Pretty long content drought after a very long opening to an Xpac, honestly at this point 9.1 is going to be like putting a bandaid over a bullet hole.
We get a few new daily’s and some new zones people are more than likely going to get bored of pretty quick because it will all be the same thing.
The only two interesting things will be the new raid and new dungeon. So they will be good once a week I guess.
Aside from that it’s going to be exactly the same but with out fixing up any issues we had with previous systems so they will still be frustrating.
For me the biggest tester I’ve got running about the integrity of blizzard will be the release date, I wouldn’t be shocked if they drop this patch on July 20th to bully the new competition of amazons new worlds beta release which seems to be a move blizzard really like pulling.
At this point even blaming covid would seem a little disingenuous and I’d say it would be more poor time management.
Like why on earth are blizzard letting their flagship game rot to death.
We’ve started to see a migration of people to FF14 which I would only say currently is a better game because they actually seem to innovate a little bit more and not just recycle the same content over and over again (still never playing this garbage)
Honestly I just feel like they’ve forsaken the game and I’d love to know what the hell is stalling everything so hard

What is happening with retail is so many employees at all levels have left the company like rats leaving a sinking ship that work has ground to a standstill.

The new dungeon is pretty much instantly obsolete if you start running Mythic+.
Woohoo!

Either they don’t care, nobody works there anymore, or the interns are running the place.
New World looks ok but Amazon is making it…so, that gives me pause. The real game to watch is Ashes of Creation.

Honestly, my eyes are all over Palia. Ashes of Creation looks…interesting. But nothing has really gripped me.
Palia, on the other hand. That game has been a big call to me, more than most others. And depending on how well those developers manage to get the game to work, that might be where I focus next.

At this point I’ll play anything new that comes out that is even attempting to be an MMO that doesn’t look like anime characters running around
I’ve actually got to play new world at least and really liked it so I’m set for a bit
I’m not even thinking about ashes because it’s so far away

I’ve see 1 very small video of that so I’m also holding my breathe
Yeah, only one video, but the concept is what I want. Not to mention the fact that, unlike the other MMOs out there, it’s privately funded which means no Kickstarter shenanigans. So it has my attention infinitely more than Ashes of Creation for that reason alone.

they think they can survive without it, I’d say.
If that is the case, it’ll be funny watching how that works out for blizzard if and when they run this game into the ground and players who are playing a couple of their games get tired of the crap and just move entirely to another game company who doesnt treat customers like this, lol

pepole wanna do WOW classic some time is funs did u try
Ive wondered if they arent trying to wean players off retail and trying to get us to migrate to classic and want to try to reboot the game.
They got the wrong guy in charge if that were the case. lol.

No one knows but Blizz.
And its not even a few zones… Not even a zone… Its an addition/area as they put it.
They’ve really crapped the bed so far.
Hope Jbrack isn’t gonna turn a blind eye. He seems to have too much faith in Ion and crew.

Turns out when you fire tons of people during record profit quarters, those people don’t have a reason to remain loyal to a company that pays poorly and treats them as expendable.

I agree too little and too late. The theme of 9.1.
