You can call any part of the game good or bad if you want, nobody will stop you, but don't make up evidence that goes against concrete facts that we actually have. If you love Shadowbringers so much that you'll declare the game is destroyed by not honoring it, then respect that the exact same people who wrote Shadowbringers did it.


EDIT: Also, the reason we're not speculating on anything from Dawntrail is because the next expansion is very blatantly not taking place in Tural or Alexandria so it's just not relevant. We weren't speculating about Ilsabard for Dawntrail either, because we knew we weren't going to Ilsabard. There is plenty of speculation about the parts of Dawntrail that we do know are coming back--Calyx, and the key--because we know they will be relevant.

Broad-based speculation is also not the only form of love we can convey. I love Dawntrail, and I will talk about it in every single other way, but in the immediate wake of a .5 patch and an expansion reveal, the conversation du jour is not previous stories. We're not talking about Heavensward either, but you're not making a point out of that.
