What did you hope for in Warlords of Draenor? And if Blizzard did not live up to your expectations in WoD but they have redeemed themselves in Legion, would you consider playing it again?
What did I hope for?
Oh god, where to begin...
I really wanted them to address healing. It's been off the rails for two expansions now, and they keep trying to "fix" it mid-expansion (or just stick their heads in the sand and try to pretend that every raid isn't saving 2 of 3 spots for a Disc Priest and a Paladin, and letting the other four specs fight it out for the third raid spot). If they don't get a handle on Disc, that will be it for me. I'm tired of being forced to play the most boring fucking spec in the game (seriously, there is absolutely no "skill" involved in blanketing the raid in Power Word: Shield and Clarity of Will...I mean, unless you call "setting my raid frames up to track Weakened Soul and Clarity of Will duration" skill).
I'm tired of mana not being something I care about. I want to be juggling mana the way I was back in Cata - not in 5 mans, necessarily, but we need this in raids where the mana restrictions have been increasingly looser with each expansion. Supposedly they were gonna address that, but lol, nope!
I'm sick of Legendaries that completely change the way the game is played. I should not have to worry that if I take a month or two month break, I won't be able to effectively join a guild for the rest of the expansion because I'm just too far behind. I was hoping that after they saw the bullshit that the cloak put guilds through, they would stop that, but nope!
I don't want to have to do LFR anymore. In fact, if LFR disappeared, I would be thrilled.
I was hoping they would address the completely obscene gear inflation we got in MoP, and at first I thought they were going to do that with the item squish. But...
LOL
No. They actually doubled down and made the gear inflation worse this time around. Which has directly contributed to healer mana and healing getting out of control.
I also was hoping for more to do than there turned out to be to do. Without flying, a lot of otherwise fun things became...just a study in frustration. I got sick of it.
