I personally play SoD to relax / chill with friends and to escape from retail where I do CE raiding, now that they are intentionally making the difficulty harder, it has just completely made me not want to play this phase. If I wanted to play something challenging I’d just stay playing retail…
Fr. That's why I don't play retail anymore. Just classic wotlk
no battle shout challenge
I'm done WoW and mmos for good. I played wotlk classic and quit after Ulduar when i saw how toxic the parsing environment had become. SoD looked interesting but again it got infected with the same toxic parsing community. Even so i still had fun in phase 1. Phase 2 sucked and now phase 3 was the final nail in the coffin. I'm 32 and I've decided I'm not gonna spend the rest of whatever life i have left playing the same shit over and over again. I'm taking up a second job to make money so that i can go to college in fall and do something else with my life. I'll still play games casually but no more games that require me to be consistently logging in or risk falling behind. I'll always have great memories of the original Vanilla-Legion but I'm done with Blizzard, they no longer know how to make a good game.
same here. it's becoming a waste of time. better to farm RL content imo
I'm waiting for AI to be so good to just play something like Wow alone at my own pace with fake people. Mostly because I just want to pause at any time tbh
Parsing only exists because there's no in built MMR system to filter bad players who don't do mechanics and use a sub optimal rotation leading to low dps which drags the whole raid down.
i played wow on US servers and toxicity was so rare to me. i was just lucky. i felt that US servers are less toxic but appears i was just unlucky when i played on russian servers cuz they just kicked me out of LFG after i said something normal
@@timo4258 just play wow solocraft has ai bots you can use and play at ya own pace even in raids n bgs
The community has ruined Sod. If you aren't playing a meta class and have logs you will spend 30 minuntes BARE MINIMUM trying to even find a chance to TRY the content. Then you'll get impatient bastards that complain if you even wipe once and will threaten to drop group. Sod has basically become a discount buggy version of raid logging simulator :/
Dude i had to reroll 4 times. Was tired of getting interviewed just for a WC run.
The sad part is, it's all projection. I played warrior and rogue P2 and had pre-bis gear, spending 30 mins to join groups. By the time I got into a group, I was essentially always parsing top of the raid or damn near. It's literally just shitters who find their 2 button class so difficult they can't imagine anyone else being better than them and making enough of a difference on the dps.
Not to mention none of this matters because 10 below average players with patience will still easily clear gnomer, and probably ST too after nerfs.
This is only on the biggest servers tho. I play on a less populister, and its pretty chill. Most Ground run with casuals
I got denied for gnomer for DAYS then finally a chill group let me in and i laughed at how easy was the raid was. It's sad what the wow community has become.
Season of discovering if Asmongold can out dps the healer
The healer was the real MVP! Keeping everyone alive while dealing higher DPS than Asmond 😂
Thanks, we were pumping to keep alot of people alive that never did the fights.
It's already kind of ruined by logs, parses and addons. You literally cannot enter a raid without having logs. You can't log without being in a raid.
People say this every phase, and every phase people are completing the raid. I think you're the issue here.
@@MutedR you aren't going to be invited either way even if parse doesn't exist.... point being you are new
He’s kinda right, it’s gone too far. There’s hardly any dad guilds that fuck around and clear maybe 2-3 bosses. This game is dying because no new players stick around
@@jamilahsaisophon1997 the game is dying because its 100 years old and sucks
I started playing wow in december last year for the first time, I got into a raid EVERY SINGLE RESET after I hit 25. You must really suck or be really undergeared if you really cant get into a raid, sorry.
SoD from an outside perspective is proof that modern blizzard cannot make anything worth playing.
100% true
always been that way though, overwatch and diablo was accidental success they have now lost
Gnomergan music is the best I put it on when my friend goes to bed so he has some wacky dreams
Asmon not putting up battle shout for his teammates and not canceling the swing channel after finishing a pack is actually making me upset
It's his group is mainly casters so doesn't matter that much in the grand scheme of things
Blizzard does not respect your time
Oh yes, they do... because we are all watching.
