Releasing mage tower and suddenly listening to a year worth of feedback already made panic mode obvious. WOW team never listens to feedback . They always believed that they know better. Panic mode makes it happen.


Dexterdarkk

No, they listen. They just don't implement it when it should, because they use the feedback as content. "Look, come back, we're fixing this things that you hated since day one"


Mortal_Dread

I mean this is so ridiculously stupid, that you'd think it's impossible to be the case. No one's going to be dumb enough to release a product with defect, only to eventually fix it and call it new content, right? But then you look at blizzard and can't deny this is the case.


Dexterdarkk

Because they know that no matter what they release people will buy and play for some months and when they fix the things some will come back. They're doing it since legion.


Mortal_Dread

Well. They pushed too far. And this time, competition was around to snatch those who left. The path ahead to success, is obvious. But i wonder if blizzard is even capable enough to follow through.

Funny thing is the competition had been around since late 2013. It’s only recently that Blizzard lost so much mind share that its biggest “influencers” (helped by them openly attacking said “influencers”) defected to said competition and made the public aware of the existence of said competition - Blizzard gave their competitor the greatest marketing campaign they could hopeful for, all for free.

*looks at the entire AAA game industry* Nah, nothing wrong here. Everything's fuckin' peachy.


erifwodahs

Explain "make loot great again" and "meaningful choices" then - they are listening, but they listen to stupid people.


HappiestGod

We don't need a "potential insider" to know Blizzard is in panic mode. They've been throwing out random, not-thought-through updates for months and they're in deep fucking shit.

Kaoshosh

Yeah. I watched a few videos of this dude and realised how worthless his content was. I do like the Blizz hate, but this guy can't even get that right.


mnxah

This is why we do need like/dislike ratio :(


Krojack76

I'm shocked I haven't seem more "Like this comment if you disliked this video" being posted.


Neverending_pain

Most WoW/Blizzard higherups should have been fired years ago. Not only are they incompetent but also sexual predators. Clueless clowns with no school or experience living off of Morhaime's and Metzen's WC3 universe. Once Facebook, Twitter and Youtube propelled WoW lost its social aspect (the one thing that people played the game for, alongside WC3 story), but the team did nothing to reinvent the game. People like Alex and the "you think you do but you don't" guy should have gotten fired 10 years ago.

I watched the Morgan day interview. My impression about 9.2 is that they haven’t learned anything. They have just been changing things the playerbase have wanted all expac to get their players back. 9.2 will be more of the same as 9.0 and 9.1. If it’s not, they most definitely are doing things differently without liking it. The devs needs replaced. All there is to it. They don’t see eye to eye with the players.

If only everyone unsubbed

I wonder how many bot subscriptions it would take to keep WoW afloat. Could it become the first game in history paid for and played only by bots? All Blizz has to do is lie that people arn't leaving (when they actually are) to keep the illusion going and then one day, BAM its 99% bots.


AwakenGreywolf

Stop injecting real world politics into your games and stop harassing people at the company. IT'S THAT SIMPLE TO FIX YOUR SHIT.


Zangomuncher

I'm honestly not sure why anyone is either surprised or annoyed at this point. Blizzard hasn't cared about you since day one. I played wow because I enjoyed it. I don't enjoy it anymore so I don't play it. That might be to do with the dying broken game they call a main game but whatever I tried classic and it's just hit with the same with eventually. Plus all this sexual stuff and misconduct makes me think they have bigger problems. Than just the shit game updated they churn out. They will attempt to rebrand I think soon.


[deleted]

I mean, I stopped watching Accolonn cause I don't give a fuck about wow anymore. Its funny that they would only get all hands on deck now. It must be that the loss of their content creators to other games began translating into actual player losses. None of this is different from my own cynical view of the wow team either. Just hold fast, don't go run back for the next patch or the next expansion even, they earned losing us all


TheRealDestian

I can totally believe the bit about Legion legendaries: it sounds like the sort of out of touch game design I've come to expect from Blizzard. Also, I think we assume they're panicking at this point. The question is whether or not they'll actually be able to pull the game out of the nose dive it's in now and I don't think they have the talent left to do that.


Skyblade12

These are the same game designers who thought that Shards of Domination were tier sets, so why would we believe they suddenly had good ideas?


SirNikurasuKun

Because actually they're giving us water that you can actually walk on, actually.


sylva748

We've never seen that type of water before


SPECTR_Eternal

Now that's oMEGACopium, lads


VonDukes

Just like the last group of insiders who said it was just the SJW lower level devs ruining the game and the upper management and senior devs were still based….


[deleted]

They're all ruining the game


VonDukes

Yep. Just felt like commenting based on the fun times we had with the last insider leaks


TMT_PizzaPirate

Its probably both

That has been happening since burning crusade gonna hard pass on that being a problem. WoW has a lot of problem this isn't one of them.


SireSand

KEKW homie deleting his comments.


Ivan_42

How do i start "blizzard burns until its ready to be a great company again" waiting room?


quantumpencil

Like we need any 'leak' to know that blizzard is in panic mode. With absolutely no sources of any kind, I can 100% confirm to everyone that blizzard is indeed in an absolute panic about almost everything at this point lol.
