- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 เม.ย. 2016
- turns out the makers of world of warcraft, blizzard and activision, have decided to shut down the private wow server NOSTRALRIUS. Francis finally found out and tries to explain to the developers of world of warcraft why no one wants to play wow any more and would rather play on a warcraft private server.

Changes characters butt pose over one message but years of begging for a vanilla server and nothing. Nice to see where your allegiances lie Blizzard.
+Eli Mundy a lot more work goes into creating and maintaining a vanilla server compared to changing a character's art. Still though, I think Blizz is missing a huge opportunity not having vanilla servers up for those who want them. Who cares if returning numbers go to a vanilla server or the latest expac, all the money would end up in the same pocket. I would love to re-visit some pre-Cata zones every now and again.
ikr
belad0nna The response time is the main point of my comment. Almost instantly compared to years of asking. I personally dont play WoW but I'd be pissed if they took down something that functioned but didnt offer a solution. Especially when they wont cooperate with the consumers who aren't complaining about Tracer's butt
+Eli Mundy True, and that is a fair point. The Tracer's butt thing is a whole other convo IMO, but on the other hand Blizz have been shutting down private servers for years. This isn't the first time, and to be fair they ARE within their legal rights to do so. Still, the fact that those private servers exist should have been a wake-up call to Blizz a LONG time ago. You can 'time-shift' one zone already to go back to pre-Cata version. Maybe they'll finally see the demand would be worth it.
+Eli Mundy Changing a pose? A 1 minute job. Offering an entire specialized, maintained server? A bit more difficult, I gut your point though.
This one felt more like boogie speaking his mind than Francis.
yea, pretty shitty
+Hella Snake lol ya the recent francis ones are just boogie with a forced francis voice over
It was an observation, not a complaint.
+Hella Snake Maybe Francis isn't a character he plays, but it's the other way around.
+Hella Snake yeah, he tried to make francis rage, but deep down, its his true opinion that its coming out
It wasn't another game that killed WoW. It was Blizzard itself.
+Garrett M Actually I think it was Actishittion that killed wow
+Wesuwius ye it's sad i mean look at the game when was only blizzard best mmo i ever played :(
+Garrett M Said that for years. It was the only way it could happen.
Just be happy you had the original game you create something that great then talk shit
+Porbo would you like your favorite game to turn to shit because the company doesn't listen to their players and just want to profit and watch "something that great" turn to shit? hell im not even much of a fan of WOW and even i have to say it was a bad business plan to do all the crap they have done to the game just for money
Blizzard said they care about their community. They think they do, but they don't.
+mikee paz They do, that's why there's no need for Classic WoW. Majority of the community wants WoD WoW.
+Mattern Are you? Everyone saying Classic WoW is what majority of players want is mentally disturbed.
***** Internett troll detected.
+Kurgath Nos pvp server alone had more players than 85% of the servers for live. A lot ofwow servers have 2-300 active players at best, why you think they made connected realms? Nos also just happened to be the most popular vanilla server and made no profit. There are literally hundreds of private servers ranging from vanilla to warlords with more than few making pure bank with item malls and premium accounts. Why arent they shut down? They've been running for years with populations running in the thousands.
+mikee paz They are very very passionate..... about that one person who didn't like a Tracer pose
It's not my fault, I like MONEY.
agreed
plz add arena in hots
lel'd
+Blizzard But if you continue to fuck around with people that give you that money you wont make some anymore.
Trinity do you know thats hes fake
Sounds like Runescape except Jagex actually listened to it's players and came out with a old school version of the game that so many people were hoping for. Blizzard are a bunch of noobs. The customer is always right.
They put the server back up blizzard was busy fixing stuff on there game at the moment there not "Noobs"
+Uppy FilmMakers they also made it the game they were hoping 4 up too
+Stingernukegod The customer is NOT always right. WoW is the way it is now because half the customer base prefers it to be an easier, more streamlined experience. Hell if it weren't for the shitty fucking garrisons and lack of endgame content I'd have ZERO problems with Warlords, because again, without the garrisons it's actually a really good expansion. If they had spent more time fleshing out an endgame rather than just leaving it to 3 raids that unlocked one after another in quick succession, it could've been GREAT. Definitely better than Cata, anyway.
