Legion is kinda fun mostly because of the flashy animations and character customization, even though that's lacking too.
But I despise Blizzard for their idiotic lootbox mindset that's pervading all their games like a disease. I know why they do it too but that doesn't make it better. And because WoW is the complete opposite of what Everquest is when it comes to a "living virtual world". WoW is more of a theater where everything feels fake, safe, non-rewarding, easy, illogical, staged, cartoony, etc. But there's no better alternatives, so for now the spell effects are entertaining enough, even though PVE is literally an afk faceroll (actually was afk during the entire "invasion event" intro and still "won". Thanks bliz! Man I hate those stupid forced quests, just let me go fight stuff), and PVP has no skill based rewards either, just loot box farming.

Blizzard killed the MMO genre, turned it into a casual $$$$$ farming game genre. ( welcome to big business)
Games like DAoC/OG EQ were made with passion, and the developers were true RPG nerds. OG DAOC was made with a budget of like 1.2million.
Now MMOS are made with budgets of 100-200-300 million and tank within 6 months because the formula is all wrong.
