I can’t say that I hate it.
I was goin to tell you to stop switching char. Its a pity it was a troll. report it and carry on.
I do. And there will always be people who cry that they didn’t get what they want.
There were people like that before and after Legion as well.
But that’s a ‘people’ problem. I’ve said this for years. It’s the playerbase doing this to themselves. Not the game. Players need to change, imo.
Not sure that’s a correct assessment.
I think we should just agree to disagree. I’ve been having these kinds of discussions for years and they never lead anywhere. 
Yeah, it’s annoying.
There is allot I like about Dragonflight.
The quality of life updates. The edit mode and interface customization.
How you can gear up catch up alts faster than ever before.
The new profession system. At least crafted items matter again.
Follower dungeons.
Dragonflying! And the updated flying.
I also really liked the new zones… They are wast and big as hell. And there is allot to explore. And exploration feeling is something I longed missed in wow.
There are probably more, But that all that comes off the top of my mind.
Also the tier set transmogs… And transmogs in general this expansion where really cool
I agree.
But… There is not a lot I LOVE about Dragonflight.
If WoW was a meal, DF would be soup. It’s fine, it’s tastes nice, but it’s just soup.

There is allot of things i didn’t think was all that great either… But I’ve posted that pretty much everywhere else… Time for some positivity!
Okay, okay…
I dislike Dragonriding less than I did early on in the expansion.
How about that?

Its great we get to switch between Dragon riding and old flying. Especially when collecting treasures in the Emerald dream.
Following that ‘‘Triflesnatch’’ Whatever on a dragon riding mount was awful.

I have no complaints about this DF. I have been playing a l lot yes. It is flipping amazing that they put dragon flying in actual Azeroth itself. There is even Hordes in the guild I am in! I love all the small things to do For some odd reason I am attracted to piles of dirt and rock climbing quests. This expansion brought in a better tech tree/talent tree. I just love messing about in there because I don’t do any serious content so can spec any old ability I like and run with it and enjoy it.
They cannot really be faulted by myself. Apart from that kerfuffle we have been having with battle.net but thats off topic.
Pretty much this.
In the post MOP era of WoW I think DF ranks behind Legion but ahead of Shadowlands. It’s in the middle with WoD and BFA.
Its story-telling is a mess.
Leveling alts is just repeating the same content over again.
There are a lot of Renowns and they took a while to raise.
Open world content hasn’t been done well, at least there was some which likely puts it ahead of WoD (although WoD had better story telling and fast alt leveling with xp potions and Bonus Objectives).
I don’t feel qualified to talk about professions as I’ve done so little on them but this is down to how convoluted they seem to be.
But DF did resolve some of the issues of the post MOP era, the systems, chores, the maze-like terrain et al.
Nobody cried in MOP or BFA about the leggos.
You have been delusional for years if you thing “people” have the ability to change. That is a uphill battle you cant win.
My proof: Politicians exist since BC era. And for the past 10000 years of recorded history, we as a society have been dealing with the same “people” problem. You think you have a chance in a game? 
Therefore: Dont change the people to the system. Change the system to the people. SIMPLE. And that is why, even if you think system is morally better, in reality when implemented it is not.
Kinda like: Why communism on paper sounds super nice. But in the end, what gave us more prosperity as a whole is accepting people are selfish and care only about their own interests. You can get more into details of course… but that’s the basic idea. Accepting people as who they are.
You heard of gausians right? That is what I was refering to. So yes… the ULTRA casual are rare. The “normal” casual are not.
Thing is: Those “normal” casuals, when they play the game and interact with other players they stumble upon the “people problem” you mentioned above and it has an impact on their gameplay.
Only the extreme spectrum dont care, or care too much about RNG in an item that provides 20% of your damage.
It has a lot of good aspects.
I enjoyed doing all the renowned reps, and I really liked some of the tier sets. Especially Priest and Shaman.
Nothing has given me the fun I had in Wotlk and MoP though.
The more you tell him not to do it, the longer he will do it. Best if just everyone ignores them completely.
Really? When I mount up on an old mount and fly at that speed I feel like I’m a slug.
Legion still strongest expansion else Dragonflight is quite good so it is best 2nd expansion so far. I cant wait for The War Within! 
Ay,i still think WoD was the last time i enjoyed,anything above it vent downhill (class design&story) legion was mediocre only because of class hall.
Not true.
BfA had a legendary with the horrific visions system. There was DEFINITELY complaints about it. For sure. I was one of those people, in fact.
There were also definitely people who complained about the legendary cloak in MoP.
What are you talking about? Of course people have the ability to change.
The same people problem? Care to elaborate what you mean exactly?
I don’t care about if it’s morally better. I care about whether it’s more fun to play the game or not. And for me it was.
Well, I will not accept that if it’s detrimental to my own gaming experience. I will keep fighting for what I believe to be the fun option.
I would count myself among those ‘normal casuals’, I suppose. And I don’t feel impacted; at least not in a way that made me angry or sad or whatever. I didn’t get a very good legendary item as my first item and that was fine. I equipped it and just played the game until I got something better. I believe my third or fourth was actually the legendary I wanted most. Was I extra happy when I got that one? Sure. But it didn’t make me want to start complaining on the forums that my first couple of legendaries were ‘meh’. It SURE as hell didn’t make me want to delete my character.
To me that’s a completely insane notion.
DF has some real positives, in particular the removal of AP, 3 good raids, and the questing was fun the first time I did it.
It falls down with some of the balancing decisions, the introduction of Aug Evoker totally messing up S2 of M+, and some of the story was a bit lame.
8/10 for me. Good where it counts in that I’ve enjoyed the content I do most.
People dont change.
So il stop it right here.
I really dislike doing gathering with dragonriding. I overshoot, can’t quite reach, can’t manage to land on a tiny little ledge, run out of vigor, etc etc. It’s just frustrating.
Similarly just questing I’m often better off using regular flying for little hops between areas and such. For long flights, I’ll use dragonriding, sure.
Dragonriding sometimes just feels too much like work. I know that for many that is exactly why they like it; but… I like to relax. When I game I don’t need/want a constant ‘play, action, go go, play’ experience.
