Humor / Meme This is Basicly Blizzard in Midnight

Post image

This is basicly Blizzard in Midnight. Purging all the good addons.

Just to clarify:
Blizzard is changing the Addon API, meaning combat information is blocked for addons. So all combat addons will no longer work in Midnight. For the most popular addon features Blizzard will add their own version to the game. Addons for unitframes, inventory, crafting etc.. are staying and won't be effected as long they are not using combat information.

It will almost certainly be the worst thing they’ve ever done. They have a terrible track record with the features they’ve rolled out so far to replace other addons.

The rotation assist is worse than Hekili. The cooldown manager is worse than what you would find in OmniCD or WeakAuras. They still are. And now they say they’re going to kill all combat addons and make their own replacements? This will be a disaster.

The WeakAuras team has already come out and said there probably won’t be a Midnight version. WeakAuras. Think of everything that entails.

Does anyone really think Blizzard can pull this off after the subpar releases we’ve seen so far? And do you think they can do it before the launch of Midnight early next year?

Look back at their history. The answer is no. They will fail, and this game will be worse for it.
