Warcraft Arclight Rumble - New Mobile Game

[Funkyjunky]

Uh, they're in the main game (WoW), just not in playable form. If anything, this only solidifies that the "Tinker" is indeed a class archetype in Warcraft.

I don't think that this game solidifies anything in the warcraft universe.

Expected it to look very mobile gamey. Yeah, gonna give this one a pass. I'm sure it'll find its market somewhere.

[rrayy]

cuz maybe the younger and newer audience isn't playing WoW, and I highly doubt this is what's going to draw them in. Blizz's main audience is 30 year old white dudes, lets be real.

They don;t have to play WoW to get into this,. Mobile games are very popular with the younger people and this is a similar game to others that are already out there, just with a Warcraft theme.

Is anyone else annoyed that this is another "game within the game"? I was really hoping for something canon....

[Xorzor]

Pass. It's a mobile game so it must automatically be deemed crap!

Moving on...

[GreenJesus]

I like the art style, and Tower Offense sounds like a cool twist on the genre. High quality mobile games can be fun sometimes, I'm excited to give it a try.

The overwhelmingly negative response from the users here and on YouTube is so typical, it's sad.

There is literally nothing that's innovative. There are multiple games like this from Clash Royale and the League of Legends one as well. This actually looks like a scuffed version of those.

True, though I did like the Plants vs. Zombies game in WoW. It was fun.

[KevyB]

BWOHAHAHAHA omg no i can't

[Icechaosss]

Yep lotta smoothbrain takes imo. People are like why isn't it like Diablo immortal but yet those same people were mad about that too. Most negative people in here would have been mad no matter what it was.

Not sure if the game is my cup of tea but I'm mature enough to realize that and move on. Some people need to grow up that's for sure.

Don't expect that on this forum my dude.

Remember, 99% of MMO-C users just want to be angry for being angry sake.

The game may not be for me, but I'll play it for a little and see how it is. Never know, Clash Royale ended up being bigger than Clash of Clans, and no one really expected that.

[Twdft]

Wtf did people expect? It's a mobile game and y'all should feel lucky you don't like it... because it's gonna be monetized to high heavens.

Target audience for mobile games are kids and people with more time than sense and no clue how to hold their money together.

[MoanaLisa]

Eh...not my cup of tea at all.

Nonetheless it will likely be popular with mobile gamers and with Diablo Immortal and this their MAU's as a company should look better. That's assuming that when Microsoft takes over they'll even report them out separately which I think is unlikely.

Not surprised to see many trying to outdo each other for the take that will get the most responses.

I'm not at all certain I understand why anyone expects Blizzard to do a mobile game that works closely with a 20-year-old IP that mobile users are not that interested in.

[Malico]

Pretty cool!

[Gadzooks]

I don't mobile game so I won't make a "and get off my lawn, kids!" post - it is what it is, and mobile gaming isn't going anywhere.

But I am astounded...flabbergasted...that they have not spun the pet battles off into a mobile game. It's a no brainer. Tons of work has already been done developing it as a mini game, within WoW. Hell, I don't mobile game, but I'd be tempted to try it, because when I still played WoW I enjoyed pet battles. (But I think I know why...they wouldn't be able to monetize it as hard as they can a game like this.)

Which leads to the only curiosity I have here - what's the business model? Expansion packs? Purchasable heroes? P2W features?

Other than that, I've already forgotten the name of this. I had to scroll up. Kids! I tell ya!

It's pretty much a clash royale ripoff

I'm angry, because this mobile game looks like a cheaper rip-off of an old and popular game.

[Fuiking]

Do you guys not have phones?

*snickers* Good one, good sir.

Also... yes.. but this abonimation wont ever disgrace my phone. Ever.

That's literally what the leaks from a few years ago said.

It says quite a bit that the Tinker appears in every WC-related game.

[Nutri]

I've been playing Flow Free for iOS on the shitter for about 7 years now. This might be a good replacement!

[Razorice]

This is worse than expected.
and my expectation were low to begin with.
