    Blizzard learned from past mistakes. Legion has a plethora of content and stronger story elements on offer, but would benefit from more depth within the classes.

    Legion absolutely feels like an expansion that will improve on everything good Blizzard can deliver, and will hopefully shape into an absolute monster of an expansion.

    One of the best WoW expansions in terms of available content once you reach the level cap. Artifacts, order halls, world quests and professions' improvements make you go search for your new recipes and upgrades.

    World of Warcraft: Legion adds ten levels, a new zone, and a new hero class to the twelve year old MMO and manages to deliver some of the best content that the game has ever offered.

    An exhilarating return to Azeroth. World of Warcraft is as polished as ever and the newest expansion adds a few neat tweaks to the familiar formula. [Oct 2016]

    I am thoroughly enjoying this new expansion for World of Warcraft. From the new additions to the enemy tagging system, to the way the new zones dynamically adapt to the player's level, and the way that the dungeon instancing system can now select players anywhere from Level 98 to 110 to fill a group, makes this new expansion one of the most player friendly experiences in WoW yet.

    For the first time in years, it's easy to meet up with other players, drawn together by enticing new stories. [December 2016, p.120]

    So far, I have played over 14 hours and this expansion has been really really amazing. Good questing that isn't boring, the zones are breathtakingly beautiful, the dungeons are really beautiful too and are very well done and they are entertaining, blizzard really overdone themselves with the cinematics, they are AMAZING! Voice acting is on point as well. The new class changes are good as well. The new PvP system is pretty good too.

    I have only played over 14 hours and this expansion pack is already better than WoD put together, I just hope blizzard keep the content coming and it won't turn out like another warlords of draenor (i am 99.99% sure it won't though).

    If you have the money, it is defo worth it so far!    … Expand

I don't get how people like this game. The raids and gameplay are so dull. The graphics look like its still from 1999-2001ish. It should've gotten at least a small upgrade by now.
    I've tried it probably 4 times for a month on and off since 2018. Final Fantasy XIV is superior in everyday.. And unlike blizzard. Square enix isn't known to s3xually harassing their employees.
    Did you know that the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV has a free trial, and includes the entirety of A Realm Reborn AND the award-winning Heavensward expansion up to level 60 with no restrictions on playtime?    … Expand
