    I mean a large portion of cataclysm are the revamped zones so just putting in chromie time sounds like a bad idea since it will only cause a more empty feeling world like how it is now in retail where you go through all your leveling and barely ever see people. I mean people already say dungeon finder killed the world chromie time would only further split the world since now people won't even be questing in the same places anymore

    I played the same private server as you, it was a lot easier than I remember levelling back in the day. I levelled a few characters in Cataclysm without looms, the beta experience is the correct one and the private servers are miles off.

  • @shopshop-gj6nls
    @shopshop-gj6nls Před 2 měsíci +7

    guessing the private server you played on was whitemane. that server is notoriously buggy, all mobs have their white swing damage at like half of what they should be, and yes this includes dungeon and raid mobs/bosses. you were seeing tanks in dps gear on the first week of heroic dragon soul for a reason. meme server, don't take it seriously.

  • @lazer9870

    I think the optional Joyous Journeys buff is enough to speed up levelling. They can just leave it on 1-80 once cata comes out and possibly buff it to 100% from 50% like the sod buff.

  • @AdolfoWWolf
    @AdolfoWWolf Před 2 měsíci +18

    The end game focus is exactly the problem with Wow as an RPG, it is not the end game that should be why you play the game, but the whole experience, in many ways, leveling is the game, if you are not in the world, so other players aren't as well, and you get the same problem again. You don't gear up along the way, you don't have any reason to do dungeons, other than quick XP, and the world exploration has simply no point, with "quick shortcut to max level" available.
    RPGs are slow, and the endgame only meta, is just not good for this genre, that is among the many key reasons why the player base is so volatile these days.

    • @mw2984
      @mw2984 Před 2 měsíci

      Times change and I would argue most fo the people who play Classic or even retail are more likely to be in this game for years now. So IMO get rid of leveling... it is not an pleasent experience for years now even in retail. I do would like a slowdown of pacing so that you can get all the stuff but IMO it is time to get rid of leveling system and use a new idea how to gate character progression

    • @AdolfoWWolf

      ​@@hackintosh3899Well, that definitely has a part on all of this WoW problem, to me this does reflect on Blizz trying to make a "single player game" off of a fundamentally multiplayer game, i guess at some point recently they seem to have understood this, and are now making a few "possible" correction to the overall game, but i agree that a proper leveling experience, or fix, is never coming from Blizz. They are too deep into the single player morphing they are applying to the game.

    • @AdolfoWWolf
      @AdolfoWWolf Před 2 měsíci

      @@mw2984 I don't think removing the leveling from wow would fix anything, it would definitely bring a whole heap of problems and holes to fix, and make a already volatile player base just melt away after a few months or even weeks.
      WoW is even at this point, still an RPG game, although it has dug itself in a bunch of bloat and problems brought by the last bunch of end game focused expansions, there is a lot of thing tied to the leveling and the game even benefits from it. In WoW's case, it is just a lack of interest in molding the game into a different model than this "end game latest super hiper expac!!! get in or loose your chance" thing, it clearly has guys on suits all over this situation.
      All of this considered, there is ways they could integrate the level up process more in the overall experience, and they have the brains to do this, just not the interest.

      Meanwhile, I'm one of the people who enjoys playing on retail tourney realms just so I can play whatever class/spec at absolute max optimal gear and do as high of keys as possible, gearing is almost like leveling is to me nowadays, a boring grind idc about. I just wanna do the content at the highest level without waiting months to gear so I can finally start playing where I want be to begin with. In also that sense, Cata still feels very "classic" to a person like me (I have been playing this game with few breaks since 2007)

    • @AdolfoWWolf
      @AdolfoWWolf Před měsícem

      @@ChanJustWon I once engaged with a server of this kind, back on the LK era, and it was very cool, but i didn't last a week there, my enjoyment of my character also comes from the time i spent playing and gearing, roaming adventuring around with that character, if i instantly have top tier stuff to experience top tier stuff, it is a once and done thing, after that i never come back to that experience, there is no reason to do so, obviously our interests lie in different aspects of the same game, but you also can see my point, and i play since that same year as you did.
      This is along the same reason i don't play moba games, or Battle Royale games, they don't have the appeal to me.

    To be fair they have to make leveling some what easier as the max level gets higher. Or else it would also be atrocious they just have to find a good balance. Maybe mobs are just as hard but, you get more XP from kills and quests etc.

  • @Storytelling_Central
    @Storytelling_Central Před 2 měsíci

    Tbh, I think making leveling harder but a bit quicker sounds good to me. On the other hand, having an 85 just by itself is a bit of a commitment because it's not done in just 1 hour, and I think that's good because Classic is just classic, and things are slower and more RPG-oriented. If you want it fast and shiny, go retail. If you do the Chromie timeline warp, it's only okay for me if there is no level-up scaling with the monsters to your level if you don't choose to do Chromie. What I wish is to keep the dungeon difficulties of Cata pre-nerfed! I remember that it was hard but so rewarding and fun, finally managing your cooldowns or your mana so you don't go oom or die and feel how much better you get over time.

    • @mw2984

      2. Bring Discovers Delight in Wow Legacy(Classic)
      3. Make ALL monsters in the world be like it's in Real Wow. You no longer need to have a TAG in order to be the sole one who gets experience and loot from that monster.
      4. we are all old we don't wanna sit hours and hours grinding we all want to play the end game of cataclysm which is arenas and raids.

    Private servers, mods for games. It's all the same, players making things things easier where they want. More often than not, it means making player more powerful than originally or making environment less hostile, one way or another. I've not player on cata private server but I have tried another. I have played vanilla wow on every expansion when they were released. I can assure you it's the private servers that were making things easy. And making game easier is not necessarily making it more fun.
