I think SoD was a mistake. It has no longevity

It’s the same thing as Retail down the line.

  • Runes are just another iteration of borrowed power
  • Old raid content becomes obsolete instantly upon next phase release.
  • New zones = expansion
  • New raids = expansion
  • New runes = expansion new abilities + rebalancing

And what’s going to happen in 2 years? TBC SoD? Then Wrath SoD? Then Cata SoD?

It was a mistake. Should have never happened.
Yes, it’s fun. But it creates this illusion of fun.

Yes, it’s fun to level to 25, cuz its quick.
Yes it’s fun to level up 10 toons (i guess), but then what? Run same 1 mega dungeon?

There is already a drop off. Already people post about roster boss issues and how guild fall apart due to lack of participation.

Yes, it’s easy to level. Easy to catch up and do 20 minute raid twice a week.

And nothing will change during P2 at 40.

I most certainly hope they didn’t waste too much time on it. It’s just a fluke. A side chick of a game tbh.

It was delivered for hungry for something new, just instead of modernized version of the game, they wanted it on old vanilla world.

Apparently, RMT took it to a whole new level in SoD. The insane desire to parse at level 25 bracket was a god-send for botters.

And what’s going to happen at the end of it?
Let’s say SoD keeps growing…It will be Retail 2.0

SoD has no longevity.

Seasons End. Phases end. You guys need to pace yourselves or re-evaluate whether your perspective is from a minority standpoint because it definitely isn’t the majority. It’s okay if you burn through game content in a week because you had more time to spare.

But stop acting like everyone is you.

Seasonal Games usually have a set life span.

-1/10

Edit: reduced your troll rating down a point due to a mention of “retail 2.0” lmao

It’s a seasonal game mode, it’s not suppose to have longevity.

I agree here, I hate how much content just gets dumpstered due to a new expansion release.

An interesting perspective. I may think on this one a bit longer.

Lol no. I see zero reason to stop running BFD when Phase 2 drops.

Yeah, you just stopped trying here.

And this is exactly why I am not playing much. My brain tells me it will just be nuked and thrown away and I am having an issue getting past that idea.

People are bored of this phase and now they start being anxious for some reasons. Make us a favor, take your anti-anxiety medications and go do something else please.

SoD has been a huge success I think that’s really undeniable. My biggest hope from SoD is that blizzard doubles down on this huge success, and gives us more. Take my money blizzard I don’t want a TBC expansion I want a completely new expansion built off classic WoW that stays true to the gameplay and ideals of Classic WoW. Let’s completely separate from the shoddy story telling that ruined retail world of warcraft, and rewrite it all. Re-imagine the stories of Illidan and Arthas and just erase stuff like the Jailer entirely

Most fun I’ve had inWoW in over a decade.

The fun is PvP. Classic raiding is a joke.

I think it’s the communities’ assumption based on what Blizz has said so far that when Season of Discovery ends, they will create permanent ‘Discovery’ servers and xfer our characters to them.

That’s about as much ‘Longevity’ that I think we’re going to get.

Whenever a thread is full of this much cope, means you struck the nail on the head op. I’ll be here for the last KT kill, last lockout but it’ll be a wasteland by then and your opinons will be common sentiment. What can you do?
