Does this seem like Eight Months' Work?

Just wondering how you guys feel.

Mechagon and Nazjatar feel like eight months’ work and then some.

  • Two moderately-sized zones with secrets
  • achievements,
  • recipes,
  • azerite powers,
  • a mega-dungeon,
  • a raid and
  • two new playable races along with
  • flying.
  • meta mounts from new zones

Am I missing something?

All I see is

  • a tweak to torghast
  • A new M+ scoring system
  • Maw invasion(s)
  • Small new zone
  • Mega dungeon
  • Handful of new quests.
  • (edit) new raid

Maybe I’m crazy, what do you guys think?

I think maybe something happened last year that heavily hampered development time. I wonder what it could have been. :thinking:

Just wondering.

The new raid comes out tomorrow, but yes, I agree. It’s lackluster.

The quality of Shadowlands is NOT because of Covid-19. They were developing it BEFORE the pandemic started.

Yeah seems like a huge management issue, alot of of high up developers quit stating they did not like the direction the game was taking.

I mean if alot of people quit than you cant get nearly as much content out.

The same zone but all shadowy? Is that what you’re asking? Or am missing something potentially HUGE?

Okay, you obviously haven’t been. Carry on.

It’s impressive how all these things are also included in 9.1 but they seem to be left off your list. Convenient?

Also, azerite powers was a plus? Adding more trash to a trash system doesn’t make it better.

They added something like 45 new mounts with 9.1. That beats a crab and whatever the heck players got out of Gnome central.

If you’re going to make comparisons, at least try to make them properly.

I’ve set foot in the rift and mostly seen extra rares and treasures. I haven’t seen any storyline or anything which makes Korthia go to the next level.

Not sure what this dude is on about. You’re obviously not getting any extra meaningful content with the rift. Looks like he’s just trying to make you look bad.

I’m no Blizzard shill but it isn’t fair comparing 9.1 to 8.2.

Compare 9.1 to 8.1

Covid excuse does not matter and is irrelevant. Blizzards competition did not suffer, in fact they even gained users while blizzard lost.

What exactly are you talking about?

The only Ven’ari questline was about her leading us into Korthia and then returning back to her refuge.

What is this hidden questline?

Either there was less ppl working on it which means good job or it was a complete failure in management.
