Well, it’s not the flagship anymore. And based on the feedback here and other places, the game’s been going in the wrong direction since 40-man raids were got rid of.
They look like something you’d expect in a Disney/Pixar movie.
Also, isn’t MS buying Acti-Blizz? They’re typically more open to completely changing games they buy, so I wouldn’t take housing off the table if that panned out.
I think the player housing ship has sailed.
They’d rather spend their energy endlessly reworking (and fighting against) the things they’ve already made.
I rather raid than get player housing. I don’t actually believe that player housing would cost a raid tier and that it’s a lame excuse by Ion to even claim that. Both can exist and be created simultaneously as there’s little to no overlap between the two.
Garrison’s weren’t the reason WoD was short a raid tier. Class order halls had no impact on the number of raids that there were in Legion. While neither are player housing per se, they mostly served the same purpose.
I think people were taking that raid tier comment way too literally.
