I’m not saying there aren’t bad actors within communities, but devs shouldn’t have a “our way or the highway” mentality, you’re gonna push potential customers away or make veteran players leave (which many have). No studio is perfect, but there should be dialogue!

My savage Orc Fury Warrior in his bad-ass mog, dual-wielding his 2 bad-ass GIANT axes... and his literal rotation was Charge... and by the time I'd appear at the enemy I was targeting, not only they would be dead, but everything within 10 yards too... by a random Orbital Strike... And then, the _pièce de résistance._ The _cherry on top_ of it all? My fucking magical girl lovu-lovu-beamu. Stood in the middle of a pack of enemies... firing a fucking laser beam from his necklace. I'm not an RPer, so things like that normally don't bug me... but you've gotta laugh haven't you? But... I can't deny it didn't feel damn good at the time. Sure, being hardcore it made it a mundane grind of levelling up your cloak and staying on top of BiS essences and corruption rolls, but, if you look at anyone else remotely more casual, they're getting random items that blow shit up at the end of an expansion where it's like "fuck it... we might as well go nuts before the next expansion comes and strips us of our power, again." It's not what I want from WoW, put it that way... but, if it gets to that stage in Shadowlands and starts mimicking BfA where I lost interest from the start all the way up until the Mechagon patch, I'll be well glad for something _like_ (but not) corruptions.

Titanforging was introduced in 2012 tho, not a bfa system. And people only hated on corruptions or azerite armor because they never got lucky. I got all my BiS shit pretty early in each tier (even my Getikku sword from +15) so i was kinda happy most of the expansion. Being one of the strongest damage classes as a warrior was great aswell. Specially in cleave fights, azerite armor gave you such a huge boost with 3 x Cold Steel Hot Blood. I enjoyed bfa and i play wow since 2005

@@capitaldcolon1795 I'm going to have to disagree with you on azerite. Essentially, since all the rings are randomly assigned each time, you'd have to reroll so many times that you're never going to get the actually optimal selection on every item unless you're very lucky. Now, WoW has always been luck based, but in the past there were lots of ways to get BiS gear quickly without relying on RNG. Even in Classic you can just grind money and buy some great gear. This loot system was terrible and I'm glad they realized it.

You forgot one of the biggest complaints with Azerite armour, having to pay to change the traits when switching specs.

It became less of an issue as the expansion went on and you had more gear but it was still really annoying.

When you're in a raid where half the DPS are hunters, you tended tend to get screwed over because "everything" mail related was hunter gear. Except the spellcasting stuff and even then some them swiped it. That's not including the guilds that had the complicated systems to determine who got what. So yes, I love personal loot.

If you wanted to play as a solo player, you won't enter a guild, that's not where you belong. You were gaining "fame" in the guild, and that how things were most of the time offered. You work well, you get rewards if you participate in big events like raids. Obviously, main healers and tanks were first for every loots, because they are the most importants. But then, most of the time, it was about how much you worked for the guild. Except main grinding guild that were fighting for world first, others guild were kinda chill and friendly, everyone had their chances, you just needed to help others. Main guild were obviously giving gear to the class that were doing most damages, to further boost their damages. Other were giving gears to good players, so they would help the guild more, and spread the word that the guild was cool.

Hey Hiru, I enjoy your content. I was thinking an interesting series for you to do would be a history of the lore of each dungeon in the game. A neat way to do it would be to feature a run though of the dungeon, while explaining why each boss is there and the lore behind them. I'm sure there are alot of folks who don't know why you need to defeat the defias brotherhood, or why they have an ogre working with them? Why do we fight all those Dark Iron dwarves when they are part of the alliance? What is the deal with the Occulus? I know you touch on some of these questions in different videos, but it would be fun to know why each boss is in a dungeon, not just the end bosses.

About the whole legendary thing: Yeah, you said it. They were extremely rare and almost no one had them. Which is also not the right way.

That was the biggest problem, though. You felt encouraged to play PvP because you got a leg up over people that play PvP as their main focus. The people that actually primarily wanted to play PvP got *discouraged* from playing because they were forced to slog through a bunch of PvE content they never liked... While you got a free pass because you were already doing that anyways. (And presumably enjoyed it, which is fine.) Previously when there was resil or pvp power, *everyone* started on ground 0 and had to work their way up for every new character. The only way to get better at PvP was to... Play PvP. The PvE players that felt "discouraged" by that system weren't really, because *everyone* had to go through the same thing, including PvP players. It was just they didn't want to put in the work to get better that everyone else had to do. (Not necessarily speaking about you specifically.) I don't see how anyone can call it fair that players that apparently didn't even really like the PvP aspect of the game got priority and special catering over the people that actually did like it and play it. Imagine if you were forced to do lots of PvP content to be competent in PvE... Sounds unfair, right? So why was it fair the other way around?

