    The game is good, they have added plenty to enjoy, and the prospect that Blizzard has learned what the player base wants is surely something to hope for. Initial impression is a 9 of 10, just based upon the foundation. It's getting a 10 to offset some of these fake low ratings.    … Expand

    E' una delle espansioni piu' belle di WoW, il nuovo sistema di volo (che personalmente vorrei sostituisse il vecchio), la nuova razza (un bel drago umanoide) e la nuova classe (meccaniche del tutto nuove e interessanti).
    Poi ci sono le zone che creano splendidi momenti di rapimento e stupore.

    Great expansion overall, the best since Legion. The new dragonriding mechanic is too much fun, along with the dragon races. And we finally have solo rated arena! Solo shuffle is a great system, but could use a fix to the leaver issue which will hopefully come soon. All in all I haven't been this happy with WoW in a really long time.

    There is so many new stuff mounts, pets, transmog to collect so I'm not sure if I even will get all of this. That dragonflying is amazing idea and I love flying on my drake.
    Graphic got a lot of updates, for over 18 years old game it looks better than some new mmorpg games. Playing WoW is like watching funny comedic cartoon. People who talk about old graphic have no idea how bad looks games from 2004 that have realistic graphic like that in New World for example.
    In every new expansion wow updates engine and I can see that, game developers can even upgrade it more but, most of players don't have RTX 3080 to play it.
    And for last one this game have something that every one will love.

    Primeiro queria dizer que quem está criticando o jogo por ter personagens LGBT+ com certeza já não joga há algum tempo pois isso não é uma novidade e quem joga sabe, a diferença é que dessa vez algumas pessoas aprenderam a ler as quests e agora estão revoltadas dando nota 0 por isso.
    Com isso esclarecido, posso começar a review.
    1 - Leveling: não é mais linear como era em shadowlands e    Primeiro queria dizer que quem está criticando o jogo por ter personagens LGBT+ com certeza já não joga há algum tempo pois isso não é uma novidade e quem joga sabe, a diferença é que dessa vez algumas pessoas aprenderam a ler as quests e agora estão revoltadas dando nota 0 por isso.
    Com isso esclarecido, posso começar a review.

    1 - Leveling: não é mais linear como era em shadowlands e isso é ótimo, você pode escolher como e onde quer upar, diferente de shadowlands que te obrigava a upar seguindo a história, aqui você pode escolher se quer upar fazendo PVP, masmorra, profissão, quest da campanha ou quests secundárias.

    2 - PVP: Diferente do que aconteceu nas ultimas 3 expansões, dessa vez podemos chegar no end game e ir direto pra BG, em poucas horas vamos ter set completo pra ir pro PVP ranqueado.

    Dentro do PVP ranqueado, tem um novo modo de jogo que é o solo mix, além de ser muito divertido é excelente pra jogadores casuais, funciona como um solo queue, são 6 rodadas e os times mudam, isso facilita o balanceamento.

    Agora a gear de honra (set básico de pvp) já começa no ilvl 411 quando você está dentro de um campo de batalha, você pode fazer upgrade nela porém esse upgrade só vai ser válido no PVE, a gear de dominação foi liberada ontem, no primeiro dia da season 1, atualmente temos um limite de dominação semanal que podemos obter, esse limite é 1350 pontos, da pra conseguir tranquilamente esses pontos em um único dia, isso facilita pra quem quer ter vários alts no ilvl máximo, por ser um cap baixo vai ser difícil de alguém ficar pra trás.

    3 - Agora sobre o PVE: começando pelas masmorras, temos 8 masmorras novas no jogo, 1 delas envolve dragonaria e infelizmente essa é a mais chatinha até então, pois é a mais longa e está presente no leveling, as 4 masmorras mais rápidas são as que libera quando chega no end game, particularmente acho que deveria ser ao contrário, pois durante o leveling é quando queremos terminar a masmorra o mais rápido possível.

    Raid, masmorra mitica e baú semanal: Esses são os pilares do PVE "hardcore" e se mantém da mesma forma que era em shadowlands, os sistemas são os mesmos, mas está mais rápido de chegar nesses conteúdos por não existir um novo sistema obrigatório que obrigue o jogador a grindar.

    4 - Nova classe e raça: não gostei da aparência mas está divertido e isso é o que importa quando estamos jogando, realmente a raça parece mais uma lagartixa do que um dragão, mas pelo menos temos a forma de elfo pra quando enjoarmos da forma de dragão.
    Essa nova raça trás uma nova mecânica na gameplay dela, é importante citar que a ultima classe que teve uma nova mecânica foi o demon hunter, que foi lançada em 2016 juntamente da expansão legion.

