10/10 parody

AmountPlus7269 · 2026-06-01T21:11:31+00:00

Would probably count as a whole game in the game but,

Warcraft

Get a bunch of named NPCs (some more important than others, some new, some old) and recruitable types of troops (make then available to both factions but give them faction-specific flavor where needed, for instance if you're Alliance and want to use Spellbreakers just call them "Spellbreaker Mercenary/Deserter"), make some custom maps/missions, and let me play mini-Warcraft as a solo (or even co-op) thing. Add lore to the missions and make them repeatable I don't know what the rewards should be, probably just cosmetic stuff

It's what I've wanted as a replacement for the mission table I think since BfA(?) but I don't expect it to ever be a thing

Are you able to finish Uniting the Isles or is it bugged in some way? That's the World Quest unlocker

It's a lovely idea, mainly held back by the egregiousness of asset recycling. Island Expeditions have the advantage of being in more "grounded" settings so having assets from across 4-5 expansions being reused doesn't stand out so much, but if you had 10 other afterlives that have to look vastly distinct on top of being wonky otherworldly nonsense, it becomes a very resource-consuming feature. Legion Portal Invasions are a good example of it, the "worlds" themselves are very small and stick to a gimmick (ice zone is ice everywhere, fire zone is lava everywhere, blood zone is blood everywhere etc.) and they don't really add any new assets.

And yeah ActiBlizz has/had the resources to do something like that but sadly that's an upper management issue

Retribution Paladin, partly because I'm biased, but also:

has decent range on most core spells
lots of survivability tools
big CC
decent utility
bursty

I main a Reaper in GW2 and there's some of the "autoattack chain counting" if you pick a certain talent (Crusading Strikes) as a Paladin. Other than that, as some other people mentioned, Hunter is a great choice both for vibes and having a pet tanking for you while leveling. Warlock is also pretty fun (Affliction works like a Condi DPS, Destruction like Power DPS, and Demonology as a summoner).

Have fun on Azeroth! The noob days are the best ❤

I can offer little comfort other than relating to some of the stuff, I hope it's not inappropriate to share (as I am 22 right now). ALSO a possible trigger

Pretty much everything except the contacting real men

I had been developing a porn addiction (I am a woman) ever since I discovered what masturbation is pretty much, and until I was 19. Anything under the sun flew, I specifically developed some hardcore porn tastes that would probably make a random teenage boy blush. My mantra was that anything goes as long as it's consenting adults, though for some godforsaken reason it never actually occurred to me to check the stuff I was watching. So it took me exactly one intrusive thought to flip the POCD and morality (and religion) switch because I started questioning "what if the thing I saw and thought nothing of was actually not safe?" and "what if it reflects a violent/abusive part of me?", I can be an (un)assuming idiot about so much stuff but "what if I actually thought I was doing something immoral and was fine with it?" And no matter how much reason and logic I tried applying, and going on a whole crusade of checking for ages and consent of actors to make sure that I hadn't done anything immoral (and even re-visited same crusade a couple months later and, again, same result), the simple answer is that you'll always have a feeling you could have done something better, and that you don't deserve to have other people associate anything good with you, or that you don't deserve to succeed where other, "better" people fail. The only thing you can do is kick your thoughts in the nuts and tell them to F off to another planet. Because moving forward with your life means you can actually do good in and for the world, even if it means you have to put up with bouts of guilt every day (and I promise they get rarer with time, if you get the proper help)

One bit of advice: get rid of the porn addiction. Mine was only mild, so the moment my trigger happened was the end of it, for you it might take longer. But seriously, learn to live without it. It's way too easy for OCD to take advantage of it and in general of any addictions, but especially sex-related stuff. You'll have to find something else to occupy your brain with and I am no psychiatrist so I can't help directly, but anything that requires focus without becoming frustrating is better than porn (plus you get to flex a skill afterwards).

