@MurkaDurkah Just noticed you finally got released from the Shadow Ban from years ago. Sick.

Found my old copy of @pcgamer. This is like a time capsule of memories. I wonder how much has changed through the years.

@stillIRONE @UltimateNoticer @Breaking911 Just another day truly.

@Lutzalec @UltimateNoticer @Breaking911 So, like every other day? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Flash flooding inundates parts of The Woodlands, Texas, as heavy rainfall triggers dangerous high-water conditions.

@UltimateNoticer @Breaking911 Worst part is 45 was fine, the drivers on it, however, were not.

@Breaking911 My house is legit 30 seconds from that Papas BBQ lol

Warcraft has felt less and less like its own identity with each expansion since Shadowlands. For all of the problems and terrible situations we had with WoD, it still felt like Warcraft. Dragonflight right next to Midnight both feel like some of the least Warcraft expansions we have had thus far to me.

It feels like nobody wants anyone to play WoW anymore. They’re making it for people who don’t exist, and if you complain, you get told to just accept it’s not for you anymore. Which leaves nobody as the target audience. What’s the point of it existing?

@desifuego Copilot hasn't ordered them to yet.

why hasn't blizzard done any class balancing anymore? r they afk ?

@miDniGhTSC2 @SnowHareAD @Warcraft It would be fine for leveling and questing, raid would be ok, PvP would be unplayable.

@Lutzalec @SnowHareAD @Warcraft The ping isn’t even that shitty. Yes it might be high. But as long as it’s stable and not bouncing up and down it’s perfectly fine for wow. You don’t need split second decisions like you need in RTS or FPS games.

Hey @Warcraft have you ever considered removing regional restrictions on servers? Allowing EU to play with US for example? I mean, couldnt you just make it akin to the realm hopping, where you phase to the party leader or something? Or at least make it so one can visit btag friends houses regardless of them being eu or us. Anyway, was just curious if it has been considered or not.

@nobccash @SnowHareAD @Warcraft I would suggest making an account on the EU servers and testing the free trial for yourself.

@Lutzalec @SnowHareAD @Warcraft it's nowhere near 2-3 seconds, 100-300ms depending on location both in US and EU on average it's bad but far from impossible to play with

@_NelsonMandala @SnowHareAD @Warcraft Which for leveling that is fine. Raiding that is ok depending on where you are. PVP that is close to unplayable.

@Lutzalec @SnowHareAD @Warcraft Latency from EU to US-East is <200ms brother

There’s parts of it that I don’t understand fully myself but these are reasons from past employees. That said, older coding architecture for sure would hold them back probably. A majority of the game’s backend would probably need recoding. Which I believe they should’ve done years ago considering the amount of money they pull in. That said, in no way am I defending Blizzard, it’s just information or excuses I’ve been given that I’ve asked at Blizzcon in the past.

@Lutzalec @SnowHareAD @Warcraft Your arguments don't make sense when you can play basically any other online game, including Blizzard games like Diablo 4 and Overwatch.

@trisstann3 @SnowHareAD @Warcraft GDPR dictates severe restrictions on how the personal data of EU citizens is transferred and stored outside of the EEA. It heavily regulates sending data to the US due to concerns over foreign government surveillance.

@SnowHareAD @Lutzalec @Warcraft that guy us making things up lol, cross region works without any problem on other blizzard games

Yea, aside from all that technical stuff, the EU has a lot of legal problems with this. Effectively giving player data from EU servers to NA servers. Another reason a majority of games are sectioned off as NA/EU/TW/KR/JP/CN and etc. Effectively the best thing to do it usually to just say No but allow the work around as you said earlier. Make a new account on their server.

@Lutzalec @Warcraft Yeah, as i said elsewhere I dont have much experience on the technical aspects of it and all, but they allow you as it is already, so why not all the way? As in, eu can play on a us account and all

@gavin_f45 Damn... Ricky Hendrick...

was anyone curious what the nationwide series currently looks like in 2009? here you go!

@priestgf I somewhat checked out in Firelands but came back and survived through to Shadowlands. Then it because a struggle to play at times. Dragonflight was just not good feeling and the only reason I play today is because I want to play a game with my friends and wife.

during what expansion did your interest for WoW begin to decline, and why???

@mask_bastard I will always say this game.

what game ?????

@warfieldwarrior This kinda gives me hope to see Dragalia Lost show up with Nintendo again.... That game was so good for a mobile game. Though I will say I am not an FF Fan really anymore but this entices me to want to play again. I enjoyed Brave Exvius quite a bit as well.

the most annoying ff fan you know is the most excited for this

Indeed, but it shows that they are worrying more about the side shit than the actual game as a whole. The pushing of housing products while certain class specs were completely unplayable due to bugs for 3 whole days. The push to make everything cost so much such as repairs after M+/Raiding or doing content to push the all-mighty token. It all comes down to the famous quote of “You think you do but you don’t “ still ever present in Blizzard’s mouth. Yet they’re willing to rig entirely new models and animations for mounts and cosmetics. I understand your stance but I whole heartedly disagree with giving any leeway to Blizzard.

@Lutzalec @xKaedos I get that but the developers doing the side shit are not animation riggers. animation rigging is a long and difficult process, especially getting it all to work with a 20+ year old game. im not running defence for blizzard btw, they should have done this years ago

This. Blizzard. I am talking directly to you. Majority of your players never asked for many of the playable races. People have widely asked for Ogres, Arakkoa, Sethrakk, etc. But you won't put them in, and instead you neglect legacy races and put in races no one asked for. You-!

Seeing Brave Exvius get its return to the world is great. I really hope @Nintendo will bring back Dragalia Lost in some form or fashion. It was such a good game.

This maybe venomous words towards Blizzard, but after the current expansion riddled with bugs from patch to patch, they don’t get to say “Not worth the effort”. Even harsher words to them, they are paid to entertain their players. If they have time to create side games like Plunder Storm, Decor Duels, and such, they have more than enough time and effort to rig some models to a new skeleton. It’s not like this is a team of 30 people making this game anymore, it’s over 500 people. The only reason Blizzard gets away with half-assed content is because people let them and the game has a heavy grasp on the genre.

@Lutzalec @xKaedos It's just not worth the effort required. It would only happen if they completely redid the games rigging system which won't happen anytime soon
