wow is ded and lolpandas
Please ohh Maestro, explain to me when 'the old days' were that required more skill than time?
Vanilla? where a raid team had to farm for hours pre raid? The honour grind to HWL?
BC where attunements meant guilds had to re run old content countless times to attune any new members (regardless of any skill level)? FOTM arena?
Or perhaps you mean 'the old days' are wrath?
Please, since it doesn't require skill anymore...tell me how I can get those shiny Gladiator mounts...I wants them. And please, let me get all 100% drop mounts from Heroic bosses without doing anything...because right now, I haven't been handed a damn thing in this game that I want without having to spend tons of time and effort into it.
There's easy content to be had, there's punishing content to be had. YOU seem to be stuck back in Vanilla where an epic mount was among the biggest success one could achieve...things change. some thousands and thousands of years ago it was a big thing lighting fire on a stick for humans and not getting eaten by a wooly beast with wonky eyes...would you want to go back to those times?
People claiming that nothing in WoW requires skill, are most likely being heavily carried OR they're not good enough to pursue the hardest content and simply label the game from what they themselves can reach...the easier content.
I would love the evidence showing LoL getting anywhere close to what Blizzard gets from WoW.
They would be happy to get 5% of it, but they don't have to support their game as much as Blizzard does.
One big thing is keeping Blizzard from making WoW F2P, and that is profit.
GASP PROFIT. The most evil word of all, who would even THINK of making a "profit", just the thought alone blows my mind that there are people in the world who would want to make money.
Sorry I had to be sarcastic.
I concur. Given that a lot of people who would have been thought to come back around the holidays and had an active subscription in Q1, there should have been some form of an increase.
I'm guessing (totally) here...but probably something 250k to 500k left but they reeled back in the same number.
give me a break. all I'm hearing is blizzard is using gifts and junk to entice subscribers. of course they are! this is a dog eat dog world. it's about money. if you don't like it don't do it. fact is WoW is still strong and doing great. deal with it.
There are two things I get tired of hearing 1. "wow killer" this and that 2. "so much DS I have no idea how this is going on" first off there is wayyyyyyyy more to do in the game then just dragon soul, actually there is more to do then ever do your LFR early in the week then do dailies, pvp, level alts, collect crap. Second DS will not be out nearly as long as BC was. Seriously stop saying "well so much DS" cause every time I do I feel like I need to smack you with my cane and yell "BACK IN MY DAY!"
If I got a scroll of resurrection and accepted the 7 day free time part of it but didn't pay for the extra 30 days am I counted as a subscriber?
Overall though I'm impressed. I thought for sure it would go down yet again. I do wonder how many people did the scroll and paid for the 30 days but cancelled right after.
