      NO. Will they do better than the previous ownership by activision and Bobby? That's the real question you need to ask. And i think probably YES. But this does not make me "believe in Microsoft"; you should NEVER believe any company at all. Because in the end the company has an obligation to it's shareholders. And most of them have brains like Goldfishes, not understanding that releasing good games is important to please the neckbeard-faction to silence them while they create their next moneymilking mobile game or the next GAAS-Title with tons of buyable cosmetics. But not satisfying the gaming-ultras is an devastating mistake; and seemingly Microsoft probably understood it.

    Also put GMs answering tickets back in the game itself so you can interact with a person instead of having to go through hoops to get to a person to solve your problem that isn't in their pre-selected group of problems. And it was fun when the GMs would mess with you when you were doing a dungeon or raid too. I still remember when my guild went back and did Firelands for transmogs and achieves and we were so overgeared we one-shot the bosses until Ragnaros and he just insta-killed us. It was so funny.

  • @liamwilson7549

    How to make Azeroth great again: #1.) Write better, more adult characters. #2.) Stop catering to the minority (WoW forums censor, ban, and deleted hundreds of thousands of protest posts against all the woke changes they’ve made to the game… never forget Vanessa VanCleef’s thighs) #3.) Make the game rated M, the playerbase has aged significantly. #4.) Put the war back in Warcraft. #5.) This is not a priority, but we need sexier outfits for women, better female models, and a better aesthetic in general. As it stands ff14 mods offer far more immersion than WoW has offered since it’s inception, I think it’s absolutely absurd.

    Microsoft brought us Age of Empires, Blizzard brought us WarCraft. Both games I enjoyed so, so much growing up! :) Not World of WarCraft, though. I never got into this game, but I was never one for MMOs. So many great memories with the strategy games, though. :)

    I've watched RUclipsrs over the years yell about what they want in world of Warcraft. And all those things I wanted all the things that people hate now. Top tier raiders have convinced the fan base over the years the in-game is all that matters. Gone are the hours of fun of leveling your character slowly enjoying every minute of it. Casuals are now at max level paying these people to run them through raids. Questing used to take hundreds of hours, now you get to max level in as little as 4. And content has to be made to keep us busy at max level. Gone are all the things we used to do, happily running back to town to learn our new spells. Everything is instant, but we call it quality of life.

    And you dont get amazing talent back just by saying "Hey ! Activision is gone ! come back everyone!" It would take a decade for this to happen, and to have Blizzard be able to make the quality they were once known for.
    On top, I think people are soft ignoring the fact that Microsoft is also very much interested in profit. I would not be surprised if they just continued doing what Activision did.

      My man, there are better ways to make money. If you sell a shitty product, less people are going to buy it. If Microsoft gives WoW buffer time to become a better product, it will sell much more on the long run. Companies care about maximizing profits no matter what, and that leads them to understand that sometimes, you need to properly juice something and that takes time. Spotify, Uber and AirB&B for example, they are not currently profitable, in fact, they only loose billions of dollars yearly, aswell with all of the E-Sports orgs. Investors know that they will eventually be profitable and they are willing to wait for it, and Microsoft doing something like gamepass, they are not planning things in the short term.
