Inn a role playing game quests are party of is essence. Try paying dungeons and dragons without questing, it can't be done. It's literally party of the genre. Plus the amount of real lore and question answering in this xpac is insane. If you don't like questing anymore it's probably you who have to move on.
I think they can remove the MM of MMORPG.
Well it's not even a RPG any more. They can remove that as well.
It's just a single-player online game now.
Nothing triggers me more than someone using the word 'forced' when talking about a video game. Also this thread proves you can't win. Someone will moan about everything
Yeah its all the fault of player complaining about repetitive boring grind in MoP and lack of world content! Thats basically asking for forced quest grind in unoriginal unconnected zones designed just around nonstop quest grind courses! How dare you to ask for relatively less quest and more content that gives you room to breath besides the quest grind course. You have to choose either with lack of anything or shit! There is no other way like not pushing shit in your face everywhere you go at cost of everything else!
Its all your fault. Im not saying they can never do wrong, but Blizzard is perfect and never does anything wrong.
And its just your opinion. Opinions that are anything but cheerleading for Blizzard are invalid! Stop speaking for the millions who unconditionally love it which I know for a fact because I say so. Please leave be more constructive by not saying anything that contradicts my echochamber!
Time to give up MMORPG's OP because this is as good as it gets.
I love it
There is the sad paradox of a world which is more and more sensitive about being politically correct, almost to the point of ridicule, yet does not wish to acknowledge or to respect believers’ faith in God
OP - Why are you playing WoW then? We're 12 years in and you've always had to level up, usually with questing being a significant part of that. This cannot possibly be a surprise to you. Quests are and always have been a core component of WoW... so why are you still playing if you have them so much? It's like saying "I hate the whole instances thing" or "It annoys me that gear matters."
I mean if you have specific complaints about Legion questing, cool, but complaining about the mechanism seems odd.
Well, brace yourself for the world quest since they are basically the same quests you already did but you'll need to repeat them every day.
By the way, "forced" is the right word since you HAVE to do quests to get the daily chest....you'll probably need to do them until you have your garr...ehm class hall completed and every legendary.
World quests are basically fake content and a chore like the dailies in mop (something that I totally miss since I didn't play), blizzard copied way too much diablo 3, this isn't an arpg, this is supposed to be an mmorpg yet they still focus on single player boring content.
How about eliminate istances and make everything phased, how about collecting things for a common objective like they did with aq...
They just went with the lazy approach again, I guess they are investing all the time on the questing phase to sell copies of the game, they probably think they can retain casuals with repetitive content and hardcore players with raiding but they aren't building an mmo anymore, this is more like diablo.
I got 1 to 110 while still watching cutscenes and reading text in 12 hours. My other 2 chars I've gotten to 110 in about 9 hours. If you can focus you can level fast without slamming through everything. Also this is the first expansion I've ever leveled more than 1 char to cap
Uhh, no. Not at all. I've played since vanilla, and never once has questing helped me improve on my ability to play a toon. The only way it help me, is by getting me to max level, which is fuckin arbitrary, the need to keep increasing level cap anymore is silly. Add new areas, new quest hubs, new lore, new factions and rep, but make them mostly optional. Those who wish to participate in that part of the game can, and those of us who prefer not to can enjoy the game our way. Do you know how to improve yourself? You go somewhere challenging, and try. Like UBRS back in the day, learned to kite with my hunter. BC heroics were great to learn to tank and CC.
Quest mobs... yeah.. spam a few buttons until shits dead and move on to the next, much fun, such challenge, wow, lrearning!
It's interesting that players' experiences regarding leveling time and zones are so different. I wonder what's going there, I don't believe large amounts of players suddenly start lying about this for no reason, either exaggerating or understating the amount of quests.
I for one hit 110 slightly more than halfway through my last zone, without doing a single dungeon. Did my order hall quests and bonus objectives though.
The questing seems fine, it doesn't take that long if done efficiently (see conslegion). What really puts me off from leveling an alt already is artifact power, gated quests and professions. Those just feel brickwally.
Regarding treasures, I did get exp for them early on, but only about 830. After a while it just stopped completely. Seems strangely inconsistent.
