Patch 9.1: Mount Showcase
Literally, half of the pictures of the patch.
How does one consider these filler aspects of a patch to be the main thing of it?
Especially with 9.0.5 not even out yet.
I thought about late April / May, but this seems like a very naive guess now. June seems way more reasonable which would be the longest we had to wait for a .1 patch. Granted, it has a lot of content and seems more like the usual .2 patch (maybe it is?), but it's still a long wait to go.
For me it seems like they swapped places of 9.1 and 9.2 - anybody else having this feeling? For a .1 patch Chains of Domination is just too content-rich.

MAGA - Make Alliance Great Again
We realy dont have enough new content... but honestly I already though that when we saw the feature trailer and it turned out to be just that.
Maybe you are realy slow, but most people.completed the main features already. Sure not everyone done mythic, but I wouldnt call that anything the majority of people care for. To just give you an example

What features have they completed? Most have completed building up their Sanctums? Most people?
Most?
Its interesting because some people are complaining about anima drought which stops them to do the content, while you and some others talk about content drought.
So which is it? It can't be both a content drought and not a content drought as people are literally thirsting for anima to do more content. This is not even on a subjective level, its objectively one or the other.
First off, we are 3 months in, not that even. People seem to expect a new raid within this time limit? People need to come back to reality. Second, just because people don't like the content does not mean there is not any content. I have not seen ONE single player so far that has done all the content from 9.0.
Have you? Impressive if so. Cause thats a lot to cover.
Really? Most?

Gaming and WoW stuff
Seems like May is a likely release date for 9.1. The newest interview confirms that the 9.1 PTR will begin shortly after the 9.0.5 PTR ends.
9.0.5 is also really just a glorified hotfix, so I feel like it is reasonable ot expect it to be significantly shorter than a normal PTR.
The world revamp dream will never die!
honestly i wouldnt count some of the sanctum stuff as content
you get a travel network....ok
anima conductor giving dailies and stuff for a currency you will use for the leggo book
adventure table
ember court for cosmetics
building abominations
growing wild seeds
doing a new kinda mage tower with unlockable stuff
arguably the unique stuff from the covenants is as close to content as possible
between now and launch im gonna take my alt through heroic nathria and aim for all +15s
- - - Updated - - -
im ok with that
it gives me more time to get anima from the weeklies
So, for 95% of the player base there's enough content now to last them months and months. And the patch will keep them playing fully engaged until the next patch.
For the .1% that post on the MMO champ forums, the game only serves as a waiting lobby for raids and m+. There will never be enough content in any game for those people. So they either need to accept that they should just watch youtube or twitch when they are not doing the one thing they want to do, or just try and play the game that's there for them.
Or, you know, stop whining about content droughts every 3 months like clockwork for the past 12 years and try another game and see if that will make you happy. Blizzard and WOW will not change, so the only thing that can give is the player.
This. Most people on this forum is 100% addicted to the game and are clearly in one of the 185 guilds that has cleared mythic CN. Assuming each guild has 30 active roster people for raids, that's 5500 ish players.
There's 8952 guilds that has done at least 1/10 mythic, that's 268560 players assuming they all have 30 people in their roster. That means roughly 2% of mythic raiders has actually cleared the raid.
It's pretty logical that this tier lasts for a few more months.
Hi
The abomination factory is great outdoor content and fun, and you can get the shared stuff (pets mounts) with the least hassle and most fun from necro. From your post I gather you have no idea about it. The party is a slog. The garden is unsatisfying. No idea about kyrian.
it was about what is ussual shown. About what i expected. now what i hoped but hey
A few posts referring to Covid. Yes, this will undoubtably have been an issue last year when working from home became a thing. But I doubt it's an issue that we would see impact dates now. The team will be fully adjusted to working from home and if anything production may have increased due to people not needing to commute into the office every day etc.
The time Blizzard gain not communiting is most definitely lost because of the highly impersonal design process. Sending someone an email or discussing over zoom isnt quite as expedient as simply walking over to a different cubicle and having a direct conversation.
The devs should have managed to somewhat adjust by now though.
The world revamp dream will never die!
As I said and I will say it again pandemic is not an excuse it is a fact. Many companies lost their business and others slowed down even riches of the riche people got affected by the pandemic. How hard is it to understand the patch being delayed or lackluster or not enough content or Blizzard is not doing their best in SL most probably because of the pandemic. I never said it is the only reason of course not but don't pretend that the pandemic didn't affect the company and the people overall.
My point is: you people need to lower you god damn expectations and standards. Don't expect this year Blizzcon will be as the one from 2019 or anything like that. you need to get used to it you need to live with the current situation and standards.
Again... why are you still suggesting I said the pandemic is not a fact? And when did I say it didn't affect the whole world and its habitants in every possible way? Did you quote me by mistake maybe? Because, honestly, I don't understand why you are telling me all of this story about the pandemic and -some of- its consequences. Which, btw, are so evident that it is pretty trivial to point them out.
For the record: I don't care about the Blizzcon show, I am just interested in the content that the game gets. And, as a fact, we all can agree that the 9.1 content is just the basic stuff every WoW player who has played the game for a while would expect for a big patch -which is what I've been saying since my first post in this threat, nothing less, nothing more-. Don't you agree on that? And I am not talking about how I feel about it or about how you feel about it. That's subjective.
Oh, and btw, something being a fact does not exclude the possibility of that fact being used as an excuse. Because there is a lot of people working a looooot more nowadays than what they used to do before the pandemic. And I am done with this subject; not answering you again if you are quoting me to keep derailing the main and only subject of this thread.
No it is not by mistake I am pretty sure it was you who said "It is so lame using the pandemic as an excuse for everything"
My answer? YES pandemic is one of the major factors why current Blizzcon is not up to the usual standards. It is a big factor like it or not that is a fact not an excuse. I never said it is the only factor but hell it is a big one really.
Yes there are people who work more than they used to because of the pandemic but usually most business companies even shops and many saloons, restaurants got bankrupted because of the pandemic. Go ahead and tell those people "hey that is just an excuse" they will punch you in the face man.
I have a manager friend who is responsible for three big saloons in my country and 2 of his big saloons got closed because the goverment decided to do a shutdown because of the PANDEMIC so when he closed down these two saloons. He was forced to fire those people who were working with him in these 2 saloons and they are screwed now and bankrupted and closed.
So yes pandemic is a major issue. Some countries take actions more than others and some areas demands more, so don't go around and say "but but it is not an excuse" if you don't know shit about business stuff. Blizzard in the end is a business company.