+VladiMatt If you like it the way it is now that's fine and no one is knocking you for it (though I have been known to throw a few sarcastic/playful jabs at casuals over the years). Some of us however want a game with old school MMO sensibilities. Things like no group finder, hard raids that only the top .5% can actually complete, needing different gear sets for different encounters, harsh death penalties, etc, etc. We are not saying you have to want these things we are saying we enjoy them and want them so what is wrong with providing us a place to enjoy provided there are enough of us willing to sub to make up for the cost cost of the server? There are more of us who want this type of thing than you might think.
+Gorith not to mention the skill tree wherenyou can add 1-2% extra dmg or change to prpc something that might be pointless but the options there for you to experiment with and tinker might be trash but that was part of learning the game an made it difficult till you tried something else... memories of a destro/affi lock.
"Piracy is almost always a service problem"
-Gabe Newell
Thanks for quoting me
A few people are offended by a character pose and they change it - Over a million people want vanilla servers and they threaten legal action. Has Blizzard become the next EA? Fuck me...
blame it on Activision
+weirdyoda04 They wont give a fuck because it's Activision, the same company recycling CoD each year.
WOTLK was my favorite expansion and when cata came out it went down from there for me
+The Classic Gamer So true
+boogie2988 Now can you make a serious video on this please. I'd like you to explain why it was inevitable...
+The Classic Gamer completely agree, i quit once Cata came out
+The Classic Gamer Same for most of us I think, Jontron nailed it with the subscription graph.
I loved wrath
when francis goes "i i i i i i i" I lose it every time lol
same
Lose it? Lose your load? Please be specific does it turn you on or make you laugh?
Sincerely,
concerned youtube viewer
+Blake H i was gunna make them capitals but then i rememberer how 80 percent of the worlds population is retarded and would probably mistake them for lowercase L's
+Grant Davey grant is jelos
At what minute is that
This actually makes me really sad, because all people really want to do is just go back and play the game they love.
Same
Blizzard needs to go by Jagex's example.
1. Realize your current game is trash.
2. Make Old School Servers.
When WORLD OF WARCRAFT started Francis's beard had no grey in it. Truth.
Haha. Hey Matt.
Blizzard doesn't care about thousands of fans wanting legacy servers.
But..
Blizzard does care about 1 guy who doesn't like Tracers butt.
Did you see the new pose? Blizzard fucking trolled the guy really hard. Gotta love Blizztrolls
Tigerre Lell'shoran Sure, butt still.
Mongis Lort As a serious thing: Blizzard probably has extremely good reasons for not creating legacy servers, and shutting down Nostalrius at what is likely a month or so off legion beta is a tactical thing from them
Tigerre Lell'shoran Yeah, because we who enjoyed the old game are just soooooo hyped for jumping around with wings and get legendaries through quests...
Mongis Lort Legendaries are loot drops. Artifacts are going to be fucking awesome. And my understanding is Demon Hunters have been requested pretty much since the beginning
I got bored with WOW... have all the lastest expansions... got sick of standing in my Garrison. I would pay money to play vanilla.
Kronos WoW.
get a life, a gf, dude lel w8 is that u @ the thumb? okay get wow :D
nostalrius is back
feather s got any ideas on what server to play while waiting for nost?
Elysium is the spiritual successor to Nostalrius, they will be importing people's frozen characters to Nostalrius Returns(or whatever they plan on naming it) from Elysium, though sadly only characters made before 6/11/2016 will be imported. But yea, if you want just a taste of vanilla WoW, head to Elysium.
"they drove the game into the ground" You're goddamn right they did lol
I don't even care if Blizzard implements their own Vanilla servers or not. If they don't want to, they don't have to. But for fucks sake, let us play vanilla on our private servers if you aren't gonna let us play it on yours.
Blizzard listens to a guy who thinks that Tracer is too sexy, but not their dedicated fan audience?? -_-
"You think you do, but you don't."
+jekblom123 i remember that
+jekblom123 i remember that
They think we don't, but we do.
+jekblom123 "You think it be like it is, but it don't." ~ Blizzard 2016
That comment was the reason why I decided to never support Blizzard ever again. Absolutely disgusting disrespect towards their fanbase.
The Lich King died, WoW died with him.
The Lich King is not dead.
Wow neither I think
Oldschool Runescape players wanted the older version of the game and asked Jagex for it. Jagex listened and gave the older players their version while continuing to update the new one. Oldschool runescape pretty much saved Jagex. Jagex is smart. Be like Jagex, Blizzard.
i hate rs for looking like shit even their so called new and improved client. but that move was intelligent and we must commend them for it.
