Fury Incarnate Releases September 5

Very formulaic. Invasions + Rares + Soon-to-be-obsolete currency. Yawn.

Damn, expectations are high for x.x.7 patches.

Rapid mini patches between major content patches are a good thing. It is even giving you a decent amount of time to finish said content without making you rush yourself.

This guy: "If Blizzard really cared about their players they'd just release 32-boss raids every 5 minutes."

The content cycle is the best it's ever been right now.

He is correct tho.

These mini-invasion events are now overwhelming in DF. What, will we get 3 additional open world assaults in 10.2, 10.2.5 and 10.2.7?
And not only that, they are entirely useless. The Dragon Isles are full of absolutely worthless open world assault things now.

Like, I would happily trade in all the open world events of 10.1 (Fyrakk, timerift, dreamsurge) for a 1 or 2 boss mini-raid with some actually interesting rewards.
They released this roadmap last year, even if all the assets are reused I wouldn't care, these open world cancer cells should stop spreading.

Right. So instead of playing Starfield, I'm gonna play more tired as fuck WoW shit.

Because Blizzard is desperate to hang on to players. DF started really good but went down hill really fast. So Blizzard is just desperately bombarding players with bribes like free transmogs and trader post and racial armors and what not.

Like...if everything was same old same old, Blizzard wouldn't give a shit as per usual. All this crap costs money and time to make, and Blizzard is never generous when they don't have to.

It's a fucking half-way patch. You know what we would have got before they committed to these?

Literally fucking nothing.

So unless your argument is "literally fucking nothing is better than something," you're just arguing from a place of entitlement.

He is very correct. Can't be all happy and throwing up skittles in the air when the crap isn't fun.

Literally fucking nothing would actually be leagues better if we got something meaningful later with that freed up dev time.
That's my argument.

We are basically getting inferior Island Expeditions every mini-patch and last time I checked people hated those.
Somehow making them even more shit each time is such a refreshing take from Blizzard, apparently.

"I don't like this content so the very idea that anybody likes this content is alien to me."

Explain to me, again, how this is anything other than entitlement?

Explain to me why you are entitled for having a new open world assault designed for every single patch then. Or is that not entitlement at this point?
How many do we need exactly? We had one in every single patch so far in DF.

10.1.7 is just the point where the cup ran over for me.
Literally everything added in this expansion as 'side' content (not Raid or M+) is dogshit.

I expect Mechagons. I expect Torghasts. I expect more than the 5th or so open world AoE farming afk simulator.
I'm not gonna say that there are no people who 'like this content' but I am gonna say that those players are objectively speds.

Blizzard literally does the bare minimum now as far as 'new content' goes and they get away with it.
For some reason people who hated Island Expeditions and Warfronts now cheer them on cuz they are open world. Absolutely fucking lunacy.

But I guess I'm wrong. I bet people loved AoE farming the Cobalt Assembly so much during the 1st week of DF that this is now the golden standard for new content.

Why are you out here making absolutist arguments?

"Everybody" doesn't need to enjoy every fixture of every content patch. There have been full on systems that I have simply never engaged with because the gameplay loop didn't entice me. I'm okay with that. I'm not going to argue that because Blizzard introduced a few things that I didn't like that they're wasting development time on the stuff I do like. It's fine to be less-than-enthused with this content if it's not for you but it's not okay to demand Blizzard literally do nothing instead. It is something and I will always argue that something is better than nothing.

He's not talking about enjoyment - he's talking about shit content, and he's right. The content's shit, but you might still enjoy it. But it's shit. And it's been like that since day 1 of DF, sadly, so the soup event was a sign of things to come. Do you enjoy the soup event? Fair play, you can enjoy it. But it's shit - a low effort, mind-numbingly boring repeatable shit. That's the argument.

"in this world, nothing is certain except death and taxes and people complaining about everything little thing they can on MMO-Champion"

It's a fucking *.7 patch, mainly used to catch up gear wise for the upcoming season...

It's shit to you. You forgot that important part.

lmfao and who elected you the sole arbiter of content quality?

These mini content patches aren't designed to give us Torghasts or Mechagons. They're piecemeal to hold us over for larger content patches (you know, the ones that include Torghats and Mechagons?), something which we really haven't had with any real consistency before. I'll take repeatable content that makes it easier for me to gear up alts over the numerous content droughts we had in Shadowlands any day of the week.
