool stuff they have been collecting everyone shits on them , stop playing games and focus on your shitty job that makes your life miserable pls
>and we still have better working private servers
Dont forget niggers and tranny in shadowlands.
Also blm shit in their wow announcement video.
they couldn't use that excuse because they had rainblow flags and inclusion and tranny shit at all their tournies. Nobody would get actioned for saying some shit that would get you shot in a just society like "trans rights" etc.
It's Blitzchung
>hong kong player named Blitzchung wins hearthstone match in a tournament, gets interviewed
>he says "liberate hong kong, revolution of our time"
>stream cuts short
>blitzchung is banned, no prize money
>both casters who conducted the interview are banned
>people see it as yet another example of blizzard catering to the chinese government
>bunch of hearthstone casters quit
>blizzard decides to give blitzchung his prize money back after the backlash
>to this day, they stopped making post-game interviews
Release Overwatch and WoW Classic are the only 2 things Blizzard has done right in so long that I wonder how multiple executives haven't been taken to Kotick's back yard and shot.
FF14 dethroning WoW as King of MMOs was mostly Blizz's fault too for letting WoW become so dogshit. We all thought it was going to happen because the dethroner was going to be the best MMO ever made. The "WoW Killer."
Nope, Blizz did all the work itself.
>FF14 dethroning WoW as King of MMOs
FF14 hasn't even dethroned ESO lmao.
>FF14 dethroning WoW
ff14 is literally everything shitty about modern wow turned up to 11 though.
14's the most played MMO in the world user, no matter your opinion of the game. It dethroned WoW quite some time ago.
>14's the most played MMO in the world user
Are FF14 players really delusional enough to think this?
They don't need to think it when everybody knows. You don't need to Republicanize gaming reality user. You can just accept the coin slot eyed MMO is more played than the shell of WoW.
>everybody knows
>source: my fc said so
>go to official FF14 discord server
>everyone in the user list is playing WoW
lmao
>(and we still have better working private servers)
Please don't tell me you actually believe this.
>FF14 dethroning WoW as King of MMOs
Your deflections won't change the truth you Blizzcucks can't accept. Try a strawman next?
Just accept it anons. The truth won't hurt you. Your MMO hasn't been good in years thanks to your own company's inability to keep the original team together, which has gone off the form its own thing.
Or you can stay mad. Your choice.
>we still have better working private servers
NAME ONE (1)
>Your MMO hasn't been good in years
the FFlogs dev disagrees.
>Genshin not on top of mobile
That dude is a dumbfuck, but it is true that FF14 has dethroned WoW in the sense that it now has much more influence than WoW.
Just look at how WoW has cloned XIV content over time.
>Wants to disprove something, shows a post which even mid praise can't resist critiquing the game because there is so much to criticize.
The absolute smoothness of the brain KEK
>crossfire
>fantasy westward journey online
what the FUCK are those games even?
literally the first time I've heard of those
>Just look at how WoW has cloned XIV content
lmao, how?
XIV copied a ton from WoW, but not so much the other way around.
I haven't played seriously since MOP, but really liked to follow the discussion on every new expansion. Why is no one discussing shadowlands?
>dumbfuck
>it's true
when the inner contrarian brain cell fights with the autistic brain cell
>which even mid praise can't resist critiquing the game
having nuanced opinions is a sign of being an adult, user. you'll get there someday.
But that is just releasing something old which was created by the competent used to be company. Don't count
wow classic
>Why is no one discussing shadowlands?
Are you braindead?
>But that is just releasing something old
no it's literally a remake. they used a modern client of the game to reconstruct the old assets.
Having functioning eyes is a part of life no matter the age. Get out of America and you'll get there someday.
Stay mad your MMO will never be king again faggot.
I might be, but what is the connection here?
>i'm so stupid that i'm only capable of mindlessly gushing about the things i love instead of also acknowledging their flaws
yep, it's an FFXIV player.
Blizzard didnt do anything good since 2003.
there are like 30 threads a day
there are 2 classic threads in the catalog and nothing else
Can't do anything but try to look cool on the internet as he fails to defend his dogshit game
Yep, the natural life cycle of a Blizzcuck.
Go ahead and reply again with some quip any 3rd grader could muster. You can't walk away from this thread just like you can't walk away from your dogshit MMO
You mean 1998?
>there aren't any threads at this exact moment so no one is discussing it
There's absolutely no helping how stupid you are.
