Anyone miss BFA?

[NekoOwlAzure]

well, no, thats simply wrong
we get "goofy" mounts/mogs ON TOP of "serious" ones, not instead of

Yeah that does seem true.

[Syrah-the-Old-One]

They have bel'ameth but that doesn't change the fact that they should take it, and yeah Trolls and similar are vulgar cause of the way they talk. The "only the strong survive" philosophy is vulgar and has always been wrong.

Leet elitist chav slang (which is what I mean by vulgar/uninnocent) doesn't change what I read in the race descriptions when I first ever picked up this game.

You guys are fucking weird, bro.

The game is called "world" of warcraft. The inhabitants are supposed to actually exist. Some characters never see a raid boss, they fly around picking flowers and go home at night to their house where they put on their kobold onesie. Some characters, like yours I imagine, are super epic and brooding and cool and masculine all the time, so they wear their big spiky plate shoulders at all times and don't sleep or eat or anything, just do murdering and fighting and raaaargh I am so muscular.

P.s. the biggest, skull-iest shoulders in the entire game literally dropped in this expansion alongside dozens of wild armoured beasts that you can ride as mounts and a whole bunch of edgy spiky stony decor, particularly from Voidstorm, that you can use to make your ideal malelivingspace in your house. Obviously you're not interested in any of that though because they also added a couple of things for other people that aren't you.

Oh I’m being serious. The edge thing doesnt work anymore in WoW. I want ALL IN on the CozyCraft reskin.

I think only elves should be allowed, maybe Draenei, and housing should replace raiding.

That's just TESO, bro.

Yeah cause what do they even have to fight for anymore?

And as is said in the MoP trailer cinematic "What is worth fighting for?"

Leet elitist chav slang

So now common usage of the English letters is some kind of oppressing slang against you?
You seem to be able to coherently understand the language you type in-- unsure why something is considered "elitist" or even "slang" by using fucking periods.

For the same reason gearscore is slang, and addons, an dps meters, and "lel l2p noob" and just elitism in general.

Oh I’m being serious.

You aren't, though. You're concern trolling, which isn't funny or new it's just how 14 year olds argue with their parents.

Everyone who talks like this is exactly the same. Asmongold told you the game is for woke cucks now because there's a onesie transmog, and that's the end of your thought process. Someone can point out to you that the game has more 'edgy' content and 'dark' transmog items than it ever has and you just pivot to complaining about something else or acting like the objectively correct doesn't exist.

You want so desperately to be the victim of something that isn't even happening.

I do miss corruption a bit. Added some flavor to PvP, especially the stacking up of the corruption trinket on-use (can't remember the name of it) on people that showed up in the AWC.

[Eurhetemec]

People would melt down if even a fraction of BFA systems still existed in the game.

There was some fine content, but it was also the peak of awful design on so many levels.

Correct.

It is amazing to watch over the decades as WoW goes on and people get misty-eyed and nostalgic about every single terrible expansion.

I guarantee you, a few years from now, someone will be saying "Y'know, Shadowlands was actually one of the top three expansions, I think!" and getting a surprising amount of traction from people.

[Osmeric]

There was a fellow I played with who died of cancer shortly after BFA. I miss him.

[OwenBurton]

I actually liked BFA, but that might be because I played Alliance and Kul Tiras was awesome. I could see Zandalar becoming tiresome quite fast though. The only thing I didn't like was the dumb tree burning story, but the rest was good. I didn't even care about azerite armor or artifact power, it was an overreaction imo. Mechagon and Nazjatar were both really cool too!

Both Boralus and Dazar'alor were very beautifully and richly designed, they were really original but also refreshing and rooted in a way that felt both compelling and dynamic. I just wished the Heart of Azeroth/azerite game-changing the nature of warfare factor actually lasted beyond the expansion itself.

BFA represents end of an era.

If you compare the Triology today with BFA - it feels like two different games.

I think the faction war did drag on too long, but ironically it was Blizzard itself who chose to restart it after Legion, not the playerbase as a whole. I feel it is lazy writing to force that dynamic suddenly for one expansion, then all but completely shift from it to some distant afterlife in the next.

If anything, they might have broken apart BFA into two expansions. The faction war and warfronts into Part 1, and the Azshara/N'Zoth lore into Part 2. Or made the Old Gods the one who were manipulating Sylvanas into burning Teldrassil or starting the war, which would make the faction war much more plausible

Not the mention the Horde shouldn't have even been able to launch a big assault like that because the Alliance should've had bases set up watching Orgrimmar's every move, and not even lose morals for doing so. If Sylvanas decided to just attack then that's a different matter.

[melodramocracy]

BFA was the beginning of the end of my long term interest in this game, and was a significant letdown after Legion (which did, quite honestly, get silly with all the Argus stuff).

[Teriz]

No. The level cap made it very hard to level alts.

[AudibleEscalation]

BFA is probably the reason I'm still playing. I quit during Legion because of the insane grinds and took a 2y break until BFA S2. When I came back, I got together with some old guildies and started a M+ group to push keys. We've been playing together ever since. Every season we push keys casually until we feel like we're "done" (normally to the point when you need to start making strict group comps/play meta in order to progress). Small group content is the best (Blizz, how about that 10 man mythic?)

[Clone]

I definitely miss some parts of BfA.
