And I totally feel you on the bottlenecking. Even gearing up my main was a pretty difficult task, and I had to pour a little more time into it then I had hoped for. But now, were halfway through the expansion, 5.3 is approaching fast, and I have a ton of alts who I can't get 463's to drop for for the life of me, and a shitload of other alts that I haven't even leveled to 90 yet (although with the XP nerf incoming, I might just suck it up and do it now).
So for all of this bitching and moaning about how shitty WoW is and we should just change everything back to TBC, this expansion has catered much more towards the hardcore (or at least those with a little more time on their hands) than casuals, moreso than cata or even WoTLK. It might not be in the traditional top tier raiding sense, but the fact is you still need more than just an hour or two a day to really get anything done. Especially LFR, seeing as how it usually takes at least 20 minutes for a dps just to get in, as opposed to the 10-15 minutes from DS. But the point is, to everyone bitching about how TBC is the best there ever was, you got what you wanted. Maybe not how you guys envisioned it in your all powerful, oh so superior minds. But the return to a more difficult play style is EXACTLY why Blizz is losing subs. So stop with your delusional fantasies about how WoW needs to be MOAR HARD, because obviously this path isn't doing them any good. Nostalgia is great for remembering good experiences, but being blinded by it to determine what's best for the player base and the company while rejecting or forgetting all of the bad stuff?
