I just raised my a$$ up to farm experiment and blazing drake.
Why is there after years no skip to all the roleplay and a few other things like pre Ultraxion event and maybe spine in legacy mode needs only 1 plate to end encounter. How old is this content ? 8 years ?

Look I like getting mounts just as anyone else but just because the content is old doesn’t mean Blizzard is obliged to change it for your convenience.

Hellfire Assault in HFC was changed in legacy mode in favor to mount and skin farmers (like me) . Why not DS which is 2 expansions older

HFC first boss was hardly doable because of the encounter mechanics regardless of your level / damage output.
DS however is 100% easily doable, just takes time.
The dialogue is pretty important so I understand them not wanting to skip it.
HFC was nerfed mechanically. That’s a completely different circumstance. PS thanks for reminding me I completely forgot they did that.
At the same time the reason why I don’t do DS anymore is because of how long the dialogue takes.
So I’d like it to be removed, but I don’t think it’ll happen and I think that’s fine.
Just an option at a npc to turn rp stuff off would be fine
important for the first time, not 100th time tho 
there is a reason that any raid starting from BRF has a skip available. Blizzard does anticipate this content eventually being trivial to solo-farm for transmog and cosmetics.
Adding skip quests to prior raids would be a nice convenience but i understand this isn’t high on their priority list. List of raids that could really use a skip quest:
-Siege of Orgrimmar
-Dragon Soul
-Icecrown Citadel
-Ulduar
-Black Temple
SoO is by far the worst offender, as this raid is just incredibly huge. And contains 3 really annoying bosses (Immerseus, Galakras, Spoils of Pandaria). And on top of this - long RP on Garrosh. Dragon Soul is close second worst, but this one drops 3 mounts in total, it gets a pass for this. ICC and Ulduar are annoying but nowhere near SOO level, BT is a minor inconvenience as warglavies have drop rate that is much higher than typical mount.
Other raids are fine as they’re either short (Firelands, TK), or you only have to clear a half of it (Throne of Thunder, no need to clear past Ji’Kun)

No need to make spine one plate only.
And the RP is there to serve a purpose of telling a story.
The twilight drake event prior to Ultraxion was an important piece of the raid. Still is.
WoD Hellfire first encounter was nerfed because the guards were too strong in destroying the cannons and very few classes had the ability to move to a cannon then the next cannon to kill packs of guards before they trashed it while also attempting to collect ammo crates to be thrown into the cannons.
And why on earth would you want to skip boss encounters in a raid simply because it’s “inconvenient”…
5 minutes…
SoO portal when?
yeh why on earth would you want to do anything about inconveniences, that’s just madness xD
no wonder you like pouring salt on snails and watch them suffer, you’re as bright as a match

At least you can share lockout with your other characters in these 3(actually not sure about Ulduar anymore). Wish we could do that with SoO and Dragon Soul as well.
I’d take out ICC, never found it that annoying (once the healing dragon one was taken out). I’d add Battle for Hyjal though, the one where you have to protect Thrall just goes on and on and on…
Nice story to hear the 227364646859th time and sit and wait

Agreed. DS, Siege of Orgrimmar and ICC need unlockable skips among a few others.
The NPCs talk too much and spine bit is annoying. If you don’t get the mob charged up in time and explode it on the plate, it gets blown off. Highly annoying. I literally don’t do dragonsoul because you can’t manually target and blow the plates off yourself in legacy mode.
