Plunderstorm is Breaking All the Rules (And that's a GOOD thing!)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 май 2024
- World of Warcraft Plunderstorm just blew everyone's minds with its release. A WoW themed battle royale game, set in Arathi Highlands, themed after pirates? It seems silly, but it is a ton of fun! And this new game mode is only the beginning - Blizzard is surely using Plunderstorm as a testing ground for new game modes they could create for the future. But what might those game modes be? And is this new Blizzard Entertainment battle royale as good as some people say? In this video, Nixxiom sets sail for Arathi and shares his thoughts on this latest addition to World of Warcraft.

FEEDBACK NEEDED! For the Nixxiom Merch Store (link in desc) which class should I make a t-shirt design for next? So far we have DK, Warlock and Paladin.
Priest, holy on the front and shadow on the back!
Priest. You mentioned before you're a fan of the Avatar priest set so why not try to do sumn like that. Make it look like Tyrael almost.
I can count on zero finger the times I enjoyed BattleRoyal including all the varius movies, this shitfest of a game mode wont change that any time soon.
Rogue would be really cool!
Druid! Ishnu-alaaaaah weary traveler
The last mission of Blood elves in the Frozen Throne was actually tower defence.
Not right, in the mid game you can do a sacret MIssion.
The Last one is Maggi kick out of the Black Tempel.
I remember playing Blizzard TD in WC3. It was one of the scenarios that came with the game.
They should create a card game around it where each spell has it's own stats that are used to get the opponents health to 0
More power to those that like it. It's not for me, but for those that likes battle royale and pvp it may be fun. I quit after three matches, don't think I ever will return.
Same.
Its funny because I hate battle royale games but blizzards take with it in plunderstorm is kinda fun. Only reason Im continuing to play is just for all the transmog rewards tho
Same boat not my cup of tea
Not for me...super dull 😴
Hear me out:
FOOTMEN FRENZY
You are a conniseur of fine historical gaming delights I see
Dude, imagine if Blizzard made a WoW moba! That would be so cool. They could use popular lore characters as champions and pit players against each other. That would be crazy!
I was saying this same thing. It’s a step closer to a Smite WoW combo
heroes of storm? lol
Are you serious? Heroes of the Storm, buddy...
Not gonna be rude or try to make you sound dumb, as myself didn't even really hear of it until recently as a WoW vet since OG vanilla. But Blizzard did do a moba for WoW pretty much, called Heroes of Storm and it failed miserably, within like 2 years of it dropping they shut it down and pulled the plug on it all together.
Wow that would be so cool man! Like we could also add character from Diablo and Starcraft and Overwatch there! Damn that game would be so amazing! Pls Blizzard!
this is alot of frustrating work to get a mount ;/
i know it's basic, but a warrior shirt would be awesome
Think I’m going to go through the list off all creators who were invited to the tournament that hyped up this game mode. Surprising amount at this point, almost like they might have exchanged reviews for entrance.
Kingdom under fire 2 did something similar with there RTS/MMO hybrid
literally only playing for the mount
SAME THIS MODE IS TOTAL BULLSHIT FRUSTRATIGN AS FUCK
Blizzard once again missing the trend train by about 6 years.
Exactly what I said on a SoulB video where I said Zombie Survival would be next and was instantly called a 'Boomer'.
Following trends that is a female thing. Men dont care about trends. Do what you want when you want ❤
And it still turned out fun. Your point?
Who gives a fuck? Are you so brainrotted that devs have to hop on a trend for it to be fun?
@@sninctbur3726 Might be hard to hear this, but you thinking it's fun doesn't mean everyone does. Nor does it mean they can't openly voice their dislike. Go enjoy it and stop taking offense to people who don't agree with you.
They could be how they do player housing/farm sim that is more story driven like Palia, ACNH, and such. The Survival game mode could be that as well.
Crazy ideas. I wonder if they'll ever make WoW into an RTS
Id like to see something like Fable ... like a choose your own destiny type game
I mean your idea of making a survival game in the world of azeroth sounds awesome just because I like the locations in Warcraft, but the new mode itself is not really a good thing right? I mean it's great to branch out of the 20 year old system and all but trying to have a subscription to a game-mode readily available just about everywhere for FREE is kinda dumb. If i wanna shut my brain off while doing something not WoW then I do something not WoW.