Old school runescape has just as much, if not more PAYING players than runescape 3
Nicholas Toscano My friend who plays rs told me that the gold botters bought jagex. so having a ton of accounts logged in doesn't mean as much as it used to.
Boogie what do you think about JonTron's video?
+boogie2988 must admit it feels extremely good to watch francis be an avatar for our collective rage. My heart longs for 2005.
+boogie2988 boogie can you do q&a videos?

Even RuneScape gave the community Old School.
+Roswell Crash And a fuckton of people came back to play it.
+Roswell Crash and even oldschool runescape had a poll where the COMMUNITY DECIDES what they want in the game and what they dont want in the game.
+Roswell Crash Weren't you roasted on Papu Franku's video?
+Roswell Crash I love OSRS
+Nivag38 would hardly call it a roast, but yes I was very proud of that moment lol and he messaged me about it we had a good laugh 😂
I have a feeling Blizzard is saving opening up a Vanilla server for a last resort money grab option.
Then they will go all out acting like it was there big idea and bs like that.
I couldn't agree more.
I've never seen such a strong outcry in the WoW community before. And hell, it's not even the WoW community! It's a Vanilla private server that created such strong bonds between its players in a little over a year. No advertising, no big companies involved, but just a bunch of passionate WoW players spreading their love of the game through word of mouth to grow the server. It just goes to show how far things have changed since Vanilla WoW. Personally I'm no longer supporting Blizzard as a company because of what they've done. It's a lot bigger than just shutting down a private server; they're spitting in the faces of hundreds of thousands of people who just want to enjoy the game that Blizzard created. We've been asking for legacy realms for years and they've denied us, then when the community makes one for themselves, Blizzard shuts it down once it starts becoming popular, proving their "You think you want that, but you don't" comments to be wrong. I used to love Blizzard as a company, I've bought all their games since 2005, but they've changed too much and have lost a customer in me until they change their attitude towards their fans. #Youthinkyoudobutyoudont
Valued input. #youthinkyoudobutyoudont
Current blizz devs just butthurt people would rather play the 2004 version than the dogshit they come up with today.
i remember when Blizzard used to care, but like all things that raise to fame they care less when they are big.
They won't be so big if they keep ignoring their fans
Yes, but now they're called Activision-blizzard, last time I checked they were owned by the French company Vivendi, long time ago though.
Blizzard-Activision stocks are also in a all time low i wonder why.
150K Active players and blizzard still can't take the hint that people want vanilla servers. That would be over $2mil a month for them.
+hk4124 They know they want it, and they have reasonably addressed it SEVERAL times. It wouldn't be worth it. 2 million is a lot to us, but not to them. They'd probably lose money on maintaining the servers and it would take away from development of the current live version. I see no problem with them shutting the server down, with that being said I play neither of them currently so I have no stake in either.
+hk4124 But they said we don't want classic servers.
They surely know what we want.
Daniel DeFrancesco servers are not terribly expensive it would not cost them anywhere near 2 mil a month to run a few and the fact that they are losing more and more subs every day should show them that the live game is not going to stay afloat much longer. This is a mark of just another company that dose not give a shit about its fans.
+Daniel DeFrancesco You really think that the people on nostalrius were the only ones who want legacy servers? Dream on.
Hell, even Jagex put up an Old School RuneScape server. I don't know what the fuck Blizzard is doing.
+John McLellan Well..
*A:* They don't really care.
*B:* It's Activision Blizzard now. It's not really their choice.
Blizzard aren't allowed to care about their customers anymore. It's all profit, profit, profit now.
People say WotlK was the best but for me nothing came remotely close to Vanilla. It was pure magic
He sounds like Shelly Marsh from South Park.
But like 5 years old.
+IWillSexU KEK
IWillSexU i thought it was sort of like Spongebob
You know shit's serious when even boogie almost breaks out of character during the video.
YOU DUN FUCKED UP, BLIZZARD.
Butt pose? Vanilla shutdown and now we know that legion will be EXACTLY as warlords of draenor? ... Blizzard, if you have a heart behind that thick shell you call activision, you will begin listening to the community again ..
Francis, you don't want to play Vanilla WoW. You think you do, but you don't.
