With affixes in Mythic+ dungeons, there’s no middle ground. Either they are wholeheartedly hated by the entirety of the World of Warcraft community, or they are the best thing since Wrath of the Lich King. Although players love to complain on Reddit and the official Blizzard forum about the state of the affixes, no one dares to break down what exactly makes them unfun. WoW content creator, streamer, and caster Tristan “Dratnos” Killeen took this task upon himself and outlined what it takes for an affix to be enjoyable.
In an interview with Dot Esports on April 6, Dratnos got into the meat of what would make one Mythic+ affix better than the others. According to him, the main criteria for an affix to be fun and enjoyable is for it not to take over the entire dungeon.
