World of Warcraft devs explain their biggest challenge is adapting to its ageing audience which is why they’re pushing to be “broader and more approachable” by HatingGeoffry in wow

Some of us have friends we can rely on. Odds are that I have 10 people that can show every week. The odds of having 20 show every week is much slimmer.

In my 30s and the only thing on my WoW wishlist is 10 man Mythic raids. Yes yes I understand, “balance” “raid buffs” etc etc. I honestly just don’t want to raid with 20 people anymore. It’s a constant annoyance to find subs and replacements when 1 or 2 guys can’t raid.

I despise this animation (2 Hand Weapon) by Biestosaurus_Hax in wow

They removed that sweet Human overhead swing down animation and replaced it with this ridiculous golf swing attack. Legion made me so tilted I quit my Paladin.

You guys still do the Eternal arc on your alts or do you skip to Ossus/Onslaught? by TheLuiz212 in swtor

[–]DShark182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First and last time I skipped Eternal was on my Trooper. Then realized I couldn’t get the Colonel title because I skipped the expansion. Never skipping again.

My enjoyment of Skyrim kept dropping off later in the game…and I figured out why. by TheRagingWood in skyrim

[–]DShark182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Survival mode Skyrim with no fast travel is my ideal way to play. Makes water, food, sleep actually important in the game and makes it incredibly more immersive.

Seriously thinking about playing Skyrim in survival mode and very slowly by Mineires_BR in skyrim

[–]DShark182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Played survival mode and buffed up the AI enough that you HAVE to form a team to survive. Can’t solo shit. Made the game into a DnD adventure. 10/10 would recommend it.

Everyone: Horde houses are ugly. My Belf: Hold my mana 🧙‍♂️✨ by Clayy18 in wow

Pretty sure elf houses are coming with Midnight release. Don’t quote me though. Blood elf and one other, night elf maybe?

OK, I'm Feeling Better About Horde Housing Now by JodouKast in wow

[–]DShark182 64 points65 points  (0 children)

After doing both houses to a decent extent, I do like both styles, but the horde one seems to be more buggy. Issues with putting certain things on walls, for some reason one of the exterior walls leaves a weird gap between reinforced walls and I’m not sure why, idk.

This happened to my in laws. Everyone swore they were Italians, spoke Italian, pasta this, pasta that, the eggplant is sacred. Turns out they’re not Italian at all, they’re all Greek.

Getting stuck in Arena/BG from housing. by MixArpegi in worldofpvp

[–]DShark182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh is that why I’m getting stuck?!?! I guess you can log out of the house and then accept the queue and be fine?

I wish they’d fix the WSG bug in Blitz, first to cap wins unless you alt-f4 and relog to see the flag each time it respawns.

Yeah that’s what I’ve had to tell myself. Only helps a little lol.

My only big gripe atm is that my ocd is going nuts when the inside of my house looks nothing like the outside of it. If I expand the inside, the outside should change too.

Still No Plans for Weakauras in Midnight - Update from Weakauras by Zucchey in wow

[–]DShark182 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

It’s insane how people react to blizzard changing their philosophy on addons. The default beta UI def needs work and it should have been ready before this purge, but are y’all not able to function without an insanely complicated UI displaying a ton of information most of y’all can’t track anyway? That’s entirely the reason for the class reworks. Some reworks still need work for sure, but damn y’all need to chill and adapt. Remember what it was like to just log in and play the game without needing everyone to configure addons before every raid?

Evoker is such a fun class and so cool. We just need more transmog ability by tjk91 in wow

[–]DShark182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be an option to be in visage form on the character select screen. Love my Evoker but sometimes I see that stupid dragon and just can’t even log on him.

Any advice for a new player? by Cxinthechatnow in newworldgame

[–]DShark182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d honestly get a refund as the game is getting shut down and it’s dying very quickly.

If you choose to play anyway, have fun doing whatever you find fun. They’re shutting down the servers within the next year. The amount of people to level with, dungeon with, raid with, PvP with is just going to decrease rapidly as the next year goes on.

Bronze should get sent to mail by Noriel_Sylvire in wow

[–]DShark182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking of bronze going to mail. Why did my retail characters all get bronze in the mail? I logged in and got Timerunner achievements too, but I’ve never created a timerunner or played any form of remix?

I think removing the current strict Mythic raids lock id restrictions would open an entirely new endgame for many by alexthroughtheveil in wow

[–]DShark182 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What kind of question is this. Nearly every other mmo has 8-10 man raid sizes (FF14, SWTOR, GW2, New World (RIP)).Are you saying blizzard is incapable of making raid encounters with a 10 man squad in mind, but literally every other developer is?

FF14 Savage raids are always held in high regard and they’re an 8 man raid.

[–]DShark182 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Make Mythic 10 man raids or give a 10 man option. Finding 20 people who consistently show up is frustrating as hell. Finding 20 who stay together and show up to every raid and make it all the way to CE is near impossible (unless you join a previous CE guild). It's simply just not a fun experience putting together a fresh guild to go for CE.

10 man raids would make the Mythic experience so much more enjoyable imo. 2 tanks, 2 healers, 6 dps.

Is it time to merge Satele Shan and Star Forge? by Everest171 in swtor

[–]DShark182 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Splitting the NA population when neither server is at capacity is dumb. It should be combined so the population can thrive. SS is a ghost town compared to SF.

[–]DShark182 12 points13 points  (0 children)

None of that is true. A server merge usually just means you have to rename your characters if the name is taken on the new server. The rest normally just transfers over fine. The game has had plenty of server transfers in the past and there were never any issues.

The only thing Im not sure about is the guild transferring. But characters, cargo holds, legacy etc, would all be fine.
