Occult thread

I tried to accept everything what I had to put up with. I waited patiently for the patches, Volvo time is Volvo time. I accepted the weird “ranked” system, and the fact that they does not even display it anywhere. But now I finally see the reason. It’s because it DOES FUCKING NOTHING.

I’m currently at rank 20 with (40 hours played since patch) winning the vast majority of my games, and then, I’m up against a lvl1 opponent. A guy who is literally playing his 2. game of his life, featuring Prellex, CM and J’Muy the useless in his deck. Versus a fully tweaked Tinker Agro.

Why the hell do I have to stomp the poor guy? How can we even play against each other? There is only one, very sad answer. There is no hidden mmr. There is no ranked system at all. It’s just a fluff. A number wich improves after every 2. win.

I feel like I’m in a mobile game, where all my rewards are a shining explosives and a meaningless counter. This is nothing else but Candy Crush Saga. Except, in Candy Crush, at last my Mum gets a notification that I reached a certain level. In Artifact, not even my friends would know it.

400 viewers on twitch, less than 1000 users active active on this sub most of the time, can artifact recover?
Serious question, can the game recover and what do you guys personally think valve needs to change?

Sisi is a implant of the world powers that are of “The Anti-Christ Matrix”. There is no human alive except Jesus Christ that can unravel the complexities of this evil.

…the problem is that it changes the group dynamics of the game. Whether it leads to better or worse results is sort of besides the point and as such I don’t really understand why people are framing the discussion in terms of results. Inasmuch as Classic WoW has any value it will be the degree to which it recreates the social atmosphere of the original game. Any mechanic change that effects this atmosphere should be viewed with skepticism regardless of whether it improves “quality of life” or whatever.

The irony is that these same sorts of arguments have played out over the last ten years, with the community inevitably demanding a smoother experience and improved outcomes at the cost of the original game’s complex community dynamic. I think you should be wary of any attempt to fiddle with mechanics like this, because it will only be the beginning.

And no, for you fallacy lovers, this is not a “slippery slope fallacy”. That would only be the case were there not a reasonable expectation of the pattern continuing, but given that we already have ten years of history in which the exact same thing happened it is completely reasonable to worry that Classic WoW will follow the same development pattern as WoW.

Edit: And big surprise…the most upvoted comment is some guy arguing that “loot trading” is “better”. Not terribly surprised that many of you missed the point.

Sisi? Don’t know him.

I was looking through the Vanilla patch notes in wow wiki and I noticed the amount of changes Quests got during the patch cycle.

Pretty much every single major patch except for 1.12 has a lot of Quest changes.

  • Fixing typos.
  • Changing drop rates.
  • Updating existing Quest chains.
  • Adding new Quests.
  • Revamping existing Quest hubs.
  • Adding completely new Quest hubs.

I haven’t seen anyone bring this up so far and I feel like we should start a discussion of some sort, since what we were shown at Blizzcon is that Blizzard are looking to go down the path of least resistance and do as little work as possible(loot trading, right click to report, 4 content stages, etc…).

To make matters more difficult, this also goes into the Progressive Itemization discussion we had with the introduction of the Epic Quests in 1.4 (Anathema/Benediction, Rhok’delar and the Onyxia Head Quest) and the Rare Class Quests in 1.7 and 1.8, of which some provide Pre Raid BIS Gear. The updated Dungeon sets also get a Quest pre Naxx, however, that was brought up in multiple discussions about the Suggested Content Release from Blizzard.

I don’t think we should make assumptions regarding such a huge part of the game, based on what they’ve said in the past, like using patch 1.12 as a baseline, or remarks regarding item databases they have lying around. Instead we should let them know what we feel like should be done on the matter, even if it delay the game a bit. I rather them do it right the first time, instead of giving us another unfinished game on release like Diablo 3 or Overwatch.

Am I wrong? Has this been discussed already?

I was tripping alone on new years eve. I only took one gel tab but I only had half a banana in the past 12 hours. The tabs were supposed to be 100ug and last time I took one it felt like 80ug.

Bit for whatever reason this trip felt like 150-200 ug. Anyway as yall probably know when you’re tripping way harder than you thought you would be its easy to panick. So things slowly started to go south until I randomly thought of this Chungus meme I keep seeing.

All of a sudden I was laughing my ass off saying chungus over and over.

Really reminded me how fragile we are on LSD.