@@DoctorKillamassaLOGSno they don’t
the phase came out on Thursday. I don't think you respect your own time
What do you mean? They just boosted everyone to 50 and gave them 10 times the gold
@@Dinkslayer681true true teehee
Nightmare incursions broke the matrix for me the same way Firelands dailies did in 2011. WoW just isn't fun, and it's obvious when the huge world shrinks down to 1 zone loops.
idk why they didnt make incursion just be daily, its so broken
@@hakun0695 they don't think things through and it comes out exploitative and broken. It's hilarious that the quest can be shared like 20 times and each quest gives 3 gold. Like holy hell they really fucked up with this one.
@@matrixcom69 true, and its still baffled me that they didnt changed it yet, and only nerf the gold lol
Saddest part is Incursions are probably the only thing people will do to level now but time will tell after all the rebalancing is done.
I knew instantly no kill incursions would be meta, I did one loop and called it. Dungeon spam is more fun😂
lol, the paladin didn't shout "leeeeroy jenkin" before jump was missed oppotunity
I thought the nightmare event was quite fitting because it is indeed a nightmare to be in Asheville lol
The rainbow generator Trinket was a quest from Felwood. Can't remember exactly when- but it was very early game. I remember doing it around the time I took a group to get the first cool pet- Sprite Darter. I kept it in my bank for years for use in Ironforge / SW. Later they turned it into a toy. Still have the original in my bank. Still have my Sprite Darter, too. Also with Lava Swimming - FR was a numbers and gear game. You can play the mechanics all you want, but there is definitely some number crunching to go along with it.
"Safe spot" in BRD- pillar shelf surrounded by lava and fire elementals LOL
Blud still pumping that level 25 axe
Cant believe this game still has a subscription fee 😂😂
God I haven't seen the inside of this dungeon in years
Asmongold play World of Warcraft, that's badass
can someone explain to me what season of discovery is? I'm a new player on classic wow but it seems there's a bunch of different types of this game?
This aint classic plus anymore this is retail light
as a masssive druid fan the nightmare stuff is what brought me to sod when it first got released the thought of going into the emerald dream and having new druid stuff to explore is really a Win even though some of the quests can be bugged by assholes and its not perfect they tried it and im satisficed hopefully they only improve it more
been saying this since phase 1 easy raids that allow for any combo of players is best easy mechanics like stay out of the fire interrupt are best most wow players like to pump and get gear thats it
this is a certified "you think you do, but you don't" moment. WoW community's greatest enemy is WoW community
I love seeing you raid man always fun to watch can't wait to see you raid Sunken Temple I'm sure alot of F bombs will be dropped lol it's going to be epic.
Asmongold to all casters: Cruel irony. Like my dependence on you.
My favorite part is having people doing repeatable quests, making 1000s of gold off a new phase event, and bursting to level to 50 in a few hours the first day.
damn, didnt expect asmon to kill larry fink
The art, the music, the icons, the voicelines, the feeling of Azeroth... this was all made by people long gone. I don't even have time to waste watching a video about this game or this company.
Please. There are games that exist which are actually good. I promise.
End your sub. Uninstall the launcher. Move on from a corpse. Remove your payment methods. Be happy.
LMFAO This title did NOT surprise me at all. But god editors thank you for the laugh. Salute your service 🫡
11:47 asmon had me LMFAO man XD
from time to time i come back every new expansion or now update. and with retail for a returning player its just overwelming with so many spells.
They fucked up season 3 already this is where everyone stops playing sad but true
Its already getting nerfed I think you just need to go outside my man
Agreed. I just unsubbed and uninstalled. I've decided to take up a second job and grind more money so i can go to college in fall and do something else with my life. Tired of wasting time doing repetitive content and standing around cities getting denied by groups who want 95 parses for every raid.
@@Pacifica_909don't go to college it's a waste of money. Learn something new using RUclips/chatgpt and build your network up, unless you plan on being an engineer/scientist/doctor.
Not particular saying Blizzard are saints but every time they try anything, there are neckbeards like this guy who MUST complain melodramatically about how they "fucked up" everything. It's just a video game dude, no one fucks up anything, it's not an abusive relationship that you need the police to file a restraining order to protect you from.
@@Pacifica_909
I think they mostly just want people who have around 50 because we took someone 15 parse healer, absolutely had to carry him so hard it was insane, now we make sure people atleast parse 30 or no parses recoreded because jesus christ he was a detriment to the raid lol
2:21 I started playing WOW when HC officially released. Obviously I knew about the game but just never tried it. Was always a high risk pvp type of gamer…. But now I’m addicted to wow and it’s really great because everything is new to me. From official servers to private servers… everything is new and great to me
OMFG.
