Every expansion launch was the worst launch ever.
No it isn’t. You either haven’t experienced every launch or you have a short memory.
The issues are server related. Streamers play on the same servers as everyone else. The only way this conspiracy would be true is if they all played on the same private server.
After 18 years though you would think the devs would do a better job of stress testing this. Another 2 1/2 hours wasted time already. Should do like other times, just play tomorrow but free time just get shorter the older I get. Another disappointing launch.

Lol no its not, stop with the hysterics. Some of y’all weren’t around for Burning Crusade’s or WOD’s launch and it shows.
Every Blizzard launch is the worst in history…just like the last one. Everyone know you arent going to play on launch day.
I dont get why people are so upset. Its the same thing that happens every expansion.
It’s fine if you can get to the isles.
It’s just getting past Durotar/Stormwind Mythic that’s a problem.
Legion was their best (small delay at the exact launch), WoD was their worst (horde couldn’t start their garrisons for 16+ hours).
Considering server will most likely go down until after maintenance tomorrow this has potential to be their worst launch.
I mean WOD had issues with lag and logging in issues. At least you were able to get to the expansion lol. They made a big deal about Pandaria and funneling people through one gate and here we are with less boats than WOTLK to travel to a new expansion.
Agree it’s garbage. One would think after 18 years of charging people when so many other games are free to play they would get this right…but nope.
Just a small indie company, leave them alone.

The cherry on top is they had all these top streamers making videos about how great DF will be on launch and in general only for it to be unplayable except for them. Best was Preach who shilled so hard after condemning blizz only to make an hour long video praising them,
I got in on my Pally and it sucked. Lag is so bad right now… I did 3 quests in 30 minutes that should have taken 2 minutes. Then lag booted me and I can’t get back in… I think they should do a server reboot and see if that helps…
You’re not helping…People are justified in their frustration. They pay for this product.

Thats the salt that rubs the worst. Streamers are doing just fine…
I’m guessing no one remembers the WOTLK launch.
WoD still takes it, unless this lasts a wee bit longer.

I do 2 boats 2 starting areas and you were able to get there.
I remember the original launch (not classic) being plagued with hours long ques, sometimes up to 24 hours. Granted, 12 million people were trying to play at the same time.
WoD was waaay worse than this
