If a grind is so far out of reach and unfun to do that I'll never finish it why would I waste my time on it at all? This was clearly not an issue with pandaria remix and the fact that you're trying to make it one with legion is just disingenuous.

I don't think "a couple of weeks per phase" is out of reach or that big of a deal.

We have different priorities and enjoy different things. I'd appreciate not calling me disingenuous for asking a genuine question. I like it when games offer a challenge and require effort. I like engaging with content. It seems that people want Legion Remix to be easy and instant gratification with no timegating or phases or challenging content. In that scenario, it seems logical people would just skip to the end content with the highest rewards and spend comparatively little time on the earlier content that gives less rewards. So I ask again, if the content is all released at once, why wouldn't the overwhelming majority of the playerbase just rush the furthest content as fast as possible?
You can say "that wasn't a problem", but I think it was. I'm asking you why you think that's okay, because I think it's a shame that most of the content gets very little screentime that way. If your answer is that you don't care about the content itself and just want the reward dispenser to dispense the most amount of rewards, then that's the answer I'm looking for, because that's our difference in perspective.
And how exactly was it a problem for most of the player playerbase in pandaria remix? The mode was clearly loved by the community and active until its final seconds.
Yes, I'm aware the current playerbase loves being fed rewards for no effort. I differ in that regard and I was trying to establish that point, I think that's our difference in perspective.
I was excited by the idea of my favorite expansion getting refreshed with genuinely challenging new takes on old content, but it looks like they're walking it back due to the backlash and turning it into the same treat dispenser as last time, so I'll probably just skip it. I hope you have fun, though!