+FratinandMadrik exactly, vanilla community and immersion was better, but raiding, gameplay, balancing was shit
+Richard Earle Over 100,000,000 accounts have been created on OG wow. Crushes them in comparison, just sayin'
Chris C Difference is, that Nostalrius was a private server, that lasted for just about a year... Retail is the real deal, and yes, throughout 12 years more than a hundred million accounts have been created, but if almost a million players are willing to break Blizzards TOS just to play Vanilla, there's definately an audience for it.
FratinandMadrik The accounts where also free vs paid. How many would be willing to pay for it? Sure, there would be some but would it be enough to cover the server? EQ tried this and the server died off after a couple years because of neverending content drought. That is THE reason blizzard isn't doing it.
Chris C I mean, the live servers are dying due to content drought as well. So on that level the servers wouldn't be that different.
Everyone is moving to Kronos I guess...
+Thorin Rorikson Yep.
+Thorin Rorikson Right you are.
+Thorin Rorikson Nah, PlayTBC
SneakyOink m8 PlayTBC isn't pertinent for people who want to play vanilla.
+Thorin Rorikson But my question is .. is it really worth? I stand behind the petition and I believe that it can actually move something. So I don't want to spend my time leveling another 60, if blizzard decides to make something happen.
My wallet is ready to open when Blizzard offers an official Vanilla server.
"Some of us just want to go home." -- Best quote about Nost I've heard. Ever.
#YouThinkYouDoButYouDont
For Nost refugees and those interested in trying a vanilla server...Kronos has a thriving community and many new players coming to it. It is also hosted in a country that the Blizz lawyers can do nothing about.
+kooken58 where is it hosted cuz i do like to have at least a decent ms not 200 or more , i cant deal with lag that's why i'm asking.
+Chill I believe in the Czech Republic
Chill It is in Sweden. I am on the west coast of the US, about as far from the server as you can get, probably excluding Hawaii or Australia, and I get 180-200ms. The delay is barely noticeable.
That's pretty good, ty for the info.
+kooken58 what state are you located in? I ask to get an estimate of how much MS i would have.
Boycott Blizzard/Activision, I have been saying it for YEARS! There is no other way, and we have to make this real.
I can't believe the downfall of Nostalrius echoed so far and wide. MAKE US HEARD!
I'm so proud right now.
I completely agree with this. Blizzard just fucks shit up. After all, they are owned by the guys that produce Call of Duty.
that server was non profit and never asked for a penny, they spent money not made money, but blizz fucks...
I miss the old days of vanilla wow, but at this point I will never play wow of any kind ever again.
"You think you do, but you don't"
Runescape has legacy servers and they roll in the cash
+Mod Mark unban me ididnt even bot
They made 2004 wow for 400,000 people. 800,000 people were wanting to pay to play it in 2016. That's double the target audience. How dumb is this?
Maybe we should tell Blizzard that it's sexist to close Nostralrius and then they should put it back up and even fund it themselves! Because it seems like blizzard would rather listen to a single SJW instead of an army of fans!
Ok I've never said this before after all these years, but after WoD and seeing that they are bringind their fucking facebook system to Legion too, I just have to join the group - WoW is dead, and Blizzard killed it.
That moment francis gets so mad he turns into sponge bob 2:02
Bring legacy servers back! Sign here
www.change.org/p/mike-morhaime-legacy-server-among-world-of-warcraft-community
I don't even play WoW and I think it's bullshit taking down the server :/
I asked Blizzard once why they won't bring back Vanilla servers, their response was "We simply can't bring back Vanilla servers because we would have to rebuild the game from scratch, we don't just have the code lying around the office" YET A BUNCH OF PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT EVEN GETTING PAID CAN DO IT......K.
You think you do... but you don't.
"You think you do but you don't".
It's like Blizzard shut down a living history museum devoted to the love of the game... If Final Fantasy and Runescape can endorse or create these retro servers, why can't Blizzard? Are they so blinded by their need for profits that they can't acknowledge the desire for the game to back to its roots, the roots that made WoW into one of the most popular games of all time? Blizz needs to make a game that caters to the needs of their customer base instead of telling us how we should play it.
"nobody wants to make mmo's any more - not even you!" - Solid Gold line right there - nice one Francis!
Hello @Blizzard, you better be fucking listening to this you pricks! You ruined the best game I have ever played!
+Vicente Martínez Gómez You just grew out of it. It may seem hard to understand, but ten years of one game doesn't lead to tons of fun. Other people enjoy the game in the same way you used to.
This isn't Francis, this is boogies opinion.