    5 - Sem conteúdo (grind) obrigatório, essa de longe foi a melhor novidade da expansão em comparação com as ultimas 3 expansões passadas, agora você entra no jogo e faz o conteúdo que te interessa, não existe mais aquilo de "faça conteúdo X, depois conteúdo Y, ai sim você vai liberar o conteúdo Z, que é o único conteúdo que tu realmente quer jogar"

    6 - Conteúdo casual: nos pactos de shadowlands já existiam os famosos conteúdos casuais, mas eles estavam inclusos nos conteúdos obrigatórios, hoje não funciona mais assim, então só vai atrás disso quem realmente quer, dragonflight está lotado desses conteúdos e eles dão equipamentos relativamente bons.

    7 - Dragonaria: o novo modo de voar no seu dragão é a maior novidade da expansão, é uma maneira mais imersiva de voar, embora eu ainda prefira a forma antiga, é excelente finalmente começar uma expansão já voando, vale a pena lembrar que isso NUNCA aconteceu na história do jogo, antigamente a forma de voar era comprando licença quando chegava perto do end game, depois a licença começou a ser liberada no nível máximo e a partir do warlords of draenor (2014) teve o pior sistema de todos até então, pra começar a voar era obrigado a fazer uma série de conquistas longas e chatas, felizmente em dragonflight já podemos iniciar a expansão voando no primeiro nível, nos primeiros minutos fazendo quest já vamos liberar nosso primeiro dragão, são 4 no total e tem como personalizar totalmente cada um deles.
    Esse sistema é vinculado a conta, então facilita a vida de quem tem personagens alternativos.

    8 - Profissões: agora as profissões são relevantes e fazem gear com o mesmo ilvl de raid mitica, não sei se isso é algo bom ou ruim, só o tempo dirá, espero que não torne o jogo pay to win.

    9 - Considerações finais: o primeiro mês de dragonflight já é melhor que os últimos 7 anos do jogo, tem potencial pra ser a melhor expansão já feita, infelizmente ainda existe mensalidade e está cara no Brasil, mas estou me divertindo muito e recomendo a todos.    … Expand

    Dragonflight, this years most anticipated release for me.

    How does it stack up? It's the most fun I've had playing WoW since Cata and pandaland. Speaking of mists, Dragonflight has some serious mists vibe, along with some vanilla. Rather than dealling with big cosmic threats of the past few expansions, Dragonflight deals with exploration of a new land and the legacy of the Dragonflights.

Rather than dealling with big cosmic threats of the past few expansions, Dragonflight deals with exploration of a new land and the legacy of the Dragonflights.

    The new zones are all beautiful. The waking shore, home of the Black and Red Dragonflights, possesses contrastic landscapes characteristic of the two flights, the desolate volcanic and lush forests respectively.

    The plains, home of the Green Dragonflight and the Maruuk centaur tribes, the only friendly centaur faction currently in game. The plains really make one thing, "This is what Desolace must have looked like before Theradras ruined it"

    The Azur span, home of the Blue Dragonflight and a new tribe of Tuskarr. Reminiscent several Northrend zones, mainly the Grizzly hills and Borean Tundra's Nexus sublocation.

    Tge final questing zone of Thaldraszus serves at the home of the Bronze Dragonflight and home of the main player hub of the expansion. Thaldraszus has perphaps the least visually pleasing landscape of the expansion, but, still visually pleasing nonetheless. A mountainous region,that possess prestine architecture of both dragonkind and titan origin, where the architecture of other regions of the same origins were ruins.

    The new race/combo of Dracthyr arefun to play, and have a good deal of customization in both their dragon and humanoid forms.

    Dragon riding is also a blast, a new activity of dragon racing also offers a great competitive side activity to do.

    There are other aspects of the expansion, like profession overhauls and representation that I don't pay attention to, so i'll let others factor thise into their reviews.

    From here on out is largely spoiler territory.

    The levwling story, centers around restoring the Oathstones of each Dragonflight, which Alexstrasza believes will restore the Aspects powers, and combating the Primalists, a faction akin to the Twilight Hammer that enslave elementals. Lead by the incarnates, ancient protodrakes who resent titan influence over the world. Lead by Raszageth, the only incarnate who has been freed from her prison, they serve as the current primary antagonists of the story. The first raid tier Vault of the Incarnates will center around this conflict. The interactions between Wrathion and Sabellian has brother energy that I just love, with similar motives but different tactics for what they do.    … Expand

If you missed a day there, let alone a whole week, you could aswell quit the game because you fell behind in the endless power grind. (At least thats how it felt)

    Dragonflight now is the exact opposite. You can log in 30 minutes or an hour a day to just do what you want. There is no endless rush to meet expectations. Everything can be done at your own pace. For the aging and returning playerbase this is the most welcome change the game could have done. The returning skill trees, dragonriding, the new continent, artwork, etc. are the cherry on top that makes this expansion (so far) extremely enjoyable and worth every penny.

