Has anyone kept up with World of Warcraft recently? What are your opinions on the state of the game?
I actually enjoyed Shadowlands quite a bit overall, even though most the criticisms it received were absolutely valid. I felt that it had a good amount of content, progression made sense, there was a good level of challenge, Nathria was a great raid, and many of the zones had interesting environments and NPCs, even though the story was shit and nothing really fit the typical WoW aesthetic.
Despite Dragonflight being a return to the usual on paper, something about it felt sort of… wrong to me, but it's hard for me to put my finger on. It feels a little too manufactured, a little too much like fanfiction, and a little too clunky.
I've been trying to play again during the pre-patch, but that same feeling of wrongness remains and is even stronger, honestly, and I think I have to chalk it up to many little things. UI changes that feel very mobile game-y, abysmal lore and storytelling, very generic zones in a game that typically has wonderful environments, bizarre artistic choices, trivial but time-consuming world content, adding and removing complexity from systems seemingly at random, lack of immersion… I could go on.
I can't believe the amount of praise Dragonflight has gotten, as I don't typically have controversial opinions on games, and I'm struggling to enjoy it like I enjoyed other recent and supposedly shitty expansions.
It doesn't seem like there's anywhere worth posting about WoW anymore though; Reddit and the official forums are slightly different echochambers, and /wowg/ has been unusably filled with avatartrannies for many years now. I'm curious if any nonas here have any more nuanced thoughts on the game that aren't just
>wow is now a terrible game by troons and for troons, and you're a mazed retard if you even consider playing it
>the game is the best it has been since legion/pandaria/(insert expansion), and any and all complaints you have are illegitimate
>the story in Dragonflight is so comfy and cozy and I love the wholesome cultural exploration and fun dragon flying and lgbt rep!

I hope there aren't any more sudoku in this game. My eyes hurt from staring at these numbers.

OK now I'm actually excited for 1999.
Though I get why Arthur is British now, but he didn't sound like it at all in Whispers.
