Other than the story, it was pretty good up until this week's patch took a big shit on the game. Between the bugs and severe nerf to the Prey system I haven't been able to motivate myself to play.

They nuked the trap spawns because they want you to do WQ's to get the prey to reveal themselves rather than doing the traps. Wouldn't be so bad if they significantly buffed the WQ that spawns when you accept the target.

What does "raid" even mean to the modern wow player? Is it just Mario party with 20 people?

The raids blow dick and the great addon purge and pruning made half the specs un-fucking-playable.

its the video game equivalent of marvel movies, game of thrones, harry potter, going to the bar, going to the club, and there's probably also some food/dining equivalent I can't think of.

its not good, and its not really even popular any more either. everyone there regularly is only there for the social aspect, even if they don't understand that themselves yet. something to do with a friend, somewhere to meet other people who do the same thing. doesn't stand on its own in any way, its a vehicle for other motives. its the gaming equivalent of a hotdog bun.

I sometimes think about coming back but shit just fucking sucks now, TWW was the most fun recent one but the gameplay is so boring and samey and It's not because I regulate myself to one class I play prot warrior, ele sham and brew monk and even when I branched out to try other classes and specs it just all felt the same

Sex is an activity, not an identity, I do not give a shit and would actively support gay rights if I really needed to. But slapping modern politics in a video game is cringe and moronic. At absolute fucking best, it does nothing. And at worse it damages the setting and does the opposite effect of alienating people because when you fuck up a loved setting you then associate it with the REASON you fucked up that setting, in this case gay politics.

MoP was okay expansion but ruined PvP because everyone was able to do quite everything.

Raids and Dungeons weren't bad but they forced players to wait for the end of their scripts to finally progress which was a terrible idea.

A lot of players also disliked Cata but in my eyes it was wotlk continuity, at least in term of gameplay is was pretty similar and i consider wotlk-cata as the 2 best expansions concerning classes gameplay.

surely is not entirely because of troons, I played turtle for 3 months before it closed and I really liked the content there and as far as i'm aware most of it was made by troons

Shadowlands style fucked, but the lore and worldbuilding were fucking God Awful. It vaguely wants to handshake all the different styles of Afterlife that exist to simplify but the simplification feels like shit in how they order things.

Like, you push a trans character who does nothing but fuckup, whine and complain and be part of the worst designed faction; and then when I dropped the game for the first time (Warlords to BFA baby here), they give them the power of a god for a reason that I've yet to have explained satisfactily. Oh, after doing some stupid ass shit of 'Lich King the Anduin, oooooooh' for a gay ass plotline and one of the worst cinematics in terms of introducing an expansion and killing Arthas outright. OH, And make kinda interesting ideas of 'All the people in lore are down here and dead'... barely used. Oh, you got the notable ones and then the fuckers who are dead characters completely remade into ugly monsters (Poor Amber) or generic blue humans with anger wings... But you made Jaina's dad a fucking facebook mission.

Travel to the doors of Blizzard and nail a scroll of their retardation on a 30 foot scroll of complaints for Steve reheated leftovers with tranny sauce of writing.

Does anyone care about cosmic threats anymore? We just stopped Ultra-Satan from unmaking reality at the nexus of the universe in Shadowlands. Literally everything is trivial after that.

They should lean into content like Undermine that sticks to a theme and a simple story around grounded characters. WoW lore is a dry well. They already resurrected Ragnaros 15 years ago, and that was seen as desperate. We're comically beyond that now and they want us all to pretend a magic foot-fetish meme woman is the greatest threat to the world. If they weren't playing it straight I'd assume it was a tongue-in-cheek joke about their how fucked Warcraft lore is.
