Hey again everone thanks for your opinions on my opinions! =D
Now it's been explained to me why my ideas aren't as good as I thought!
It was nice having such a discussion even if some of you jumped at the chance to act like total losers with nothing better to do other than antagonize those that are willing to express their opinions in the first place.

As regarding my age (21,well I say 21 I'm actually 20 and I will be 21 on the 16/07!)..well,those of you with such small minds as to try and put others down in any way possible will always find a way to do it-age,sex,location,colour,creed,religeon-it's human nature to be as nasty as possible when you can get away with it so no hard feelings. I only feel sorry that you feel you must live your lives in such a way to feel better.

1.No , wait , graphics , is one of the main reasons why some people play the game, i have high end pc i can run any new game with great graphics if i want , but no , i like wow graphics , better said i LOVE the graphics , it's not too cartoony but also not too realistic and i actually love it.
2.Marriage system? No , and i don't even need to say why
3.Add more customization , Yes , i only agree with this point

So if you want a game that looks realistic with awesome graphics , where you can get married buy a house etc , i'd say WoW is not the game for you

Marriage system? No thanks and it's also not something that Blizzard would put into the game as this is supposed to be a 12 and up game and people are not here on WoW to have relationships OP if you want that then go do something like Second Life if it really bothers you and even if Marriages occur on RP realms it's mostly between players who are couples in real life the rest of us would have no use for it and plus kids play this game and the last thing parents want to see is their child playing a game which could be involving them having to witness domestics between so called "married couples" let's keep real life stuff like that out of WoW and likely it's going to get ignored by the dev's

You mention the graphics needing to be updated. I personally feel your barking up the wrong tree with this one of the massive success reasons for WoW is that Blizzard has not consistantly updated the engine and therefore even if the engine is old by today's standards it is doing an excellent job of keeping all of the player base happy. I am also aware that yes the character models need some work but otherwise with the added things mentioned by others such as sunshafts and water graphics being updated it's not too bad at all. WoW is fairly unique graphics wise and even I who owns a machine that can run it on ultra will say to me it does not look at all dated maybe a little but when you have the settings cranked up it looks pretty amazing to be honest. I also think you have to understand not all the player base can afford the money for a high end machine that can have the graphical punch to run games such as the Elder Scrolls series. WoW is not those games and if the graphics bother you so much you should really stop with being critical of Blizzard and ask yourself if I don't like the graphics why am I still playing your not being forced to subscribe to WoW at all.

As for more customisation that I agree with but the above points get a big no from me. And I am sure as you may have realised a lot of us share those same views.

Firstly,better graphics: I mean the game is what-10 or 11 years old-and you still haven't updated the graphics much?


The game is 7 and half years old actually. Also they did update the graphics in wotlk to support HD. Also at some point they updated the water and added sun shafts. And at some point they added Ultra graphics settings. So yes they have updated the graphics quite a bit.

10+ years and no update on character customization?


They are re-mastering character customisation in MoP so don't u worry!

08/06/2012 12:18Posted by Allandrielle
All of the newest games seem to have something great that your game of 10+ years hasn't-player housing,marriage systems,the ability to ride basic mounts from level 1 etc etc.


In MoP they are adding a farmvillie clone, so DW you will get something similar to your player housing soon.

As for getting married, u can do it. It has been done before, just need a bit creativity and know your items.

And wouldn't it be nice to be able to wear your favorite outfit and still have your armor buffs?


Transmogrification done this. However I think the rules need to loosened in the follow way though:
Firstly make it so Polarms can be transmogged into staffs and visa versa.
Main hand, off hand and one hand daggers can all be mogged into each other.
One hand, off hand and main hand: Swords, Maces and Axe's should be able to be mogged into each other.
Two hand maces, swords and axe's should be transmogrificable into each other.

Firstly,better graphics:

Oh I fully agree with this one, I mean yeah yeah its nice to let a vast range of PCs play it but even the cheapest price PCs on the market, for their value you could get something that can run most modern games on at least low if you know where to look. I mean take a look at this

This is from what I worked out Warsong Glutch on the Unreal Engine retextured, I would like to make it clear I did not do this, I was just browsing YouTube and came across it and my mind was blown by how amazing it would look, and to be fair the videos quite low quality, if it was uploaded in 1080p I bet them maps would look epic.

The water actually annoys me, the fact it is so good compared to the rest of the graphics irritates me. I like many ideas in other MMOS but i like wows base. Rift had a costume system where you could wear an outfit but still have all your armor buffs no matter what armor type you wear.

Plus poster above me wsg looks amazing in that video!

Everyone is entitled to voice opinions and make suggestions and equally everyone else is entitled to comment and make counter suggestions ..

Firstly,better graphics: I mean the game is what-10 or 11 years old-and you still haven't updated the graphics much?
I'm a 21 year old player,I don't want to feel like I'm playing a kids cartoon game!


Graphics seem to be constantly under review and are updated as needed.

I am a 59 year old player and have enjoyed the challenges posed by both the US > and < EU Betas back in the mists of the developers minds and before WoW began.

I have played constantly since those Betas and the only break I had was forced upon me by ill health.

The only real grumble I had ( still have ) is that we cannot play with our friends across the big pond nor can we post on the US forums either.

I do not feel as if WoW is a "kids cartoon game", quite the opposite in fact.

I use what is in my head .. Imagination .. and I am pretty sure that as you grow older you will understand what I mean.

player housing,marriage systems,the ability to ride basic mounts from level 1 etc etc


My personal feelings are that if Housing and Marriage were available it would be the death of WoW.

I have had the use of "Basic Mounts" since level 1 ... these particular mounts are free ( no need to buy them ) and every player has them .. Feet.

08/06/2012 12:18Posted by Allandrielle
Thirdly: 10+ years and no update on character customization?


This seems to be in hand and is always a work in progress.

I don't want to rain on your parade either but both myself and my daughters are happy with the way things are at present and we thank Blizzard for the opportunity to take part in what we believe is a fantastic game and will continue to be so for many years to come.


Completely agree with all of the above. Why do older people play games? Why not? Why do young people play games? I am a grown-up (sadly) and i love the look of this game. i'm not a gamer, wow is really the first game i've played seriously. Yes i had pong as a kid and have played on the snes etc over the years, but quickly got bored. wow is my first love in games, so much so i did my dissertation on it :P

Customization could be improved for sure, and some grahics need improving (hands and feet for starters) but they wouldnt really enhance the gameplay as such.

People were replying/responding to your post, i always felt that age was irrelevant to a game so am always wary when someone insists on telling you their age...

That looks so bad.. Take your "i want new graphics :((8888" qq to e.g star wars plz. this game engine is 8 yrs old and i doubt they wud update it considerign the fact that the current graphics are more than enough.

i disagree to OP's all arguments and nothing should be added, changed or deleted from what he stated.
