Came back after 11 months, to find the game is more repetitive, dumbed down and just more boring than ever. Think I got to 112 when the novelty of a 'New' expansion wore off.
The Warmode talents are just talents we already had but were classed as legion traits or have been brought back into the game from an earlier state. Nothing again is new. The warmode talents wont work in instance pve + removal of artifact = 1 less ability. Aka another prune.
Artifact talents and abilities have been replaced with weapon passives that you dont do anything aka another form of prune.
There will be no more set bonuses either so it's just uninspiring, bland, boring.
Its 4-5 button rotation and on my rogue I can kill trash with garrote, toxic blade, evenom..... so dull, so boring......so uninstalled.
There is no threat, there's no Arthas, Illidan, Deathwing. It's just the opposite faction who I dont want to be fighting with after we just banded together to defeat the Legion............OH and some blood trolls, who before now were never mentioned in game.... It's pathetic.
Dont get me wrong, the first 30-40 mins were fun, breaking out of stormwind etc Then after that its; collect 15 xx, kill 10 xx, loot xx skulls. Like it always is and this time it got mind numbingly boring REALLY, REALLY QUICKLY.
BFA has been out for 1 day and imo its the worst expansion so far, worse than WOD.
At least wod had changes even if it was for the worst, BFA has none.
No real changes AT ALL except for Allied Races, which are gated meaning I have to grind in the previous expansion 'Legion' to unlock.
When at the time I just wanted to play this apparent new expansion of yours.
Hope everyone enjoys BFA alot more than I did but that really wouldn't be hard.
Might come back around Halloween/Christmas but for now it's hollow, boring, repetitive and uninspiring to play.
Think I preferred sea of thieves to this as I actually had faith in Blizzard, wow but alas. Both got uninstalled after a day and both get 2/10 from me (Purely for graphics)
Completely disappointing and lazy from Blizzard

You forgot a line:
"When I played in Vanilla................."
Wow this really makes me laugh, sorry. You've played 2 hours of an entire expansion with unreleased content and plenty to do in the end game and realize it's boring?
Well sorry to say this so bluntly but then you are the problem and not the game. Find something else that entertains you longer than 2 hours but no need to come here and be all salty how you are unable to be entertained longer than 2 hours in a progressive mmo that requires more than 2 hours to unfold it's full potential.
I wish you luck in the journey of finding said entertainment that does exactly what you want it to do. Perhaps the new Black Ops is more to your liking. Instant action, no progress just pick up and play

Pretty sure the Alliance war effort that wants you dead is a threat enough. And they do want to fight you, no matter what your feelings about it are.
But you made the right decision. Not having fun, uninstall & unsub and leave feedback why. You're disagreeing fundamentally on the direction of the game so if I was you I wouldn't hold my breath it being any better come Christmas.
Also, send me your gold, I've got a dinosaur baby to feed.

... right. After two levels? I'm guessing the game is not the problem.

Alright, I'm not seeing that being a huge problem.

Just the opposite faction... that is quite a foe to battle on many, many fronts. Just because the enemy isn't ONE boss larger than life, doesn't mean our existence is not under threat. I'd say that per faction, we're locked in a battle for survival - but against each other... while the world is dying.

The first 30 minutes? That was the scenario and it was cringeworthy both in story and in actual gameplay - I disregard it as it's just basically a gamey intro, but Blizz could have done better, as we've seen from them in the past.
The rest are just the quests we've always been doing - so what's the problem?

You're disappointed and dealing quite poorly with it. Your judging an entire expansion on 1 day of gameplay? That won't fly.

Please don't come back, it's not magically going to improve or you must wait for Classic, if that is your thing. This kind of negativity is corruptive to the community. So you didn't enjoy it, which is genuinely a sad thing indeed, but why on earth would you make a QQ thread about it? It serves no purpose but for people to send flak at you.

Haha it made me laugh aswell. Reminded me of a dude quitting MoP whilst parachuting down to Pandaria and looking down to this whole new world and thinking: im bored with this.
These people are just tired of MMORPGs.

qq would be good if blizz listened to it but its going downhill ever since.
and it doesnt help how ion admited they went overboard with pruning around 2 years ago and than double down on it.
i feel robet and lied to.

Complaining about mmorpg being mmorpg. Oh, i dont enjoy Fortnite or CSgo, should I make a topic about how bad designers are?
WoW will be always wow, dont expect much changes. New bosses, maybe new class from time to time, small changes in class design but thats just it. Why should they change classes which they shape like since 2004? People choose their mains because of playstyle/lore reasons. Why should they change drastically how a certain class works?
If you dont enjoy the game then dont play it. Just like many other players. I have like 1700 hours in ARK for instance. I dont enjoy it anymore because there is nothing i dont know about game anymore. Does it means the game is bad? Not at all.