The system would have been perfect if you were able to disenchant 1 to 2 in order to craft the one you want.

The biggest problem with Azerite armor as somebody who dropped BFA early on was, as a Ret main my best Azerite trait was a trait that increased Avenging Wrath duration. Like this trait was so good it was worth sacrificing like 20-30 ilvls just to have a piece with this trait because early on Ret was pretty much only a usable spec in Avenging Wrath. Massive problem being that the helmet version with this trait only dropped from the final boss of Freehold and trying to get this helmet with a decent ilvl on it was probably one of the worst experiences of my life since when you completed a m+ dungeon you'd have a CHANCE to even get a piece of gear then not only that it was of EVERY piece of gear that dropped from that dungeon and BFA added a TON of gear to the game, I think Freehold dropped like 15-20 items or something for Ret in a 4 boss dungeon. Then from the weekly chest it would grab a piece from EVERY dungeon in the game that dropped. There was also a massive issue with weapon acquisition in BFA, I remember Horde got the first weapon world quest and people actually rerolled from Alliance to Horde just for this weapon. Early BFA was an absolute joke of an expansion if you cared even a tiny bit about gear hearing all these lies Blizzard was spewing about how Azerite is going to replace tier sets and Legiondaries and the Artifact Weapon trees themselves passives and gold traits and then 99% of the traits in the game were passive traits that had a chance to do X damage or a chance to increase X secondary stat. There was also the GCD change that put everything on a GCD and dear god I'm sure you remember but if you actually played Legion on a character then tried levelling that character through BFA you actively and noticeably got weaker every time you dinged, it was an absolute joke. Then on top of all of this BfA introduced an even more extreme version of ilvl mob scaling in the open world so mobs would scale as you got higher ilvl. Even on fully geared Shadowlands characters BfA mobs aren't that much weaker than Shadowlands mobs despite being 10 levels lower, that's how crazy the BfA ilvl scaling is. So in summary you were lied to about gear, your class was clunky and always on GCD, most classes were doing like 60-70% of their total damage as auto white hits, your character got actively weaker as you leveled up and even if you managed to get gear you never actually felt it because everything still had the same time to kill.

That being said I still don't understand why flying is not unlocked for everyone in a given expansion after the next one have droped.

He aslo used an axe from the second boss in the nyalotha raid, which formed a bubble, and exploded causing damage based on your armor. He used it on his tanking pally, and when the bubble went off it would nearly kill other players hostile to him.

Such as in games like guild wars 2 where you choose which stats template you want to use and other customizable pieces. And Lost ark let’s you put a set amount of points into what stats you wanna max out. I think these are way more competitive ideas but at least making pvp gearing easier or having a low disparity of gear has worked fine in DF.

@10 Mission tables ruined the ingame economy until today. Later they inserted high gold quests in Legions and now its 2k per daily calling(?Berufung) quests, but still not so profitable as before. I think they found an ok balance in Shadowlands to grind gold. @9 weapon skills: It wasnt that bad and it actually had a roleplay feeling. Compared to today you had to spend several weeks to get max level and also you only had to grind it once. Its not that I miss it, but I also wouldnt mind if this would still exist. @8 pathfinder: this wouldnt even be on this list, if they would just make it buyable when a new addon launches. I found it way worse in the earlier addons, where you had to buy very expensive flying for every alt char. 800 gold in Vanilla and 5000 Gold in BC were really a lot. Some of my chars only had it in the end of WOTL. @7 pvp: dunno, dont play it anymore @6 personal loot: Im a casual since pandaria, so I way prefer this system. I hated Cata, where better equipped friends rolled for other friends gear, so that you had basically a 1:15 chance to get an item instead of a 1:4 chance. Some also just rolled need and sold it. Pinacle of the worst considering loot. Glad personal loot was invented. @5 titan forged. only really affects high level myth players, who want to max out everything. And as you said, its 1% of the WoW players. So imo I actually miss this system. The only good part removing it is, that a high end player doesnt feel forced to grind days of raid instances, just for a tiny chance, even on LFR etc. @4 Warfront: the problem was, #a) that it was against NPCs and not another BG against players with advanced tactics and #b) they had to simplify it. Theoretically it was on a complexity level of Star Craft or Warcraft 3 etc, but how will you manage this will 40 random players? No way this will work. So they kept it simple, but that made it boring. @3 Island: Removing the time factor and implementing other goals would have been interesting. Wasted opportunity. Im casual, so I ddnt care about maxing out azerith, so in the end I never made many runs. @2 everything said already by you. The randomization made it unpleasent. Again, Im just a casual and I kind of got lucky with the heal pants for my hunter I liked, but ofc that wasnt a max dps item. For me, the 1000 ilvl and its stats were enough. @1.5 visions: actually I like kind of stuff like proving grounds and mage tower. Its the only challenging content for me, because I dont raid anymore and I dont visit high key instances. I found out about too late of it, still managed to get the title, but I would liked to have equiped other chars too. BUt I guess you meant something else. LFR: My problem with the current LFR is its rewards. Its just to low. You can get ilvl 197 with just campaign quests and anima grinding. LFR gives 187. It just doesnt make sense Blizzard... Corruption: too complex and too OP. Basically meant your gear does your damage output, not you handling the skills. @1 azerit gear: was too complex again, but at the same time couldnt care less as a casual. My goal was to get the absorb shield. :D was fun to tank the elite worldquest bosses as a mage.