ASMONGOLD JUST SOLVED LEAGUE OF LEGENDS TOXICITY.
"If you punish people for failing, then people will try harder to not get punished"
😮
There it is.
Toxicity. FF. Dodges. Trolling champ select. Duoing. Wintrading. Smurfing. Boosting. Etc.
All a symptom of punishing/rewarding someone for elses actions.
these 10 raid guilds who want extrem hard bosses, cant they just raid without full gear to make it harder?
the game gets easyer with every singel better item you get^^
in old school wow, you could go on max crit or max dmg but not both full scale...
clueless. the fights are still boring. its not about numbers its about stuff to do. and there are most likely more then 10 raid guilds who want this
Nobody just wants hard bosses. People want fun and challenging mechanics that require cooperation. That's how WoW raiding became good in the first place.
It's easy to see because every time a new "hard boss" comes out that's just a high dps check is when people start complaining the hardest.
@@bogdanlevi if you want a challenging gameplay in wow, than you need to play a healer, permanet attention and target changes!
i played the first 10 jears of wow as a priest and 2 month ago i played classic lichking, it was a total joke compare to how it was in the past, every trash mob gets aoe and at the boss i didnt even was needed as a healer, they made it so easy that it made my sad not to have the same task like it was in the past...items are stronger a.o. bosses are to weak and go down fast, no clue how it is on retails right now but it looks the same...
@@bogdanleviWhy don't they just raid in retail then? There is literally 0 precedent for hard bosses in any iteration of classic. Meanwhile retail releases Heroic and Mythic raids that are very challenging (especially Mythic obviously). Genuine question, I don't really understand why anyone plays classic wow for any above average challenge. I've played FPS games and other high skill pvp games like SSBM my whole life so my context coming into classic is that as a mostly new player, EVERYTHING is easy and that's fine.
@@yScribblezHD I play retail but the expansion is over. Ye classic isn't known for hard fights but sod is new. Why not make the raids hard for the first weeks while the average Joe's are still level 43.
And also the world first guilds in classic are giga dogshit . Sorry
Can we have discussions on why phase 2 wasn't received well?
I wonder if you can macro that shirt with cone of cold for precice cones every time?
Why can’t people understand about gear that it’s meant for the next tier not the current one. Having to gear out entirely in the gear the current raid drops means that at that rate after two tiers u content woll be close to a point were it won’t be mathematically possible or the bloat of stats will be on par with expansions instead of patches. Hard content is one thing nerfing a 50 boss more hp then the 40 man end boss of MC has in total is nuts
They really should have an NPC or interactable, that offers the difficulty challenge that the sweaty .2% of players in the top guilds are looking for. No loot, and charge a gold entry fee. Its just straight up braggint rights. Attach a feat of strength to it. Then make the rest of the game a difficulty that most can enjoy.
👏 👏 👏
I was saying Gnomer was overdesigned and slightly overtuned for the average player to be able to go in there and have fun for awhile
does he not spec for mortal strike? im confused
Well another point is that if you actually watch the people who were progressing on Shade, they were literally super uncoordinated. Healers overlapping, just placing the boss in the middle of the room, no proper spread of classes within groups, not giving tanks auras or totems, and numerous other problems. I mean if you go watch the world first Shade kill they had all those down tight and played well. While the bosses should of been nerfed, a lot of these "hardcore" classic players are also dense as hell which while isn't the entire problem, it is definitely a large portion of it.
wait, why is hoj on thurazane? is this running off tbc loot tables?
Wasnt HOJ 52 trinket?
wouldnt be useable anyway
I'm new to WoW & I like the pace of SoD, it gives me time to grind it out but still go to work & play other games. Personally, Sunken Temple would NEVER get done by my groups LOL but I also don't want to 100% the game, so if it doesn't drop a good Mage-Healer item then it's just a waste of time imo.
Wonder if our boy will ever find the ability to say thank you.
You've discovered
The new emerald crap is retail shit that made people stop play the game. There's no chanse in hell someone with a job and family can spend the time to grind the rep needed for must have gear and runes. It's the no ending grinding in retail that made people stop play the game. Really stupid thing to add. I dont have a job nor family to think about, and even I feel I dont have time to waste grinding all the crap needed.
