What do you think was a mistake to add in WoW?
For me, it’s Allied Races, Shadowlands, and Dracthyr.

I feel like the concept of M+ could have been implemented better. I get the concept of endlessly scaling difficulty to keep people entertained, but the way it worked out feels more like players are being divided into more and more layers that avoid interacting as much as possible.
Not a great move for a Massively Multiplayer Game to discourage your players from playing together.

For me it’s the added difficulty over the years to raiding. It took what’s supposed to be more of a social atmosphere where friends can get together and kill bosses, to an esports level of content where to clear it’s hardest difficulty requires a roster of 90+% parsing players who don’t make mistakes and can play 30+ hours a week.
There’s no growth that can happen with the game currently. Pvp would be a nightmare for any new player coming in… m+ is toxic as can be, and requires so much knowledge of not only your class but the dungeon/affix mechanics, which again is not a recipe for success as a new player. Then you have raiding where you need a good UI, weak auras, bigwigs, on top of finding a guild to raid with that meets your schedule times, and parse at a decent enough level to hold a roster spot because you can’t have someone being carried in your raid if you want to have success.
No new player can get into this game, at least in vanilla/bc/wrath you could pug raids on the hardest difficulty. You could carry your friend who just started playing the game, whereas now you aren’t going to convince even a remotely serious guild to give your friend a raid spot as a new player.
There is no meaningful content that a new player isn’t going to feel anything other than overwhelmed or deal with toxicity from other players during the lengthy learning process the game now has before the majority of them would just quit in frustration

Every layer of raiding that’s been added has been an easier version.

Just wanna say, hmm actually (
) Sylvanas wasn’t added in WoW.

She became a badly written and uninteresting character in WoW. Warcraft 3 she wasn’t exactly interesting either, but she wasn’t nearly as annoying as she turned out to be.

Yeah I get all that. Then say what they added was this new characterization of Sylvanas that you do not like.

-Raid Finder (more so the fact in the past sweat lords like me would run it if all other options were exhausted for gear upgrades, and a majority of players would either AFK or the fact it didn’t teach anything. After messing with Alliance Raids in FF14 made me realize how horrible LFR is and how I came to the conclusion it’s probably tied for the most toxic people other than BGs.)
-WoW Token
-Scenarios, Island Expeditions, Torghast, and Warfronts. (Let me be clear I think these were fun but making them mandatory sucked the fun out of them plus leave it to Blizzard to abandon interesting gameplay concepts to now forever sit on a shelf collecting dust.)
-Changing AV and making the objectives feel useless. Turned the whole BG into a zerg fest.
-Talent change in MoP. I understand what they were going for, but it failed miserably and hilariously enough we’re back to a similar talent system before.
-Hominization with the pre-patch to Cata at the tail end of Wrath. Another full circle design that the support/hybrid classes at the time, shaman, priest, pally, druid were stripped of everything that made them unique, yet here we are with Augmentation as a support role.

Being specific on the forums is usually a mistake in my experience. People give you crap if you get too…Invested, i guess.
