Once a great show, it has since lost its way. I don’t blame Jodie at all—she’s a fantastic actress and does a bang-up job in the role—but the writers have given her nothing but awful poli-pop tripe to spew. I hate it for her because she has to deliver those awful lines. Everyone knows the show is going down hill.

This is an amazing game. Yes, there are some paywalls, but the game itself is breathtaking. I started playing Rift as an alternative to WoW when Catalysm ruined the talent system of the latter game. Theory-crafters will love RIFT and find a lot of enjoyment mastering the learning curve for each set of talent trees. I just Gamigo doesn't screw this game further. They've already done their utmost to wreck it, but it's still amazing.

This was the end of the golden age of WoW. This expansion got more things right than wrong and was the last truly great expansion pack for the game. After this, the World of Warcraft just stopped being so much fun. This was the last Xpac to feature WoW's old-school talent trees. These trees allowed players to engage in theorycrafting--manipulating stats to match individual play-style--and that was enough to keep me around from start to finish. The music was wonderful, the story was coherent, the art was fantastic--I really loved this expansion. I hate what the game devolved into afterward. The only expansion that felt "right" post-WotLK was Legion.

It’s clear the writers don’t understand the characters they’re writing for. In season 1, JLP is portrayed as some kind of trickster. In season 2, Raffi is an insubordinate, loud, opinionated crewmate who is not Starfleet officer material at all. This series is painful if you enjoyed ST:TNG.

I played since vanilla and quit mid-way through Cataclysm. I skipped MoP for the most part and began playing again in WoD just a couple of months before Legion. I found my decision to skip MoP and WoD justified, and fell in love again with Legion which felt like the perfect end to the series; once you defeat Sargeras, that should pretty much be it for the story. But no, they'd promised a fourth war so they--failed to deliver. Battle for Azeroth, the highly anticipated Fourth War--the singular event that would define the entire series--flopped. It fizzled. It just kinda sucked. As opposed to fighting a fourth war, we end up dealing with Jaina's drama, Baine's drama, Sylvanas' drama, Anduin's drama, and everyone's drama. The zone assaults and war fronts felt forced and like merest training for something better to come that never materialized. Moreover, the lore retcons and rescripts are stupid. I kept my account active for several months, mainly because my WoW account was also tied to my WoW-Classic account. I played until the madness/corruption gear appeared and then I decided I'd had enough and cancelled my account. I gave up on WoW just before Shadowlands and have no desire to return. This was the deal breaker.