Hell, why not have players develop their own dungeons and eventually raids and set loot governed by key rules.
Is there an on demand dodge or evade ability built-in to all characters?
nope you need to use an item slot to dodge. and the nerfed the dodge items into the ground.
Love your videos man! Great editing and attention to detail. Keep us updated on plunderstorm!
Hey Nix I really enjoy your videos thanks for putting so much thought into yur content. Have a great day.
Does it require subscription?
Do a Druid shirt! I'll buy immediately
I think this would have been 2-3x better if it was just warcraft theme and not pirate. Why Pirate? ..... I might be the only person in this world who thinks Pirates are cringe and corny lol... it's on the same level as Cowboys and Indians - I think just doing this more in the warcraft theme would have helped sell this idea.
it’s pirate because the playerbase really wanted the next expansion to be about pirates. funny enough you’re the outlier when it comes to wow players and pirates lol
I'd like to see the Evoker made :D
Hey Nixxiom i thought you said you'd put a link to you and crendor's games, a day after this video. Watched this vid five days after release and then looked for the link you said would be there..big fan, much love
still waiting for the flying BGs I was promised on the box of Wrath......
the name only, lol.. doesn't bring me back
"Its a new take on BR by being not FPS"
Naraka: Bladepoint being in top 10 games on Steam - "Yeah yeah blizz was always so innovative"
you know its bad if the only thing he can say is " think of all the other games bliz could copy"
Everyone has always said Blizzard is at their best when they copy other games.
if only you knew their roots...
Why is it so painful to believe the game is actually fun?
@@SlingbladeOfficial1 because i have played it lol
Love you nixxiom ❤ thanks for this video!
been playing since it dropped however many weeks ago and really enjoying it. survivability is much more enjoyable then pvp for me so i just wait til i lvl to engage lol
The actual irony is how WoW was originally built on their RTS engine. The other irony is Vampire Survivors has already been a hypothetical game mode and datamined before in the past since DF launched.
Yeah it must be a real good mode when you are being payed and getting added to a cash prize event for the mode.
Warlock corruption shirt
This is wild
I personally didn't like it but it was okay fun but it just didn't tickle my MMO brain, it tickled my smash bros brain so I played that after I left my match.
WARRIOR BOIIZZ!! WARRIORRRRRRRR!!!!"
I wish WildStar was more like WoW in it's settings
Died to Quick o7.
I would try it if it were free to play.
I never believes in shills until this game mode dropped.
We got TowerDef in W3 made by ppl - to bad blizz never did anything like that
Anyone gonna tell this guy about HotS?
@@Psilocybin77HotS only happened because Blizzard was many years late to the party. If Blizzard had been proactive, DotA would have been trademarked and the premier MOBA.
@@Psilocybin77 dude u rly take tower defence games that its moba? U know like Defense Grid etc...love how u take "Defense of the Ancients" few towers in it for Tower defence game.
I really hope the stuff fromm here gets in the Post or something as that's how I'm probably gonna get it becasue Plunderstorm's an absolute PITA for me as I generally don't like PvP......Music's pretty cool honestly
Not a battle royale player but the game mode does show many great mechanics that makes the game enjoyable.
For instance skillfull gameplay, there are barely any lock in abilities, even auto attack is an ability you can cast making it able to be dodged if you’re opponent is good enough, you abilities feel like it matters so it doesn’t feel you did all your cool-downs n you just tickled 2% HP of the opponent.
Second minimalism: Your class in wow usually has like 20 to 30 active abilities you need to remember to use the medium power of your class & in an 3v3 pvp you also got to remember the ally n opponents abilities wich makes you need to remember like 120 abilities(ich) so to see this game mode only to have 7 active slots makes it very easily to control n remember.
Third new abilities: There are so many abilities that seem to be actually fun if the classes gain an hold to it such as the arcane time bomb or the kamehameha orb, they feel so good to use n they hit as you expect it to be.
The thing I do wish that could change in an pvp view that the way health is lost or regains feels very dice rolling, one moment you take no damage n all of an sudden you feel like you just got hit by an truck driving by Garrosh, there is just this uncertainty of losing n gaining health wich becomes very frustrated when you think you doing well but it doesn’t show it you do.
