To say that our feedback is invalid or we are “overeacting way too much” is just bad faith arguing and trolling at this point, we all here pay to have access to this product and we do have our right to voice our opinions on whats going to happen in the next 4 months.
This is a scorched earth approach, while baking in certain addons/weakauras (i.e Damage meter, cooldown manager, ui edit mode) into the base game is nice but those default versions of said certain addons/weakauras are behind the curve compared to addon version of them and simply need time to make improvements first before we can even think about putting the addon version on the chopping block.
There are people that have Alpha/beta access, we can see this stuff before release and there are some UI stuff that we have on live right now.
If your a healer, The default raid frames is not good, if someone has a dispellable debuff, you have to squint to see the debuff icon, cant move it or resize it, as it stands its made for ants. I see that they are making changes to it but its a wait and see situation.
UI edit mode while nice, its still behind compared what Bartender offers.
Cooldown manager just needs some time in the oven.
As for the ones getting added in Midnight, Damage meters only track DPS, damage done, healing done and HPS while Details can track more then what Blizzard damage meters offers. I havent seen much of the name plate improvements and I think Blizzard’s dbm is alright but granted I dont have alpha so I’m seeing what I’m seeing from people that do have access.
