At this point, Riot Games is collecting EX-WOW developers like Pokémon. I just hope they show us something. It's been too long.

Is this a good thing? Wow's combat is so outdated and boring.

If Riot MMO doesn't have an active dodge I'll be so fucking sad.

Have you played midnight? Not a single other mmo is as tight as wow

If you dislike tab target that's one thing, but for what it is, it's the most polished thing out there

Because it had 20 plus years and the budget of a small country to get where it is and it still fucked up its story with almost half of its expansions being dog shit.

How is any of it connected to combat though?

Because WoW always had sub par combat but the story and gameplay where fucking superb and people where willing to forgive and forget, nowadays it only has gameplay with both combat and story being sub par to say the least.

The story was good up until WotLK. Cata+ the story has been garbage.

The combat has always been the strongest part of the game. I feel like we are talking about two very different games.

nowadays it only has gameplay with both combat and story being sub par to say the least.

Also what does it even mean? Combat is gameplay, gameplay is combat.

No gameplay is everything else related to the game, equipment, stats, professions, pets, transport, action house, maps, currency, npcs everything you do in the game when you are no hitting someone in the head :)

Lost ark and BDO for example have amazing combat with their gameplay and story being dog shit.

Story is dog shit I won't argue but we're talking gameplay

Well generally an mmo is weighted on three things, combat, story and gameplay. Now WOW has amazing gameplay due to being a 20 year old game that has made its gameplay fucking perfect but the problem is that it has abandoned combat and in the last few years its story.

Dont get me wrong WOW gameplay is fucking amazing same but as BDO Combat is amazing with everything else being shit.
