Thank you for your time, and best of luck going forward.That being said, I for one loathed Azerite Powers/the Heart of Azeroth necklace, and I HATE the Great Vault system. Hopefully the next Dev will make something typical like making a normal amount of loot drop at the end of a dungeon.
Then they made a bad decision. A base font was still better than no font. Which is basically what happens for weeks on end now.
Questioning with the complains on systems and rewards whether him leaving Bliz was his choice...?
- Toy box = good- Essence system for progression to rank 4 - essences = good - Great vault vs the weekly disappointment box(es) in bfa = good- Everything else? = nah fam you fumbled
As much as I don't want to hate on any specific individual at Blizz currently (except Ion, who's piss poor leadership has nearly ruined this once great game), gotta agree with other posts here in that being know as the guy who made azerite armor, one of the game's most disliked features ever implemented, isn't exactly something you want to brag about.
I'm not one to celebrate someone leaving their job or put them down, but hopefully, his successor has some better ideas.
love the toy box and the vault.Sadly the other stuff was sadly unwanted, unneeded and only caused more furstration..Good luck in the future man :) may you make better stuff then, take what you can from your time at Blizz
If only pvp and pve rewards were seperate.
Azerite armor was a neat idea made awful by the way it was acquired. Even after you could target certain pieces, it still took way too long to get what you wanted.
I think this can be said for a lot of things... great ideas that did not come to be good in the way they were rolled out and managed.Same can be said for Domination gear / gems - cool idea to be able to create your own tier pieces, and make changes for different bosses / content, but again, the actual roll out and implementation was not that great.
death of the vault at last? hope he does well after this and wonder how much of how he wanted these things made it live or where changed or slowed by higher ups so wont say its all his fault but hopefuly we get better
I am sure he is a super nice guy but I really can't stand the borrowed power nonsense and the Tuesday reward day. Just up the loot drops or give us a valor vendor. I don't want a covenant ability, fancy necklace, renown buffs, azerite armor, etc. I just want regular gear and play the game.
