And why can't they? I am sick of just accepting what we get in this game, and the quality going down. I will keep asking, and expecting for more.
Well ... saw todays presentation and its makes me sad :(
I'ts possible that for Devs , Covid complication is laziness and being out of touch ? Got feeling like SE and Blizzard suffering from it .
Oceanic. Aussie.
They got their own servers, then pissed and moaned about the real-time day/night cycle. The community is never happy.
It's because they're region sharing with NA, cross realm party etc with NA, and it'd cause issues. You spend all your time in areas that don't have daylight anyway (entire expansion, dungeons, raids) that it doesn't really matter.
I quit WoW after WotLK and while I went back a few times specifically Cataclysm and Mists of Panderia there were brief and the whole experience felt very hollow. Since that time I have never gone back again.
Definitely early WoW are some of my most memorable experiences I had a lot of fun so whatever.
GW2's mount system is not just unlimited flying in 3 dimensions like your bog standard MMO flying. GW2's Griffon has you press spacebar to flap your wings, which uses up your mount's energy. Diving has you gain momentum, flying forward loses momentum, and flying straight up means that you lose momentum very quickly. It takes skill to be able to maintain height and travel long distances with the Griffon. WoW's dragon riding seems to be imitating this. Such as setup requires responsive netcode, which FFXIV and its input delay does not have.
The WoW presentation? I thought it was actually really good. The biggest issue is Blizz never has an issue with releasing expansions, it's issues it releasing patches afterwards.
And no WoW adding housing would have no affect if I were to play it or not. If it were added though I doubt it would be as terrible as FFXIV's housing, it takes true effort to make a housing system that bad from that start and progressively make it worst over time. WoW if added, would make it instanced, and never add anything to it again.

The day night cycle was changed in 2016, TWO YEARS after the launch of the OCE servers, which started in 2014. i was there.
No it isnt, and its already been stated as to why they did this. We had crossrealm for the two years prev with zero issues. They broke it deliberately to keep their American customers happy.Quote:

It matters a great deal to many people, myself included.Quote:

This is what we saw in WOW all the time. Every day.

Anyone happen to browse and is curious by not reading 10 pages:
Presentation was today. No, they will not be adding housing.
WoW? no
other games? probably, yes; but way ahead of you there atm tbh
if the only thing for me to do is basically log in once a week and clear the alliance raid its not really worth it, so i'm basically done with this game outside of looking at the forums on my phone. the only reason id even consider logging in is if very specific people need me for something; and ill probably cancel my sub once it's clear those people are also done with the game until they unfuck housing
edit: i know i have to pay for a sub, but i can save 11 bucks every 2 month and take up space, without making any other purchases or contribute anything else, i guess?
or if people think the lottery system is ideal, i could just unsub entirely and let my house rot after 45 days, in which the crummy small i have that nobody probably wants anyway will demo and be lost to FC housing so no one can have it regardless lmao. its not like ill need it to bid on larges that become available
or they can admit their vision is stupid and just add instanced homesteads with exteriors and interiors that are functionally isolated plots in an inaccessible backdrop
housing is actually alot of fun, its not as simple as "theres a new housing item, i put it somewhere and log out" because you can make alot of crazy weird rooms using mashes of furniture. it doesnt sound like you really care about it at all, so go look it up.
housing in smalls and apartments suck because of the low placeables limit. its only a small facet youre missing if all you care about is gardening lol
