Reverse WoW exodus

[Wildheaven182]

Not sure why anyone thinks the world revolves around which MMORPG they play. I'm a wow player! Now I hate wow with a passion and love ff14! FF14 did me wrong, now I love wow again! Play what you want, play them all, play nothing. Who cares, really?

Yeah, ive never been big on mmos. Im just not going to pay multiple subs at a time. ill go from one to the other just to save money.

I dont know why everything is assumed to be the most extreme. Like i dont hate ffxiv, i love ffxiv, but i dont like dawntrail enough to play it and i wanted a game to play with my bf.

I hate blizzard immensely for many reasons that everyone else does.

I dislike square enix for their lack of originality, creativity and risk taking, which is ironic for the game's roots in the 1.0 calamity.

I will probably have to maintain that I hate wow on principle but boy is it a lot more fun and interesting. FFxiv has always... had this feeling that it's just designed specifically to waste your time. Dragonflight gives me a game to play in my time.

I don't know about Dragonflight, but WoW was a huge time sink before.

Anyone remember hanging around WoW's General Discussion forums in early MoP when everyone was talking about how the dumb pandas were for babies and MoP was going to kill WoW? And how it's now one of the most beloved expansions and no one seems to recall how absolutely reviled it was at the time?

New expac bad, old expac good has been the meme for a while. Expect to see Shadowlands in a similar light (people already tried to do it in Dragonflight).

Except MoP was always bad. Dawntrail is only bad because SBI took over production.

Hot takes from someone who's afraid of the word "woke" and a company.

The discourse was legitimately so bad during MoP that if I dug up old Metacritic reviews circa 2012 for it and told you they were for Dawntrail, you would believe me without a second thought.

MoP was the worst expansion (at the time) with my favorite class designs. I loved taking every single one of them into the Brawler's Guild. As for the rest of the expansion? Pass.
