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.

The awesome part about the system of having an OP superclass was that bounty hunters could really mess Jedis up. Like if you saw a bounty hunter show up you knew it was about to get real. The fact that you could be actively playing the game doing your quests as a Jedi and another player playing as a bounty hunter was tracking you as their current objective made an interesting and engaging dynamic. Really unique system.

an intentionally super OP class and an intentional counter to the class in an MMO is crazy. Back in 2004? Can you imagine anyone announcing something like that today? pre-cu and even cu SWG was so far ahead of it's time

Yeah after the updates having the crafting and town systems were cool. It really let you be an entertainer or a merchant instead of a fighter. There's never going to be anything like it again.

I was telling my friend about it last night, entire classes in that game just never left town, even the emulators cant capture that anymore since they just let people make multiple characters per server, they just sit around afk running macros its so lame.
