Litteraly my only issue with the delay is when it was announced.
Blizzard also conveniently timed some kind of WoW patch for ESO expansion release day I believe.
Heavensward: MSQ was great! – Alliance raid Story = was good! – Raid story = was great! – Relic story = less then good!
Stormblood MSQ was good – Alliance raid Story = was great! – Raid story = was great! – Relic story = good (that is only what I heard because I didn't do it because I have played FFXI years ago and didnt want to go back there anymore) (I was afraid that I will get hooked again in FFXI)
yes, they release things to compite with other games, nothing new here, but to be honest.. you can do all mage tower challenges in less than 2 hours, its just 7 scenarios super easy, they cant compite vs FF and i dont even play FF, it is an expansion vs 7 solo scenarios, even if you suck at the game its going to be 3-4hs gameplay
Btw, the timewalking which is tied to the magetower, is on a set schedule, the timewalking is one expansion at a time, in the order they came out. So unless blizzard predicted the endwalker release when they released timewalking… I dont think they planned it like that.
I do think they tried to get the patch out before that timewalking week however…
None that i know of ppl that still play wow is interested in the magetower anyway, because they already did that content 5 years ago… The delay between the .5 patch and the magetower opening is the end of the month timewalking event, happening after last months wod timewalking event.
But i do know, that blizzard has done such shit before… So it is possible that it is targeting endwalker… But i think blizzard would be fucking stupid if they think a .5 patch can contend with an entire expansion and would be really delusional of them.
Personally i think they are just trying to put in easy stuff they could implement into the patch to ease some of the playerbase. (Eg, they are in panicmode) and give the players stuff they have asked for years. (Think ppl were asking for legion timewalking back in bfa) thats also why they are planning on making a pvp brawl that will act as a test for a potential soloqueue arena. (Something that has been asked by the pvp community for ages)
Idk, ill wait and hear what 10.0 is like (after its release) and if its not bloated with systems and retention shit, ill check it out. But until then, ill just play ff14 and chill… Along with other games ofc.
Edit: the season of mastery however, is prob targeted at endwalker. Have a friend who is a "classic andy" (without the toxicity, miracuously) and he is pretty hyped for it.
And i have finaly convinced him to try ff14 once hes done the ironman challange in season of mastery. (He likes story games, and he has a ps4, and ive even said that… He and his wife could play it together, cus of the trial (she is more used to console games, my friend getting her into stuff like the witcher games and rdr2))
Edit2: i havent been into the game, so cant check the calendar, but if the timewalking week is moved (delayed or faster than the set schedule) then it def was targeting endwalker.
Blizzard met their match with SQE
Blizzard is known for rushing shit out to conflict with other companies.
Square is known to delay shit to prevent it…
That would leave blizz with broken shit and square unaffected. blizzard wont win against square in a beta launch piss contest
my problem with politics in games: devs/company projecting their perverted manners into everyone, acting like the big moral people when they are the worst, just like Disney, Marvel, hollywood actors,
they are a cancer in entertainment
the raid is decent, sylvanas fight is so fking boring, 12/13 mins of falling sleep
Naah
Political stuff is fine.
Wokeness is straight up bullshit.
Blizzard is hostile to players, other games and fun in general and wonder why everyone hate them.
Yoshida knew my birthday was Dec. 11th xD jk, I'm happy for the delay. Also I'm glad Zack looks like he's doing better, and he has people there for him.
WoW isnt really forcing politics into the game, its forcing PR into the game so Blizzard doesnt look as bad as it really is
As far as being off for endwalker, I'm not mad since I'll still be off work at least. Anytime off work is a good time
I still remember diablo 3 and I still remember that being the turning point with me pre ordering blizzard games
