@Khorgnir The entire industry is built on this really, but even then Blizzard somehow managed to be even worse with it.
Similar jobs outside of the game industry can pay like double the salary for half the actual work.

I should clarify: this isn’t a defense of either company, it’s just something I don’t see mentioned a lot and probably shouldn’t be forgotten.

Blizzard was built on this tactic, fwiw.

“We hired fans because fans would work for less” Former Bungie legal exec claims the studio “took advantage” of dedicated fans of the game

@TheRedShirtGuy It's also interesting that class would be considered for The Last Titan. Might be a clue as to what might be going on in that xpac.
Are we killing the Titans or helping them? Did we get access to Sargeras' power with his approval? It's an interesting concept.
English
Also, while completely out of the left-field, Titankiller sounds incredibly metal:
"Titankillers combine the sword fragments of Taeshalach and Gorribal to use the powers of Gorshalach and connect to the cosmic powers of the titans, to destroy any threat to Azeroth."

"Through their understanding of machines. tinkers can create inventions (custom made skills/spells), control Mech-Suits and deploy mechanical constructs to create an advantage in combat." Please don't just be a random survey thing, that sounds awesome! mmo-champion.com/threads/263072…

@TheRedShirtGuy Or at the very least give us a toy like the one that replaces the spirit healers with valkyr.
English
Trolls and Zamdalari trolls should have a racial ability that replaces all spirit healers with Bwomsamdi instead of him just being on Zandalar.

A bunch of NPCs got added/updated for the intro quest for Siren Isle in 11.0.7, including not one but *two* mentions of Shango!!!
Really love seeing Darkspear mention him, totally not biased due to my shaman lol
English
@TheRedShirtGuy It might not be the actual release of the expansion, but rather the prepatch.
That said, since we're unlikely to get a 11.3, it lines up well with a general Midnight launch too.
English
WoWhead makes a really good point here: Why show player housing as coming in Midnight in the trailer if it's coming out in 2025 and Midnight is coming out in 2026... unless Midnight (or more realistically its pre-patch) IS coming in 2025.

Have these people met Brann?

"Delves aren't fair because you can just restart it with no punishment and no timer, if we don't time, we get less ilvl gear, and our next key devalues"
Sounds like mythic plus should remove both the timer punishment and the key devaluing

@Khorgnir We should all just agree to blame the pedos. They shouldn't have had a symbol in the first place.
English
@GuardianPigeon I DIDNT THINK THEYD EVEN SEE IT. AND IF THEY DID I THOUGHT MAYBE THEYD JUST CHANGE IT FROM A TRIANGLE IM SORRY
English
This morning I made an offhanded observation while I was on the toilet and accidentally ruined the reveal schedule for player housing
Ian Bates 💙@TheRedShirtGuy
I just realized: there’s a non-zero chance they confirmed the rune is actually layer housing because @Khorgnir realized it unintentionally looked like a pedophile symbol so they had to change it. Otherwise why keep it a mystery for only one and a half days?
English
@Khorgnir It feels like this entire write up was meant to shut up everyone on Twitter.

@Wowhead @TaliesinEvitel @WatcherDev Player housing shouldn't be a thing, it's gonna make that xpac die like it did WoD when they tried and failed and had to cut half the xpac because of it.
English
@Portergauge He did make a big deal about wanting an escape pod like Mekkatorque, so fingers crossed he gets it.
He's better as a reoccurring villain.
English
Not gonna count out him surviving yet but... hope is waning sadly lol

One thing I'm definitely worried about for the upcoming goblin content is how they handle Gallywix. BfA did *so* much damage to his character through sheer flanderization, and it'll be such a shame if they cement that by making him into a generic villain that we kill in a raid.
English
@WarcraftDevs I feel the need to just put this out there since I see a lot of people talking about another remix event in the future.
Please increase the character cap some more. Some of us (me) went a little overboard during MoP remix and would hate to miss out on a new one.
English
@that_kind_oforc Putting him next to Jaina wearing the exact same color is rough.

@Khorgnir The base case scenario for furniture and stuff would be a profession. Make woodworking it's own thing and let them cut down trees for materials like in WoD.
Obv still get stuff from raids/pvp and such, but housing should be an evergreen casual feature and a profession helps that
English
To put it more clearly maybe:
Housing deco rewards that come from raids, BGs, and dungeons? YES. We should be able to earn and mount raid boss heads on our walls. That’s great.
Making all furniture cost a currency you can get 10/day max, 2 from 5 different activities? No.
English
Another thing I’m gonna preemptively say about housing, not as a criticism but just to voice this sentiment and hopefully encourage others to: do not make housing a means to funnel us into content you WANT us to do. Housing SHOULD BE the content. Not a means to strongarm players.
English
@Khorgnir Going to min max speed and drifting until driving is nigh impossible but fast as hell.
I hope they can also somehow extend the functionality to the motorcycle mounts.
English
They figured out we like to go NYOOM and expanded on it. Truly this is the second golden era of Warcraft 🙏🏻

Patch 11.1 contains D.R.I.V.E., a brand new locomotion style with a new very fast ground mount with customizable stats -- acceleration, grip, drift and top speed! #WarWithin #Warcraft wowhead.com/news/d-r-i-v-e…

A small criticism of Undermined. I don't like the "Liberation of Undermine" raid name, it's too wordy and generic. It's about infiltrating Gallywix's casino resort/evil villain base the Gallagio so why not just call it The Gallagio?
English
@arcanistsaphras I'd like to be able to put our house into an instanced version of anywhere, but so long as the major factions areas are covered id be happy.
I'm a troll main so I'd personally like the Zandalari houses, or new and improved classic troll ones.
English
Alright girlies, let's have a little chit-chat:
-Where do we want our player houses to be in WoW?
-And, what aesthetic do we want to have for our house?
English
Unironically the thing that has me most excited for 11.1 is the fact that they touched on goblin culture being more than the jokes.
That alone is huge to me and signals good things for the future. If they stick the landing with this, I'll be excited for Amani come Midnight.
