It's Shit
It's lit
You are welcome, Metzen. I hope you won't fuck up my underground expansion idea.
Well, i don't think it's lit, but it's not shit either. But i'll say it's too soon, let's see how it holds up when all content is available and most people have seen everything it has to offer, so far we basically have leveling and some max level world content, not enough to make a good judgement.
If we talk about leveling... i think that the 100% linear leveling that you must complete from start to finish is a mistake. Is not that i don't like the story (is a bit slow sometimes), but the fact that i believe that the way they did it leaves little room for the player to enjoy the zones however they want and even kills replayability.
You might say that it's fine because it'a a one time thing since your following characters will have the threads of fate alternative, but that's precisely one of the problems i have with it: i don't want to experience the story just once, i love to revisit zones and there are some bits of lore and quests i totally enjoy doing multiple times. It's just that for a second, third of whatever run... maybe i don't need the whole linear thing, maybe i just want to replay the ardenweald quests and when i'm done i might feel like replaying bastion, maybe as soon as i hit level 60 i want to move on and do my max level stuff instead of quests.
I don't know, it just seems like another overcomplicated mess that no one asked for.
"Mastery Haste will fix it."
if u want accurate answer, u are way too early to ask?
if u asking 1st impression it is amazing, but remember WoD first impression was over 10 million sub, then ended with lower than classic
(no i don't think SL is bad, but honestly no one can really say is it good or bad in 1 day, i'd say give it a week minimum and better 2 weeks)
The beginning of wisdom is the statement 'I do not know.' The person who cannot make that statement is one who will never learn anything. And I have prided myself on my ability to learn

Because I'm always making threads about how WoW is bad? Idk dude, I barely post. Usually when I do it's in response to somebody complaining about a complete non-issue and blowing it out of proportion.
But yeah sure, I guess it's actually me creating threads to complain about bullshit. TIL.
OT: Shadowlands is fantastic right now. Art direction is absolutely stunning, and even though the plot for Castle Nathria isn't groundbreaking or anything, we have a primary antagonist with a personality and clearly defined motivations in Denathrius. Honestly at the moment I'm into it. By this point in BfA I absolutely had reservations, and that's not the case in Shadowlands. More than happy to be spending time here for the next couple years.

Asking the wow community if anything about the game is good is not a wise thing to do actually. If there is the smallest inconvenience, the GAME IS UTTER TRASH!

The leveling is, going to be easy to level alts. Other than that can't say, it just dropped so honestly not enough time to really judge it since so much of that relies on end game.
Looks fine so far.
Questing is what it always is (which was fine 10 years ago, but at this point is just boring and outdatef) but endgame seems to be much improved.
So in a binary world I would go lit.
"And all those exclamation marks, you notice? Five?
A sure sign of someone who wears his underpants on his head."
Which would be a good point if the question asked had been 'Was shadowlands any good?'. Luckily, the question contains the word 'is' which refers to the present. The English language contains tenses specifically to avoid this confusion.
It's the same reason why when somebody asks me how I'm doing, I assume they're asking me how I'm doing right now. Otherwise, I'd have to say that it's too early to tell because nobody knows what the future holds, and while I may feel great now it could all change down the line.
Wouldn't know, 2 days later the server is still offline.
So far Ardenweald seems to be my fav. zone. Loved the story, looks, music... One of the best leveling zones, likely better than Azsuna.
From some comments here I can only assume those folks over here never liked wow leveling/questing because what we have now is as WoW as it gets, Level dependant zones, with some collecting, killing and using items quests with few cinematics. Only negative so far is dungeons being locked.
Edit: Most are voting positively so it seems that negative comments are just an overrepresentation