Go ask that they remove snipers from CS:GO because it's a boring concept sniping people from afar, I bet you'll be the favorite poster for days.
The stuff you're complaining about is the same stuff you (probably?) enjoyed in other previous expansions.
The problem, as I judge it from your post, is that you are fed up with WoW in general and no longer find enjoyment in it. I respectfully suggest you find something you DO enjoy and play that instead.
I don't mind the stuff you just listed as negative - which alone tells you that opinions differ.

I think the Suramar questline was a good example that even MMOs are capable of delivering engaging and immersive stories.
I have played Guild Wars 2 and that has taught me to appreciate World of Warcraft storytelling. I have become accustomed to it and was appalled to realise how shallow, bland and repetitive Guild Wars 2 is.
Essentially, quests are repetitive by nature. It’s either kill it, talk to it, collect it, go there. The options are limited. What may make it all immersive is the atmosphere and the story.
That is why I am leaving World of Warcraft today (I have a few hours left of my subscription). The story, which relegates me to the part of a villain, an unscrupulous servant of an obnoxious Lich Queen, precludes any chance of immersion on my part.
In Legion getting your artifact (Which you had 3 of for each spec) Was really fun and had stories, each had an ability.
Shadow priests were completely re-vamped (Excuse the pun) Introducing void form, Rogues had combat replaced with Outlaw, Mythic plus introduced, mage tower, traits, artifact power.
Now we wont have set bonuses or anything else that implements a slight change.
There was so much cool stuff and such big changes to keep you playing.
In BFA theres not 1 new talent for me (OOoo Death from above is back if I have warmode on which I cant use in instances)
Yeah, I have played every expansion before and I have never quit so early into one before either.
Thank you, just going to play; Destiny 2, Overwatch and Red Dead when it comes out.
Main and only real positives I see from BFA is 'Oooo the graphics are so nice, look at this tree and the reflections in the water' Which is such a !@#$ feature to point out as although wow graphics are kinda cartoony and cool. You DO NOT play a game, especially wow for its graphics.
Reason for my salt and posting here is I feel I have wasted £40 and I just feel really, really let down and to me it seems Blizzard has just been incredibly lazy and this expansion has been rushed and not thought of at all.

BfA lacks epicness. There are no jaw-dropping, impressive landscapes. No formidable opponent or villain.
After leveling 3 characters to 120 (in the beta) I can say that leveling is bland.
Reaching 120 just unlock 4 new instances and that's it. No new abilities.
110 to 120 is in fact just one level disguised into 9 artificial levels.
There is Legion lvl 110 content and Bfa lvl 120 content. There is no level 112 content nor level 118 content which means you can never try hard stuff or easy stuff.
Everything feels the same and your character feels less and less powerful as you level up because of scaling and gear replacement (unless you used a boost, your Argus gear + legendaries will be OP till level 116).
Warmode is not war because people have it on for the 10% xp bonus and not to actually participate in a war...
Then there is the grind for reps at 120. and the WQs. eeek.

Hello,
I've to say that I'm really enjoying this game right now more than I've done in years.
I've to say that I'm really enjoying this game right now more than I've done in years.
To be fair, I sort of agree with the OP here. I don't feel invested in the story-line, it just doesn't capture me in the same way that other expansions have done.
I'm one of those gamers that play for the story. I take my time to read the text and try to experience the story elements of the expansion. And in BfA .... I just don't feel that the story is drawing me in. It feels weak, sort of.
Normally I would play an expansion for hours on end the first week, having a blast with everything. Now, I'm playing roughly an hour before logging out again. It just doesn't feel engaging or fun, the story. Only flashy, forced sort of.

Speaking of mechanics: there is one thing I have not been able to understand and I have not seen anyone point it out: why do Blizzard claim to be happy to have done away with the old talent system (the one I readily admit to prefer) when in fact they did bring it back in Legion — artifact talents. They lack the synergies and real choices, and — what I dislike the most and what has been one of my main points of critique concerning WoW, that it is far too materialistic and item-orientated — they are tied to a stupid item and not to the character themself, but they clearly follow the exact same pattern as the old talents.
What I should like to see is something like Diablo 2, full of wild synergies. That is what I enjoyed the most. I understand that it makes balancing hard, but they have already separated PvP talents from PvE ones, so it is less of a problem now.
