This time, the World of Warcraft officials have left the players a little confused. I don’t know whether the World of Warcraft officials don’t understand the game or the officials this time understand the game and the players too much, so every weakening comes at the right time, giving the players enough gaming experience and challenge difficulty, but instantly lowering the game difficulty to allow players to get quick satisfaction, especially the pleasure of passing the level. However, these few actions of the World of Warcraft officials have caused dissatisfaction among the players, and they even feel that the World of Warcraft officials have changed the taste of the game.

Some time ago, World of Warcraft added a 15% buff to the Ulduar raid in the World of Warcraft WLK nostalgic server, allowing players to complete the game faster. This report actually caused dissatisfaction among many people, especially studios and players, after all, their profits have decreased. However, most players actually support it, after all, it can effectively improve the efficiency of completing the game, and if you really want to challenge a higher difficulty, you can also cancel this buff.

In the beginning, I actually supported this change. After all, it really improved the players' efficiency in clearing the level, so I felt that this buff would at least last for a long time, or it would not be weakened again in the short term. After all, the group copies of World of Warcraft were weakened in the later stages. In the early stages, it became easier because players had cleared the level more times and had more equipment. However, this time the weakening came a bit too quickly for players to accept.

Especially since it was only a few days after the last nerf, the official World of Warcraft will make another nerf this Thursday (August 8). This nerf is actually very simple. It simply reduces the health of enemies other than the BOSS in the Ulduar raid by 50%. Therefore, the time players spend fighting monsters will be greatly shortened, which will be reflected in the time it takes to clear the level. Although the monsters are easy to clear, it will also take a lot of time.

For players, they can quickly join a group after get off work or when they have free time. In the past, the requirements for group games were relatively high and required a certain level of skill to join the group, but now almost anyone can join the group. The increasing number of new players joining the group actually has a benefit for the group founder, which is that it can increase the group's profits, because as the difficulty decreases, the price of equipment will actually decrease, and the addition of new players can make these equipment more people to grab, so the price will be relatively higher.

However, this will actually bring a disadvantage, because if the difficulty is lowered excessively, the attractiveness of the group will decline. When Ulduar becomes a ROLL group one day, the number of people playing in the group may increase, but most players choose to give up playing in the group. Instead of spending time playing in the group, it is better to go to the wild to do tasks and collect, which will bring higher returns. At this time, more and more group leaders will choose to AFK, because the group copy has no benefits, so these people will not start a group.

Many people will say that these are all advantages, so why are there disadvantages? Because once a raid is completed quickly, it will enter a long period of inactivity, during which World of Warcraft itself will not have much fun. Therefore, we will find that every time a raid is launched, the number of online players is the highest. After two or three weeks, the number of players begins to decline because everyone has completed the raid and obtained the equipment, so they no longer play in the raid.

A long idle period is actually not good for the game and the players, because the revenue and the number of online players will decline. At this time, the expansion pack must be accelerated to connect the next group or new content. If new content is added, it will not have much impact on the players. However, if the expansion pack time is shortened so that the WLK that was originally completed in two years can be completed in half a year, how will it feel to the players? Although the official said that the WLK process will not be accelerated, who can say for sure in the future?