Monk! And put Chen on it!
it's hard to believe Plunderstorm is as fun as it is. I don't like battle royals. I barely like WoW as it is. Arathi Basin is a super unremarkable zone. And here we are I cannot have enough of this stuff.
totally agree, its really fun! :)
Warrior or rogue next shirt.
Bruh Virgil’s is so good but so expensive.
i LOVE blizz taking risks!! too bad its in this form....i subbed like a moron for a pirate patch and got this
7:00 it has opened the door? Fix your script. And then open the door to open the door so that you can open the door.
If only it wasn't a limited time event, even though we get it for an entire month there are still many, myself included who simply cannot and perhaps will not sit the hours it takes as there's too few hours to spare because of work and whatnot and because there's so much other stuff going at the same time.
anyone miss rumbleverse
Do warlock next!!!
Druids
More players hate it than love it, played a few games, big nope for me
Loveeee thisssssss. Omg blizz moreee. Havent felt like this about wow in a long time.
Right now its really a fun little game mode but there is potential, even with skins in plunderstorm etc.
More abilities, more maps, squad play. maybe healing skills and so on. There is alot of potential
i dont like the game mode all that much, but Blizzard being open to doing stuff like this is a good thing.
Do a warlock shirt please!
I don't love it, but i dont hate it either. I enjoyed what little I played of it, but it's not something I'm gonna put much time into. I do like that they did something like this.
For me it's 50/50 kinda fun because it's something very different but also not fun because I still have literally 0 kills I just get exterminated every time maybe I just suck very badly
New Nixxiom videoooo! Get hyped!
yeah right dude
Forgotten in few weeks
I don't play battle royale because pvp type games stress me out and that is not why I play a video game I play wow because I can pve and it is a mmorpg
Same. I don’t touch PvP because it causes me anxiety. I was looking forward to something to do in the actual game, and instead I’m just gonna go play another run of BG3. Battle Royales are just not fun.
Land, do quest, die. Land, do quest, die. Land, do quest, die. For - at least - 40 hours. From a PvP perspective it's even less balanced than actual WoW, despite having a significantly reduced toolkit available. Like many PvP games, the optimal strategy is... to avoid pvp. Kill the rares, open the chests, die once you have ~400 rep. Takes about 5 minutes, including the lobby. Or you could try to win, or even win, and get... 600 rep. 700, maybe. And it takes 15minutes.
It's not WoW. It'd be fine if this was just a bonus thing they added. It's not that. It's a thing they built secrecy and hype for. It's a thing that they teased intentionally... knowing the majority of WoW players don't care about PvP.
Damn man hope blito paid you more then 10 bucks and sylvanas left toe pic for this.
I find id quite meh, few random abilities and grind thing. They really could've made it way better and more fun, this feels like random spell mobile game.
So far I hate it.
Cant even get in and get a few plunder with how vicious people are...
Do hunters pls
make a shirt of the linchking :) i know its not a class ore he is a deahtnight so far i know but would love the shirt from him
Time and development should have just been on improving the actual game...
By doing what? Making another system? Another rep grind?
@@gmoney9469 by putting the world back in wow. Giving us a legit reason to go back to old zones. Make world events better and more dynamic. Revamping class halls.
@@dovahsween3378 Seems like a pretty vague ask to me. Sure, that would be a nice touch for existing, long time players, but I doubt it would entice many people to come back. I think that working on improving how it feels to play WoW is much more important than getting more content of the same thing. I think that toying with the idea of simplifying the gameplay is a good step in the right direction, even if it is only a single step.
@@gmoney9469 it is a vague response because this is a YT comments section.
@@dovahsween3378 What a boring cop out response. And after I went through all that effort to give you a serious reply just now. Well whatever, I’ll leave you to your wallowing then.
It’s absolutely awful and all of you RUclipsrs are shilling for it because you don’t actually like WoW and this is Fortnite-at-Home and we are supposed to eat it up. Call it for what it is, an asset flip mini game embedded in the client.
It’s not WoW, and where our retail product is dying on the vine, dev time wasted on shit like this makes me want my sub money back.
