        So I have genuine autism and have decided to go to wowprogress.com and click spam left mouse button till I reach the bottom of the progress table. Keep in mind this data is from 14th January 2023, so over a month since vault opened on 12th December.

        This anon isn't lying. Wowprogress records ALL GUILDS from over the world including China, Korea, NA, Europe and Oceania.

        There's a total of 17804 guilds that cleared at least 1 boss on normal difficulty, slightly above the chart but again this data is current instead of how many days old the chart is. Even if you assume that every single raid included 40 people (very unlikely) that's a total of 712k players that even dabbled in PVE.

        This game is beyond dead.

            Even then I think from personal experience it's safe to assume that the total number of guilds is correct, and the 40 man raid was a super generous and impossibly optimistic way to calculate it as the average group size from my years of hc experience is usually around 25. Yes some guilds do multiple runs, but if you're in a guild that has multiple groups you usually talk about super serious mythic progressing guilds that are a small minority (around 3500 guilds cleared at least 1 mythic boss). Then you have to account for the fact that mythic difficulty only allows 20 players. All in all 700k is the maximum possible number and that's talking out of my ass, it's probably closer to 500k if you talk about average 20-25 man raid.

              Then add the casuals who only do LFR/PUG.

                I'm the guy who made the 2 million minimum claim, but I'm not the dude you are arguing with currently. My reasoning for that number is that SL sold 3.7 million copies on the first day and probably reached +5 million total sales.

                The M+ numbers for DF are much higher than SL, so logic dictates that there's more players now at this point than there were at the same point in SL. 11.2 million runs vs 3.7 million runs.

              Yes it does work like this, but it's more common that there are people in the 1000 player leveling guilds that never bother to leave, so a guild that has 200 people pugging is only getting counted as 40 players by this guy. Whereas the players that don't join the leveling guilds aren't even counted by this metric.

          said it's all relative to previous expansions as per

        No. I refuse. As a Paladin i have something called integrity and WoW will never die as long as i am still logging in getting sweet mounts, armour transmogs and achievements. I am the eternal wall protecting my HOBBY from the haters, anti shills and traitors that left for the Other Game.

        For the fricking HORDE my brothers, we will weather this storm and come out stronger, purged of the weak who lacked belief in the Holy Light!

      The game is boring, generic MMORPG trash with no real thought behind it. Lost its charm, no tricks on innovation, same old boring game play that has existed (and arguably in better state) since the game released.
      The fact that you bought the game already shows how much of a blizzdrone you are. They game died with Wod and everything afterwards had been carried but what the game once was. Yes even legion was absolutely souless trash
      The truth is, the game lost its identity trying to appeal to literal drug addicts with shit for brains. Also, MMOs nowadays kinda struggle to find their place since every single game under the sun is increasingly interconnected which makes the socialization in wow super mundane when it used to be special

                Thats usually a bad sign not a good one. Good ideas get ripped off. Bad ones don't. If nobody is ripping off M+ thats not because its some great challenge to emulate.

                And to be honest I don't know that reason. I really enjoy slamming small group PvE content with my friends and WoW has a total control on that market because of m+. XIV dungeons are guaranteed wins with no risk of failure, I don't think ESO has anything like it either, I'd really really love to see another MMO come up with some kind of group PvE that challenges you and is fun

          M+ single handily ruined gear progression for the average raider. The only thing able to keep the masses playing. The social pressure to grind m+ to solve raid problems via raw stat numbers instead of getting better at the raids was a poison pill.

      I fricking wish. raiding is not really mandatory in theory but in practice it is. getting 4p without raiding is almost impossible this early. hc raid is ~m+10 difficulty equivalent but gives you up to 408 ilvl
      meanwhile m+10 gives you 392.

        Well, let's see, we had dogshit advertising I don't even know how many normal people really even knew if Dragonflight was coming out and they definitely have no idea what the frick to expect from it when every advertisement is just a dragon flying around. You can't really extrapolate a meaning to the dragon isles until you actually get in game and find out random a lightning dragon is pissed off she was locked in a cage for a long time.
        This xpac is coming after the complete and total shit show that was shadowlands, where it finally made the devs tone down their gigantic egos and make smart changes towards the end because they were in full panic mode.
        And that xpac came after BFA which was pretty lackluster and the horde vs alliance thing had already long since run its course. Which again only had good changes towards the very end after they held people hostage from having actual catch up mechanics.
        Now they face the consequences since they not only fricked everyone two xpacs in a row but they giga fricked casuals in shadowlands between legendary prices and all the systems ending up killing casuals like everyone said they would since alpha testing. The only people left are people that enjoy hanging out in the game, or people that want to clear "difficult" content when the only difficulty in any MMO comes from the players around you and not the content itself.

