    It's so cute that people think BFA will be out in 2018.

    Look. ICC was out for over a year, they said there'd never be a content drought that long again.

    Then there was SoO, which was out for 14 months. They said there'd never be another content drought that long again.

    Then came HFC, which was out for 14 months. They said there'd never be a content drought that long ever again.

    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. So far we've been fooled 3 times.

    Hope you guys like Antorus, because history shows its gonna be around until at least January 2019.

    That's why we're getting six new races and revamped levelling.

    Something like between May/September 2018 would be ok I guess. January 2019 seems like too far off.

    Blizzard is playing it smart, randomly generated content for longer replayability. Once you got a good system running you have less work creating content and can release faster. I hope the campaign/story is any good! It feels a bit generic so far, mainly because it lacks a main villain (at the start).

    That was the exception, not the rule.

    How was Dragon Soul an exception?

    I’d say based on history that November is possible as the earliest date. I think January is the latest though.

    every expansion has been released in the fall window aside from burning crusade, which was originally slated for fall but delayed. They are no doubt planning for a fall release again.

    it could always be delayed of course, but I doubt it

    Considering they are talking about beta being out at the start of next year, and how far along the development seem to be? Close to a year of beta? I have my doubts about that.

    They literally confirmed it somewhere, they said no release date but 2018.

    so...

    its not cute, it's a fact.

    GG can we close this thread now?

    And if you want proof go scour for it, it's out there in some interview, I don't care about finding it, too lazy.

    My point was they say a lot of things they don't mean. Just because they say it'll be out in 2018 doesnt mean it'll be out in 2018, just like how them saying there will never be another super long content droughts ever again doesn't mean there won't be one

    Lets just all leave this thread to die, where it belongs, at the last page of BFA general discussion.

    everyone bookmark this person so when its announced its coming out in 2018 we can tell them they're wrong.
