wow is arguably the biggest game in the world like as a game content wise, things are going to be broken, as said before, corona delayed this game, clearly.
it’s pretty obvious the timeframe of the release date with the gpu driver updates scheduled, and the way prepatch’s work, cata was 8 weeks, SL will be similar 7/8.
they accidentally put nathanos world boss up today and hotfixed it out, which is a good indication the content roll starts next week and from PTR the prepatch content is a 3/4 week roll out.

i mean we do? the class changes are done? this is the priest of now, best to learn to it all now when everyone’s learning instead of when the game comes out.

and yet you’re paying no attention to the expansion that has no resource farm, has an alt friendly catch up day 1 of expansion. interesting. watch a preach video, SL has no player power grind, many things are optional, and it’s not some sly trick that they’ll add right before launch, there’s just no resource grind tied to power for 9.1.

i will argue to to the end of time for anyone that thinks that classic spriest gameplay is more fun.
i played spriest on insta 60 servers, at this point i think it’s delusion.

If everything you say is true then maybe I’ll get it by mid January at the earliest.

But I am going to wait and see how it looks. I am not feeling it right now. Not at all. For the first time I am not looking forward to a new xpac. Every prior expac I logged onto every toon I had and read all the tooltips on spells and talents changed my binds etc. This time, I haven’t checked a thing.

fwiw, I do hope your right. I’d love to enjoy the game again rather than leave it behind for good.

I guess Blizzard had been planning that the pre-patch event would be live by now.

Same Blizzard, big same.

November 23rd.

For reals this time.

Nov 10th for the event.

Earlier than expected. I was thinking early December or next year. Fingers crossed they get it right!

Same.

I might even log in tonight.

Probably not though.

I see what they’re doing, pretty smart to release it during Thanksgiving week. Lots of people will have days off “anyways” due to Thanksgiving, so they can still binge on WoW the moment it launches.

Glad that the wait is finally over, BFA has been dead for like 6 months lmao. Looking forward to some actual fresh content/things to do besides spamming bgs.

The wife said we had 4 thanksgivings to go to that week. Shoot me plz.

I took them off and race changed to orc. I feel like the only mogs that look decent on goblins are pimp suits and I got tired of being a pimp lol.

Lol I get to be rextroy for a bit :rofl:

Sorry… I don’t hate the player, I hate the game :slightly_frowning_face:

Man the new orc options actually look so sick. I debated leveling yet another shaman as orc because of it.

But why? :flushed:

Orcs look amazing. I seriously spent 30 minutes making my orc after the race change. The discount goes for a couple more weeks I think.

I tried to use up some marks of honor and went and bought every pvp ensemble for the rogue and I got sad at the fact they all looked pretty dumb on a goblin. Any helmet on a goblin is about 5 times too big. The new orc stuff was too cool to pass up.

I already miss rocket jump though lol.

Yikes, better be carrying extra masks and hand sanitizer.

And Tums? .

Two are of the immediate family that’s been together through this whole thing. The other two are outside and we shoot a lot of guns. Hillbilly holidays ftw

I love my hunched over warlock… He was guldan before we got the wod version lol… I love the straight backed ones for shaman though.

Meh… All about that new leveling experience! Super fast, I’m cheap lol…

Proud Thrall look. I’m with you.