The bad reviews are nothing to do with the game or gameplay and is just homophobic basement dwellers losing their minds about something very normal.

    The new zones are incredibly beautiful and vast, with an amazing soundtrack. Both of these are reminiscent of WotLK which is very nostalgic. You can fly immediately at the start of the expansion, and once you finish the campaign once you never have to do it again on your alts and can get straight to doing what you want.

    The narrative is so superior to anything else I've experienced in WoW, they really stepped it up this expansion to make you care about the characters and their situations more, which feels great.

    Dragonriding is enjoyable and the races are genuinely fun when I didn't expect them to be at all.

    Dragonflight definitely does not deserve the bombardment of low reviews that it's getting and it's a real shame that there are so many close-minded people out there who aren't gonna give this incredible expansion a chance because it has SOME gay MINOR NPCs.    … Expand

    Please ignore the review bombers its pretty clear its a few individuals with an agenda and a major chip on their shoulder. The expansion is beautiful, with plenty to do and at your own pace, relaxing gorgeous music, fun dungeons, and straightforward. Its a very refreshing change World of Warcraft has needed.

The flight mechanics are smooth and intuitive, and the sensation of gliding through the clouds and feeling the wind beneath your wings is simply magical. The quests in World of Warcraft Dragonflight are exciting and diverse. They tell an engaging story that delves deep into the fascinating lore of World of Warcraft. Another plus point is the regular provision of updates and expansions for World of Warcraft Dragonflight. The developers take community feedback seriously and continuously work to improve the game and enrich it with new content. This ensures that players always have fresh content available and that the fun of the game is preserved. Personally, I am thrilled by World of Warcraft Dragonflight and would recommend it to anyone who wants to explore a unique fantasy world and experience the feeling of flying on the back of a mighty dragon.

The new flight system is wonderful, also with a talent branch for improving the dragon, they came up with a cool idea. There is a lot of content, there is something to do, the system of professions has been updated, which is ideal for me. I haven't tried the new class yet, I've seen how others play, there is interest. Do not listen to the whiners who bury wow and say that Dragonflight is another failure, this is a great addition! I get the feeling that Metacritic has bought reviews because I read bad reviews about this add-on and a lot of the same type of reviews accuse Blizzard of racism, which is nonsense, WoW Dragonflight is a great add-on!

    Now the bad things. Evoker and Dracthyr are pointless. All Dracthyr are evokers, they can't be any other classes. I don't care what "lore" justification is used, it's only because they didn't want to spend time with other classes and animations. Transmog is also terrible on Dracthyr, again because of lack of time or laziness. Also the performance has been utterly awful in this expansion so far. Constant disconnects when landing a dragon, servers down, stuttering and lagging on Blizzard's end and not from the user's end. Performance still needs serious tweaking. The reputation grinding is pretty bad this expansion too, there's a lot of it. Also group loot is utterly terrible, no idea why they brought it back.

    Dungeons and raids are pretty "meh", same old thing nothing really improved or worth, so a neutral score there. Story also gets a "meh", I gave up caring about WoW's story after Legion. Also if the LGBTQ pandering that Blizzard is doing offends you, then you're just an easily triggered snowflake. It doesn't affect how good or bad the game is.    … Expand

I’m as cynical as they come about the hyper capitalist state of modern gaming, but it really does look like Blizzard has made a philosophical change on their WoW team, even if my cynicism still wonders if this is all from desperation. Either way the result is a game where you fight the enemies, and it never feels like the game is fighting you. It’s such a whiplash from the experience of the last 3 expansions, it’s hard to explain just how different it is, or decide where to start that explanation. The most obvious point is the end of the borrowed power era of WoW, so I’ll take that first. Gone are the days of nuggets of player power locked behind artificial time delays and content droughts, and instead what we get is a giant 15-way intersection that does more than ever to represent the vast and varied types of players that still play.

    When I returned to Azeroth after a year plus break in 8.2.5 Rise of Azshara, I met someone who informed me of my task list I needed to complete just to have a “raid-ready” character, and boy it was a doozy. A steady diet of weekly mythic dungeons could get you Azerite armor, but unless it was the specific ones you needed you’d be weaker. The best essences required daily quest grinds, leveling up a follower in Nazjatar, and a number of reputation grinds. Then there was the Benthic gear, which gave you raid specific bonuses, and that’s all before you needed the azerite power to level up your heart of Azeroth enough to use all this. This was the norm for active players, but for me it was a completely reasonable thought for a returning player to think “this is more like Call of Duty than WoW”.

