Most us are pretty tolerant and understanding, but there does come a point where failure of service is a real issue, I think you are going to have to communicate with us sooner or later.
Could you please just level with the community, even it means just blaming everything regarding the 9.1 delay on covid and be done with it.
Their recent history of a 4 month opening tier definitely doesn’t work with how long and hard CN is compared to Uldir and EN.
I’m still not sure why players want to rush the patches so we can get a year+ of nothing like Wrath and MoP and WoD instead of being logical with 6 month raid tiers.
BFA and Legion had 5.5-6 month raid tiers for their mid-tiers.
The 4 month opening tier was the odd one, and that directly correlates to the end of expansion droughts (although both Legion and BFA were decent with shorter droughts, extending the opening tier could make it more even).
It’s a delay by any measure, because the start of an expansion isn’t meant to go like this, it’s meant to be quick, it’s been that way for at least four expansions in a row.
Like I don’t recall waiting that long in MOP after Mogushan Vault for Heart of Fear to come out at all. Same with Highmaul and Blackrock Foundry.
Then with Emerald Nightmare, didn’t take long for Nighthold.
I barely even remember the Ghuun raid from BFA, as to me that was just a filler raid while waiting for the real deal which was the Siege of Zandalar raid.
