Anyway - my point is, beta may be sooner than people think even if the build is titled 'alpha'.

Alpha Testing is a type of software testing performed to identify bugs before releasing the product to real users or to the public. Alpha Testing is one of the user acceptance testing. Beta Testing is performed by real users of the software application in a real environment.

Please tell me that's not why you say that.

BFA wasn't made during a pandemic,lawsuit and employees unmotivated or refusing to work due to lack of change in the company.
If you think DF is going to be out this year you're delusional. Season 4 hasn't even started yet, even if they announced season 4 to come out in June a November release still wouldn't be possible

He's probably saying November because the leak that got everything right in detail predicts a November release. Of course rleease dates can change quickly depending on the progress but I wouldn't say that Season 4 is a strong argument either, there's no rule that states how long a season has to be and quite frankly not many people even care if the season lasts 3 or 9 months.

You are not for wow, on a wow forum, in a wow thread.
I remember when i was 12 years old i disliked spyro a lot. I stopped playing it. However weirdly enough i dont spend my days in a spyro subreddit telling everyone who plays it to go seek help. Fuck me man that sounds like an absolute waste of my life.

Interesting, and irrelevant comment... good combo.

Umm, no. I didn't even know about that weird set of dates. That one leak think his name is Scaleface at the moment. Everything he listed came true AND he had cinematic screen shots and a pic of the new race. He predicted that LK classic would drop in September and Dragonflight would be in November of '22. It sounds like Hopium I know but when you think that Shadowlands is basically WoD 2.0 and had enough manpower gutted from it to put more eggs into the Dragonflight basket then it doesn't sound as ridiculous. Also seasons length tend to be based around raid tiers and since we don't have another one coming there's no guarantee 3 or 4 are going to be the traditional length of time.

Ahyeah, the mount. I knew I missed something.

People should either play or not and keep quiet. All of these people raging over a game they don't play think they're "passionate players who want the game to be good" but they should really just move on.

Nah m8, I'm no Tyrande to stay silent.

God, some people on this site are not just sufferers of ex-partner Syndrome, they are abusive ex-partners.

I am passionate about the game and want it to get better via CONSTRUCTIVE feedback, y'all are just being pissy little children because the game gets continued content and you don't have the strength of character to move on with your lives.

Beyond sad, for sure.

Umm, No. The talent revamp will be way easier then that. Take a shaman for instance. Currently there is only one healing spell for the non healing specs. There used to be almost all of the spells for all specs. The thing the talent tree added was things like plus damage or plus healing with a couple added spells. Now you can chose to add back healing spells in the class tree and chose talents to buff damage in the spec tree. The cool thing about the old way was being able to have true hybrid specs. I personally enjoyed having healing spells available as I dps'd. Once you got into the groove on the encounter you learned when you could waste a global to help the healers out. The opposite was also true if you were a healer and could help burn an add. Anecdotal as this might be I think pruning all these spells from each spec really hurt the game. The new "old" talent tree should give people the option of bringing this back.
