So a week of 9.1. Thoughts? Good or bad?

Timeless Isle was way better. This is not even close.

How so? Outside of the mindless grinding on frogs on TI which eventually got neutered, and the PvP (which got nerfed as well, IIRC), it is functionally the exact same plus a quest line…which TI did not have.

It’s the exact same thing with more time gated crap, a rep grind and a zone to afk and farm rares and treasures.

Im not running enough of it to make any judgement calls. Just like with BFA, Ive been on auto pilot for a while now. Not even reading quest descriptions. Just going to point B, getting it done and back to A to turn it in.

Multiple bosses. Multiple events / mini bosses that were way better. Layout was better. Idk how you even compare this to timeless isle. If frogs are all you got out of TI then idk what you were doing.

Mechagon 2.0 with less to do. I can do the full sweep on the island in about ~25 minutes a day, and it’s not fun enough to do every day, maybe 2 times a week if I’m feeling bored of my other games.

The codex being 12,000/12,000 locked is a huge joke too. Have to actually dump to keep repping up is bad design. I’d have rathered the rep and resource locked behind the 3 dailies and invasions than a list of vague run around the island and pick things up nonsense.

i’m having a lot more fun than i have been in the past couple of months and the raid/tazavesh aren’t even out yet, thank god i don’t let other people’s bad opinions ruin the game for me. i think for myself

I think we’re less than a week in, and still haven’t seen all the content, and that you’re way overreacting.

I also like it so far.

Nobody is asking anyone to not think for themselves. Overwhelming negative opinion of a thing doesn’t negate how you feel, but it is important all the same. If blizzard doesn’t want to keep bleeding subs they need to figure out what they are doing that isn’t capturing people anymore and fix it. If too many people leave eventually you won’t have a game to play anymore, enjoying it or not.

Which Korthia has.

Subjective, at best and Korthia has as well

Idk what to tell you bud. Korthia feels like trash in comparison. Sure subjective. Most of my guild and friends not bothering. I guess it’s subjective trash for all of them to.

It’s like some movie reboots/remakes. They still have the characters and the same general idea but the remake sucks. If this is a remake of TI then this remake blows. No passion. Poor layout. Does not have that original Blizzard touch to it. Just because something has something that does not mean that it feels like it was done with passion and it was done right.

Yes? Other games let us so why is Blizzard so stuck in making it impossible for us to enjoy more than one character, especially when expansions are now based around playing multiple characters to view the entire story.

All I gotta say is, it’s pathetic and saddening that this is what WoW has come to.

When was the last time you had fun?

Rare spawns were much more frequent on TI, for starters.

My only nitpick would be how slowly the relics accumulate compared to the anima needed to upgrade the covenant pieces. I find grinding mobs boring. I’d much rather do quests, so maybe one answer would be more than only three dailies. Other than that, which isn’t a deal breaker to begin with, it’s a decent patch. I’d give it a three of five. I can log in for an hour or two, finish what I need to do, then my day is done. There’s no incetive for me to stay on longer than that.

I wasn’t expecting to like the world content part of the patch, but Im enjoying week one korthia. The artifact easter egg hunt was fun, I dunno if it’ll still be fun on the 2nd or 3rd run, but i’m not sure if I plan to find out. Alot of the content is improved for me personally since I’ve made bank on korthite crystals, and speed geared an alt. Torghast is objectively better then it was, and I think that opinion will be more prevalent in a few weeks when everyone has the box to at least 100 points, torghast autoloot should just be in the game at large.

Logged in today for the first time in months. Didn’t even leave the airport. Looked at my guild 4 ppl online looked at the chat history over the last week. Literally 3 ppl have talked in the last 2 weeks 1 of them being me today lol . Saw prolly 15 post in 30 seconds WTS… Logged off back to tbc

Korthia is something to do…. At best. It feels as hollow as everything else blizzard has been pumping out.
Lol pumping out. That won’t work. Trickling out is better

Awful. Uninspired. Lackluster. Reeks of desperation to maintain their player metrics. Timegating is an ugly color on any game. It proves that their content isn’t able to maintain player interest over time. Ungodly amounts of rares on wackadoo timers =/= content. Depressing lack of actual content considering this took 7-8 months. The worst I’ve ever seen and it just further solidifies the fact that I don’t know where Blizz’s direction is pointed… but I don’t think I like it.

Week 2 will at least give raiders and m+ folk something to do other than sit afk at spawn points.
