It remind me of shadowland…
It’s not a 20th anniversary every expansion.
Doesn’t matter. It is all the same Hamster wheel… watch:
BfA:
- Expac starts people grind for gear their own way
- Things are timegated until 8.1
- People finish the “campaign” and head strait to heroics
- People finish heroics and head to mythics
- People grind til they cap and have to wait for season 2
- More things show up in 8.2 also timegated, but less intensely
- Gearing is MUCH easier and alts are almost capped to their main
- 8.2.2 everything unlocks and people are bored waiting around til 9.05

And the same thing for DF… and now in TWW. This doesn’t count the middle step where most progression players unsub for 3-4 months til the next season.
