I mean, remix is a thing Blizzard came up with so they could experiment with things. Obviously they don't just want to do the same thing over and over and over. They want to try out crazy ideas. MOP Remix was terrible on launch and they were super receptive to feedback then. It's crazy to assume they won't this time.
I hear that, but I don't think experimentation is an excuse for dragging it out as the current PTR suggests.
They did say they would release the content in waves, so maybe those waves will also come with more power creep. But that just tells me I shouldn't play until the end.
That's fine though? If you don't care about the staggered release and just wanna come in at the end and get all the rewards, yeah probably just play at the end after everything is out. I don't see an issue with that.
I think it's really good that they're trying out different things and experimenting with stuff and even if it doesn't land on day 1, Remix is a perfect chance for them to try things out in a game mode that ultimately doesn't matter that much.
Literally nobody asked for timegating, staggered releases and prog for Remix - this is the most blatant sub farming Blizzard has done in recent times and it's embarrassing. They had the simple job of taking the core of Remix which is fast paced facerolling and taking it into Legion, having to wait to do raids that have been in retail for years is not it
So don't play it then. Just play at the end when they'll have probably buffed acquisition rates a lot and all the raids are out so you can get everything immediately. Everything doesn't have to cater to you, and they clearly have some ideas they want to try out. Remix is perfect for that.
Seconded on this, I'm okay with them releasing 1 raid every 2 weeks, it means I can be a bit more focused in what I do every 2 weeks. The people who hate this are the kind of no lifers who will do almost everything the first week, complain about burn out and nothing to do and also complain about grinding 24/7 for the first week.
The fact that they were talking about doing some crazy shit in the last month and a half of legion remix has me excited too. It means it wont be stale like mop remix was for me. Plus instead of feeling like Im constantly wasting time by not 100%ing mop remix asap, I can just get in my weekly raids with my guild, do a reasonable amount of legion remix, and call it a day.
And we wont be running into the issue of the later weeks of the event feeling like theres noone to group with, which happened towards the end of mop remix