    So many games today require you to do a myriad of tasks that engage you with game system5 It’s as though this new “optional” state of content has allowed the WoW team to make it much more varied and interesting. The professions feel like an entire occupation within the game, which has maybe never been the case in WoW compared to other MMOs. The dragonriding system helps you get to all of it with a brisk wind in your hair and a feeling of adventure, rather than the dread in your gut that flying from point to point is just a slowdown on your way to your next nugget of artifact power. The treasures and secrets are there to be appreciated, not just to give you more of a resource. I find myself once again falling in love with the World of Warcraft memories of my youth, but this time it actually feels touched with a modern polish that’s been badly missing, and a new story that has me salivating for the next events.

    I’m not sure the other players of the last few years will find it satisfying. It could be that many of them don’t like World of Warcraft, and instead they like the competitive edge of the game and none of the “world”. Big damage numbers and looking cool while putting them up is a big motivation for me, but for some it’s the entire game. Those players may find themselves struggling to fill their newfound “free time”. There’s not much to do in terms of getting your character stronger, so unless that type of player decides to play more than one character now, they may just log off after they have had their fill of dungeons and raids, because they don’t enjoy the rest of the game. Is that bad? Is it still worth 15 bucks a month? I can’t decide that for them. If that kind of player asks me “so what do we do now”, I will simply have to give them the classic Eric Cartman line “what do you mean, now we finally get to play the game”.    … Expand

Was fun, but easy, fast and modernized. Been playing since 04 and it's really nice to see alot of these changes to modernize the game.

    Launch was not particularly smooth but there is a lot going on in Dragonflight and it’s fun. I have never before found myself just doing things in the open world that weren’t tied to player power and I’m just enjoying everything. Dragon riding is a blast, the new talent trees provide a lot of options and are a nice blend between the pre-mop talents, artifact weapon traits, and post-mopLaunch was not particularly smooth but there is a lot going on in Dragonflight and it’s fun.

Professions can provide very powerful gear. Deducting one point because some of the dungeons need some love. But I am loving this expansion week one and it seems significantly more promising than Shadowlands, BFA, and even Legion.… Expand

    As an experienced 15+ years wow player, I’m fairly impressed. Listening to non toxic part of game community paid off and for now we have a very promising start of the expansion. Pros:
    - Dragon riding is actually fun and flying is unlocked from the start;
    - No grind systems built in such as legendaries, conduits, torghast, etc.; - Story and side quests are finally interesting to follow    As an experienced 15+ years wow player, I’m fairly impressed.

    - Dragon riding is actually fun and flying is unlocked from the start;
    - No grind systems built in such as legendaries, conduits, torghast, etc.;
    - Story and side quests are finally interesting to follow again because they are focused around our old acquaintances;
    - Gearing system for pvp finally doesn’t include any pve related activity and provides even ground for participants - only skill matters;
    - Revamped professions system is deep and keeps you interested, especially because crafted gear is a viable option for gearing in pve and pvp content. - Design of locations is as good as always, but being back to Azeroth after SL feels cozy.
    - Auction house in the main city on Dragon islands - what a time to be alive.

    Cons:
    - Modern day agenda is something this game could do fine without, though it’s not to intrusive beside that body type 1 and body type 2.
    - Small technical problems related to expansion launch, but it’s totally solvable.

    I saw a review bombing happening to this product and had to register to write my first review because I just think it’s quite unfair to review bomb this game. Unlike Shadowlands Blizzard actually listened to community feedback and seemingly made a great expansion. Let’s see how they will develop it. For now it’s very promising.    … Expand

    The fractions are different, their quests are different.
    Dragonriding makes travelling from point A to point B more fun and engaging.
    Now every new feature has it's proper timing, a player is not overwhelmed with everything from the beginning.

    Of course, it would be wrong not to mention the problems still unsolved.
    The balance that doesn't exist.
    Still no new battlegrounds.
    It's pretty difficult for people without guild membership to reach optimal item level. BG chests don't provide you with equipment, world quests do, but you won't be a match for a player who already could try the new raid, and LFR is one week late :')
    And LFR is a problem, too. Why the ilvl is so low? I think it would be nice if LFR was available for different difficulty as well.

