I mean, really, there's nothing quite like spending quality time with the format to make you understand just how terribly bad it is for storytelling.

Cire27:
Well I'm sure Knaak is to blame for at least half of WoW's bad storytelling.

Ozymandias:
This was a big quote that killed my excitement:

Ain't never been excited for a genre where tinkering with a spreadsheet is good advice.

Blue Kitty:
Also the new Pokemon, I mean LOOK AT THIS FUCKING TRAILER

Yeah, there's a lot of blame to spread around on that one. Big reason I recommend spreadsheets is that a lot of people just give advice by pulling numbers out of their butt and they're often wrong. Still, it does bother me that a lot of the community use things like having a "bad" build to justify acting like dickwads. It takes a nice tool and turns it onto a scourge with which to mock casuals for playing a video game without using an outside app, which is silly. On the other hand, a lot of the current game mechanics are amazingly counterintuitive. I don't consider it a feature when one weapon can come from a higher level boss, have a higher damage range, higher stats AND lets you swing more often... but can still be a downgrade. Blizzard says they're putting a lot of work into making it more of a non-issue with the next expansion, and I wish them good luck on that front, but I'm not really holding my breath either.
