    @Fraven85 2 года назад +521

    i dare say, this was a more painful punch to Blizzard's gut, than any they ever received from FFXIV's success. because it took nothing, but the sheer creativity of one dude. and he deserves every last bit of publicity this will get him.

    • @simonsalgueiro6217
      @simonsalgueiro6217 2 года назад +6

      This was more painful than FFXIV because FFXIV "success" was basically a trend, and numbers started going down fast in FFXIV after the "it's a wow killer" trend passed and people saw what FFXIV was really about. But this, this is a WoW player making a real point and showing how hiring people based on politics and fear of being signalled by very angry vocal communities in social media won't help on making a good story.

      I made the mistake of doing Stonetalon once as Alliance and avoided it for a dozen other characters. They send you there from Ashenvale but the Stonetalon quests are just way too scarce & spread out to be worth doing as Alliance. Stonetalon isn't so bad with epic mount but running it is ridiculous compared to other zones.

      I played Nelfs and never leveled there. I went from Darkshore to Ashenvale to Desolace.

Once I knew how to get to Stormwind from Darkshore, that's where I went instead.

    In the Halls of Flesh-Shaping, before you summon Durumu the Forgotten, a player can spy an unidentified blood elf female huddled under one of the beholder stones. I tried questioning blizzard about it and didn't get a response. When one investigates the 3D models for the zone she's just labled as "stone" and is linked to the statue. After the statues drop away, she vanishes along with them. It's also possible to use farsight to look outside of the walls in that zone and see the untextured cubes, so many unfinished things were left inside.

      I think the most memorable part about the zone was the cata rework, where they later admitted the guy who made the zone didn't properly coordinate with the rest of the crew and made garrosh way more badass and likeable than he was ever intended to be. That glimmer of hope sparked by that zone probably fueld more MoP/Horde/Garrosh discussions than any other zone of the rework.

    I hate stonetalon mountains, to this day. It was the point where you left the safety of the barrens. My first toon was on a PVP server, Andoral. And i forget the guild, but they had 2 guys camping the entrance to stonetalon, to one shot anyone leaving the barrens. But worse, they not only camped you, but had 2 other dudes stationed at the graveyard. I believe me and my friends literally gave up and rerolled on a different pvp server, with less DB's on it.

He has got a point tho Blizzard is extrmely lazy with its quest writing. Secret world did a much much better job on a shoe string budget.