IMO BC and WotLK had the best iteration of flight, where you had to pay a somewhat expensive fee at max level to fly. BUT, there were actual perks to flying. Places you couldn't reach and quests/reps you couldn't access without flying (think the Netherstorm and Ulduar dungeons/raid, as well as the Netherwing and Skettis content), entire zones that could hardly work without flying (Storm Peaks and Icecrown). The usual complaint that flying makes certain parts of the game too easy and convenient makes sense, yes, but that argument is very much mitigated when flying is actually integrated into the game experience, rather than being there just for convenience's sake, as it's been after LK. Pathfinder is a bit of a lazy compromise, IMO. It is as if Blizz were saying "we're too lazy to design content tailored for flight, but since you folks still want to be able to fly and do stuff, here's some time-gating for ya. Enjoy your grinds!"

@@DisastrousIntentionally "Old survival was literally Marksman but with Explosive Shot." Only to clueless non-Hunters who thought they were all the same because "hurr ranged weapon". We don't declare that Arms is literally Fury with Colossus Smash because both of those specs have some thematic overlap. So try to refrain from declaring similarly stupid nonsense about Hunters. Survival was significantly different from Marksmanship in both theme and gameplay. "Blizzard failed for years to give that spec a genuine identity that felt different from the other Hunter specs." See above. There was no failure. That's revisionist history to dishonestly try to make melee Survival look better. Ranged Survival was not only fine, it was a successful spec that appealed to a lot of people and provided a nice alternative to the other Hunter specs. This is why it wasn't being frantically changed all the time like the current melee SV; it kept the same basic identity and gameplay for 4 expansions. That would simply not have been the case if Blizzard was desperately trying to find an identity like morons on the online discussions like to portray it. If you want to see a Hunter spec without a genuine identity, look to the current melee Survival which is a clumsy combination of several different identities because Blizzard has no clue what they're doing with the spec anymore and are largely just playing damage control due to the disasterous initial melee rework. "It was only ever popular when numbers put it above the other two specs, anytime that wasn't the case it was barely played. Played more than modern survival probably but still barely played. " It was actually routinely a popular spec even when it wasn't the best, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here and say you're just clueless and unaware rather than outright lying. In Siege of Orgrimmar the spec was actually below BM yet still saw more play. But just look to Blackrock Foundry. That was a tier where SV was more significantly behind BM. In the last 2 weeks of that tier, Survival got 7.6k parses to BM's 42.2k. A lot less, for sure, but still more than nothing. Now look to the current tier, Castle Nathria. Survival has about 500 parses for the ENTIRE TIER so far. That's less than BM gets on average per DAY and they do more or less the same damage. Using play rates and representation as an argument against ranged Survival is so hilariously hypocritical and out of touch it's not funny. Actually, it kind of is funny that people can be this delusional. P.S. In Highmaul, just before Blackrock Foundry, Survival was literally the most played spec in the entire game by a massive margin. And that wasn't the first time. So you can kindly cut the bullshit about it being "barely played", thank you. The only tier where ranged SV was barely played, since it was recognisably ranged Survival with Explosive Shot, that is, was Hellfire Citadel in patch 6.2, and that was primarily because they mysteriously flat out removed a core mechanic that made the spec work, making it struggle to compete with tanks for damage. I wonder why they would do that just a month before announcing it would be replaced with a melee spec... hmmmmmm.... "Let's not pretend Survival was some amazing spec before the changes, it was always the spec that had no real identity outside of PvP." I'm not the one pretending here. You're the one making shit up as you go along to desperately try to make melee Survival look better. Ranged Survival had a great identity as the utilitarian that used exotic munitions and tools to gain an edge in the fight. This was distinct to both BM and MM and meaningfully and sensibly built off the base class. Survival right now nonsensically tries to build an identity by taking AWAY the most core part of the base class. It's the only spec in the entire game that tries to build off a weakness, and as such most people want nothing to do with it because it essentially defeats the entire purpose of being a Hunter. Blizzard also can't decide what to do with it so it has 3 different identities competing for prominence in the baseline toolkit; the stock-standard melee Skirmisher like a Warrior (Raptor Strike, Carve), the utilitarian toolkit that would better fit ranged Survival anyway (Wildfire Bomb, Serpent Sting), and the BM Hunter ripoffs (Kill Command, Coordinated Assault). Speaking of which... "At least modern Survival tries to be it's own spec, Blizzard just needs to put some genuine time into it." Oh, really? Because last I checked they literally rebuilt the spec from the ground up twice and what they arrived on was a spec that leans heavily on the identity of Beast Mastery to the point where it straight up copies BM abilities with some adjustments. They at least bothered to rename Bestial Wrath to Coordinated Assault when they copied it over, unlike Kill Command. Oh, and they straight up stole Spirit Bond and made it the mastery; you know, the iconic part of BM that was there from the literal beginning. I don't recall ranged Survival copying Aimed Shot, Chimera Shot, and Careful Aim over; it had its own toolkit yet the fact that they both used a ranged weapon was enough for you to declare "Old survival was literally Marksman but with Explosive Shot". So are you going to admit to being totally full of shit or what?