    All in all, it's an expansion to have fun. I do not consider it as a cybersport discipline or something like this, but for an average casual player it has a lot to offer.    … Expand

    Dragonflight really picked up the ball after a series of terrible expansions, it feels closer to Wrath of the Lich King (My favorite expansion) than any other since.

    Short and simple: I haven't felt like there are things I could just go and do in WoW since Mists. It's always felt like there was a very specific set of things I had to do, not could do. So here I am happily gearing an alt at level cap using things I obtained on my main.

    Just what on earth is going on in the review section? You all keep using that word "racism" and I feel like either A) Nobody knows what that word means anymore -or- B) There's some coordinated effort to review-bomb this game. I gave it an 8 because I haven't played it.

    I made this review to tell you kids to please shut up. And get off my lawn.

    Positives:

    - The forced cringe conflict between the Horde versus Alliance has finally ended - A lot of dialogue is voiced now to bring charm and personality to the various characters - The dragon isles are absolutely filled with cool, cute and neat little side quests and stories - Alt friendly (so far) - Dragon riding is incredible convinient - Lots of cosmetics - Not    Positives:

    - The forced cringe conflict between the Horde versus Alliance has finally ended

    - A lot of dialogue is voiced now to bring charm and personality to the various characters

    - Alt friendly (so far)

    - Dragon riding is incredible convinient

    - Lots of cosmetics

    - Not a billion currencies

    - Brought the fun back into WoW (so far)

    - It's actually Warcraft and not whatever fanfiction was Shadowlands

    - The talent trees are amazing for most classes

    - The Dragon Isles feel and look great

    - Professions were updated, with cute showable gear

    - The lore is pretty decent too despite a few hiccups (so far)

    - Causes boomers to seethe when they see 1 gay couple (pretending anyone reads questtexts)

    - Not made by Jeff Hamilton who left Blizzard and suddenly it's 100% more fun

    - The dragon isles are a really charming and fun place to be in

    - The expansion seems to be focused on fun, not on "wasting as much time as possible"

    Negatives:

    - Dragon riding is an annoying motion sickness enducing minigame

    - The new race is locked into 1 class despite the community asking for less restrictions and Blizzard even gave in by making rogue, priest and mages available for all races

    - The new race is also in both forms incredibly ugly and in the dragon form you can't transmog armor

    - Night elf shamans among the primalists.... What? We can't even play those and night elves are not known to be very shamanistic so I am very confused. I could let vulpera being among them slide, but night elves? Why?

    - The game is still suffering from restrictions over all. All across the dragon isles you will meet NPCs that can mix their armor types or do stuff that we players can't. Dracthyr NPCs being able to wear a hat? Check. Vulpera mage apprentices being able to wear the witch hat from a seasonal event that we players can only wear then? Check. A blood elf with a two hander sword wearing a mix of class specific PvP hunter and paladin sets that is a mage? Check. NPcs can be classes that we players can't be? Check. We can't we mixmatch sets? Is this game made for the NPCs and we players are just a sideshow or what?

    - Steve Danuser is still in charge for the lore

    - Most of the sets are the most ugliest sets I have ever seen - If you're not on the Dragon Isles the game shows how outdated it has become, the old world still has textures from 2006 - Customisations are laughable and not evenly distributed across the races - The dragon isles are neat, but over all the game has still outdated zones everywhere outside of that and it's also suffering from the "no fun allowed" approach - Very expensive With everything being said... I would give it a solid 8 out of 10 so far. If you ignore that the game is outside of the dragon isles a huge ugly patch rug, then you can absolutely enjoy DF. If you plan to play any content outside of DF then you will notice the flaws incredibly quickly. I recommend playing it. Didn't had this much fun in this game since Legion.    … Expand

    Dragonflight is still de facto at the beginning of its life cycle. Still, one can't help feeling that we desperately needed an adventure like this. With all its pros and cons. [Issue#325]

    World of Warcraft: Dragonflight is somehow a breath of fresh air and a celebration of classic design principles in equal measure. The return to more dynamic, old-school talent trees enhances the class fantasy with a seasoning of new abilities across the board. At the same time, the retreat of pressuring, artificial power-gating systems promotes a more healthy gameplay loop. The game is also gorgeous, with a more promising storyline, elevated cinematic delivery mechanics, and deeper core systems which make for one of WoW's best expansions in years.

    I appreciate the new interface (it needs getting used to though) and talent system (those dilemmas!), as well as changes to crafting that raise its importance. I enjoyed dragonriding a lot and found quests to be engaging, but was disappointed by dull dungeons and repetitive endgame content. World of Warcraft: Dragonflight is a pretty safe expansion and I expected a bit more from it, but I do feel it has a huge potential that could be fulfilled in the near future.
