ITS WORTH IT!
Just because: NO MORE CORRUPTION SLOW
to sum up my prepatch experience so far:
"where does the event quest start?"
again and again and again...
Wait for release. Pre-patch is still bfa, but with the level squish, and an awful new starting zone for new characters.

Everything is overturned, even alts who never had corrupted gear are struggling against some elite mobs that used to be pushovers before.
I doubt they will fix anything that is related to the quality of the pre-patch experience. The bug-catching brigade is only in the Exploit and Fun-detected setting right now.
I am abusing the barbers right now.
Did the new starting location too. which I did do in the beta, was pretty decent. Very kids Saturday morning storyline I was expecting one of those old kids PSA's to pop up at the end and tell us not to play inside washing machines, but I think it was nice :P
Jesus is this thread absolutely full to the brim with crybabies crying about anything and everything. Do you people realize the changes that were coming with pre-patch were very well documented and known for a long time, and many people had already experienced them on the PTR/beta? So I dont get this whining and crying as if youve been slighted by Blizzard, as if they promised something more and have failed to make good on that promise. Many peoples classes/specs received their pre patch changes and many of them were good, or at least interesting changes...whats there to cry about with those changes again? Pre patch almost always has issues the day of, its nothing new and should be expected with how much change is going on at once and how stressed servers get. If you just like to cry for the sake of crying why post, or better yet why are you even still playing the game if youre clearly miserable playing it?
They removed a lot more from mages than they added. Noto to mention the changes to fire and arcane mages.. Goodbye displacement, too long a cd on greater pyroblast.. I haven't tried frost yet but i'm sure it's in the same bad shape. Oh and no i don't want an overhaul, i just want them to stop removing shit.

Displacement, Charged up, Mana Shield, Rewind Time all of those removed plus all the documented changes listed here:

I would say indifferent.
Customizations were extremely lacking. I was under the impression we were only getting little teasers on wowhead. No way did I think only two or three new hairstyles per race is what they were giving us. Which that is exactly what they gave us.
I didn't make any modifications to my characters because there is nothing worth changing. Maybe one or two races I have I might change a couple of small things, but I have not done it yet. Lack of enthusiasm.
The invasion is not actually active yet from what I read. So I don't really have content to participate in.
They released the new experience for level squish and leveling but not really in the mood to make an alt. I know I can't be the only one that feels this way as the game is almost 16 years old. Some people might be enjoying it tho. I would imagine it would probably be the people who never actually bothered to grind out reputation to unlock Allied races.
I don't ever remember them timegating pre-patch content before tbh.. so I'm not entirely sure why this time around they decided to withhold content. Usually if pre-patch was here it meant it was actually being released in it's entirety.
