Why choose this over WoW?

[Ranghar]

I know it's a demo, but I can't help but wonder why I would should play this over WoW. I could just level in dungeons in WoW or I could buy a boost and rush into mythic+.

It looks like WoW with Elvui, but the game itself feels less snappy and it feels less immersive than WoW's classes.

I feel if you want to do well you need to out WoW WoW when it comes to abilities, sounds, animations, ability effects, and flow.

The jumping feels terrible too, and spamming jump is a WoW pastime.

I will keep playing it more to see if it grows on me, but a little disappointing at the moment.

So far it feels like a clunky unreal engine imitation instead of an evolution.

Anyone who seriously and earnestly enjoys M+ will not quit playing WoW to partake in this Roblox version of someone’s feverdream recollection of what M+ is.

This is the Temu version for players who don’t realize how ♥♥♥♥ they are at M+ to come and try to keep avoiding their own self realization that they’re just trash at the game.

I mean, I was pushing lower mid to mid (22-25) range keys before the rework, then I quit and finally had my entire battlenet removed after 20+ years to break free. I felt like I was somewhat serious about mythic+ as I lived and breathed it since legion. Obviously this game has much to do, but it does emulate the only thing that gave me any slight enjoyment in a 20ish year old game after all that time.

I don't expect to be pressed with almost flawless game play and a single misstep or poorly timed cool down will lead to an entire group wipe on a tyrannical boss that has a strict rotation on group/personal cd's. But I'll gladly take a somewhat lower key level experience in a style of game play loop I do enjoy.

Your final sentence is actually one of the biggest problems in mythic+. That attitude right there is the exact reason many people don't have as much fun as they could be having in keys.

And I'll be frank, that attitude, while it exists somewhat in the top 1% of key runners, it is not rampant. Actual good mythic+ players don't go around calling people trash or act like a child when something goes wrong. The ones that think they're better than they actually are, normally do that.

It's alright to not be the best at something, we all start somewhere and every person has multiple potential caps at certain stages that can be surpassed with enough experience and positive support from their teams while learning. Tear them down early and risk losing potential players that could perform at that level because you ran them off with your nasty attitude.

Role playing as a gate keeper has always been a weird thing for me to watch over the years as mythic+ grew to what it is now. I've never understood experiencing a bad outcome in a key and immediately deciding to talk down, berate or just outright attack someone with hate because I became emotional over something so minor.

When you play WoW just for the story ..

I did a lot of progression raiding back in the day when wow first came out. I don't have time commitment it takes to be a dedicated late game raider anymore. This and 33 immortals make it so that I can enjoy that gameplay without having to worry about questing, leveling, reputation grinding, etc. to get all the stuff recipes and stuff I need to be competitive with other people that might want a spot in a raid.

so m+ wow jammer

been playing wow for years already doing +3's here

I can tell you multiple reasons why

1. 0 subscription
2. you dont have to relevel or do any form of other content to get gear (raiding, wq, delves)
3. you dont have to spend x$ amount for every new expansion
4. content here could also move a lot quicker as its only focused on one aspect of the game, while you have to wait 4 months for some new dungeons and old dungeons, and then some half baked, tier set, and modifiers that keeps getting lame

I mean I'm going to keep playing WoW and dip my toe into this too. It's solid and it's simply something fresh and different. It's basically like getting extra WoW classes and dungeons.

I mainly chose this over WoW because I was curious about M+ but extremely unwilling to give another penny to Blizzard after what happened the last time I did that.

this game is below average.
if wow classic original had only dungeons, it would look 1000 times better than this... and that game is in 2008, and this is in 2025... shame.
from the character design, classes, gender selection, controls and its button assignment settings. the graphics are also so-so.
