In a perfect world you could have a million classes that were all equally viable yet different and compelling, but this is not a perfect world. |
Were taking about concepts here, not what a shitty game VG was, bro. The 5% bullshit is only going to pertain to the leet min-maxers and catasses which will find some shit to min-max no matter how perfectly balanced system you have. in a regular day to day grouping situation that 5% less healing which is offset by some buff, simply a run buff or better DS is enough to look balanced in any normal persons eyes.
At least in VG you knew that if you got a Blood Mage or a Shaman he would heal, because guess what, he is a healer. In WoW you invite a priest or a fucking Shaman and you dont know WTF youre getting. Well 9 times out of 10 your gonna get a shadow priest or Enh shaman, because, guess what, they are more fun to play.