            Legendaries were still way to expensive and this leads into the next point. Casuals are slow and they like to experiment without guides. If you see a gigantic Facebook timer on changing your conduits you're probably going to be a little pissed. If you want to buy a bunch of different legendaries of any quality it's still going to be super expensive and time consuming to farm out the mats. Blizzard acknowledged it months later in a blue post despite knowing it would be a problem way before that point, but they held people hostage for subs until the slow crowd finally found out what the frick was going on.
            Also all types of raising guilds for any type of content fall apart because building a team consistent enough to clear the content requires all players to be around and have even one brain cell to live in an encounter. If you have players falling over or failing to show up to raid then you have to constantly either spend weeks training and them or spend weeks recruiting more players only to find out they're also not getting it, until you finally get a dream team that disbands after one patch anyways. The reality is anyone good at the game will move up from shit teams and join guilds that can reliably clear the type of content they wish to clear.

                yea months down the road when the higher ilvl pieces released so low ilvl shit tanked hard. But if you weren't on a mega populated realm you were going to pay a shit ton. Even on large pop RP realms you got raped. And then that's another thing, what percentage of the casual base would actually farm out gold? The sepulcher patch was basically the only free money patch for casuals because of the initial Essentia prices and that's if they were there the first few weeks. And because of essentia prices, max ilvl legendaries during the sepulcher patch were at absurd price points. If I had to sell two keys (on A52) to afford my bis max ilvl cloth piece on my alt mage (6 weeks into the patch) imagine what a casual has to go through for their shiny new piece of gear, and on that topic saying casuals do not need a bis legendary is an incredibly reductive argument. Why do casuals not need something that can increase their desire to play the game? Perhaps they happen to want the legendary and don't even know it's their bis, but they make it their goal to get it.

I know they were written from the titans pov but they haven't been retconned in any official capacity. if they were retconned, can you point me to the canon lore that said jailer told the nathrezim to lie to sargeras about the void? even though we saw in game, in canon, void beings infesting world souls?

                this is debatable. We dont have the specifics of Sargeras' fall, but the dreadlords could have egged him on or lied about the severity of corruption
                All the other titans are aware of void corruption too but didnt go crazy, just knowing isnt enough, something had to push Sargeras over the line
                Pre-TBC there was some involvement of the Eredar but that was retconned when they decided to make the draenei and eredar the same thing so Eredar were no longer originally demons but instead fallen mortals

                They are. They're saying the Titans lied to everyone about what they did on Azeroth. The Titans being Order-aligned in the Chronicles-era cosmology, they see it as acceptable to deceive mortals and their creations to uphold Order.

              The dreadlords aren't actually demons they're servants of Sire Denathrius, whom he instructed to, and the dreadlords were the ones who told Sargeras about the void lords, so he could corrupt a world soul, which would eventually die and clog the Shadowlands (all according to his master plan)

    Played from mid Vanilla to the first patch of warlords when it was clear they were out of ideas. Gave FFXIV a try since i was a fan of FF long before playing the Warcraft RTS games and was desperate for a good FF during "the decade of lightning" and never went back.

    From the outside i've seen my old WoW guild shrink with each expansion and the ones sticking behind only grew more aggro and bitter. The best thing XIV did wasn't make me swap one mmo for another but go "yo when you are bored frick off and do literally anything else, we aren't going anywhere". When you can play an MMO on your terms and not the devs all that stress and bitterness goes with it.

    It looks like Shadowlands just brought that bitterness to the point it finally broke the trust limit and people finally decided they were better without WoW in their life than with it.

      Just like any other game? WoW has been catering to this playstyle for over a decade, every single patch brings a reputation farm which you can complete in under a month, and it takes less than two weeks to get geared up and start mythic raiding. Unless you're socially moronic you can just find and join a guild to progress with when resubbing and just quit when you're bored.

        You aren't supposed to be able to fly straight up. Its more like gliding than actually having free aerial movement like old mounts. But since Blizz can't program for shit, you can cheese it by wiggling like that.

      I've never played WoW so what the frick is the difference between regular flying mounts and dragons?

        There are hundreds of normal flying dragon mounts. Dragonriding is basically a minigame that you're forced to play to go faster instead of being able to move however you want in the air. It was lifted wholesale from Guild Wars 2.

        3 times faster than epic flying if you just fly up then glide to your destination, 4 times faster if you're trying to go fast

        For some reason brainlets don't understand that you can just afk glide places.

        Normal flying mounts just go in a straight line from A to B at 410%. Dragonriding has things like momentum, weight, etc. where if you use your abilities to fly up into the air and then swoop down(kinda like if you imagine Spiderman swinging on his webs) then you can go 1400% speed. There's also a couple of abilities and a system ala combo points/energy.

        However, the system is moronicly broken in the sense that you can literally just flick your mouse straight up into the sky for 0.5 seconds, press your "flap upwards" hotkey instantly and quickly turn your mouse level again, to achieve the same 1400% speed while flying in a straight line. You can keep doing this over and over every 4-5 seconds.

