>dark aesthetic is back, no more gay dragons or minorities
>if you are not in the mood for group content there's more solo content than ever to progress your gear like delves, nightfall, world memories and visions
>super cool and creative themes like The Undermine
Seriously it's better than ever. I have tried to get into WoW every year for the past 10 years and Blizzard finally got me.

I hate the subscription not because I can't afford it, but because when I pay for it I feel like I must play all the time to get the most out of it or money is left on the table. I switched over to a new pay once MMO and it's nice to play an MMO that doesn't require a sub.

What fucks me from playing this game is the fact character and class progression is beyond mediocre. I can't imagine putting in 100 hours into a character and it plays identical to when I started end-game with the only difference being I deal more damage and press an extra button or two every 2 minutes.

WoW is about personal progress. The way you play a character at hour 1 will be vastly different from how you play them after hour 100; and 200; 500; and so on.

You need to spend thousands of hours at a class/spec to start parsing at 99% accuracy (the chess equivalent of making the correct move at the correct time 99% of the time)

And if you want variety every patch will mix things up, so even if you mastered a class there's always a lot to learn again.

So while there is a lot of criticism for WoW I think you chose something that is actually WoW's strength. It gives me the feel of progression more than any other RPG that allows me to change my character's abilities well into the endgame.

That's really strange because my class didn't change its rotation or cooldown management pretty much ever except for some defensives.

>>712834528
>And if you want variety every patch will mix things up
That's just not true. It is precisely because I've been playing every patch that I feel the game is trash. Now if you want this feeling you can look at Destiny 2 where every season can be really different. But that is also a game where you can fully truly customize your character to whatever you want in a few clicks.
Again. If I just want to play Arms warrior for 200 hours that gameplay doesn't change.

You're already 99% parsing? Time to move on to one of the 37 other specs then.

If you are not 99% parsing, you can still optimize your rotation.

I can parse 99% on other games that don't require a subscription plus expansion purchases. I already am a world-class player in something else.

I want to be able to grind cool shit that changes how my class plays and makes it different. How is this game different from a MOBA at that point when there is ZERO class growth functionally?
At that point is arms warrior not going to choose mortal strike on lower than 3 and cleave over 3 targets?

Anon you can unlock shit for your character forever. There are so many rewards, achievements and reputation unlocks.

You are correct that there is a hard limit to how much you can evolve on your character's skillset. To compensate this there are 37 other specs to explore, and even if you are only playing arm warrior you can always spec them in at least 4 different meta builds and many others that are not meta.

This is genuinely a dumb complaint.

Tell me one that I can use in the end-game right now. Tell me about a sword that makes my mortal strike hit twice. Or a chest piece that removes the range requirement on charge. I don't know. SOMETHING.

Reminder that the people who worked on Wildstar have been working on World of Warcraft since Dragon Flight. Did YOU spot the recycled Wildstar stuff?

Here's a few to get your started.
Spellslinger was a class in Wild Star. It's a Mage Gunslinger who wields magic pistols to shoot spells and magic bullets
The Black Blood corruption is The Strain. Same color palette and everything
The Djaradin from the Dragon Isles are just The Osun from Wildstar

I don't understand this feeling. It is already by far the game I play the most every week.

And there is a huge difference in how the game treats you as a customer. GW2 has no subscription, but there is content and raids locked behind microtransactions (even if you buy all the expansions). Also tons of mounts. And I don't say mounts in the WoW sense of skin, but rather mount "classes" with specific types of movement that change the way you access content.

WoW never even asks me to check their cash shop. And said shop is 100% cosmetics. The closes p2w it has is a mount that brings the auction house along with you. And that's the absolute peak of blizzard faggotry.

Yup. Thing is, men exist in that fantasy world.
They also have access to magic, different dimensions, different races, people strong enough to destroy entire cities
So, just like in real life, it's unrealistic for women to be soldiers. And even more unrealistic for them to keep being soldiers after losing an eye and an arm. Even more so for people to follow her.
