Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Makabreska]

I agree that barely anyone saw Naxxramas, and I can accept that this makes it a waste of resources. I does not however really justify shamelessly reusing it. Reusing the concept or the location for sure, but the entire thing? Down to exact copies of all the bosses?

Really, calm down with this 14y too late resentment. What are we even talking about now, are they reusing something 1:1 in DF?

I think we are just talking? It is allowed in this thread usually. Do you have something DF related you want to discuss?

Don't play dumb. The guy has been super cynical for the last several months and even now is as if Blizzard never does anything right. And I'm sure as I say this someone will accuse me of thinking Blizz is never wrong which is not true and a strawman. Also as Dracculus said those expansions weren't just sailing through with no turbulence.


Wrath did reuse Naxxramas for Nostalgia(I'm not against it but reusing an old raid can be a bad habit) and well the playerbase would scold(Or rather the loud ungrateful part of the playerbase) Blizz for reusing stuff, they already get flack for reusing assets. Oh and the "There must always be a Lich King" I remember people moaning about that plot line and well people "thinking" Arthas was a "Saturday morning cartoon." I don't agree with that notion but it was something that was there.

Edit: Also I forgot about Trial of Crusader in Wrath with no trash. That was....apparently bothering some people.


Legion: Yeah the story end was big but all throughout there was the AP grind whining and the lack of content despite world quests first being introduced. The Tomb of Sargeras Patch was also outside of the raid kinda eh. It had the mage tower challenges but the storyline campaign for ToS was kinda meh(I felt differently at the time but whatevs). I also remember people upset about Night Hold released too early or something. The constant whining about the AP grind was felt throughout the expansion. I didn't like it so much at the end but it was certainly a big factor for Legion.


TLDR: The past for some grumpy WoW players and there are a lot of them, seems far too rosy then what it actually was. Not "completely" bad but not smooth sailing all the way.

The only thing I'm ever cynical about is people on this forum, tyvm

Oh, if y'all wanna get mad about 14y old one time raid rehash 3h before new expac release, then sure. This thread saw so much worse.

Btw has Rheastrasza's last whelp been found anywhere in Dragon Isles? Red flight needs more named dragons and that's a drake who deserves some story. Imagine if they met Wrathion . . .

Oh I have them in void storage. But still, hoping they include them.

Happy expac everyone. Remember, when in two months "trusted" people will call it shit and you will still have fun, nothing wrong with you.

[Foreign Exchange Ztudent]

I am just ready for the next expansion wait to begin.

Woooohooooo hypeeeee it's almost time!

[Marlamin]

This was an interesting edition of the hype thread. Enjoy the Dragon Isles, everyone!

It was weird, we usually get so many crazy datamining moments but I think the only big reveal was the Malf/Ysera thing?

It is a grounded expansion after all.
