Well, hello and welcome to the starting zone the podcast about World of Warcraft,

and people who play it.

Today is April 29, 2024, and my name is Spencer Downey.

Thank you so much for listening and subscribing to the podcast.

I am joined today, as always, about my co-host Jason Lucas Jason, how are you doing on this fine Monday? Spencer, hello, I'm doing. and we are we are often running in season four

last week there's like a two hour plus episode

this week is gonna be a long up for it's gonna be yeah

I mean we got a lot to get into and because there's like no thererails, there's no training wheels, there's no buddy bumpers on season four, really.

Like we're just off to the races and it feels great. I'm having a great time so far.

I played so much Dragonflight this week.

It was a little absurd, but having a great time. I think, you know, I've heard some

gripes around the conversation

around, wow, that we don't want a season four

or like we want the rate affixes back

like from Fated and Awakens not different enough

or whatever. I think the faded affixes in raid were kind of a mistake until they layered on like four of them and then they just made the fights all about activating the affixes and killing the boss in 90 seconds.

So that really was, I wasn't a huge fan of that.

And I think really what we're talking about

when we're discussing season four versus no season four,

as we've known at these last two expansions, is like doesn't mean that you're going to get another content tier you know it doesn't mean a new raid tier and a new dungeon pool and whatever it means no nothing to do that's new fresh in any way until expansion