@@DisastrousIntentionally I'm not the one who thinks the Hunter specs were the same because they both used bows. I'm not the one who thinks a spec that was routinely one of the game's more popular specs, and even at times the most popular in the entire the game, was "barely played" unless it was overpowered. I'm not the one who thinks a spec that sees less parses in a month than another Hunter spec sees in a single day is an improvement. I'm not the one who thinks a spec that rips off half the toolkit from another spec is one that is forging its own identity. You're the one that's delusional, and I have no doubt in my mind that you do not and have not played a Hunter and you're in fact talking out your ass.

I absolutely hated corruptions back then. I hated how my characters could get corruption long before they'd even be at the right item level to be able to get the cloak without being stomped on by the quest mobs, I hated the ugly purple shit corruption levels added to my character and ruining all those carefully-made transmog sets. I hated having to grind up that stupid cloak on every alt in order to even be able to equip the corrupted items without N'Zoth splurging his purple jizz all over my character.

Im a World 200 raider. Currently at 7/10 mythic in Nathria. I didnt give a shit about titanforging in bfa. If i got a titanforge, nice. But i didnt try hard for it. And most of my guildies thought the same way. Nobodies going to spam +15 keys to get a 455 titanforging with a socket. You either got it, or you dont. So i dont know where these players are that youre talking about. Who would go crazy about a 445 item, just because it didnt titanforge into 455? I dont know players like this and i would say that i play on a high level.

They was upset because the idea had so much promise but they squandered it. It was so boring I gave up halfway through farming the Horde Plate set for my warrior which I really wanted. Island Expeditions were wastes too. A dozen or so Islands that actually encouraged exploration with hidden areas and secrets would have been amazing. But, no..... just mindlessly farm pulling and clearing trash mobs as fast as possible.

I definitely disagree about master loot. Even for casual guild runs, so many loot drops where issues with personal loot don't let you trade. Or it's a tiny ilvl upgrade for you, but a huge upgrade for someone else. It's fun to trade loot with friends? They definitely need to make a system which allows you to just trade freely between your guild or something.

It was nice to be able to earn them from lots of sources so it wasn't gating the best stuff behind only the most elite content, yeah. Problem was the totally random aspect of it. Being able to target the specific abilities like we can in Shadowlands means you have to do certain content for certain powers, which isn't perfect, but targetable rewards are always better than super RNG hoops you have to jump through and just might wind up with moderately defensive legendary powers or niche PvP-themed capabilities when there's one out there that makes a huge difference in your DPS.

keep in mind though, Thunderforging and Warforging ONLY had 1 level (around 3-5 ilvl depending on the slot (this was standardized to +5 once WoD came out)). And it wasn't a huge jump in power (this was still pre-squish so 3-5 ilvl wasn't that big a deal by MoP standards). And that was the ONLY randomness on the item (random socket and random bonus stats didn't come till WoD). And it was rare enough that you didn't feel too entitled to get it, so actually getting one did feel good. (I only got 2 thunderforged and 1 warforged items the entirety of ToT and SoO, despite farming enough currency to max upgrade all my up-gradable gear) Titanforging could get MASSIVE swings in ilvl, upwards of 20-25 or higher at some periods. Which was further compounded BY the addition of random socket and random tertiary stats. Which could make your item complete and utter trash compared to what it could've been. And because Titanforging rolls so many times, you titan forged a lot more often but would typically only get something in the low to mid-range rolls, which made it feel less special and started to feel more entitled to. Especially since the power gap was so large.
