This has to be the most disappointing expansion release ever

Community General Discussion
1

Unlike any previous expansion release in the past we’ve had, it seems like players are not excited for shadowlands at all. There are a few vocal players who will not stop talking about how great and wonderful is going to be. But aside from that, there’s very little hype about shadowlands as far as I can tell

The biggest reason is because we are exhausted from BFA, and the frustration of BFA… And now we have to be frustrated that the pre-patch hasn’t even been announced yet. We’ll be lucky if we even get two weeks of pre-patch, if that. but we haven’t heard anything from them period just radio silence as usual, no community team to actually talk to people

Worst part about what we’re hearing is that covenant system. It seems incredibly confusing and frustrating

incorrect, many of us are so excited we can barely sleep, and I am serious, and I know many others who are, too on my server at least. It is sooo awesome

Negative is the new cool. Its trendy to throw dirt on Blizzard. All the cool YouTubers are doing it.

Agreed.

Expansion lacks much hype and there is systems bloat on the horizon.

Sweet justice what have they done to WoW…the king of kings of the MMORPG industry?

The 'ol “I’m bored, when is pre-patch?” post #6,176.

Soon to be followed up by an equal number of
“What is this? Released too soon. This sucks!” posts.

Citation needed.

The usual GD crowd is bored with BFA so they’re absented-mindedly posting here doesn’t equal ‘people aren’t excited about Shadowlands.’

I agree with Tkz! And that does not happen much.

Op, you need to get out more. . or at least stick your head up and look about.

Beside. Kind of hard to judge an expansion before we even get IN it!

BfA. playing on launch day it was very disappointing.

many people are hyped for SL but its still a month away and we still dealing with same ole content from BfA for past few months. people are sick and tired of it. like eating the same dish 3 times a day for months on end.

Just like other expansions the forums are full of people complaining.

I feel as though people are exhausted, and generally in poor moods, due to a great deal of issues that don’t really have anything to do with WoW at all. Not meaning to excuse any of Shadowlands issues, but there’s likely more to the lack of enthusiasm for a video game than just the game itself in Oct 2020.

Your first mistake was coming to the forums expecting to see hype. There’s no bigger hive of bitterness and pessimism than here.

This. People don’t get hyped anymore, they get negative and mad and try to make the expac (or any other game/product) a failure on entry.

Shadowlands looks great and I am super hyped for it. But I’m in the vocal minority.
