Has Season of Discovery Become TOO Boring? | Staysafe Reacts

Sod has to be the laziest "classic plus" they can do

Why do people let Blizzard, get away with so few content? In 1 year they used to make an entire expansion (remember how WOTLK released in 2008, after TBC just came out in 2007?). They are a multi-billion dollar company guys. TurtleWoW has 10x more content and they are 5 unpaid people in a basement. How is it possible, that we still give them excuses?

Phase 1 felt like 2004. Phase 3 feels like 2020.

Still waiting for Scarlet Crusade Raid........

They proved with sod that they are completely clueless...we wont get a proper classic+ from blizz ever.

Phase 7 gonna be like AQ40 is now a 20 man raid, AQ20 is now a 40 man raid. Bug mounts will be ridable anywhere in silithus. Rogues can now use Axes if they do a 40 part chain. AQ40 automatically unlocked (your welcome). Adding purchasable trispec.

People are finally starting to realize what I said the first day SoD was announced: This is NOT classic plus, this is the opposite of classic plus as it rewrites everything we loved about classic. I think the chance to have new content put a pair of rose tinted glasses on ya'll.

they should have released Season of Discovery later when they had content laid out, and would allow for each phase to be around 1 to 1.5 months, so we have something to do quickly and not just wait around . 4 weeks of raiding , is good enough to move on . This experiment was best when we were exploring the world, and when we have to pause after about a week, it's just raid log out to the next one, as not many people wanted to do alts , then it's bad design , because the world is already so old, like how many times can you play the same thing, before you get bored ?

SoD came out in NOVEMBER. The fact that we have only had THREE phases so far is ridiculous. SEVEN months just to start leveling at 50. Blizzard putting the same team on SoD and Cata is disgusting. Whoever the higher up is that thought that was a good idea deserves to be fired.

You can't judge it by looking at the DEAD END of the worst, longest phase of the game. Obviously it's going to have a huge influx come P4 because that's the only phase people really have ever cared about. Tons of people were just waiting for the 60 meta. No one cares about leveling, they're interested in the end game. Grey parsing clowns who care about leveling play on era with the other 20 people who care about it. Another thing is that certain classes have underwent complete transformations from 25 to 60 and a lot of people just preferred to wait for them to iron things out so that they can come into the game at max level when everything is mostly set in stone. Look at paladins for example. Ret paladin has not had a clear vision the entire duration of SoD. It started P1 as a meta TANK using slow big weapons, transitioned to exorcism spam with crowd pummeler in p2, continued using crowd pummeler and a 2.0 speed fast wep in p3, they then tried to insinuate that twisting was going to come back and be meta, it didn't, and now in p4 theyre getting completely reworked again. There's nothing even remotely similar if you compared 25 ret to 60 ret. That being said, there needs to be more than just "here's 20 man versions of the 40 man raids". That's good and all but we need NEW content. Not having a scarlet crusade raid is unacceptable. From all I see, there's only a new instance waiting for us at launch, but no new raids unless you consider instanced world bosses new "Raids". A true classic plus has to have completely new content, but using the systems from classic we all know and love. It cannot just be 90% the same old raids just with added difficulty. Not to mention, what is the end goal here? When we get up to Naxx in SoD, what's next for SoD?

My main problem with SOD is that, it’s the most toxic community in wow by far.

Someone should do a reaction of stay safe doing a reaction of this video. Then another person should do another video adding a new layer of reaction.

The space in between the phases has been too fricken long. Feels like forever for each phase to come out and you're done in two weeks. Also since Phase 1 we haven't discovered shit... taking runes and making them baseline abilities sort of ruins the whole past experience of finding them or collecting them with friends.

As someone who didn't get to play Vanilla content back in the day since I started later, SoD has been fun for me, but I definitely see how recurring WoW players who have played th re-release of Classic back in 2019 would be dissatisfied with this. Phase 3 has been too long no matter how you look at it for anyone, and I wish they had pre-developed content like 6 months ahead of SoD phase 1, so they could introduce things quicker. Overall I am excited for phase 4, but I understand why so many have abandoned ship

Quit shortly after phase 2. Would consider coming back if they had a new server that got rid of the new grinds like the world pvp events, reps, and runes. Just thinking about having to do those grinds to catch up is a huge deterence.

They kept us in Ashenvale too long. I had no interest logging back in after being capped at 25 for so long. I didn't really care for the gated content. The reworked raids were cool, but not worth being stuck at that level cap for weeks on end. I would even prefer a fresh classic exp instead of SoD at this point. I would like to see a real classic + instead with just tweaks to the classes to make them more viable. I think they are on the right track with the runes though.

Couple things. As much as we might not like GDKP. Its really the only thing that keeps good players coming back to raids which gives the opportunity for new players to run them. Phase 1 was the best part of SoD. Coming out with the next phase took to long. The changes for Phase 4 are not hype enough.

It's really disappointing to see no new raids to start phase 4... We had 8 raids in tbc and there's only 7(not including U/LBRS) in classic.. we could add 2 or 3 raids in the endgame and have it still fall in line with normal content releases. Hearthglen or maybe the demon scar should have had a raid added them

There’s no way they actually think making MC 20 man and one extra dungeon is Classic plus lmao

It's not that season of discovery is boring, but rather they don't get their target at all. Since Phase 1 they couldn't decide whether SoD was for casual players or more hardcore players or players with more time to spend on the game, and they leaned on the second one in Phase 2 and on. Fact is, the game as it was and as it is sucks for somebody who wants more content, more balance and more devs engagement. They keep saying "we hear all your feedbacks", but either they're lying or they just don't care. They literally maimed entire specializations. Take the feral and balance druid or the shadow priest for example. They don't know what to do with these classes since they are leaning on a "retail-like" style of playing for them, since they are not targetting casual players with SoD. First and foremost, their player-base is totally wrong and this shows poor planning on their behalf.