I stopped playing before Season 2/Phase 2 dropped and I feel I made the right call. Shit looks ridiculously close to retail now.
Brd such a maze it’s great
Bro I don't understand how we judge all theses MMO so hard when wow looks like this after 15 years
This is classic? The whole point..
They need to discover how beat the raid
without a test server, the playerbase is the test for the first month after release.
Based on the fact that nobody can beat the raid. I will never even attempt it until level 55 when it’s on farm and half my group is 60.
Sod = chill nostalgia gaming
it was cleared tho? someone not paying attention
Its not f2p tho. You still need a sub to play. There will be no "new" players. Retail andys get bored pushing 3800 for title and decide to play a fun server.
Watching asmon wiping in Gnomer in phase 3, at 50 with every possible advantage that comes with being a streamer whilst pulling low dps has made me question his wow credentials.
Whoever titled this video deserves a raise.
wow players do have egos for no reason, i don't think i ever sweated in wow content if it wasnt mythic or high rated arenas. yet these wannabe try hardSOD players sweat so hard for what. none of those SOD players can prolly solo fatalis or mage tower challenges.
i like hard content and hard bosses but the bosses arent hard in SoD just have to much health imo
Still waiting for Classic Hard mode. People go crazy over having a raid that initially requires at least a bit of progression, then Blizzard nerfs it to a cake run.
Okay!…… let’s talk about how we are going to handle this. “Aggros everything from top” okay gotta go now! 51:10 lololol
Is there LBRS ? Once there is you should rly focus on getting 2x Spireblade Band from Overlord Wyrmthalak way better for you then this Mara ring.
9 am school what the fuck? Im from Iowa and we had to be in our desk first period by 7:45. Thats some bs if Texas school is 2 hours later man.
I came back to play SoD, and strictly in a casual sense the game is quite fun. You get to level up through classic with a lot less of the monotony of the game because of the runes and the xp boosts. Very enjoyable level up experience. The raid remakes are cool as well, although I haven't done one yet they do look fun to try out.
The only thing I have a major gripe with is the nightmare incursions. I tried one yesterday, and did get like 3/4 of a level of xp, but it is the only time that I have been playing the game that I have noticed SoD felt like "new" WoW. Everyone is in groups but nobody actually playing the game together. They are forced into groups to share quests, and if nobody needed those quests they would just run around and grab their quest items alone. They could definitely get better with time once the part of the population who is only interested in capping as fat as humanly possible stop doing them, but for right now they feel soulless and nothing like the rest of the SoD experience.
Still having a great time with the game overall, but you won't find me doing any more emerald portals for a while.
@43:40 missing that 16 dps lol dead
>Trash is red for him
>Complains that he can't hit shit
I don't get the joke
That was my favorite memory of TBC classic.... Clearing shadow labs when everything was red. So much fun.
Ah shit, here we go again!
Hard or easy isn't the scale, it's meaningful and enjoyable. Rewarding. Everything is so throw away in contrast to classic. Phase 1 was the best
lol people are already looking for people in LFG on wild growth for people that have cleared the raid and know fights. hasnt even reset yet
So is it worth as a casual player ?
I just think you need options. Let the player have agency. If someone wants to run legendary elden ring darksouls 3 bloodborne giga champ mode then yeah sure let that be in the game. But the base game should have a normal difficulty where most people can get on chill out and have fun. And at the top tiers of the game leaderboards, titles, cosmetic rewards should be what differs not amount of %rng loot or worse better loot.
People game because they want to have fun.
I did zf until 46 then someone told us incursions were as fast and made alot of gold i got there as soon as we figured it out boom nerf but it was ok still goof gold went for round 2 and right before turning in boom anothrr nerf so now some people made 1k gold and i made 100 lol the econ is super fuked now and i have to do incurions for rep still fml
where was the target dummy?
I've never agreed with asmond 100% of the time, but I agree with what he said at the start. It's a level up raid, this is a dad game, classic has always been easy and laid back. Casual people are just very quiet and never say how they feel, but they'll stop playing the game if it isn't enjoyable. The content was "hard" during 2004 because people were bad, internet sucked, computers sucked, and we couldn't share knowledge like we can now. How can a level up boss have the same hp as patchwerk, when we would've had aq40 gear and naxx gear, 10 more levels and better skills, world buffs, and twice the people.
