I recently discovered that MMO Champion has its own results from the Blizzard AMA, and this one has a lot more questions that were answered compared to Wowhead.
Sure, they still say there won’t be flying in 6.1. This is fine. Yet it seems they have “rewritten” the thing about how they want to focus on dungeons instead of the Garrison.
They’re saying this, to make me feel the Garrison is NOT being placed on the back burner in favor of dungeon/raid content.
It could be possible, as a response to my slightly pissed off tweet to @BlizzardDevs.
Basically, what started this… someone asked if there’s going to be any race-customized Garrisons. Like huts for Tauren, Gilnean housing for Worgen.. things like this. I personally would love to see this. It would give my Worgen chars a purpose to have the Garrison(to me).
They say on this one, they “thought this is a good idea”. An idea.. ok. Hold. This… “idea” was a feature that was going to be planned for the Garrison before the release of WoD. So, why say “we think this is a good idea”, when it was their idea from the start? Or maybe I read it wrong.
Anyway, they say to make 13 separate Garrison structures for each tier and playable race, would take way too long, and they wouldn’t be able to focus on content for the core players(the dungeoneers/raiders).
THIS is what they meant. They had no intention on not working on Garrisons. They never meant it as a way to piss me off.
Also, a new question showed up that wasn’t on Wowhead.
The person asked, if we’re going to see a Tier 4 Garrison soon. Now, I had thought with this whole “they’re throwing Garrisons on the back burner” thing, meant I was never going to see player housing.
Well… Blizzard answered with a positive note. They said there might be a Tier 4… just not in 6.1. It might be in 6.2. Again, they emphasis on ‘might’.
Finally, a last question. Someone asked how will the Garrison fare for future expansions. A lot of people questioned this.
Blizzard’s answer, they seem to have somewhat of a handle on the situation. They say they have ideas of how they could work future expansions around the Garrison. And it might even involve ‘Garrison 2.0’.
Though, my question about if Apexis Gear will ever be a full set, no one ever asked this. I still feel like kicking myself in the ass for not making this my primary question, when the Q&A rolled around the day before the release.
I do have a chance to get that question answered, once again. There’s now a thing on that page, that FatbossTV(the Youtube channel) will be asking questions to a few of the Blizzard Devs. And to click on this link if you want your questions answered.
It’ll be tomorrow when it’s done. Doesn’t show the time, though. But it got me to make a quick account to post my question, as it seems they’re ignoring it through Twitter.
I also asked if it’s possible to replace the Tier 3 Inn achievement to something less punishing. I also subbed to FatbossTV on Youtube.
