Shadowlands isn't motivating. And 9.1 being months away doesn't help either. I loved the first 4 weeks of Shadowlands, it was really great. But my fun decreased rapidly after that due to all the time gating and the lack of content. It feels like the excitement for the expansion dropped very fast and people just moved on already.
MAGA - Make Alliance Great Again
I only do m+. Adding more would be cool woth me. I disagree abt the timer. I dont raid because I can't commit to a raid schedule or longer play sessions. I think there are a lot of players like me. So m+ is our main content. The timer helps ensure it moves fast and doesn't have to be balanced around waiting for our cds before each hard pull. Also fun pre-planning the route and thinking about when to use cds balancing the time saved vs strength of the pack we are defeating. I get why some players dont like it but I think it serves a good purpose
You could play old WoW nonstop because there were far more timesinks in it and people were just far less knowledgeable about the game, compared to nowadays where every bit of info is a wowhead search away and you can speed through all the content in a fraction of the time.
A lot of the Covenant content is exclusive. Though yhey can swap, people are encouraged to stay loyal (meta) rather than swap (content).
Casuals either can't get in or gear up to a satisfactory rate in M+ with less gear drops. (Hard wall on progression felt, even if not true.)
There was no new class or races to play as this expac. Significant lack of something new to play with.
There were no significant new-style class revamps this expac (those that got ones were regressions, not innovations).
WoD = RAID OR DIE
Did you even play the expansion in the last half of it? The servers were empty, every guild struggled to maintain active raiding and everything lead to LEGIONs TF/M+/loot-lottery that was targeted for casuals having no longer a hard und cruel gearprogression wall.
I liked WoD just as much as I liked other expansions, but the game was dead, everything was tailored for raiders and nothing else.
I really doubt you played WoD or just participated as a content tourist for a few weeks. It was the worst iteration of WoW for the casual playerbase.

Why can't you just accept that some content in the game just isn't for you?
A lot of players find M+ fun and engaging.
I find rated PvP stupid and therefore I don't do it and I don't demand it removed.
I find transmog suitable for 8 year old girls and I don't do it, but I don't demand it removed.
It is a very toxic way of treating your fellow gamers to demand to get something removed from the game that they enjoy, but that you are unable/unwilling to do.
I'm not sure where I claimed otherwise? I specifically said that the only content Blizzard delivered during WoD was for raiding (and some last ditch effort with Tanan tbh), though even there they only they had 3 raids, 2 of which were launch content. The rest was just the same boring apxis crystal daily shit and after being heavily criticized for only having garrison and mission table stuff they doubled down towards the end with the ludicrous ship yard. Yes it was raid or die but it was obvious that all the development resources went to Legion, because it certainly wans't a couple more raids for WoD either.
You are welcome, Metzen. I hope you won't fuck up my underground expansion idea.
I read a post in here like 6 pages back and someone was calling the player base "apes" because they aren't addicted to a mediocre, phoned in mobile game and "quit 3 weeks in". Um, how long do you need to play a game before you decide it's not for you? The 3 weeks thing is pure addict rhetoric. People refund games in 2 hours, let alone weeks lmao, good one.
Ah it's still following me around. Adorable.
I think i've made it pretty clear m+ in it's current state is not for me. The problem is it's an unignorable part of the PvE structure of the game, especially for alts.
I don't recall calling for it to be removed. Have a quote?
I should just put you on ignore, but your pathetic attempts to paint me as toxic because you didn't like me pointing out the reality of toxic m+ pugging, are entertaining.
Actually nm, i'm pretty bored of your braindead takes. Goodbye idiot.