Remember when Blizzard was cool? I do. /gently pet his Diablo 1 cd-rom.
+Andrea Piccolo there is no more blizzard its called activision
My home was Ironforge and Dalaran, not my garrison
+MyViolador Precisely what is stopping you from continuing to hang out in IF and Dal? Nothing. Theres zero reason to idle in your garrison. They even gave you a separate hearth for it. Idle in your favorite city, AH, Bank etc. Hearth back to reset your missions. Stop blaming garrisons for why city's are dead. Start blaming the shitty fucking players.
+Mortechai this commet cant be real 😂
even if u get out of ur garrison there will be noone in if or dal or any fucking anywhere..
I liked Burning Crusades and I thought Lich added some good things too. Then Cata happened and they done fucked it up since that point.
+NERD IT UP Yeah, Wrath of the Lich King was the last time I legit played the game nonstop.
+NERD IT UP Yess! I loved TBC. i wish theyd backtrack it. sigh cata was the beginning of the end
totally agree
NERD IT UP yeah and now you play lol
Blizzard mad because Nost had more players.
After seeing what diablo 3 has become my future blizzard purchases look bleak.
+jamie30701 Let's just hope those rumors about Diablo 2 remake are real :P
Diablo 3 will be never as good as it's predecessor, but its in a much better state than when it first came on.
What I find interesting is back in 2004 WoW had 150k players in its first year.. imagine that Nostralrius also had 150k players active in its first year... I feel many have missed this very valuable point.
"You think you do, but you don't" -Blizzard
I do hope you'd make a serious video about this. Would love to hear your opinion.
+StringStorm this is serieus every streamer youtuber reacts like that about this topic they'reextreemly mad #Fblizzard ... this is the real francis being mad trust tru
It's obvious Blizzard has no idea what it's doing. They create this hardcore following, ruin it by fucking up their game, and then try to keep a following by being as casual as possible (ie Hero's of the Storm) to appeal to as many people as possible. At least that's what they expected. Instead they've created a shit storm of well produced but extremely casual and lame games. Yay blizzard.
I quit playing wow just after the cataclysm pack came out. My reason was that wow wasn't wow anymore. I played wow from vanilla. There were a few cool things added by bc but wotlk fucked up a lot of shit. I kept playing because there was still some challenge. Cata hit and several things made me rage. First was that the few classes that could be played in different but effective ways got forced into cookie cutter molds. Most notably, in my opinion, was hunter. I had a beast mastery hunter that never oomed and specialized in group mob burn down. That got taken away over night when they changed the entire mechanic of hunters. Taking away mana and giving that fucking energy bar SCREWED HUNTERS! My damage potential dropped by around 250% over night. I wasn't the only person who mained with a hunter that got outraged. Our gear became less than worthless and it made us take specific gear sets made just for hunters so we could do something.
If that wasn't bad enough, they made it so a new player could get a high level toon. First party I got into the healer spammed their max healing spell and oomed within 10 seconds. The next group the tank had no idea how agro worked. I rage quit soon after and have never gone back. I know a few people who did go back but quit less than a month after. I would play on a vanilla or even a wotlk server. But no. I now play ff11 and am loving life. High challenge, great stories, customization for as far as the eye can see, crafting is rewarding, great community, mostly populated servers, continued updates and expansions that build off of the original game and not overhauling it, interesting mechanics, fantastic music, chocobos (that's an automatic win right there lol), and EPIC boss fights.
Francis seems to almost disappear a few times during this video, Almost as if his opinion hits home for boogie at times.
Francis for CEO of Bliazzard
I'd resub for a Vanilla, TBC and/or WoLK. Blizzard is so childish, being stubborn idiots in not giving it's customers what they want. Just like flying in WoD: WE KNOW WHAT WE WANT AND AFTER WOD IT'S CLEAR YOU DO NOT, BLIZZARD!
+Chris Stark Screw flying. Wasn't even close to being the main problem with WoD.
Brett Davis It was a problem though. It made arch/gathering mats outside your garrison annoying and just further incentivized people to stay in their Garrison. I'm against flying typically. But in a shit expac like WoD you need it once you hit max level. Leveling without it is a great idea. But once you hit 100 you should have the option to explore by flight. (And yes I know that flying in itself sort of separates the community.)
