Or they simply just release 9.2 and wrap up the story months later… then 9.2.5 many months later so we have mini content droughts and 9.3 may never need to be spoken of.
I’m talking about the dying system present in many other MMOs. Recolors are a poor substitute which don’t offer anything close to the level of customization dyeable armors bring. Recolors also enable laziness in the dev team as they consider recolors to be compelling rewards instead of creating new armor models. which is why each patch has such a limited amount of new armor models.
There’s no reason to think there won’t be a 9.3. We can still assume it’s going to happen until proven otherwise.
And 9.2 will more likely release in January or February. Again no sign we know of that it’ll be a spring release, which is insanely late by any standard. I’d imagine they’d want to get it out before Blizzcon so then they can take about the future without worry of spoilers.
SL has run into issues delaying the first patches, it sucked. But still it’s not a reason to think we’re repeating WoD. Ion even said they’re not going to do that mess up again.
T&E just did a video speculating this. leaking to friendly influencers is how they begin to announce these things. Prep them to expect the hammer before dropping it.
The difference being that in that video they were arguing why there would be an 8.3 despite others peoples speculations instead of speculating there wont be an 8.3.
