dwedo: The next stage is someone comes to your house and plays your character for you.

maybeactuallyatoad: Why play the game if you don't want to play the game?

ECDBRACINGLEAGUE: gearing up for console baby

Jchmcom: Everyone is now a classic Frost Mage.

Kerek77: The people who use it for accessibility issues will eventually be jilted by the GCD penalty and feel like they’re being punished. Blizzard will eventually remove the GCD penalty altogether…

SpaceDad87: it's turning into a Mobile rail rpg...

Magrenil: "We're going to take the game out of the game"

mate5870: I've been playing with my autistic brother for several years, and he's fascinated by this game. Unfortunately, due to his autism, he struggles to perform proper DPS rotation cycles. So I always spend hours creating macros for him... I think this change will truly be appreciated by players like my brother. Thanks to those who made it happen.

Bridenal: This would have been amazing for me as a stroke survivor and can’t use his right hand correctly but I got a left handed razer naga and figured it out myself, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be helpful for other people who can’t use one or both of their hands properly

kirival117: Was this supposed to come out on April Fool's?!

drumjoey: My guild raid team had has an elderly guy in the group. He doesn't parse high numbers, but he knows his role, and always shows up with cauldrons. He also farms tons of mats for the raid teams bank. I never thought that he maybe would use addons like this. And to tell you the truth, I think it's totally cool with me. He is our friend and he loves being a part of the team.

scruffybob6366: "People LOVE vanilla, why?"

"It HAS to be the one button rotations! Implement!"

-Blizz, probably

TripleD94: Just Imagine the Button is named frostbolt/Fireball /s

tylerholston4063: A lot of casual people love QoL features like this. My grandpa has been using this addon on his warrior for years now. He loves it. He’s not a hardcore player. He does pug raids and a handful of low key mythic here and there. It’s fun for him and it’s fun for others. That’s why the addon is popular

Teapotion: Lots of players want this that’s why hekili and GSE exist. If this helps players feel less of a burden when grouping up for example, they are disabled then I’m all for it. There will be a GCD penalty which will end up working out at about 20% less damage than an optimally playing person, so it’s all good. If I get to play with some of my less confident friends because of this, I’m all for it.

jeremysumpter8939: I think this is big for disabled people, some people can't handle 40 keybinds with whatever disability they have but would like to enjoy this mmo

ewhitey18: Idk why people are bothered by this…if you don’t like it don’t use it lol it’s not removing the skill gap at all because you will be doing like 20% less damage with it turned on vs someone hitting the exact same buttons with it turned off. It’s great to learn a new spec then turn it off once you’ve learned it.

cowboy_henk: GW2 classes all have builds that are low intensity or one button and they do not do as much damage as a real build, but it offers a nice way to learn raid mechanics without playing a concert piano at the same time, and I love it for jumping on steam deck and doing open world solo stuff. They let people with disabilities play the story content. They also offer basically zero pvp viability

RaimaNd: Remember that people used castsequence macros for that in dragonflight and blizz absolutely hated it because it was against everything the game stands for... well well well.

bejoyrn9a: As someone who purely plays for gameplay reasons and havent watched a cutscene since mop, my question is who the fu** cares? The people using this option will do worse then whoever «masters» their specc but they will be able to play it at a decent level. Rotation helpers have been a thing for ages and extremely popular, i cant find a single thing that makes this integrated being a bad thing. I understand people being against this but just tell me what changes for you with this integration?

mrborgeusborg1541: The addon that reccomends what button to press exists and has existed for a long time. To have a button that suggests what to press I actually support.

The 1 button rotation assistant.. I don't like that part of it.

xpapakahn94: Its not for good players or anything. Its for people who are new or want to learn rotations. People who are disabled. Etc. Its a great move for those. They want to phase out popular addons so you dont need them. A lot of people use hekeli for many reasons

qq-jy3pe: He literally said its an accessibility feature, this will make it so some people who are unable to play games like this can now join in

bernieboy: Why is anyone surprised? Blizzard hasn't had a good idea for over a decade

abdielmendez7769: You: Who’s asking for this!?

Hekili Priority Helper mod: 56,181,207 downloads

snowflora1247: I mean Hekili already exists and doesn’t give players an edge over people who aren’t using it. I really don’t think this is a big deal at all.

jamesknight7194: tihs being baked into wow will be great for diabled ppl or challenged people etc, i like the option to use it, i wouldnt myself, im sure it would probly be off sometimes when a diff ability would be better, but i think its an amazing idea without having to use an addon and tweak this and that and everything else about it, itll help alot of ppl enjoy wow again alot easier and smoother
