1. The forum & main site will stay up indefinitely after MTurk shuts down in case anyone needs anything. I assume a handful of things will break after MTurk vaporizes & I'll fix it as fast as I can to keep the two main parts of the site online.

    I didn't post much on the forums but I was Valik in game. (with variations of the name on the villian side)

    Which I pretty much use Valik for all of my MMO names...so uh, don't hate me if I've ever wronged you.

    That helped kill it for me. I -might- go back if they start a new progression server with Krono disabled...but I honestly don't see it happening.

    I think with WoW specifically they've just run out of ideas. It's become so big they have to make it easy to get to end game but then hard to keep the hardcore's showing up and it's just all very muddled now. Activision stepping in doesn't help either.

    Exactly. I love blizzard and I probably always will. And I have a phone. :emoji_joy: But they need to take a minute and refocus. Maybe Chris Metzen will come back and lead them back to greatness.

    UGH the new Diablo has me so salty. I didn't take a shine to D3 and was hoping for a D4. There's enough crummy ARPGs on mobile like why Blizz WHY!?!?!?!

    Sadly our generation is a dying breed of gamers. Mobile is the future and it grosses me the hell out. So is the F2P industry. TBH sooner or later with all these subs and streaming platforms we will never really "own" a game ever again. When that happens I'll just play old school rpgs till I die lol.

    It was a cash grab for sure. I was hoping it would be like how FO4 had Fallout Bunker for mobile which was just a leadup to the actual game... nope. This is the full fledged mobile game complete with microtransactions.

    Because there are far more people in Asia who love those types of games than people here waiting on diablo 4. I get people being disappointed in not getting an announcement about 4 but the reactions were soooooo over the top dramatic I nearly sprained my eyes from rolling them so hard lol.

    Wasn't there a WOW classic server coming out? I won't lie...I've considered giving that a go and I've been clean of WOW for years.

    I wouldnt go so far as to say that.. I mean, mobile has its place and the target is younger gamers for sure, but PC gaming I dont believe will ever be a longshot to dying. Parts are more attainable than they used to be and people of all levels can get into playing. The issue is transitioning people from console to PC since people seem to be scared of PC gaming who havent done it before.