Hunter pls
I was enjoying Plunderstorm until it was time for server shutting down, lol
Please upload more gameplay of you playing plunderstorm!
The game alredy has cheaters, ping abuseing and teaming in solos
You prob. won't even notice you are playing against wow ai bots. they made in the Island Expeditions. to simulate there are still many ppl playing retail hahaha
do monk : o
You know what I love....more content creators simping to blizz's overhyped BS.
Absolutely boring anytime I get anywhere I die I die every time I never got above place. 32 so freaking boring.
warlock
Lol, Nixxiom, another payed Blizz Streamer.
"Breaks all the rules" = copies Fortnite and every other battle royale.... ok.
In wich way does it copy Fortnite? lol, having a cloud that makes the map smaller? doesent feel like fortnite what so ever, as its not a FPS. Same thing can be said about Fortnite then, Fornite copies H1Z1 and PUBG wich came before Fornite. u can say things like that about other games then, League of legends copies Dota 2 and the original Dota. Does it make LoL garbage? no, all of the above game has its own twists on genre. Is POE bad cause it copies the general idea of other dungeon crawlers like Diablo 2 ? no
Yea man the streamers were paid to give all these positive reviews. Xaryu gave a carbon copy “review” and then a day or 2 after this they announced that streamer event 😂
Think he meant breaking their rules. Not taking risks and trying to appeal to everyone
absolute dog mode
I rather see these ideas be their own games and not having to chain us to a paid subscription, only so they can artificially increase the number of subscribed players to WoW
And you know Blizzard hates individual games too, reason why let HearthStone, Heroes of the Storm and OverWatch die over the years
I personally think WoW themed games of all kinds would be cool, as many other series have successfully done spin offs while still making a good base game (like the Persona series as an example.) It's just blizzard has really fumbled the bag on it and is always really late to whatever ones are actually popular amongst gamers in the prime time to do so. My thoughts on Plunderstorm is it's cool, and I don't mind if they learn some things from it for the base game or whatever possibility of a WoW reboot/reset. And for stuff like Plunderstorm to be main stays in Blizzards catalog. But definitely hope WoW never gets rid of it's staple RPG roots and tab target playstyle it's had since it was released. (Atleast don't strip it's essential/rpg elements more than they already did so far. Even if in recent years they're starting to go back to them a lil bit with new talent trees and stuff.) Nice vid Nixxiom, keep it up. 🙏🔥
Yeah, I'm not going to pay 12 bucks per month for this. Nice try Blizzard.
What kind of dumb take is that? XD
your sub obvi isnt just for this one game mode lmaooo.. its literally for the entire MMO. weird take man.
Imagine releasing a pvp event in a game where 95% of the playerbase is pve-oriented...
I'm glad they're experimenting, but this is not it.
By your logic, they should just delete PvP entirely lol. The player base is so PvE oriented because the game is so complicated and people get intimidated by the idea of being bodied by try hards. Simplifying PvP is the exact thing they need to do if they want more people to partake in it.
@@gmoney9469 By your logic they should simplify PVP so that every match is a game of rock-paper-scissors to determine the winner lol. That way the game will become less complicated and be more inclusive, diverse and accessible to everyone, not just people who like PVP.
@@grayfox2618 Your comment would make sense if there weren’t 10,000 more complex than rock paper scissors that people do not feel too intimidated to get into. You don’t need 30+ different abilities on multiple hot bars to be considered more complex than RPS. You tried though.
all i can say is... lmfao
The cope in this vid is insane lmao. but everything you came up with is pretty cool to think about haha
I know he's trying to be positive but the renown grind is painful as hell...
I absolutely hate this style of gameplay. I do it once a day just to get the daily rewards. I want that transmog that Blizz attached to this crap.
They could even make a moba with 3 lanes and heroes and call it Defence of the Ancients
This event is trash, but I want the transmog so IDK, might just give it up, takes too long to get the rep.
No... just no...
This game is going nowhere due to being tied to a wow sub
Plunderfail
Not a good thing. Well, they can do what they want. But what certainly aint a good thing is adding 40 ranks to this, put transmogs, mounts toys etc behind this and force people to endure through this shite for hours and hours if they like it or hate it. BR was great in 2016.
Simp’n for big daddy bliz! This is garbage.
