Hope 8.3 comes out 3 or 4 days before Christmas

Every patch has a drought after 5 months.

Perhaps the humans that work at Blizzard deserve a break too?

:thinking:

There are still humans that work there? I thought they were all slowly replaced by AIs by now.

Iā€™d also argue 8.1 was the smallest patch in a LONG time. We got what? Invasions? Thatā€™s it right?

The cloak stuff alone is already more than 8.1 had and is mandatory to progress on as soon as it drops since missing a week sets you pretty far behind (week 1 gives you like a +4 cloak or something according to wowhead if you do everything).

People donā€™t play WoW a lot over the holidays. I have not once in my like 5 years of raiding raided more than like 1 day out of the 4 around christmas (t/th week before and t/th week of). We did the poll two weeks ago and only 15 people out of 24 could make the 26th if they WANTED to (like 9 for christmas eve). Too many people are out of town or working 50+ hour weeks or whatever to sit down and play WoW consistently over break.

hence me saying a good idea for the patch to come out 3 or 4 days before christmas ā€¦ between chrismas and the new years holiday alot of us has free time to play wow .

and tbh , nothing nicer than playing wow while watching home alone ,die hard, eating cookies drinking coffee while your golden retriever sits next to you . its always nice looking at the christmas tree and the ornaments on/around it while its snowing outside

Same here. I had to get off WoW Classic for 2 months before college and when I came back., I was guildless, level 30, and barely any Alliance left. Experience ruined.

ā€œI donā€™t want to play Classic because I have to ignore my family and friends etc so itā€™s a no-go.ā€

ā€œPlease launch 8.3 before the holiday vacation so that I can ignore my family and friends for new WoW shinies.ā€

Please no.

I canā€™t imagine anyone likes new patches dropping when most of the office is on vacation.

This. After the disaster of Beta for Azeroth, I am more than happy waiting until itā€™s ready. Thereā€™s quite a bit in 8.3 that actually looks rather good, especially the Horrific Visions. We should prefer things taking longer for actually GOOD content than rushed out tripe.
