The money gained from Vivendi Games to make World Of Warcraft was the downfall someday. A few years later after release, Activision bought out Vivendi. and the downfall of WoW slowly happened throughout Wrath. With a company that big, ya know for sure they pulled staff members out of the Blizzard group to put some of that "magic" into other Activision games.
...wtb starcraft version of TF2. I would freaking bloody love that, so long as they don't mess up the fluidity of aiming; the class utility will make itself.
If you could travel in time... Would you: #1: Go kill Hitler or Stalin... #2: Or would you go back and have a... "Friendly" little chat with the oldskool WoW dev team?
It will sound silly but real, but the downfall was Paladin in Horde and Shaman in Alliance. At this point Blizzard started to make things even to both factions/races standard, that led to lack of differentiation and originality of the game. Today we all look alike just ability names change.
5:08 Customization ? Sockets ? If you wanted more variation ? then revert the weapon normalization of late Vanilla instead of the meaningless sockets where 99.99 % of players use the exact same setup of sockets. God forsaken copy/paste game just 1 year after launch.
That's how you should talk to your customers instead of looking them in the eye and say: "You think you do, but you don't"
This is the Blizzard I want. A bunch of nerds coming together to make the best games they possibly could.
2023 and i agree
Those times are long gone.
The tech industry has been yassified by Karen HR reps

The execs need to watch this and realize this is what we want. We just want to be nerds with the devs.

This was the Blizzard I knew, not the one that bent its knee to china today.

If you could travel in time...
Would you:
#1: Go kill Hitler or Stalin...
#2: Or would you go back and have a... "Friendly" little chat with the oldskool WoW dev team?
IMO, I’d pick #2, except I’d warn Blizzard to refuse Activision’s offer.

Agreed. I think having those 2 as faction specific classes was fun.

Flying mounts were a mistake.

shame
1 year after Vanilla. Already plans to fuck the game to shit. GG
This is the Blizzard I choose to remember. Not the absolute shitshow that it has become.
