Why do some people believe WoW to be a difficult video game or to feature difficult/complex mechanics to perform?
These people you describe don't exist.
The premise of this thread is fake.
I've played WoW off and on for many years and have met several people who believe WoW is a hard game. The gameplay itself.
XIV has even worse coding somehow but MMOs in of themselves are not difficult video games.
They just don't want to admit that ffxiv is better in every single category including raid difficulty
More people beat savage than mythic, therefore wow is harder. Simple logic.
The Warcraft universe went to shit over a decade ago, all that’s left is disparity, desperation, and coombait.
shadowlands destroyed the lore
You should have stopped caring in mop
Because they didn't install addons
But the mechanics in the game are not suddenly difficult without the inclusion of addons.
the mechanics are made with addons in mind
So what mechanics specifically do you believe to be difficult, and why? Staying out of bad is not a difficult concept.
>staying out of bad that requires pixel perfect positioning from all 20 players
>not designed with addons in mind
cope
Can you describe some examples of "pixel perfect positioning"?
>cope
Probably not given you didn't come here until after 201 and can't communicate like an adult.
Did you see the state of Sepulcher before they nerfed it 15 times so people who don't play the game as a full time job had a chance?
Again, could you describe the exact mechanic and why you think it is difficult?
>having a weakaura for Gambit 1st boss
>having a weak aura for huntsmen dispel because healers cant see the ghost ( i know they're that fricking bad)
2 most recent examples I can think of. Granted, you don't NEED these to WIN if your goal is to win +5 keys and swim in dogshit loot for weeks and weeks, but if you push and you don't understand mechanics that you might not have even had time to realize because bosses die so fast in low keys, you're fricking over the group. and boy let me tell ya, that's a vast majority of the pugging scene this season. Not even because the remix dungeons, people are just bad.
>write a book to be the definitive stance on lore
>it gets retconned within months
And they made more books after the fact.
They literally wrote a book that outright laughs in the face of the Chronicle books, and they claim that the Titans are merely idiotic, narcissistic children.
Blizzard is destroying their own game for no real reason.
Blizzard didn't even have all of the Warcraft devs when WoW was made, much less when Chronicles were being written, much less now. On that note, it always boggles me when people roleplay as if the people who made decisions at Blizzard in 2000 are the same people this year.
The main idea is that Blizzard seems to have a policy, principle, or code that they follow. I'm talking about the fact that for some reason they seem to have a hard-set policy to never appease the fans which may have been created because of the Old Guard's behavior when some of them were playing Everquest and constantly berating, and demanding more from the developers.
An example of this policy in place today, Dracthyr's Soar racial ability being nerfed and the cooldown barely being reduced alongside it.
A big thing that people ignore about the Soar cooldown reduction is that they radically changed a separate racial ability which increased overall Flying speed by 20% on fully-explored continents.
They changed it from increasing flight speed to reducing the Soar racial from 4 minutes to 3 minutes on fully-explored continents.
Terrible in my opinion.
Are you saying this as someone who beat wow on the hardest difficulty? Who attained the highest ranks in pvp?
oh no, the schizo is back

That's what the file is called when you save it from the book it was in, 2016+ newbie. The image first showed up on Ganker the year you got here even.
That's the filename from wowwiki
Because they played it as children or manchildren
>order is closer to shadow
>disorder is closer to light
Am I a midwit for not understanding this? I don't even play wow.
Blizzard created a new map of the forces of the universe or whatever that negates that map. Ignore it.
It's just a lazy copy of other elemental rings with not a whole lot of thought put into it.
>Why is air next to decay?
>Why is order closer to shadow and fel to holy?
>Why is the shadowlands pointed at undead instead of the void?
Because their current lore doesn't really fit the elemental ring concept, but they just slapped it together anyway.
>best guild in WoW tried out XIVs latest Ultimate and had to give up
WoW is not hard. The players are carried by addons.
Did they ever give up on it being "blind" and just go for the kill with guides?
No they literally gave up and went back to WoW, they still haven't killed it.
Probably because it wasn’t fun
At least one of Echo's world first team quit WoW raiding because they've seen how the grass is greener
Your game isn’t fun, it’s playstation jank
Why are you getting offended and so defensive?
Because you suck, frankly
Are you 12?
Are you ever not going to look 12 you chip on the shoulder asian manlet incel?
Because it takes actual skill, instead of relying on addons doing 99% of the work for you. They didn't have fun because they are bad at the game and aren't used to having to actually play themselves.
>don't stand in bad
>stand in good
>move around the map
>sometimes move around the map with other people
>sometimes move around the map at specific times
XIV is no more difficult than WoW or other MMOs.
See
Then why couldn't the best WoW players clear the fight?
The difference is XIV is slow playing, has no pvp, a wretched combo system devoid of creativity and any variance at all. More people beat savage, as in a higher % of the player base but they will just move the goalpost and say that the game just attracts more pro players to slog through its chore of leveling and general gameplay for whatever reason. The final troony is immunized against all dangers, but call them a troony and watch how they are taken aback.
>inb4 they call wow a troony game even though XIV could paint the trans flag everywhere over night and these moronic snoys would still be praising it tomorrow
Addons literally do nothing, I don’t play with anything but meters.
Are you a world first mythic raider?
WoW is a game aimed and developed for the lowest skill of pc players. Ultracasuals which play game to chat, dress up and read copy pasted filler quest #200. Those people are beyond bronze levels of bad.
Thats why preforming simple actions such as just binding abilities properly or being able to press simplistic dps rotation while also maintaining situational awareness around the characters is a such awe inspiring feat for them.
They are literally buying carries to complete some super easy challenges a 10yo kid can do with ease.
>Death and order are opposites despite death being a result of order
>decay is the opposite of order despite being a result of order
>life and death being opposed when these two things are two sides of the same coin
>fire and spirit are opposites for.. some reason?
what a shit moronic fantasy world
