![]() ![]() Everyone went there to discuss with this big guild strats, builds, gear sets, etc. Their guild web site (curse-gaming now curse) became a hotspot kind of like ElitistJerks is today. ![]() Curse was originally one of the biggest most powerful guilds in vanilla WoW. A lot of hardcores who are pumping 80+ hours a week into raiding had time to sit back and create addons. Addon developers in WoW came as part of an accident. The only problem now is Rift needs to attract some addon developers. This is of course after 7 years of Deadly Boss Mods. Today we’re seeing the formations of a Deadly Boss Mods in the game with all bosses emoting moves, soft pink warnings in the middle of your screen when some phase transition comes, and in the next patch a detailed description of boss moves. The addon was so good and so precise that Blizzard never felt the need to add their own version of it in the game. It was an addon that every single person had. ![]() The original Curse version of Deadly Boss Mods was first distributed in 2004 and became the single most popular addon for the game. Addons are essentially a band aid solution for what some people feel is a problem in the game.Ī strong example of a “band aid” solution in WoW is Deadly Boss Mods. It is people getting creative with the game to make something that the game needs. Whenever Blizzard has developed a new feature that replaces a single popular addon they are more often than not hiring the services of that addon developer or paying them for previous work. They have been for Blizzard and they will be for Trion. I can play competitively with or without them in that game.Īddons are a window into development. You don’t have to use them, but they’re there if you want them. The addon ‘played the game’ for players so much that Blizzard eventually decided to break the addon by blocking some of the features of the addon.īut in truth, this is the most extreme case. The doodles would tell you wear to go and would appear as you needed to go. Eventually everyone was required to have this addon to raid. It allowed you to draw doodles on top of the game and display it to anyone else with the addon. AVR was for it’s time the deal breaker for a lot of guilds progressing through content. ![]()
