    Leveling is the process I always enjoyed most in WoW. The atmosphere, the inimitable music, the gorgeous locations and the story you participate in and travel through. It might be confusing for new people, but if they take away ability to level through the previous expansions, I'd likely just stop playing the game.

  • @josephbegley9148
    @josephbegley9148 Před rokem +17

    Great video! I just wanted to add that technically Dragonflight has less solo content than the past few expansions because almost all of the endgame open world content requires groups now-which was confirmed by the devs and the game itself calling it “group content” and adding tools to help automate group finding. So what Dragonflight really has a lot of is open world content that necessitates group play but is more accessible to solo players than the instanced group content. However, the leveling experience in Dragonflight is indeed soloable other than a few optional dungeon quests.

    my opinion is that it really hold up even though its a really old game. I think its creative, fun, and there is something for everyone to do. I love how much you can customize and its not super competitive. Something I wish they could do better though is dialogue. I think most people can agree that some text to speech would be nice instead of having to read it in a small little book. Thats my opinion on WOW

    The massive problem in accordance to wow is the playability for new players. Learning rotations and how everything works, along with the lore and how boring it becomes early game. That’s the massive issue for wow, great at keeping its current fan base, but horrible for attracting new players.

      That's the "idea" of this game. It always was like that. If you unable to invest large amount if time to learn everything necessary and then practice all of your newly acquired knowledge....
      Your experience won't be enjoyable nor ideal. You need that experience and knowledge to participate in the end game. Not world quest zerging. I would say that this is strictly bad design. But some many people are playing this game is that particular fashion. i'ts probably not )

      I'm a new player to wow, I did a leveling route to 60, had a blast learning how to play shaman even though it was a bit daunting at times, but after I rearranged my entire UI the class has become alot easier that and guides, still early in to dragonflight which I'm now paying attention too, and I gotta say this kind of gameplay is a breath of fresh air in comparison to ffxiv, wow really prioritizes gameplay over story telling, but this I what I recommend to anyone who wants to experience the story, do a leveling route to 60, unlock chromie time, then make an alt for any expansion you're interested in experiencing for the lore. The leveling experience is also cool cause of the talent tree which allows you to play your class however you want. I'm really impressed with this game and have now become completely addicted to it

      Wow is the best game of all time. I played back in 2004. I am now 36 and I would play again. The most of the games the last years are for soft players, players who do not want to try to improve in the game. The market is full of pay-2-win games or games with poor content. I would wish I could go back to 2004 and I would play Wow again with same passion. The quality of the current games makes an old style player like me a bit sad

      i pick the game up last week and its been hell, i mean if you care about story and lore like that it might be tolerable. Levelling feels like training, like a means to an end, not like a journey. Very annoying to get stunned by mob when you want to go quickly. If its mmorpg you should you should feel free like the real world, in wow questing is must its the only to level up, in other mmo loke bdo yoi can just go anywhere and start killing and you will level up. you can do that in wow too but since there are big chunk of rewards in returning quest there is no motivation to do other things. In other mmo like lost ark if you are going to need a tool say like fishing rod to fish it gives you the quest but in wow it completely fail to explain how things work, no guide its like playing chess without knowing the game mechanics.

Levelling is a journey but only if that's your perspective on it. Personally I love nothing more than to take my time exploring zones and doing quests to level up at my own pace, but if you're whole goal is to just get to max level as quickly as possible, then anything you do is going to feel like a chore. Mob stuns don't last long and most classes have a utility to deal with it so you shouldn't have too many issues.

    I just recently stop playing a few months ago. I had played since early 2006. I love the game but all my friends stopped playing, but I solo’d or did LFG or LFR and some pug PVP. The increase of things (dailies) you have to do was literally another job. I have anxiety issues and doing all this for multiple toons, the huge increase of spells or this or that you have to do to play just became overwhelming for me. So I only did quests. But doing them alone gave me a “what’s the point, it’s kinda boring” and I quit. I do miss playing but oh well.

    I remember getting 3 Fireflies in half a day during the Burning Crusade Era..
    I would normally farm for just one for days sometimes weeks but I remember getting 3 in a day!
    And then the next generation it took me literally like 8 months to get the Giant Sewer Rat and you got NOTHING else on your casts..
    I finally got it in the same week I ended up getting that green proto-drake from the egg..
    I had a lot of stuff from fishing I remember and I was there basically from the start too..
    WAY before achievements or even burning crusade I remember lining up for that at my local mall the line was out the door!!
    I remember they had to nerf the game because of an OP thing I found with the stoneshield potion or elixir or whatever when it first came out, I would use it as a mage in alteric valley I would blink into the entire group and do major AOE damage to them all and hit the stonshield potion lol.. And When it first came out with that expansion it would turn you into stone for 2 minutes at a time no matter how much damage you took or whatever anyone tried to do to you so it would confuse everyone too and everyone would focus on you and try to kill you while your team wipes them out and you get kills for all of them cause you stay alive.
    You could hit them back to back and I was a potion master so that had a crazy double edge on the loophole and made it even more OP I would make 100s of them and ALWAYS take 1st place in AV (I think it's alteric valley? It's been awhile.. but the raid BG)
    I literally got a notice from a BM or whatever about it, they didn't realize you could do that and thought it was funny and literally nerfed the game right after...
    I just checked I still have my account..

