Disagree, so far I’ve loved the M+ dungeons. Excited to keep gearing up to push those 15s. And the dungeons themselves are far superior to BfA’s.
Disagree, I like the fact that zone is threatening. Yes, I like it in more than a Druid, too, before anyone points that out.
Always has been the case, always will be. Pugs are a bad representation of group content.
Agreed but dailies have been awful for 16 years.
It’s been a long time since I asked myself this question and was able to say yes. Shadowlands is the first time that I’m genuinely smiling and having fun, looking forward each night to log in and play when I get home.
WoW has been a mixed bag in the fun department for years, but I basically keep playing because I want to recapture a feeling I can never get back.
Also, I could never abide by anyone getting my names. I finally got all of the ones I wanted on my Dead RP server, and my only regret will be I can only take them about two years beyond the grave.
How do I feel about it… hmmmm. I’m not excited to log on. It’s almost out of habit and chasing down all these different currencies makes me feel tired, not engaged. I can feel I’m mentally checking out. I was going to try to stick it out until I finished my covenant campaign chapters but I don’t know if I have the tenacity for that. Looking at a map full of mostly boring quests for a bit of anima is not doing it for me. Honestly I’m like forcing myself to log on which is crazy - it’s not even a month old. I need to go back to sculpting - do something that feels rewarding again in my spare time.
What expansion it is makes very little difference to me. Currently the only things SL has affected is old content scaling for soloing and the aoe cap also for soloing old content That’s it, all that other stuff you mentioned idc I just won’t do it.
I did this during the Shadowlands pre-patch, the answer was no and I unsubbed.
I returned a couple of weeks later to retry without subbing by playing the Horde side for the first time on newly created characters for free and found as long as I ignored how broken the rewards were, I was again having a ball exploring, questing, ect in the old content. So when several hit level 20, I resubbed and continue to enjoy playing them.
I plan to run at least one Alliance character and one Horde character up thru BfA to at least experience the story but if at any time I find I am not having fun, I will unsub again. But for now, I am again having a great time.
I stopped having fun, so I quit. Now I spend my time playing other games and doing other stuff. Im sure Ill play again someday but SL just isn’t for me.
Is it fun? Objectively, yes. Theres lots of progression stuff to do, the storyline is only part way completed. Theres plenty of little adventure/exploring stuff to do. Theres loads of side activities to get involved in, and things you can grind out. On top of this, you can always level up another alt on another faction and have another set of torghast anima powers and builds to mess around with. Its super fun!
But dexter seems to be at the forefront of this point: Does it feel rewarding, or that it respects your time (outside of the THREE PILLARS of wow)? yyyeaccchh… Not really?
That’s it, all that other stuff you mentioned idc I just won’t do it.
