Donut county tells a cute and funny story. The puzzles are not hard and it took me about two hours to beat it. I don't think that's wrong. It's like going to a cinema, you pay for the single experience. There is a cut scene after every level which allows characters to be more fleshed out and I warmed up to them. Even tough it's a short story, I really felt something after these two hours. The music and the artstyle really add to the whole experience.

tldr: If you have friends to play with, it's the same old WoW that you know. You're going to have a good time. I just expected something more. This is coming for a WoW veteran. Perhaps i'm just done with the game altogether but lack of originality is really something that comes to my mind in every area when it comes to BFA. I find BFA lacking in content. Compared to legion, the story is very weak and hardy even believable (I know it's a fantasy world but still). Blizzard over-promises and delivers very little content. At the moment, there is not much to do and features like island expeditions which were heavily advertise, disappoint. One can do dungeons but the time-gating on blizzard's side is really visible here. Warfronts, raids and mythic+ dungeons are coming, allied races as well. It is clear for me that this expansion focused on player retention and moneymaking mechanics rather than something original. Something created not out of heart but in a corporate conference room. I really have problems with game mechanics at 120. Players can do world quests or farm azerite power. Thing I've done in excess during the last expansion. They are straight up revolting for me and are nothing more than time-wasters put in place just to engage players in meaningless activities. I feel restricted like I'm getting some fun, just to stay and play but not enough to be really satisfied. Writing in WoW has never been great but I feel like it is stagnating. C'mon blizzard, your players age. The game is almost 15 years old but the story is written for teenagers and very young at best. Characters are one-dimensional and their actions illogical. Maybe I'm just looking for a more mature story after we've all seen fantasy world created in eg. GoT. The good thing are the visuals. It's astounding what can be done with such an old engine. I've only done the horde part but voldun is one of the best looking zones in the game, especially at the night. This is probably what designers envisioned for Tanaris or Uldum. It's really hard for me to say 'don't buy it'. I personally feel like bfa does not changes enough. Yet, it is still good ol' WoW. Dungeons are fine, the raids will probably be as well. Classes play mostly like they have in Legion. I expected a different direction.