    Love your take on this. So much is spot on. One thing that might change your view in time is Dragonriding. It is, just as you said a great idea to make the travel between quests fun. But in a game with Daily Quests, which can already feel like a chore, having to do another 'game' to get to each chore gets old fast. Also, without the ability to hover, gathering is a nightmare, though to be fair, when you can buy a $20 token to get 200lk gold, no one is gathering anymore in a serious way except bots. But this is a highly decisive take, seems like half the population would eliminate old flying entirely, so take my opinion with a big grain of salt.
    thanks for the great content.

    I would say for sure right now new character experience leaves a lot to be desired. I made a new paladin and it sent him into Shadowlands, where I got to a point where the story just ended, turned out after a certain point the story is level gated, (I had to place a GM ticket that took several days to get answered to find this out) and Blizzards response to me was to go to another story and do that for 11 levels... How is this a thing in the worlds biggest MMO?
    I enjoyed Dragonflight, but once I hit level cap it felt just like grinding for not much. I haven't even logged in for a month.
    I wouldn't hope to hard on Dragon Riding making it past Dragonflight, no other expansion systems have lasted past that expansion.

That's why your end game grind felt like nothing. Like you getting to nowhere. This game could be a very different experience for those who have knowledge and for those who don't. The "real" end game is no different from any other xpac. The "dressing" is.

      Gotta agree there. Even with the raiding, once my Drac was maxed I felt like I had to do a lot for next to nothing or just stand around. I like WoW as much as the next person but I’m not about to pay for an overpriced chat room. I think the lvling and streamline of story could really improve the game like ff14 did. I feel involved in that game. Despite it being mostly fetch quests I didn’t mind bc it’s ENGAGING. Wows questing never really felt engaging so it was hard to be invested when you KNEW you were doing a fetch quest.

    You basically played for M+ and Raid. That's what you did the most. Those 2 activities provides the best results (If you lucky enough)
    To be frank i don't see any reason to spend your time on anything else in this game if you proficient enough (IE know what to do to get best results)
    Maybe besides gathering to earn some gold and then order some crafts for missing pieces of gear. I got to admit that this is their best expansion in a long time.

    My wife and I have contrasting perspectives.

We both played WoW together for years but dropped off when life got busy. Now we're reluctant to come back because we have to start all over if we play the new game but the legacy servers might be really enjoyable for nostalgia.

Continued through Cata, Mists and went until the Garrison bs and stopped. Recently moved and found my passwords for WoW, re-installed battlenet and classic and getting DF and just waiting 3 days until I have the cash for my sub. Then I'm going back to Azeroth just to relive the old days a bit and try for a few mounts I always wanted like the T.L.P.D. I know the game is almost unrecognizable from the old days but no other game has ever drawn me in and enchanted me the way WoW did. Cheers from the about to be Frozen North.

    You can now earn tier sets without having to even sniff a raid, levelling alts has never been easier (and is about to get even moreso in the next patch), and it's relatively friendly towards gamepad users. Is it perfect? Far from it. But it seems to me that they've paid attention to some of their competitors - as well as the player base - in adding more fun, and less stress, to the game.

    I played from the end of classic to Cata, and have picked it up for weeks at a time since then. The reason i stopped playing is because it is hard to adjust from playing as a kid in school, to an adult working full time and starting family. My experience with WoW is freely playing for 4 hours most nights, when my free time changed I struggled to enjoy for an hour or two here and there. Now, when I return to the game, I feel there is a lack of identity and the social aspect is non existent (for me anyway). I think Blizzards efforts to try and make it accessible for people like me (with less time) has actually had the opposite affect. It should not be a easy task to acquire the best gear.
    I think WoWs biggest mistake was LFR and LFG. When I played MoP, I could not tell you where the instance locations were for any dungeons. And with the ability to auto-queue with people in other realms, there is literally no point in communicating with others in these groups.
    Now, when I pick up the game, I join dungeons for the first time and everyone around me is just flying through dungeons for the reward, not the experience. I’m trying to keep up and learn the boss fight, but everyone around me is flying through without any difficulty as they’ve done it many times before.
    I remember when you hopped into WoW and could feel like you had an identity. Using WOTLK as an example, you could say “I am a feral Druid with great spell rotation and currently making my way through Ulduar and IC. I am punctual and can offtank if required”. Now, you are “feral Druid, item level x”.