The raid does need to be harder than say a classic raid without runes and the new gear at that lv due to power increase but I do agree it's overtuned way to much 1.3 mil health nerf whattttt lol
I love Asmon's autistic knowledge of the small things like knowing a weapons model and texture, etc... 1:24:58
rather have no PTR and OP bosses than have PTR and balanced bosses on day1-3
Leveling wasn't ruined, it was improved, just ask Preach.
Furries have resistance to rainbow guns you actually just give them buffs
Nightmare incursion has me raid logging at a speed i previously thought impossible.
SOD isn’t about levelling…
Why does Asmon even care? he will get carried anyways
I dont even think that wow players know that wow was made for casual mmo players
Did this clown just say that everything from maraudon is bad beside the ring? WTF? The axe from the crocodile? The awesome mail pants from the satyr? etc.
i lost all motivation to play after dealing with so many sweaty players. Even for normal dungeons, you have to be bis and a meta class to be invited.
“no one will ever praise when u do good, but will shine light on when u make mistakes” bro gnomer was perfectly tuned, nothing wrong, came out perfect, no one says shi other than make fun of the music, bfd came out, perfectly tuned, if u really wanna nitpick then DUST TO DUST could be a lil more manageable, but they release a terribly tuned raid by accident and im sure it was a mistake cause they have listened to everyone on everything so far on sod unlike retail, they have been exceeding everywhere where retail hasnt as a team, ya really jus look for anything to be able to shit on blizzard which is fine, it will forever be that way and it is blizzards fault, but they simply dont deserve it, they have been doing fuckin amazing, calm ur tits, im sure sod will continue being fantastic
Perfect time to use “This raid ruined my life”
I started with sod :) giga blasting parcer as I should be
people trying to sweat play SOD like it isnt a beta test for classic 2.0 are delusional
changes his tune about wow overnight lol
SoD is meant for casuals but mainly played by sweaty try-hards.
1:54:32 an hour isn't long. Also, you're a famous streamer on a populated realm with a horde of virgin simps dying to see their names on stream for 5 seconds. You can get a summon and carry to each DR and have the rune done in a few minutes, don't act like you can't.
Why is the new pve event bad?
Because it's so good, it has basically replaced doing dungeons or questing. Way too much exp for it.
I wouldn't say it's bad as in concept but it beats dungeon spam (honestly I love this as dungeon spam puts me to sleep) and questing by a shit ton. In my guild we had 2 people do excursions and hit lv 50 while the dungeon spammers were at 45-46 and me being someone who vibes out while questing was 44. My guild ended day one with people who did new event at lv 50 and if they continued playing with alts with almost another lv 50 dungeon spammers at 47-48 and then me a quester ended at 45
BLIZZURD SUCC BALLZ
I’m playing for the first time seriously… ish
My first time reaching max level was p1 and first time raiding was p2 playing bear.
Hitting sunken temple tomorrow in my first 20 man raid
... And again, the massive nerfs and exploits could have been avoided if the developers spent a couple hours actually playing the game.
Watching admin do less damage than a healer lol
Idk why u didnt go to gnomer at 49 lol
Pre classic andy's " you retail noobs are noobs, vanilla was waaay harder and took more skill to play!"
Post classic andy's "you retail noobs are noobs, classic is suppose to be easy!"
Just found out that you have to pay 90 Dollers for the war within expansion if you wanna play day one, otherwise you will have to wait 3 days for the "49.99" normal edition....
Fucking Blizzard. Even made a notice of this on the community forum resulting in an near immediate delete of post and now i cant post there anymore.
Was looking forward to the Xpac, but imma never playing wow ever again. Damn i hate this.
Bro is 100% playing it day 4
no one cares my guy
They did that with Diablo 4(which had a race and it was dumb).In general it it wouldnt really matter for retail WoW as the raid is not released right?Playing around others doesnt feel the same like classic/SoD so while i agree its just money grabbing it doesnt matter as much.
@@DeliriumTrigger2I care.
@@ppmpyae1152 Get a life
OMG!! It's like, the company that everyone has been shitting on for years now, because they've been making crap games and expansions, SURPRISINGLY, still makes crap games!!!
The only thing worse than Blizzard, is the raiding community.
Its because this game is, and always has been, full of people who think they are good but actually arent. Did you know most players use premade scripts that play their class for them?
