‘Fun was nerfed successfully’: WoW players really hate War Within’s leveling changes

In the living environment of an MMO, especially one as large as World of Warcraft, maintaining balance without spoiling the fun is key. However, a recent change to how leveling works in the new The War Within expansion has rubbed players the wrong way and is disrupting that delicate balance.

WoW‘s recent The War Within expansion has mostly been received well by the community, but apparently that wasn’t enough to save it from further tweaking. As is the way things go with MMOs, many players are entering The War Within expansion with endgame gear from the previous expansion Dragonflight. Naturally, this tended to make The War Within quite easy; that is, until a post-launch hotfix increased the difficulty across the board, making the expansion far more of a slog.
