Ion: "You've been Scammed Sweetheart"

[BellicoseAxe]

Does anyone know any good memes?

[Pull My Finger]

you are just an addict who is being played.

There's a sweet irony to this, considering your indignation and the dramatic ductus of your initial post.

I'm really starting to like this Ion guy, it is with a charming verve how he understands to bring out the most hilarious in some people!

"We are not nerfing arcanocrystal because it would be unfair to those who already have it"

"Oh lets nerf the good legendaries because fuck people who have it"

Ion logic 101.

[grexly75]

Ahahahhaha. Oh lord.

The absolute incessant whinging and pathetic tantrums you guys throw over a Videogame is hilarious.

STOP PLAYING IF YOU ARE SO BUTTHURT ABOUT FUCKING PIXELS.

Makes me wonder what they are putting in the water, because the amount of whinging seems to be at plague proportions.. Maybe we are in the middle of a whingepocolypse..

[roahn the warlock]

They should have never put in Legendaries, who knew that the teenagers who play WoW would whine so much about a minor thing.

you get your first legendary in a week, your second in like a month now.

If the car does not work by design there is no one else to blame but the designer.

Exactly - and WoW is working just fine.

Seems resolved.

OP is representative of why the way of thinking of some of the community is sad, seems to think that only what matters is the gameplay, think the game is a service, etc. No, that's not what a video game is. A game is more than just its gameplay, it's a place where we feel good.
And the game is your choice to play or not, there's dozens of other games that could pretend to the title of best game of all times.

I don't know why I'm still trying to explain that, I think there's some stages that people have to go through and only time can make people understand things such as what matters and what doesn't.

Define "success".

I'd say an MMORPG that's been going strong for 12+ years as successful.

But in Blizzard's case - designing a system which appeals the majority of players.

In that case - WoW is still a success.

[Murderdoll]

And it looks like the opposite happened to Blizzard so that's fine.

Thats not quite true for World of Warcraft though.

While profits might be steady/up, the customer number is down. So that says two things.

Blizzard is becoming better as a company to streamline and better use its resources (even though WoW is still a fucking money pit) however, the customers are not happy with the product.

People can continue to suck at the nipple of Blizzard and put their head in the sands to the flaws. Thats fine. Just realise, that its your failure to accept that something NEEDS to change that will kill this game.

Guys GUYS GUYS!
I think it's time to relax now.
There is an issue with legendarys and i believe they are fixing it in 7.2.
We can actually target specific legendarys, yes it will be another grind, the worse of them all maybe, BUT you know what you are grinding for, and this is the worst problem atm.
Why didn't ion talk about this in the q&a i don't know, maybe they are not sure about implementing this solution SO, if this solution fits you, i believe you should start saying so.

If I only spend 12-15h a week I will fall behind quickly and no longer be competitive, at which point I might as well not waste my time.

That's the whole reason why they're redoing it, are you even paying attention?

[FelPlague]

Love the ION pic btw <3

Have to agree that car designers know how to develop a better product over the scrubknight bad drivers/etc out there - but you have to understand: If you build a bad car, you're going to be tanking a whole company as well with people no longer buying your products

also no person builds a car on their own
its not "ion alone made these changes" its many many people, and its not tanking the company

[ComputerNerd]

Blizzard can't please everyone.
Any time aimed at one group will mean that not aimed at another.
The problem is when that group left out demand that they are entitled to it, and others are not.

Much of what happens in wow is a long-term trend.
You are scammed as much as you let yourself be.

If the car does not work by design there is no one else to blame but the designer.

If the driver drives said car for 100000km without changing the Oil and the Car crashes and burns. It isn't the designers fault.

[Kanegasi]

Words like "broken" get tossed around this game like it means something. I've had no problems with this game. I can log in just fine and do things.

[Super Kami Dende]

Thats not quite true for World of Warcraft though.

Or the product is 12 years old and people have moved on in their lives and the genre as a whole is dying off.

[schwarzkopf]

If the driver drives said car for 100000km without changing the Oil and the Car crashes and burns. It isn't the designers fault.

Also - if the driver doesn't like the colour of the trim, or the brand of radio in the car - that's also not the designer's fault.

[Darsithis]

Posting a whine thread to tell everyone how they're scammed into playing and are just "addicts" is hardly useful or constructive.
