’m cancelling my subscription because of the issues with Season 2 of TWW and the lack of meaningful changes in the game. As someone who mainly plays M+, missing the first 24 hours of the season put me at a severe disadvantage. Players are already running 10-14s, with gear and set bonuses, while I’m stuck pushing +4s and dealing with gatekeeping from players who are afraid of delvers wrecking their keys.
It’s incredibly frustrating to see people who gear through Delves join +4-7 M+ dungeons, completely ignoring mechanics and ruining runs for others. This isn’t a problem in low-level dungeons, but it’s a huge issue in mid-tier content where it’s impossible to progress. It feels like there’s no incentive to keep pushing when this happens repeatedly.
Another major issue is the lack of support for non-meta classes, like Brewmaster Monk. This has been an ongoing problem since BFA, and despite feedback on class and dungeon changes, Blizzard continues to ignore what players are asking for. The fact that Blizzard has failed to listen in BFA, Shadowlands, Dragonflight, and TWW is tiring. I’ve been patient, but I’m done being ignored.
Blizzard’s approach to gearing has been frustrating too. S2 has better gearing than S1, but it still feels like casual players, particularly those who don’t raid, are deliberately kept out of Mythic+ gear progression. I don’t care about raids, but I expect to be able to progress in M+ without the need to spend hours in delves or rely on meta-class players who dominate keys.
The game feels increasingly catered to streamers and coordinated groups, and I’m tired of being excluded because I play solo or in PUGs. It’s impossible to get into groups without the right gear or class, and that’s not the kind of game I signed up for.
Blizzard needs to focus on producing more content that is accessible to a wider range of players, not just the top-tier or streamers. It’s clear that M+ is the real endgame for most PvE players, and it needs to be treated as such. The continued focus on raiders and streamers has led to a game that is less enjoyable for the majority of players who aren’t in premade groups.
Ultimately, I’ve been with Blizzard through thick and thin, but it’s become clear that they are more interested in catering to streamers and their own vision of the game than actually listening to and respecting the player base. Until Blizzard starts making real changes and listens to the feedback from the community, I’ll be unsubscribing and not returning.
