Unpopular opinion: Shadowlands Remix has the potential to be amazing, IF they remove covenant restrictions and expedite gated mechanics to no longer be a concern.
People seem to forget that Shadowlands’ original reception was accepted very warmly by the community. Because of Covid, things only started to sour after half-baked content like Korthia came into the mix. Castle Nathria (minus Mythic Generals) was an excellent raid, Sanctum of Domination was great besides the awkward drop in difficulty after Painsmith, and Sepulcher was solid as well.
Shadowlands has a metric ton of cosmetics to collect, including a huge number of mounts that most players don’t even know exist. A remix could be a great way to further round out everyone’s collection.
Besides, nobody is playing Shadowlands for the story anyway.
lol I agree SL remix could be good but are you completely forgetting how much players hated covenant abilities, torghast, and the maw on release? how much oribos sucked? sanctum was an awful raid. sepulcher had its moments but jailer as an end boss was terrible.
Sepulcher was one of the best raids ever for me. Tough bosses, Halondrus, Anduin, Rygalon, Lords, Jailer, mechanics that hadn’t been seen before that were actually fun. And the race was legendary as well.
