‘I anticipated much more’: WoW gamers left upset with up to date occasions

World of Warcraft Dragonflight Patch 10.1.7 introduced the long-awaited vacation refresh, giving a brand new coat of paint to Pirate’s Day, Brewfest, and Hallow’s Finish. However followers aren’t actually completely satisfied concerning the adjustments Blizzard made.

When going by the detailed record of adjustments made with Patch 10.1.7’s vacation refresh, gamers realized it could take much more effort and invested dev time to win over their hearts. In a nutshell, these occasions merely added a few extremely uncommon Dragonriding drake customizations, beauty appearances, and a few quests.

Most followers agree Blizzard did a good job with this yr’s Hallow’s End, giving much-deserved like to the Headless Horseman encounter. However the different occasions merely fall in need of the expectations gamers had.

 “I anticipated much more out of a refresh,” Reddit consumer idejtauren stated, and different followers agreed: “Yeah it’s much less of a refresh and extra including Dragonriding particular low drop likelihood objects and some cosmetics. I hoped for… A literal revamp? Not simply added objects?”

After I first noticed Blizzard doing a vacation replace, I anticipated to see a ton of latest content material, not simply a few uncommon Dragonriding customizations tossed within the loot desk. I anticipated to see up to date property, new quests, encounters, achievements, rewards, and possibly even a dungeon or two that may give extra depth to those occasions. However these occasions are nonetheless farm fests for uncommon mounts, just like the Headless Horseman mount, and achievements that aren’t obtainable by the remainder of the yr. 

Sadly, this implies Blizzard has ticked the vacation updates field, they usually most definitely received’t get any additional consideration for no less than a few years.
