These are the kinds of changes that will not only make DF better, but they'll make every expansion after DF better too.

@@imaran1303 Agree with you on Shadowlands; it's the first expansion where I quit pretty much as soon as I hit max level. The only thing I was sorry to miss was the Legion timewalking, for the mage tower. I don't think removing tier sets was necessarily a bad move; taking them away also took away the requirement of using a strictly worse piece of equipment because a set bonus was too central to your spec to let go of. And an AoE cap is simply a balance change. Removing talent trees, however, was the worst change they've ever made to WoW, and has consistently been my biggest complaint ever since they did it. Which, again, is a point in Dragonflight's favour: Talent trees are back! It sucks that I can no longer make the types of hybrid spec I used to love, but at least I have SOME level of customization again.

It is what I liked when they FINALLY implemented tier sets again in the Zeref Mortis patch, even if the tier sets looked like absolute garbage, also the fact that the 8 enemy hard cap was universally hated which is why they made a 8 enemy soft cap, where you hit 8 enemies at max damage and all beyond that at reduced damage. The typical bs of fixing shit at the END of a expansion, but yeah, good that we finally have some form of customization, professions actually look fun now (looks heavily inspired by FF14, which is fine, that was Wow's charm, steal from competitors and implement it), Dragon Riding looks dope and me being able to play as a Evoker and just fly myself is even better, the story so far doesn't look like a convoluted mess, though neither did BfA, as it was sold as a 'back to roots, Alliance vs Horde Expansion but ended up NOT being that, so I shall remain skeptical on the lore even though so far it looks to be pretty decent, the UI custimzation is also pretty dope (another thing they took from FF14 apparently), though the new UI does take some time getting used to.

And I wish I could change the orientation of my action bars (if I have one bar set to two rows, I want button number one to be top left, not bottom left!), as well as have different settings for 10-, 25-, and 40-man raid frames. Those are the only quirks of the UI I've found that I don't like, however - and they should all be easy enough to fix with addons, if Blizzard don't fix them, themselves. It's funny you should say that the Horde was screwed over by Blizzard, though. From my point of view, Horde got... pretty much all the cool stuff. You got freaking dinosaur druid forms (!!!!), and you got an allied race that was both a unique race (rather than a sub-species) and *highly* requested in the community (Vulpera). You got generally better-looking and cooler both races and allied races. You got FAR easier unlock requirements for literally every allied race. Horde got their allied races generally from start-of-expansion factions while Alliance got them from end-of-expansion ones, that both took more effort to unlock, and that we hadn't had as much time to grind out (this was back when allied races were first released, obviously). Horde got a bunch of cool cosmetics and mounts, while Alliance got mostly recoloured horses and gryphons - and when Alliance finally got a single cool thing, the bee mount, Horde players threw a fit online. Horde stuff in general has clearly gotten a lot more effort and attention when it comes to design, and the last several expansions before Shadowlands have featured heavily Horde-focused storylines. Horde has been Blizzard's clear favourite for a long, long time.