Chris Stark Vanilla doesn't have flying and it's not "too annoying" to do; tons of people were doing it. New WoW can keep flying, I don't really care. It's a lost cause. As far as I'm concerned, flying is just one more thing that later iterations of WoW did that ruined the game.
Brett Davis I knew you were going to mention this next and I almost wanted to just put these two point up for when you did:
1.) Yes adding flying was a mistake that separated the community (see last point in my last comment).
2.) However now that it has been implemented it can't be taken out because the player base will have people that favor flying and taking away flying would cause the backlash the forced Blizzard to change their position on flying in Draenor.
If I had a sub I could show you my account hasn't bought flying despite existing since TBC. That being said I agree. WoW is too far gone to be saved. Hence why Legacy servers are so sought after.
Chris Stark Yeaaah, agreed.
I think what the people at Blizzard don't understand is that when I cancelled my WoW subscription, I cancelled ever giving them another cent for any of their other games too, because I felt so betrayed after a decade of being a loyal customer. Warlords of Draenor was the worst fucking expansion. At least in Panda land I was still having fun, even though I didn't raid, and didn't do dungeons anymore.
Overwatch is going to be a complete bomb. I won't even play their free shit, like Hearthstone; I'd rather have empty hard drive space, than play a game of Hearthstone. Nova Missions? Give me a fucking break, that's just DLC they are packaging as a stand-alone product.
What I would find interesting is people not wanting to give up their WoW account, but not wanting to buy the Legion expansion either. You know, people who want to quit, but can't quite bring themselves to do so because of some "goal" they set for themselves or because they consider it a harmless diversion, but don't want to shell out another 60 bucks, so they remain in Warlords and don't move on, and then finally quit. It will be interesting to watch the subscriber base splinter even more when Legion comes out - note that I didn't use the word "community" because that hasn't been there since Wrath ended.
The other thing that would amuse me is if, using our contact data, Blizzard started calling lapsed subscribers with robo-calls or actual salespeople to try to get you to resub for the low low price of whatever it will take to get you to resub. Maybe even offer you a free mount.
I would pay $15 p/m for a legacy
i canceled my retail subscription the same day i herd about them shutting down nostralrius
blizz had many oportunities to have vanilla servers and have people pay 15 bucks a month to play but they refuse so fuckem.
Exactly. Fuck them.
Boogie you should send this video to blizzard
I guess Blizzard's policy these days is hating money. They lose 5 Million subscribers, see a legacy server with 1 million subscribers, and decide to shut it down rather than integrate it.
For me, the moment Arthas died, World of Warcraft died. After that, game just went downhill.
+Nemanja Skoric Too true man. That's where it ended for me also.
low pop servers is probably the way to go, Nos got shut down for being too successful. Blizz couldn't have a highly populated vanilla server, it goes against their famous words "you think you do but you don't"
Blizz should have just make Vanilla WoW available as it's own thing on B.Net. It's been in high demand for the LOOOOONGEST time. They should have thought about doing that forever ago.
+Mimi Legend
You think you do,but you don't.-blizzard fucking entertainment...
They are idiots more than anything,and try to bullshit us.
the angrier he got, the more spongebob he became..
i need new pants from laughing my shit out
i was fine until I read this comment and now I'm dying
Hey Francis, thanks for the rage. The legacy server petition has now 200k signatures!
Honestly it would have been better if you didnt "hide" this rant behind Francis.
What Blizzard is doing is utter bullshit and does deserve a more serious approach.
Props to you for speaking about it at all though, much love
+Widgy How is shutting down something Illegal bullshit? They have every right to do so
Salty Pirate They have, though there is this magical word called "morale". If you wanna screw over your fans just for the sake of it then you might wanna revaluate your standing :)
I would re-sub for Vanilla
Ever since Blizzard sold out to Craptivison the company has never been the same.
They ruined their whole trilogy of games.
+tripleknockout 3 separate IPs is not a "trilogy"
Starcraft, Diablo and Warcraft
Besides their original starting games, LV, RnR, etc. or Overwatch what other games have they entirely focused on this past decade moron?
If you really wanna get technical you fuckheap, SC, WC, and Diablo are a trilogy in their own series. Yeah they never made 3 Starcrafts but there are 3 different versions of SC2.
Go back to kissing Blizzards ass, if you're not gonna help in anyway.
I'll be honest, I rather would have heard Boogie talk about this than Francis.
Twice now Blizzard has got themselves attention, neither of which for positive reasons. Welp, time to put No Such Thing as Bad Publicity to the test, I suppose.
