I'm not judging, just curious. Season 3 is just more of the same. If you are not into grinding delves you might as well not subscribe. The story jumped the shark expansions ago, and the writers don't know how to write a likable character even if their life depended on it. The once fabled cinematic team seems to have been gutted as well, especially facial animations. If you want to have a look, wait for Season 4.
This is just my opinion, but WoW is in a steady decline right now. Frankly, Microsoft leadership has no clue what to do with the game, and Blizzard leadership has been lackluster since the original devs left.
The worst part about all this are the broken promises:
"You will see if an item is an upgrade" - Nope, you still have to Sim your character.
"Damage profiles will be less spiky, we'll increase health pools" - Nope, the encounter team decided to ramp up damage as well. Now there are less outright one-shot mechanics, but hard ticking DoTs if you fuck up, so healers will get blamed even more now when they can't outheal the stupid.
One very enlightening video was the discussion Lying Max and Dratnor had with Ion, where Dratnor said shit like "When I decided on a new main, and had to read up all these things about the gearing and optimal rotation", and a few weeks later Blizzard is parading "One Button Rotation" as this big success--because the dps rotations got too complicated.
