Is the new World of Warcraft expansion any good? (sh.itjust.works)

Was wondering if anyone had played it, and if it's actually any good and not just recycled content with reskinned monsters and more grinding?

Is it any different from previous expansions? Is endgame nothing but grinding again?

What's the deal?

TL;DR - I'd say it's definitely decent (much better than Shadowlands) but the grind is always going to be there in WoW, I recommend skipping it and playing many other games instead.

I've played WoW on and off since beta and played the first season of Dragonflight. Flying was awesome, grinding is still a thing and like @rhokwar@[email protected] said if you want to do anything over normal raiding expect to be doing lots of M+. I don't like the timed aspect of M+, everyone is rushing and as a parent sometimes I have to stop the game and go take care of something, thus wasting 4 other people's time. I stopped playing WoW and have honestly really enjoyed just playing other games, when I was playing WoW that was all I had time for (grind grind grind) but now I've played and re-played games that I wouldn't have had time for. I started playing Diablo 4 and it definitely has grind going on but it's much easier to put down after playing for a little bit and the content is amazing. I played the new Starship Troopers FPS and while it's early release it was good fun and I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with that. I also got a Steam Deck and have had fun replaying South Park the stick of truth on the couch while hanging with the family.
