    I'm not sure it will be a failure, but i do believe that the most important features for BFA are a flop.

    Warfronts just seem like an absurd feature. 20 player PvE scenario with an npc army? Sort of like an enhanced Alterac Valley with just one half-sized faction, and npc troops\upgrades? Ugh. They could just feature a couple of raid encounters with said ideas to test it instead of publicizing it as a main feature, since it just seems so lackluster.

    Island Expeditions are just... weird. It's like MoP scenarios are back with several paths\variants. It just doesn't seem 'exciting' at all, but i believe they 'can' be fun.

    And that's that... the two top features just seem to be uninteresting from the get go.

    That being said, as long as end game content is fun with the new raids and dungeons it will be fine. I only hope they expand upon Mythic+ with more affixes, more dungeons (even scaling older expansion ones).

    Older expansions hit home runs with stuff like Transmogrify, Mythic+, new classes... in comparison, BFA new features are just average at best. But the 'base features' (new zones, new dungeons, new raids, etc) will be enough to make it fresh and purchase-worthy.

    "Hey guys, as we try and promote and get pre-sales for our upcoming expansion, I think it would be a great idea not to announce a new class that would let us sell more copies"

    Cata and WoD were bad for a lot more reasons than just no new class

    I'll never understand these stupid-ass 'if the game doesn't do the thing I think it should do it will be a failure' topics.

    Pretty much this.
    Appreciate your time with friends and family while they're here. Don't wait until they're gone to tell them what they mean to you.

    Inb4 tinfoil hat. It kinda makes sense. Cata and WoD did not introduce new class and were biggest failures

    WoW has been a failure since WoD was announced at Blizzcon many years ago.

    You do know what failure means, right?

    Just have the intellectual honesty to admit that YOU think BFA will be a failure because it lacks a new class, instead of trying to skirt around having to back up your claim by pretending that "interesting theories and opinions" (which are definitely not yours!) prompted you to make this thread.

    An expansion does not need a new class to be succesful.

    A new class didn’t save Legion.

    You asked a question and I gave you the answer. You might not agree with or fully understand the answer, but, it is correct because of reasons.”

    It's not the Internet actually saying this.

    It's Dankdruid attempting a troll thread. The same poster who makes a thread saying "The Real Reason WoW Will Fail" and the post just says "thoughts?"

    I dont want a new class. Ewww.

    I want more engaging pve and pvp. More spells, more difficulty. WOTLK style of spells.

    seeing how they opened preorders yesterday and the playerbase lost their fucking minds at not being able to give them money fast enough, i think BfA will do just fine.

    Warfronts and Islands are extremely ambitious features. If they work and are fun, they could be huge. Just because previous ambitious content like Ashran failed, that doesn't mean these will too. And even if it does, they should keep trying to innovate and not just poop out variations 5 dungeons/3 raids/5 zones every expansion.

    I think random nobodies on these forums in particular like to spout inane nonsense, that's what I think of the sentiment that an expansion can't be good without a new class.
