hey guys do you wana keep enjoying the game? dont look at any of the 50 different sub reddits or blizzard forums lol
Won't watch evil warlock content, sry sir.
I'm pretty sure people don't lose the Darkshore escort due to layering, they changed the quest and you only have to escort him to the end of Darkshore now.
Once you get hellfire destruction warlock has been insane for me in dungeons as long as your tank can actually keep threat
Alright bro no one cares
Comments about the aoe cleave farms not being meta in forever hurts so much looking back 😂😂
as for your nitpicking : nobody gives a damn how the character faces look ingame because you barely even see them. the only thing you notice is the armors anyways.
The zones are Horde dominated because most alliance players are anti social PVE cry babies while horde zug zug together. This is just vikings vs soft babies
I’m eager to give it the old college try. Im gonna download some of the lore and story add ons and really try to soak this new world up slowly.
Tbh it took several hours before even taking the time to learn about add ons. Ooo boy..
As far as my experience was forever, I’ve seen a few people on my friends list, but I haven’t really been in contact with that many people. Most of the people I know that have played the game seriously back when I was playing it. I have moved on a couple of them are back, but they’re just kind of doing their own thing.
Already hit 49 on my mage. It's been a great experience. The next year is going to be special
They should buff dungeons. I hate the idea that the WoW community needs to be treated like children. Forced to play how other people wnat them to play. If someone wants to dungeon spam, let them do it. Jesus. No one is forcing anyone to do it. Live and let live.
So far, I have been taking it super slow because as much as I love video games and wow in general, I just don’t have that kind of time anymore. I think I’m like 18 hours into the game and level 14 been doing some fishing and a few other odds and ends. I’m not in a real big rush, but it’s a little annoying hearing about everyone at such and such level.
I actually have an interesting question now.
I've never been part of those groups to camp Scarlet Monastery 50 billion times. I haven't played vanilla since vanilla. But for all the classic andies out there. Do people not socialize when they run scarlet monastery?
If the goal is to make people social, wouldn't people banding together to aoe farm make them social?
no no, you are right. Some parts of the game are freakishly dark and I cannot see what I am doing in them
Damn it, when your favorite OSRS Youtube starts making WoW videos (out of no where, amirite??) and now I'm watching and learning about a game I know nothing about.
when you showed torghast and the soul ashe i got actually angry
I already re-rolled from.alliance rp-pvp to horde pve.
When I found myself outnumbered in the Wetlands, spending more time arguing with Ally-side morons than finding groups to fight back, I quickly realized this will probably be the same as 2019.
It might say 55/45 but the zones defo don't feel that way. They're already a shit show.
I’m playing no addons this go round
i CANT SEE SHIT IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT….I'm old too brother….
Theyre slowly retail-ifying it
Let night elf be shaman nobody wants to play dorf, might help alliance population.
When they compared 1-30 leveling speed in the beta to og classic that was not a fair comparison as the beta leveling routes are no where near as efficiently mapped out as the classic ones. Once the routes become more optimized we will surely see that forever leveling is at least 25% faster.
CRAZY to see you as a lock. I am playing lock too, and yeah the leveling feels lackluster compared to the melee running around blasting everything in sight. Though i know i have it easier than mages XD
I've been playing WoW Forever WITHOUT ADD-ONS at all, which is honestly, a first for me. I keep hearing about quest add-ons which help you know where to go etc… and I am like… WHAT?! Was the little yellow arrow pointing where to go on your map not enough?! LMAO, they've done a great job with it now. I honestly haven't had a need for add-ons. I used to like one which sold my trash, but now, in game, they have that! I think Blizzard has done a great job on reducing any need for an addon. At least for me. And, like you, I like to figure things out.
