Due to lots of people being upset at the 9.1 release delay I am going to release the real reason…
COVID-19.
We were all home for a long time on quarantine. People became super WoW players because it was available all day and a lot of people were stuck without anything else to do.
The content in 9.0 was completed in record time! Now people, like they should, want more.
Give some congratulations to yourselves…you all actually completed content faster than ever.
But seriously…hurry up and release 9.1, Blizz. We are dying out here!!!
How is it not true? Lots and lots of people were home and quarantined which allowed for more time to play games. Did you play more during quarantine? You will probably say “no” because you don’t want to prove my point. And now you’ll double down on your “no” as to refute the prior sentence.
The end cinematic, completely broken quests, world boss and zone lag, end progression mask runs weren’t play tested well. Place holder art on mob ability indicators. Corruption abilities needing a 50% nerf post launch.
The prepatch where somehow a slide whistle sound was added to the turtle match game.
Pretty obvious things were significantly breaking down well before covid hit.
This is bad logic. So some people who were at home collecting double unemployment are the reason why the content “was completed so quickly” and was the cause of the substantial time to 9.1 release?
I disagree with the logic. While the pandemic may be part of the reason for the delay, that has little to do with limited size of the expansion. I would say the small footprint of the expansion has far more to do with people completing content quickly than people at home.
