Patch 7.3 and the Return to WoW
Added 2017-09-06 21:00:02 +0000 UTCby Dan O'Halloran
I admit I've been on a WoW break this summer. Don't get me wrong, Legion has been one of the strongest expansions of the game in my opinion. Suramar alone was a masterpiece in terms of detail, immersion, and storytelling. But after I settled into the LFR grind and the alt grind and the World Quest grind in late 7.2, my interest, well, ground to a halt. I drifted to Heroes of the Storm, reading more books (seriously, pick up N.K. Jemisin's The Stone Sky,) and obsessing about Game of Thrones conspiracy theories.
I was about to cancel my sub when patch 7.3 landed. I was going to give the new content a pass, but thought I should at least check out the in-game cinematic everyone was talking about (Thanks, Terran Gregory, really). And before I knew it, I was sucked back in. And I know I'm going to be sucked back in at least through BlizzCon, which will get me even more hyped for whatever is next.
Patch 7.3 has brought me back to WoW with its new content to explore, beautiful graphics, and new advancement paths. Has it done to the trick for you? Or are you spending your time with your new buddy the Arch Lich in the Nexus instead?

2017-09-07 18:57:35 +0000 UTCWhoa, I didn't see that The Stone Sky had been released ... I'm enjoying 7.3 on my main, but even with some of the streamlining (third relic slot), I can't make myself do the Tears of Elune quests again on all of my alts. Playing the part of Illidan in BT was funny the first two times but not anymore. Which is a shame because I'd like to see the end of more of the class campaigns.

2017-09-07 00:30:37 +0000 UTCI had to unsub when I got busy last holiday season, and things stayed busy for quite a while. Then I started feeling like it'd be hard to catch back up, which made me avoid it longer, which just made me feel more behind... Knowing 7.3 was coming, I finally went for it. I just got my first class mount last night (beast mastery hunter!), and I'm thrilled at the new casting animations and effects for my shadow priest and arcane mage.