    Shadowlands was my first experience with wow and is pretty much the reason i'll never give WoW another chance.
    Whilst i can see the improvements they made in the new expansion, some of my key issues with the game remain in place being:
    - RNG as a base design criteria for loot without badluck protection (only a catalyst but it unlocks too late)
    - Item level progression, making alts a full second job to do if you wanna play them as the same level
    - While i really liked the dungeons themselves and did keys a lot (and quite high), i dislike the M+ system as a whole, its not difficult, its annoying affixes on top of a dungeon, with some infinite scaling making an artificial wall you eventually hit
    - Weekly lockouts, weekly vault of dissappointment, etc. These are VERY outdated ideas and WoW holds on to it simply because they know players will otherwise just quit earlier than they want to, they want to keep subs going longer, so they artificially increase the time you have to play the game. They would be better off making playing alts easier, people would play more/longer because they WANT To, not because some dipshit at blizzard HQ decided you had to.
    That said, i think if i hadn't suffered through shadowlands, i would have enjoyed dragonflight. I would still be annoyed by the systems listed above, but it would be counteracted more (i hope) by good content.

    I stopped playing few months ago after playing the game since original TBC with few breaks here and there. Ive always been end game raider. Heroic / Mythic / CE raider depends on the era. Always enjoyed that part of the game the most and whatever I did was to work towards that.
    What changed was after WoW Classic got released then TBC and currently Wrath I experienced the differences on what it used to be and what it is now. And it got more obvious that I dont really enjoy the game anymore after playing some other MMOs in past year or so (not to the degree of WoW but way more casually). I used to enjoy the game in many different ways back in the years. Chilling with friends literally exploring pointless places. Doing pvp for the fun of it (i havent been much into PvP unless it was required for me as mythic raider in some patches after that) farming mounts pets achieves etc. Currently even tho I am adult I do still find free time to throw into games so time spent is not an issue. The issue I found for myself is that I really stopped enjoying the game doing all the random stuff purely for the sake for being good CE raider. I felt like I am rushed to go trough highest m+ required for the gear I need. Have to rush the storyline to unlock important stuff for my progression (less so in DF than previously but still) and so on. I just felt I need to rush it because I would be behind and it was a real thing but I was ok with all of that for basically years until it hit me few months ago that everything I do during a patch becomes obsolete after few months. You can always go and do most of the stuff from previous patches but as a solo player and you never go trough it as intended. I always knew that but I never felt it and it just hit me and I felt like ive basically been wasting my time and that way of playing is not enjoyable for me anymore.
    For now I will build up few classes in Wrath to prepare for Cata because thats the expansion I played the most times (aka private servers) and for me Cata is my nostalgia and would love to do it again from blizzard. Not for the day to day gameplay but just for the raids T11 T12 maybe even DS will see. After that I am really hoping for Riot MMO to come out or be close to coming out and I hope so much it will be done in a way where no matter for how long the game is alive how many expansions it has or w/e you can always go trough the very first dungeon / raid / zone / whatever and experience it in the way it was meant to be and not like in WoW where every few months theres a new patch which makes what you have done so far obsolete or useless or pointless to do again.
    Theres so much content in WoW for all those years its been alive and its such a shame that everything that you are suppose to do is only current patch and nothing else outside of that. As I mentioned surely you can go back and you can run old stuff but you never gonna experience it as it was meant to be. You never gonna make Molten core or Firelands or Siege of Orgrimmar or Tomb of Sargeras or any dungeon or raid with bunch of ppl and be anywhere close to a challenge with relevant rewards (being that as items or enjoyment).

    I enjoy the solo questing, so it would be enjoyable again, you say?

    WoW needs to evolve to a survival sandbox mmorpg like Conan Exiles. Where you can join servers where you can build. Where your character has hunger and thirst and sleep meters. Where you play through vanilla 1-55 before progressing through the DLC, now with flying mounts, all while trying to survive by drinking and eating and sleeping. Except you can also build buildings that produce npcs, and lead those npcs in battle. They need to put the WarCraft back in World of WarCraft and add a dash of Ark/Conan Exiles. But make different building styles, etc for different classes, races, reputation, quests, etc. And if you're a DeathKnight you eat souls instead.
    Thoughts?

    the story couldn't be farther away from wc3...so many bad decisions and people felt ripped off, its time to let this game die in peace.

    I'm an Old Wow. Player I've played since 🐈. Ok, jokes over. 1 of my favourite classes & specs. Has always been Holy precise, I even achieved the Partisan title. So I remember losing control of my character in arenas and dying constantly. Simply because if your a healer you've got big flashing arrow above your head saying to the opposition,' Kill Me!'. 🤣🤣 I thought I'd never play again, but now I might! 😃😃😃😃
