Can we please stop with the .7 patches. It takes away from the quality if you drop buggy nonsense every 2 months.

Comment by Karon1

A new raid in a .5 patch is interesting. But my guess is that the tuning will be all over the place of its added mid season.

Comment by cokeboyswag

Nothing for MoP (or 2019 classic) past Blizzcon safe to assume whatever they've decided on isn't gonna be well-received by the playerbase.

Comment by Brimz

I wanted raids during seasons so it keeps me playing instead unsubbing after 2 months because the season is running out of content (no, .5 and .7 are not patches) and I thought something like Nighthold with proper boss count.

Now instead of 8-10 boss raid at .5 patch, we getting 1! boss raids? just wow...

At least they're not permanently crying and itching about every little thing blizz does.

The right people won this time.

Hmm. They mentioned a Housing Roadmap as well in the interview where they revealed Guild Halls.

I figured it might have been a missphrasing, as they could just tack it on to the main roadmap. But this main roadmap just has "Housing updates" one time, and no details about communal structures such as Guild Halls. I wonder if they are still going to get into that before the expansion is out, like the interview promised.

I do like these roadmaps and presentations though. Feels a lot better to know what's in the works, than it just being an unknown what's being worked on. More connection.

Are you being sarcastic, because it sounds dope.

A large format delve that you can explore and leave and come back to as you please. I'm excited for it.

I'm also excited to see they didn't cancel the haunted themed game mode! I'm hoping for something like a social deduction game mode or way different than that, a vampire survivors like.

All the Classic Streamers malding was a experience.

People really thought they would really annouce all the in6teresting things before Blizzcon.

Also WOTLK will come together with The Last Titan Annoucement on Blizzcon
