I expect that you are correct there. I was really interested in them because their forms are disgustingly cool.Essa wrote:Seriously though, I predict that they'll tie it to another new rep grind instead of an existing one. That'll really be a low blow.
Generally I've found questing really good, however I can see Stormsong being meh now that I've finished the main questline, and having to go find and help random farmers etc. The other 2 zones the majority of the chain either coincided with the side quests you needed to finish the zone or were pretty close. Also I would generally only get the final dungeon quest near the very end of zone completion. I've only done half of Stormsong and I already have the dungeon quest...
Profs and rep are a pretty shit to me, better than the long quest chains we had in Legion and the non epic gear does come in handy, especially on alts. The mats for epic gear are ridiculous for the ilvl, rep rewards too. I feel like its the Legion class hall set which was suggested for raid/my start gear, but you could get better in a shorter time from other activities. Basically, not worth the time. There are some who will say its all fine, but many of us don't have the time/motivation to dedicate to it.
I've largely ignored islands and war campaign except where there is gear as I have no interest in grinding rep to access new content, that by large people seem disappointed by, so blizzard can go fly. Also largely ignored WQs except where there is gear, due to gearing for raids. I have found the dungeons I've been in fairly cool and interesting, the actual ambience and backdrops have been really cool in many places. Can't attest to the new raid as I haven't been yet, I hope to poke my head in tonight.
I've enabled warmode and been doing a fair bit of pvp when I'm on the last couple weeks, and on an entirely new main, I think were it not for these and wanting to see what the fuck Sylvanas' deal is, I would probably not have bothered continuing. The lead up to the expac seemed very horde/alliance focused but outside of warmode, the odd quests and warfronts I'm seeing very little of that which is a little disappointing.
Overall, I'm pretty disappointed thus far.
