[digichi]

man the artists love eyes huh

[Magicon]

I bet they are focusing alot on 9.0 now, and a bit on the look of Nya'lotha.

[Tarx]

Ugly weapons .

Gear appearance on BFA is one of the reasons I never bothered to step into a singe RAID FINDER or other difficult levels on this expansion. With the Tiers gone they pulled out extremely dated gear, with minimum to none particle effects. I could pick any of the 12 classes of this game, gear wouldn't fit any class fantasy.

The second reason is that classes are boring as hell. I fail to see this as an EXPANSION at all... I looks more like a Hard reset.

I can't believe that they think that Removing skills, Artifacts, passives and tier gear is EXPANDING the experience.

I would be ok on never stepping into a raid on this expansion if M+ were fine.

M+ is super annoying on this expansion and some classes completely useless in the beginning of the expansion.

I was maining Guardian druid for like 14 years of WOW. Imagine not being accepted for M+ in first two Raid tiers (and paying for that treatment) of this expansion because of bad class design. I'm not playing this game currently and it's been one of the best decisions that I did. I'm learning flute, learning culinary school, reading books, learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and Learning another language with my free time now.

I thank Blizzard for screwing their own game, the only one who could make me stop playing their casino were themselves, and they did it!

So happy we have transmog. All these look terrible!

UGLY AF is more the term ahahah

[Queen of Hamsters]

Wow, it’s so fortunate for blizzards asset creation that goblins heritage armor looks just like a generic, decade old set of mail

Good to see they’re still cranking out the hits in this shambling corpse of a game

Not as good as it is to see the people still salty about the game 15 years down the line.

An entire expansion of transmog options i never considered using on my main.
This whole "drops look like the place they come from" thing really isn't working for me.

It clearly isn't working for the developers neither.
All they create are sets that don't go with anything. The best sets (details, unique features etc) of the expansion have been the Warfront higher tiers, and those are race themed rather than themed by Darkshore or Arathi. Most of the Heritage sets have also been pretty solid.

Class fantasy + Raid theme has clearly been a much better approach for the past decade+, hopefully they'll go back to it.

wonder witch one drops of n'zoth.

I agree on the warfront ones. They are rather good, i actually wore it for about a week or 2, before switching back to Legion-sets.
They are probably also the reason why we will be seeing SW-human,orc,night-elf and forsaken heritage armor dead-last. Since, you know, we already got 4 per race with these.

My thought exactly. They look awful, all of them.

[Blackmist]

Well they're all ugly as shit.

I guess the nice thing about adding transmog is they no longer have to design anything that looks nice. Don't like it? Mog it!

[deplorable]

someone tell blizzard swords are used to slice things and not whatever these square edged blocks are designed for

they aren't though, Japanese ones are don't get me wrong, but medieval swords were used to break bones, etc.

In fact after the battle, and the people came in and robbed the dead soldiers of their belongings, the majority of the soldiers could lie for days before succumbing to death unable to move, impossible to heal

[Lurker1]

those are awesome for my shadow priest but other then that pretty meh at best.

[Zyrinx]

Fuuuuuuugly, every single one of them. Forcibly reminded of the Legendary Rogue daggers from Dragon Soul, which were hideous.

[Biz]

The weapons this xpac have been absolutely awful. The lone exception might be some of the alliance warfront ones (horde ones are dull and lifeless).

It's funny when people complained about artefact weapons, now we have this hot mess.

Also I've seen enough hentai to know where a good amount of these weapons are going.

That's actually really cool to know. Of course that isn't Blizzard's reasoning, they just can't seem to design weapons without making them look like they got their references from a Fisher price catalog. Blizzard alike most medieval game developers are under the more common mispresumption that swords are slashing weapons.

This is partly true, but swords were also made to be sharp to slice and wound

Doesn't compute when they put out Legion Artifact appearances just a few years back.

It's just a blatant lack of effort.

Goldshire?

[Biz]

Goldshire?

Use your imagination, that makes it more fun.

[Wayne25uk]

Has anybody mentioned how the darkmoon faire has an N'zoth eye yet?

[Gloriandus]

Thick sword blades again. Yeesh!
