Rushed content pacing is awful

it was the 18th of may, same day as prepatch.

Yeah it wasnt enough, we cried about it on the forums for a long time. i’m not stupid. We got a second merger like 6 months later

Nothing would be enough, SoM would have sealed it either way.

Also the reason they’re not keeping TBC, there’s no point, no one will play it.

have 4 servers up after tbc would of been enough. SOM destroyed classic, yeah tbc will die

I have seen private server ( i dont play them) 10 years old+ that has 5-15k players, 2-3k on at all time

only server I know of that old with that listed population fakes their numbers, and is a wrath server.

Ive seen youtube videos of a packed dalaran, it seems plausible

It’s not dead or anything, but it’s not 10k people on at once, i play on it.

no not at once for sure, i’m just saying if blizz/acti/micro would get thier act together instead of trying to lure people into what they want us to play we could have a great any expansion

First time playing tbc at 26yrs and I got no nostalgia goggles for Classic and its Xpacs and in my honest opinion:

GOOD.

TBC sucks.

TBC is one of those expansions where the box art, the story/quests lines, all make you feel like Illidan is the last boss. A lot of people in my guild aren’t interested in sunwell at all cause it feels like we’ve already beaten the game. I’m overall fine with them rushing sunwell. The raid isn’t very fun and we already know that the gear will just get replaced between level 75 and 80.

It takes all types. World content is boring because it is so easy. U r claiming running the same dungeons over and over keeps you fr getting bored.

Take what you like about mythic dungeons and out some of that in the open world and there would be more variety.

I like the dificulty if mythics. When they introduced mythics at first it was a great idea. Finally getting back to hard instances like what we had in tbc. But they went and added the speed race into it. I dont care for trying to speed through dungeons. A lot of ppl do, again, it takes all types. I just never got into the whole speed clearing thing. I think it was bad for the game. Requiring more and more, perfect comps.

As someone who’s played since day 1 the pacing has worked great for me. I never really wanted 6 months of every phase.

I think it has gone too fast, Phase 4 was rushed. I hope Phase 5 lasts at least 4-5 months before wotlk prepatch.

I think muru will be nerfed within a month

I don’t understand the plan. What are you gonna do after you rush us through WOTLK too? Interest for cata drops off a cliff.

Make Cata 8 months long max then release MoP

So funny no one is playing classic wow beyond Cata a Mop rerelease would flop for sure same with WoD.

100% accurate.
Blizzard is (as 99.999% of all companies are) focused on bottom line and shareholder returns. They will do their best to make as many customers happy as possible but in the end, it is all about how much money they make vs customer agreement on how long they run an expansion.

Who said “nobody would”

I guarantee you with a few tweaks people would absolutely play cata and mop. They were fun expansions but got a little wonky along the way.

Trying to act like what we have now in any way represents the original games like they were 15 years ago lol.
