This is but one of a multitude of reasons I don't RP with anyone outside of my trusted friends anymore

Regardless, it's clear that they're not "phasing pet battles out" like people seem to believe. I absolutely believe we should advocate for better balance and variety in the available battle system, but overreacting to the announcement like it's the end of the world is a bit much.

leyhunter @leyhunter.bsky.social · 18h

I think it's safe to assume that the collectors have always been more of a majority than the actual battlers, and I highly doubt Blizzard is going to go out of their way to cater to even the vocal minority that is battlers.

Also, regarding the caging changes; I for one never enjoyed having to rely on RNG to catch pets, and I sure as hell have never liked the breed system. Having to rely on one breed over another always frustrated the hell out of me. Maybe it appealed to some people, but I hated it.

I don't think it's a stretch to assume there might be a family battler for Midnight, and if there is, I guarantee it will be possible to achieve with the asinine number of battle pets already available.

leyhunter @leyhunter.bsky.social · 18h

Blizzard has already said they're not removing battling entirely and even went so far as to make family battler achievements for Kalimdor, the Kingdoms, and Northrend.

leyhunter @leyhunter.bsky.social · 18h

There's nearly 2000 battle pets currently available in WoW, I don't think it's a loss that some future pets don't battle. There are only so many combinations of moves for the different families and people tend to use the same handful of pets for them anyway. Which, yes, could use adjusting.

I really feel like the outcry and the doom and gloom about the pet battle changes is a gross overreaction and I have some Thoughts.

This is likenable to being called things like outlander/outsider in Suramar when playing as a Nightborne 😭
