Retail?

[Hyperion]

So who here plays retail all the time?

 

[Foereaper]

You and Tommy

 

[Zulku]

I wouldn't say all the time but I maintain some 90's.

 

[Neth]

I'd rather return on my mac than playing retail

Do it. It might save your life to get rid of your Mac.

I have two times played some part of the trial. And once got to go to a BG with my friend's account (and died multiple times causing huge gear repair costs).

I always say that. Hell, bump a thread from 2013.. I don't care. I never saw the point of other communities frowning upon that.


On-Topic: I haven't played WoW since Sep. of last year or maybe earlier than that. WoD got repetitive.

 

[Vitrex]

9 months without new content, blizzard must be crazy ( WOD) if they think that will keep subs number from falling down again.

 

[blackmetal]

Playing retail for 3 months, then quit :sweaty:

 

[pinkyflip]

retail? pffft fuck that. they ruined game play when cata came out. and now its getting even more retarded the more they change shit...

Like private servers are truly any better? WoD is 100% gear and realm dependent. I still play retail, transferred to a high-pop realm and put Heroic HFC on farm. Anyone that truly bashes on it never got to the end game in any of the other expansions to realize that it's all the same.

I'd admit that in WoD the dungeon and raid boss fights were more difficult than in MoP. I'm glad they brought that back because in TBC boss fights weren't easy at all (at least not from my experience). However, I found it quite boring in the end like the end-game in MoP. I'm not really the type of person who only wants to play WoW or any MMO by coming on every week just to raid. I think if there was more fun end-game content to mess around with it wouldn't be so bad to continue playing the WoD expansion. It mainly got to the point where I was just logging in, doing dailies, selling items on AH and logging out.

still don't understand what people think when they play PVE in multiplayer games... IMO if you wanna kill stuff like bosses, go play single player games OR games like Diablo. MMORPG games must entertain people with PVP content. that's the only reason I play wow. for PVP.

Not necessarily. I enjoy PvE nowadays more than PvP. Though, WoW's PvP got to the point where it started to become horrible in MoP. Now, you can get full Arena gear in less than a few hours and as far as I know the "Elite" arena gear is nothing but transmog items. PvP was amazing in TBC/WotLK (not sure about Cata) because you had to actually work for your gear. I remember when resilience played a factor and it was hard for a Gladiator geared Warrior take out a Merciless Gladiator geared Warrior. You play in battlegrounds now everything just seems the same with all classes, except when you're about to kill someone they run away which is quite annoying, especially in Arenas. They dumb'd the game down way too much over the years.

don't defend the fact that nowdays PVP is shit. but still the PVP feature as it is " You can kill other player if you are better" is what keeps me playing this game

I think I made a valid argument on how PvP is. I didn't really imply PvP was shit as I was just pointing out how they changed PvP and how it affects me or other players. I was a major PvP'er back in the old days and I know how much PvP has changed over the years.

You can kill other player if you are better

I wish that were true. As I pointed out when you're about to kill a player they run away and heal before they die. There's no skill in that. I "guess" how the PvP gear is now & how easy it is to obtain it (everyone has the best PvP gear basically), skill might play a factor, but not majority of the time.