+PsyCoCinematics lol it certainly isn't making me resubscribe, the MMO getting my money these days is ff14
***** Truthfully I haven't talked about Blizzard since WoD first released, so on one hand they got my attention. On the other, they screwed up PR both times, even if in their legal right. Doesn't make their stance a well received one, and as Beast commented, like hell this will get us to resub or buy another one of their games so I don't see it as a win, myself. Maybe to new folks who have never heard of em, but Old Blizz is gone and with it their ol' veteran players.
I fucking miss nost, it was just awesome to play on the whole way through. I don't care about easy and hard, I'm not a hardcore player, I just liked that it was fun and social. Honestly I think most of people's complains would disappear if people were still there in WoW. I remember when you would walk into org and you couldn't walk two feet without hitting another player, and that was fun. The only other places I've seen cities as empty as they are on retail is in very low population private servers, and that sucks.
As a hardcore GW2 player this is so sad :(
+Kimo Savage i was a Hardcore Gw1/2 player but that games dieing too Anet fucked up too Badly
after the spring update its so much better
only time will tell mate honestly
+Xzavier Ortiz Same, I was a loyal GW1 player since it came out, but GW2 is just not as good. It doesn't feel like an RPG and it's not terribly fun, especially by yourself.
+chris200830 If you ask me, they fucked it up with the specializations patch. The old build system felt waay more interesting and RPG like. Never played GW1, but honestly I heard some great things about the diversity in GW1.
Boogie you should start a boycott blizzard campaign. If we all unsub they would have no choice but to cave into the demand of the players.
Francis should be on south park.
has he?
His voice is golden
I see this everywhere, companies changing their products in order to squeeze more profit usually some form of micro transaction or some new way to make you spend more. It's all fucked!
Doesnt he look like the guy from southpark who played wow
Blizzard is the kid that owned the ball in primary school.
The answer is simple, don't play.
They'll eventually realise they weren't the chosen ones.
I miss my lock, fucking Blizz. Nos had an amazing community and now it's gone.
672 Activision employees were told to dislike this video.
+Foxy Fern I hope they will be rewarded with a cookie.
One girl bitches about an incredibly minor sexualization/taunt on Tracer, they bow down before her like a whipped dog
Thousands of users are happily enjoying a past model of their current product and that shit won't fly
How far you have fallen, Blizzard.
+Mike Hunts They specifically say, no private servers. They can't make an exception because it's "a past model". It's not under the company of Blizzard or Activision. Nostalrius' devs knew what they were risking when they made it.
I´ve been playing on a private server for years. Now we are on WOTLK expansion but also have a BTC realm. I would NEVER pay blizzard for all those fucked up expansions.
Blizzard has been complete TRASH for 8 years.
The greatness that was Blizzard ended sometime shortly after the release of Starcraft 2. Either way, milking the gaming community with subscription fees on an AMAZINGLY outdated game so they never have to make WoW 2 is probably the greediest thing happening in the gaming industry. Well... maybe second to EA.
I mean I'm gonna have to be more harsh on them than you. Overwatch, while fun, is insanely overrated. Heroes of the Storm is easily the WORST MOBA that has ever been made. The StarCraft 2 expansions were terrible. Also as boogie said, WoW has become worse and worse with each update. Diablo 3 was TERRIBLE at launch, and just barely enjoyable with Reaper of Souls, and even then it's STILL just more Diablo. The plain and simple fact: Blizzard hasn't broken ground, innovated, or had a single original thought in about 8 years. They were amazing in 1999 and the early 2000's, but now they are complete trash.
I wish we could choose where/how we want to play. I started playing in WOTLK and I loved it back then, but like you said, now all we do is stand around in a garrison :/
+Danaides We have to pay for each expansion of the game (or at the very least, the battle chest and the latest expansion). But we already damn well know that the Azeroth we are walking in now is Cata azeroth. Not vanilla.
Even though there have been "improvements" here and there, I want to go back to the barrens and find Mankrik's wife. And i think everyone would agree with that.
Very true, I wish I could explore vanilla WoW as I didn't play back then... But apparently Blizzard doesn't want that even if we would pay for it.. Sigh... T_T /sad
Francis = Eric Cartman all grown up.Haha!!Now if only we could find the others.
Boogie you should make a video really speaking about this as boogie. and talk about the petition. and link it and ask people to sign it. big things could happen for all of us!!
