  • Since I only got to watch cinematics last time, I decided to try out Retail WoW again and see how much fun Mage REALLY is! The main issue is, I don't know where to go...SO! I got my editor and his friend Danny to make up a little mini adventure guide to help make my WoW experience more fun. Enjoy!!

Day9 has played RPGs before, so, its not that different. Streaming can make your brain go dumb, meaning being put in social situations where tons of ppl are watching is a lot of pressure and a lot of brain space being used to be a good streamer. He's not using the amount of energy he would be using if he was playing alone. His mindset would also be different.

    I was about 1 hour 30 minutes into this video, and I wanted to see how fast that I, a VERY experienced wow player, could catch up. So I made a void elf mage and started leveling (since void elf starts at level 10 in Stormwind), and at 2:31:08 in the video, I turned in the same quest to Keeshan that Day9 just did in 48 minutes on my character.
    Going in order, and more importantly, not dying, certainly helps lol.
    I'm not saying this to talk about how bad Day9 is or anything, he'd absolutely DESTROY me in Starcraft or Hearthstone and the like because I am *not* experienced in those, just as he is not experienced in WoW. It was just a fun experiment and I thought I'd chime in. (For the record, I did not use any heirlooms since D9 also didn't have access to heirlooms.)

  • @JimmyR42
    @JimmyR42 Місяць тому

    Hi Day9, I just wanted to add on that feeling of choices/freedom in how to go about doing things in games because it is relevant to the history of WoW. Classic WoW has now reach the Cataclysm expansion which is regarded by many as the beginning of the "downfall" of WoW, at least in terms of game design. You see, after having extended the talent trees and ability pools twice, with The Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King, the "devs" (probably some wise non-gamer in marketing) felt that the game was getting too complex for new players and that said complexity would deter people from even trying the game. With the theme of Cataclysm being the reshaping of Azeroth following the awakening of Deathwing, it seems the devs were embolden to attempt to reshape the character progression experience as well. So they squashed down all talent trees to half their size, removed the ability to freely put points in different trees and essentially streamlined the experience. They reverted a lot of that back to how it was in later expansions but the damage had been done and the rise in popularity of private servers running TBC and WotLK versions of the game began around that time.
    For many, the Vanilla, TBC and WotLK versions are considered the best simply because the design philosophy hadn't been "tainted" by the streamlining obsession that serves more the investors in renewing the customer base than the actual customer base. Imagine having played the game for years precisely for that freedom of doing things "your way", and then logging in to a new expansion not to have more ways to do things, but less. Ironically, at the highest level of the game, the raiding scene, classes like frost mage and elemental shaman are essentially spamming their main spell(frost/lightning bolt) for 2 hours so despite having well over 40 different spells/abilities the relevancy of the majority of them is very circumstantial. Which loops back to the design change. Reducing the amount of such circumstantial abilities is a reasonable business move, but it is done at the cost of taking away player freedom. And then they proceeded to make the same mistake so many corporations made, they confused game features with player freedom. Giving players more things to do "your" way isn't making your game more relatable to your players, it often makes it less, feeling like your game is just a list of chores. Giving players more ways do to the same feature is immensely more relatable because you've given the players the ability to play "their" game. Another problem with the streamlining of a game is what people refer to as the Class Identity problem. For instance, the mage's Blink was so strong that the class only started falling off of the meta after many other classes had been given similar movement abilities. At first those changes were thematically motivated, like the rogue getting shadowstep in TBC or the deathknight getting a "get over here" scorpion style pull, but then the themes became a pretext to give everyone essentially the same toolkit, making the class selection process almost irrelevant compared to it being the most important decision of any rpg.

    Basically single target spells will 99% of the times make more damage than AOE attacks unless there are at least 4 o 5 enemies under the AOE area
    For single players and unless youre doing raids or dungeons Id say focus on single attack spells for damage

    1 to max level is just a long extended tutorial for when the real game starts. The game doesn't get remotely challenging until you hit current content. Side note, i find it more fun downloading, arranging and configung mods then i actually do olaying the damn game.