Also, part of me doesn't want to say a thing to you about this, but… I played a variety of classes in Beta, and I honestly thought Warlocks were the most fun to play. Me and other Warlock players kept publically stating how HARD they were, along with a chuckle, as we don't want them nerfed. I feel they're at a comfortable spot, especially for more solo players, like myself. I love casters, and I also loved hunters, and I feel Warlocks give you the best of both worlds. A caster, with a pet = perfect. This is probably the first version where I am not maining my Paladin (boring now), or my Priest, which I always loved, but it feels worse, I can't shield other players to help them (which I love doing) unless they're in a group with me etc. And my other class I loved was my mage, but… can't let a player have fun because of gold farmers, so lets ruin the fun with that class for everyone!!! That leaves me with the Warlock… just waiting on the nerf on them.
I don't mind this game TOO MUCH, but… I have died many times due to mobs spawning right next to me while I was fighting another mob, or just as I got done, and this happens A LOT… TOO MUCH. One time I stopped to help another player who was fighting two mobs, and as we fought them THREE MORE SPAWNED RIGHT F*****G NEXT TO US!!! Anyhow, to say I am pissed about that b*llsh*t is an understatement. I cancelled my account which expires on Dec 12, and if some of that sh!t is not fixed, I won't pay for more game time. Period. The sudden spawns is the WORST I have EVER SEEN in t his game. I had a level 9 that died 3 times by that level… I NEVER had that happen even in 2005 Classic.
As for Dungeons reduced experience, that will KILL THEM!!! Who are you going to group with in order to complete your quests for them if EVERYONE HAS ALREADY COMPLETED THEIR quests and the experience it too damned low?! I NEVER farmed dungeons the entire time I played the game, but this will kill even those rare runs I used to enjoy.
If Olympus went pvp it would be 50/50 also theres no evidence of people using alts to throttle character selection thats just speculation and heresy.
is that FFX soundtrack?! 07:00
WHO'S buttered WHAT?!?!
Imagine you time travel back in time 20 years ago and meet your younger self and he asks what MMO's are like in 2026 and you're just like:
"Oh yeah no we're still just playing WoW"
"Oh… Like the newer version of WoW right?"
"Ehhhh sorta, but not really, it's basically the same thing you're playing right now with some slight changes"
If it gets to dark.. Fiddle with Shadow settings. Lowering it may help in a dark forest area 🙂
Why can't they just fill layers equally with alliance and horde per zone and then push excess horde onto layers with 0 alliance? If they had 0 people to PvP that might also be a deterrent to playing horde
I guess its beyond Blizzard to realise that one faction having pve racials and the other pvp racials is a bad outcome. MAYBE BUFF ALLIANCE RACIALS?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Hard concept!
Im not using any addons to help me quest. defeats the purpose imo
1:20 brother it was only smooth cause there was 400 layers LOL
well for the "free" mount yeah pally and lock along with everyone else who got the 2 for buying a few versions of wow forever
Im absolutely loving it. Im out of town for a week for work till friday and it kills me that i am only lvl 27 this far in!
I have been just playing without any addons and its been amazing.
The restedxp devs are sponsoring a lot of streamers. Which, as paid addons are a TOS violation it'd be nice if Blizz actually did something.
People dont understand, that there is a huge journey in preraid bis farming and character gearing too and its just more dopamine than doing stupid leveling quests.
the funny thing is, when you say some changes and qol is okay, nobody can talk shit lol.
I'm Alliance PvP, I'm not using restedxp but I am using Questie, but that doesn't give you a literal compass and instructions.
The layering issue only lasted for like 6 hours. Idk if i would call that major.
I'm jealous you got to play with so many others. I was there when the servers launched too, but they were virtually empty due to all the layering- at least that's how it was for me. I was on a "normal" server. I had been looking forward to playing with others and I think I only encountered like 5 people in all of Northshire at launch time 😂 It did get better a couple days later though when they fixed the layering issue.
23:30 i feel like this is the truest thing that we dont talk about somtimes it feels like the people who complain about wow all the time are professionally unemployed and playing for 12 hours a day and watch all the videos about new data mining buying ewsted xp guides ect ect
