Drifters and World of Warcraft

In my drifters review I mentioned that it's about what happens when 3 WoW raiding guild members would be isekaied to the world where they can conquer stuff. What I mean that Nobunaga, Shimazu and Minamoto trio as depicted in this show are good examples of typical raiding guild members. Shimazu is a typical DPS, completely obsessed with taking enemy's heads, looting and winning. Nobunaga is a typical leader: knowledgeable, savvy and able to organize things; at the same time, he is no less greedy and obsesses with loot and winning. Minamoto is more complex type that keeps a little bit away from the rest.

Most issues with Modern WoW are that started to appeal less to these kinds of players. Bloodthirsty noble warriors did not get chance to take enemy castle, cut enemy general's head and loot his treasures for themselves. That is why they are so angsty all over the forums, decrying Modern WoW, much like trio of this show was angry with Octobrists for dragging their feet.

I do hope modern WoW developers would watch this show to better understand their audience.