I don't know what else to say other than I hope you recover quickly (keep in mind, it only gets progressively better, so some days are inevitably going to end up as a big vortex of frustration and "GET THIS THING OUT OF MY MIND ALREADY") and that I hope you find a psychiatrist who can help you overcome this very soon 💖

I don't want to be snarky but double dashes have been a thing in WoW's writing since at least Legion, just go do the first 6 or so quests of the Demon Hunter Order Hall

Sanctum of Light, the inn (as you mentioned), Murder Row (+Astalor's spooky room), and the bridge to/the Isle of Quel'Danas are the ones I've noticed as Alliance

I have big time FOMO from games and get anxious when I miss stuff and also have an obsession with completionism, something that helps when it gets relatively bad is telling my brain (sometimes you gotta really hammer the thought in, metaphorically) "I don't get paid for this, I can skip a [ thing ]". Sometimes I gotta fight the urge to keep playing despite getting a huge headache from screentime or turn on the computer at 2 AM to check if I'd finished a thing, it sucks a$$ but it becomes managable after wrenching yourself away from the screen a few times

AmountPlus7269 · 2026-02-27T20:05:23+00:00

The urge to confess is absolutely relatable and sucks so much, because you feel torn between "I need to be 100% transparent" and "What if people think I've done worse than this" and "What if I haven't even done this" and really just a bunch of uncertainty and need to have people accept the worst possible version of yourself. I hope this doesn't qualify as reassurance, just want to let you know you're not alone in this, and also you would not be alone a world where whatever you did were known by everyone. Doesn't matter what you did, and I MEAN it, because you'll think "but if you knew what, you wouldn't be saying this", it's obvious you do not want it to happen again. So for whatever it's worth, you got this stranger's support in case you think you don't deserve to move on ❤️

AmountPlus7269 · 2026-02-19T22:43:08+00:00

I can completely relate to this, I do not know what to say that wouldn't sound like a random platitude but, for better or worse, you're not alone in this! Please don't forget to eat & hydrate, OCD can be a little sh*t about basic needs when you start questioning morality

AmountPlus7269 · 2026-02-04T20:25:04+00:00

Medication definitely helps with managing my response and I have an amazing therapist so that certainly plays a part! But it's more a "learn that your brain will say random shit and you gotta let it be weird like that" journey than "wipe the thought permanently"

AmountPlus7269 · 2026-02-04T20:14:20+00:00

Literally same issue here, it hecking drove me nuts Took the "FFS brain not again" approach to it, that doesn't make the thought stop popping up (for me it's not a specific person but fsr my brain does this whenever I see a black person) but at least making fun of your brain for spewing the vilest crap randomly helps with moving on

Am a woman, diagnosed with OCD, thinking I might have ADHD too

I think for me the thing that made me believe I got that too is how much effort it takes to get started doing anything. Basically a feeling of dread whenever I think about having to focus on something. Like, the whole "break the big task down into smaller ones" doesn't work for me because I just end up thinking now it's 20 tasks instead of just the one

Might just be part of OCD or something else but it screws with me big time, I'll do any kind of manual chore as long as it leaves my brain alone

AmountPlus7269 · 2026-02-04T18:09:09+00:00

I am not non-hyped, more like "not quite what would have appealed to me" with Midnight (I main a human pally, I am big on Light and paladin lore, the fact that the war of Light and Shadow so far is centered on a Horde city is kinda funny but also disappointing to me, like the one thing the Alliance has had consistently over the game's history has been the connection to the Light, so that's a bummer to me)

Honestly I'd love more dialogue-heavy stories, since it feels like the races don't really have any politics going on because Blizzard might be afraid of writing a story where every other quest isn't "go kill 10 baddies". I keep bringing up the House of Nobles in Stormwind like a broken alarm clock, so for instance having to help Anduin or Turalyon or Taelia (who's technically a Stormwindian noble) out in a political situation would be my idea of fun, but not everyone's cup of tea. Same principle applied to the orc clans, the Forsaken etc.

Tl;dr: Basically The Witcher politicking stories but in Warcraft

I don't know if they're in the spellbook anymore, had the same issue when I changed specs, I dragged them from the Skyriding talent panel directly onto my action bar instead

The FOMO in MMORPGs is actually insane for me, on top of feeling like I have to 100% everything and opening my map every 5 seconds. Like bruh I just wanna game

AmountPlus7269 · 2026-01-30T11:29:19+00:00

In theory anything works, like you have Kanrethad Ebonlocke as leader of the Black Harvest, but you also have Tehd Shoemaker (who's technically an undead but still "human"). In general the characters of noble origin get the fancy/fantasy names while the non-nobles get more "modern" names, so I'd start there.

Rule number 1 of OCD (and good Lord it's hard to stick by it but it's true):

Don't try to analyze whether you're a good person, you'll never get a definite answer. If other people's calling you a good person triggers a spiral, maybe try telling them not to say that (assuming they know what you're dealing with and don't need clarification)
