Been doing a few things in the beta today. Not going to list what. Anyway, got bored again. Made a list of what I should do while waiting ’till November.
It’s mainly to test solo the remaining Cata dungeons and raids that I can’t do on Live or the PTR. The other is to actually go into the PTR and check out the new Blasted Lands Pre-WoD questline.
And lastly, checking on Live if I can still solo UBRS and MC before they make them WoD content. I have a feeling they still are Level 90 soloable(even Level 80 I can do it). Just… what they said in BlizzCon last year worried me, how “you’ll have a sneak peek”, but I believe this won’t happen ’till nearing WoW’s 10th anniversary.
Going back to the point of this blog post, I went back to YouTube, and saw a video about “No flying confirmed in WoD”. It was four months ago(back in June). Curious, I watched it. And the guy was acting like …. we’re never going to be able to fly. Even when the 6.1.0 patch hits. One person in the comments mentioned how Blizzard ‘may’ add flying in 6.1.
Excuse me? May? MAY?! It’s bad enough that I won’t be able to fly when I hit Level 100(if I do decide to go on and preorder this October)…but the bastards thinking we don’t need flying even further than that?!?! I…URGH!!!
Look..I get what Blizzard is trying to do. They want to bring back old school WoW, when we couldn’t fly in Vanilla. Yet none of us even thought of this. I personally never did. Having a 100% epic ground mount was enough to get around, and it was fun to travel from zone to zone on foot.
Now… flying mounts are like a drug. Can’t stop taking it. Like how I was with WorldEdit in Minecraft. I see the advantages of flying mounts. Being able to fly over areas I don’t want to deal with. Go directly from Point A to Point B. Not having to worry about mountains in the way. It’s fun. It really is. And to have that fun taken away in Draenor, SUCKS!
I don’t fucking care about my world feeling alive! I’m a soloer! I fly alone! I don’t need a fucking Guild. I don’t need anyone! I’m anti-social and proud!
Yet you could ask “Then why play an MMO, if you like being alone? Play a Single Player game then.” I do my best not to think of this. The entire reason I even played WoW is I wanted to play something different. I was sick of TSO being so ‘2D’.
TSO; The Sims Online, was an MMO. Was the first ever Multiplayer game I played.
My point is, I don’t HAVE to play with friends. I can play my way(within the ToS) and Blizzard won’t bitch at me. And I’ve been doing this way for 8 years. Sure, I was in Guilds in the past, with the first one teaching me everything I know about the game.
.
I’m just going end it with this:
If Blizzard refuses to add flying in WoD, even after Patch 6.1… then that’s it. I’ll be done. They can kiss my subscriptions goodbye. Not like that’s going to scare them, but at least I won’t have to deal with their “this is supposed to be an MMO! Be social, damnit!” bullshit ever again.
If this is going to be their answer why they choose none of us being able to fly, and we can’t do shit about it, then… so be it. May it be the day that WoW dies, and all there will be left, are the World PvPers.
