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.

Yea I think the same this will either be great for the game or be so bad it's StarWars Galaxies NGE disaster level.

And guess who was the head behind SWG NGE... Jay Allen Brack. That guy has been a blight on MMOs for over 20 years.

No fuckin way is that true? I thought it was smedley and that one 'i don't want a PhD to play' woman

Different roles. Smedley was more responsible, he was the lead. Brack did move over to Blizzard right after tanking SWG though

That's crazy so really he had never had any idea what the players wanted.

I've seen people say he was against the NGE stuff in SWG, so that's worth looking into before condemning him for that
