Shadowlands WILL have a level squish!

[Pebrocks The Warlock]

^Feel like all my hard work leveling was for nothing....

Same. This will be 10 times worse than any stat squish they've done.

[Eurhetemec]

If that are really all the features fuck this and fuck Blizzard for not listing to what players want and destroying WoW with this.

Oh look, it's what people say every expansion. Shit I remember Blizzard "destroying WoW" back in 2008 when they added DKs according to some people on the internet.

Yeah, that doesn't sound logical.

You guys need to seriously start actually reading before posting. You get the 120 boost RIGHT NOW if you pre-order.

[Kyr]

how do people not realize that a level squish is meaningless. you could take the game as it is right now, divide every number by 2 be it level, damage, stats, etc and IT WILL BE THE EXACT SAME GAME.

[Laqweeta]

Yeah, that doesn't sound logical.

We haven't seen the FULL list of features yet of course.

The boost is set to 120 because people are *still* 120.

[dess]

I think I'm just going to stay off the forums for awhile.

Ya'll a bunch of negative and depressing fuckers. It's like the moment the word "new" is spoken, people start thinking how many ways they can hate it.

Ditto, its a sad day today.

The game needs a reset, a clean slate and learn from the Journey Classic brings.
Blizzard needs to get back to having a WORLD that players play in.

Shadowlands is going to be Legion 3.0.

[Stormdash]

Why have the preorder state that there is a 120 boost, then?

It's the same as any other boost; you get (pre expac) a free max level or (post patch) a "skip all previous expacs" level.

People assuming that leveling to 50 in 9.0 will be as quick as 50 now aren't the sharpest knives in the drawer IMO.

[Luk3ling]

Bunch of bullshit. This is a fucking RPG. You’re saying the 120 levels and power I earned after 10 years are pointless? Fuck you blizzard. You had the ability to rehaul leveling without taking away pretty much the ONLY remnant of an RPG feeling left in the game, but nope, you decided to appeal to the retarded masses who think a big number is too scary.

Bullshit.

You're so clueless.

You've had your whole kit since level 10, why do you also want some arbitrarily large number to go with it?

This was an obvious next step. Its the best choice for the game and the players.

Such large numbers directly limit how meaningful each level can be as well as how much leeway they can give players in regards to choices.. quite frankly, anyone not on board for this has to be criminally dull to not realize the inherant and obvious positive effect it will have on the game.

shadowlands can be fucked with a stick for all i care now

You know WoW is at an all time low and people are leaving the game more and more. This "Features" are just more of the same things we have since 2 expansions and more of the same shit we have in the really, really AddOn BfA everyone hates. You really think that's good for the game and that it will go upwards now?

[Traveler Voltin]

All you do is complain about meaningless grinds in WoW but when they finally try to fix them you say the game is dead. Fuck off.

i never complained about a grind. wtf are you smoking

No, thank you. It certainly doesn't.

[Laqweeta]

It's actually confirmed now.

https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/ne...hadowlands-now even on the MAIN website.

[KayRule]

No, thank you. It certainly doesn't.

It actually does. Majority of people have been demanding a squish for awhile and they listened.

What is it, exactly, you think would be:

A) A feature of the expansion to be listed.

and

B) "Save WoW"?

Because if you answer "A new class" or "new races" or "8 zones instead of 5" or something we can safely dismiss your opinion in entirely.

Every Level Is Meaningful: Shadowlands will introduce a new leveling system, meant to provide a meaningful sense of advancement with every level achieved. Current max-level characters will begin Shadowlands at level 50 and work toward the new level cap of 60.

Wonder how true that article is since preorders say you get a 120 boost instead of saying 120 boost now (Level 50 at launch).

[glowpipe]

well good bye WoW.
you are dead to me

can i have your stuff ?

[Venziir]

People:
"The level cap is too high, too many levels doesn't matter blabla, it takes ages to level!"

Also people:
"Level squish!? HERESY! MAH LEVELS!"

Look on Blizzard's main website, it's confirmed now. https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/ne...hadowlands-now

Do not want.
