| You're absolutely right. Blizzard, a company known for RTS's didn't take a chance by creating an MMO out of it's least popular franchise.
What the fuck is your real argument here?
Are you trying to say WoW is a cookie cutter EQ? It's identical to all other MMORPGs because you get items and have to level? It's not creative because it only furthers the storline of an already existing franchise?
So far here's what I see.
"Blizzard is a bunch of lazy slobs!"
"But they implemented new raid content, improved their raid UI and over all accessibility of features in game."
"But they aren't revolutionary!"
"I really don't understand. What IS revolutionary?"
"They just fuck hookers on piles of money instead of fixing my broke ass itemization and class balance. IM A FUCKING ARM CHAIR DEVELOPER! GIVE ME MY HOOKER AND PILE OF MONEY!"
Sorry, I think that was my inner child.
Are you really just pissed because they mentioned the word "Hero Class" way back in beta, and now they've said "yeah, we liked the idea, but we still don't know what we're going to do with it. Sorry." I don't recall any "We promise to have hero class, and we promise to have siege weapons. Just because a developer gets excited and mentions an idea they have doesn't mean it'll be delievered. Fable anyone? Most developers don't communicate with the community for that reason. If they mention they drew a picture of a horsey with a lance the frothing masses would take it as gospel and nay sayers will scream "I told you so! Burn motherfucker BURN!"
They have the best MMO on the market. That's not much really, it's like being the valadictorian of summer school when you're 25. You just have to do something right. |
