No, in fact we just discovered the secret enemy behind it all was a completely unheard of, mind shattering revelation, couldn't have possibly seen it coming:
Ascian
7.3 just released, so no.
I really hope so!
If they largely re-design classes to feel distinct and unique again while keeping the same level of boss quality, I think it'll be a huge turn-a-bout.
If they keep going with this trajectory with a lack of care for writing, well... Idk, maybe their next MMO project is on the horizon.
7.3 was very satisfying for me, personally. Wuk Lamat and Sphene still got their "big damn moment" (which is fair to do for the plot built up and they do have genuine fans) but there were so many signs of attention and care put into this patch.
We weren't stuck experiencing everything through Wuk, they only put 20 seconds of Smile into a cutscene for one moment, they had puzzles, it was a lot of story, cutscenes were chock full of specially tailored animations.
Wuk Lamat and Sphene are now sitting on their thrones with satisfying conclusions and we're left to move on to the next big thing.
The Winterers do intrigue me. Why was Calyx supported by an Ascian when his plan didn't line up with the Convocation? Why are they trying to achieve immortality by any means necessary?
I'm already theorizing maybe they're trying to beat the inevitable heat-death. That was really the only one we couldn't help with toughing it out and finding meaning. A team of villains trying make a way for people to endure beyond the eternal winter.
I really enjoyed the story at first with the investigation and the special instance with the mini puzzles. The vibe was here, the mood was good.
After that though, we were back to shounen writing and cringy lines. And an epilogue that seemed to never end zzZzzz
wait another year and half
Dawntrail had some hiccups (especially during early 7.0) storywise, but the later MSQ, and the post patch MSQ has been as good, if not better, than what we had in other expansions.
7.3 was stellar, the
puzzle section
was amazing, for instance, and very innovative.
