I think multiple voices are always better but one is better than none. (OccupyGStreet)
Remember when he basically told the player base they had to play better? Or nerfing paladins to the ground?
To be clear, I did encourage players to take dungeon strategy more seriously. That wasn't sarcasm. (OccupyGStreet)
If you refer to the origin of the "to the ground" meme I was apologizing to players for not announcing a nerf. (OccupyGStreet)
And I hadn't announced the nerf because I was on vacation. I wrote "to the ground" at a vineyard. (OccupyGStreet)
Anyway, extreme sarcasm is probably a defense mechanism of mine. (OccupyGStreet)
But I like that sarcasm helps convey that I don't take myself too seriously. (OccupyGStreet)
It's rough on non-English speakers though. Chinese journalists had me raise my hand when I was being sarcastic. (OccupyGStreet)
Because for them this shit is SO FREAKING SERIOUS. They forget that even great games are activities of leisure. (OccupyGStreet)
For me, most importantly, multiplayer games are about hanging out with friends. (OccupyGStreet)
Sure, not all players would vote, but a good bunch would, which should be very valuable data on said subject.
A public poll has many problems but targeted queries can be very effective. We use them. (OccupyGStreet)
Curious what kind of problems. I think that presetting the proper expectations for it to the players would solve most of them
It's not a random sampling, potential for influence, potential for fraud off the top of my head. (OccupyGStreet)
Game Design
Players micromanaging dev teams is obv silly. But concerns over individual leads seem... less silly.
It's still really hard for players on the outside to reverse engineer which lead led to which change. (OccupyGStreet)
That's why I always advise players to just stick with the change itself. (OccupyGStreet)
Poll - Raid Loot Method
Which raid loot method is your guild using now that Personal Loot has been improved?
Warcraft Movie Props
