Will deathknights ruin WoW?
by Nepik | 17/03/2008 22:10:45 The idea of making a new class seems pretty cool, but the idea of making it a "Hero class" is what turns the idea completely around. Especially one that blizzard has said that even casual players could aquire. This is going to wreck PvE, PvP and uniqueness of the game from the way i see it. If the deathknight were just to be an unlockable class that is equal to other classes there would be no problem. In all other warcraft games where there is a hero class, they completely destroy all the other classes easily, if that's the way it's going to be in WoW then basically everything will be ruined. Nearly everyone is going to make one, every class you could pick other then a deathknight will just be considered "the other class" now that everyone could make a much better class, people would discontinue leveling alts being there's no more point, people would have less fun on their mains, all battlegrounds will just be topped by all the deathknights and everyone is going to be a free HK, it's bad enough warlocks are op enough to do it now and blizzard thinks they are balanced, but a class that is meant to be op? The fun value of the game will be decreased much further to anyone without deathknight. Many classes (with the exception of healers) will be replaced. PvP will be pretty much broken especially for melee classes, 80% of the game will end up being the same class and a class with high survivability at that fact, slow paced PvP is not fun, every game that tries that fails and every game that makes fast paced PvP is hugely successful (Halo 3, Super smash brothers, the addiction of WoW pre bc PvP wise etc) group orientated PvP outside of arena will be just as demanding as arms warriors in arena (Assumeing death knights can't do arena, if they can then i'm just going to be speachless at how rediculous that would be) the new PvP area being added will be overun by deathknights and even if not everyone is a deathknight right away, its no fun fighting next to someone immensly stronger then you, you would feel useless while the deathknight just runs around haveing all the fun with all heals on him while the other players will just be neglected. You may as well just remove all tanking specs of every other class because no matter how hard they try they aren't going to ever be equal with a "Hero class" If i'm wrong on any of this PLEASE correct me, because this is not how i want to see the game.

That's the plan*, problem solved. So:
No. *The matter of being "unlockable" is a separate topic that is not covered by statements here. :) |
