Why BFA sucks

Guys I\ve finally figured it out. Blizzard spent so much money upping the graphics in wow that they didnt have enough funding to create polished content for players. This explains why BFA was a filler expansion.

Yes you're right. First I'll say this . Blizzard is no longer the company we've loved for 14 years . Since Activision and Metzen leaving. Blizzard has done nothing but put out polished turds that everyone keeps paying monthly for ( I'm one of them ) .

Which shows us that " It will be out , when it's done " is no longer Blizzard's formula.

Every part of BfA feels like a content patch of Legion. Expeditions fall flat by how quickly we must race to win without exploring the uncharted islands as Blizzard put it .
War fronts were fun until they restricted it to ilvl 320 so now alt's have a even harder time getting gear for raids.
Professions are useless since at 120 you can pretty much find better gear past 310ilvl .
Reputations are never fun to get exalted too so to see them not be account wide. Further more story lines that should be part of a game no matter what are gated by rep . So you get a beginning and slowly get to the middle before you hit a iron wall .
PvP is great for once. Probably the only reason to play BfA.

Again Mob scaling but Rare Mob drops don't scale which is disappointing since the rare loot off them isn't a guaranteed drop and the loot is wasted once you hit 120.

World Quests don't scale as they should so the player will end up collecting trash for 2 years just to vendor or scrap it all for materials to be used in professions that become useless 1-2 days after hitting 120.

PvP and the story is great . It's the only two things in this Expansion that doesn't suck the fun out . I just wish the story didn't stop abruptly and leaving me hollow.

It's not worth discussing Allied races since they're gated behind rep and one stupid quest after another. I guess you could call it Mage Tower Challenge 1.5.

So overall this has been the worst expansion that felt more like a content patch for legion that was pushed out way too quickly so that classes , quests , mob scaling and over all technical issues were fixed .

We've held Blizzard to a high standard and this time they need to address the issues and be more transparent with the community that made them this popular.

Will they do that? No , Hell no . This is a company that no longer values it's community ( just listen to the Q&A's it's all hand picked questions that don't deal with the problems in-game) and just values how much money they'll make.

We get what we pay for .....

did you see the AMS its in a blue post
I honestly just think if we wanna get to the true core of the issue its that unlike WoD blizzard spent to much focusing worrying on the future that they forgot to work on the present and what the game is at launch, thety designed a game with systems that wont fully reach there potential fun point (and in some cases work at all) till months down the road for launch.

all that leaves the game feeling unfinshed, but mark my words this is gonna be the opisite of WoD. i seriously think BFA is gonna be graet when all those systems meet there potential and we have things like 3 overlapping warfronts, multiple allied races to go for and a fixed properley tuned aazerite system, and specs; along witbh the rest of the campaing that clearley isnt finished nor close to being as good as the class hall ones yet.

until then PvP level maghar and farm mounts do chivos and other crazy !@#$

Since Activision and Metzen leaving


Uh, you realize Metzen left in Sept. 2016, just after Legion launched and he was Creative Director at Blizzard during Cataclysm, Mists of Pandaria, Warlords of Draenor, and launch Legion (you know, before that expansion was good).

Metzen received a lot of hate himself during WoD particularly for where the story had gone and all the post WotLK issues in that department often when his way.

They upgraded the graphics?

You can not argue against the improvements in graphics with the engine available.
We have many complaints but come on.

That's quite possibly the dumbest and/or most ignorant thing I have read all week. Kudos for lowering my IQ.
Don't forget the music. I love the graphics and music this expansion

Also, one who says stuff like this but doesn't specify why it lowers his iq is just a troll begging for attention. He had a bad day and needs someone to ask him why.

I get it . Blizzard is a business and is in it for the money just like every other company. BUT.....They should be held accountable for their actions or inaction just like customers would be towards Samsung (note7) . If it's broke come out and say it's broke , why and how it's going to be fixed. Don't pick out questions that dodge the Elephant in the room .

I'm naive and jaded to think Blizzard would come out accept the current state of WoW and explain what is happening behind the scenes to correct issue that are in-game.

We the players got them to this height in popularity . So we deserve to be treated better.
Bfa sucks because they give you a month of rep grind followed by a month of leveling and call that content because they didn't include very much of it. Roughly a month to cycle through a single warfront for instance that takes longer to pop than it does to complete and for less reward to boot. Just one of the many readily available examples. Missions are anemic...etc etc.
the hunter class used to be viable. now, the stats are all screwy, the class is broken, and not viable in pve, nor pvp. if i get on my lesser geared sub rogue, i get instant invite, and if on my hunter, i am told they are not viable and passed over. well? i have played this toon for over 700 days (not hours) and i know for a fact, that the hunter class sucks hind tit from a dry dog, so because of this, i am deleting the game entirely off my computer, cancelling all future subscriptions, and not looking back. the heck with this novelty game, it sucks
Did you mis-post Yrogerg? Your response has nothing to do with the thread lmao
you keep paying $15 a month so you must like sucky games.
I came back after quitting at th beginning of Legion. I'll admit that the content is trash and i am bored AF just after 1.5 months. Good bye WoW.
Nah the art and music departments are totally separate and are carrying this expansion on their backs. They are like the only team who got it right this expansion on everything consistently, minus like a few armor bugs and stuff here and there that are easily just hotfixed.

All of the systems and features are just trash. I find myself enjoying doing stuff in my garrison on this character more than any feature in BfA. That is really telling.
I am so !@#$ing disappointed about bfa..the lamest xpa I've ever experiecned since 2004.you could sayMoP was lame too.but bfa is worse. God what a dumb people they are

But...the content is incredibly polished, what are you talking about?

It's the azerite and loot system that has problems. That's not content, the actual content (questing, dungeons, raid) is great.