      It's pretty weird considering this was their new approach to the overworld content and yet it's somehow the exact same as all the content in wow. "Be sure to catch these events that happen every two hours and don't miss that window or it's another two hours for you!" They hyper extended a rep grind and pretend it's an improvement when it's not even cross character still. And the end game is the exact same flavor of overtuned but now they're slightly faster at patching everything so they'll be sure to make it baby tier by the .5 patch instead of just before the next raid tier.

    Legion was the last expansion that worked. Player retention was much higher. They have dropped the ball 3 expansions in a row now. Allied races could have been cool but they picked the lowest effort races to adapt. I’d probably play every now and then if there was a cool new race to check out.

      Legion only had player retention because the artifact weapon was an obligatory infinite grind.
      People fricking hated it and it burned them out. When BfA had a similar infinite grind mechanic people got disgusted and weren't willing to do it again and left.

    I last played in early Legion and left because of the artifact weapon grind and class changes.
    My friend memed me into playing again saying that everything is good now. I fell for it.
    Played for a month. Holy shit the game is fricking garbage now. Class design is creatively bankrupt, it's all just the Diablo 3-like resource builder/spender design. I played Warlock and it feels absolutely awful.

    Mythic+ dungeon farming is the most degenerate shit I've ever seen. It somehow managed to combine garbage players with elitism and has some of the shittiest attitude I've ever seen in vidya. It's an awful neverending weekly grind with larger grind sessions every time they increase the ilvls. And it gives better gear than fricking heroic raids on a no lockout. Who the frick though that this was a good idea? Even if I ignore everything else M+ is reason alone to never touch this game again.

    And the new raid is also some of the most bland shit I've ever seen. Both visually and boss mechanics too, there isn't anything that's fun and stands out.

    I've been playing on private servers since then to cleanse my soul of this trash with some good old classic WoW.

              No, you didn't. You could do every single raid in the entire game with 50% of the raid AFK or being clickers/keyboard turners, except Naxx. I am 99% sure that you didn't even play back then, considering the dumb shit you are spouting.

    I‘m trying to play it, mostly i pvp in this game and am pretty good heals…

    But this expansion in terms of creative direction is dismal. Every main character is voiced by either a woman reading her toddler a halloween story or some lgbt man, the writing is borderline ESL (tf does fleecepelt mean? why do the centaurs call you “two-foot” when they have 0 feet?), sharp gleaming israeliteels and metal armor art looks like a chinese mobile game from 2008 or actually worse, so far 1 good music track i noticed, dialogue is tame and about “the power of family” and “working together”, boring even for probably 5th grade, playerbase seems kind if depressed too and isolated (RSS took over regular arena), etc.

    I’d keep on and play it if there were really *any* interesting story elements or new characters like the venthyr were or literally any hint of personality, but so far this xpac is so bankrupt of any noncorporate energy that I’m probably just going to focus on wagie-ing over it. I guess thanks, pozzard. Maybe.

    Fool me once, shame on you. (BFA)
    Fool me twice, shame on you again. (Shadowlands)
    Fool me three times? No, just no. It's over, Blizzard. No more chances. (Dragonflight)

      Join a casual FC and just be friendly with them until someone suggests doing content, then gradually redpill them into doing High-End content by doing earlier extremes and savages until they're good enough to do real shit. That's how my FC wound up the way they are.

    Talk shit all you want about Dragonflight but daily reminder that 6.3 is worse than 5.3 in every single fricking way it's not even close. If 6.3 is a sign of the future of XIV than it looking pretty damn grim.

      5.3 was the best patch the game has ever had. That's not an honest comparison to make. 2.3, 3.3, and 4.3 don't hold a candle to 5.3 by any metric either.

      no one expected 5.3 to be as good as it was, since 5.2 was dull.

    They should really make a new MMO already. Preferably something that resembles as little as possible of WoW.

          Does anyone think Riot is stupid enough to copy a failed system like m+? Maybe they’re actually that moronic and League of Legends was just lightning in a bottle.

            If Blizzard is known for polishing and casualizing whatever is popular then selling it to the unwashed masses, Riot just copies whatever shit comes from Blizzard's butthole and pukes on top of it.
            So to answer your question, it doesn't matter, Riot still has yet to release a good game.

      Blizzard is already in the process of making some pseudo-MMO(think a few hundred players per server ala Ark) survival game.

        I may be in the minority but I actually like how the girls in FFXIV feel more like real characters while still being sexy (while not bawdting it up).

    I played it a bit, got to 2300 M+, cleared the raid on heroic and then called it for now. Maye I'll grind my M+ to 2400 for arbitrary reasons but I'm cool with playing different shit till season 2 now.
