World Of Warcraft: Forever Had A Shockingly Smooth Launch

Whenever there’s a new World of Warcraft expansion launch, I usually advise all my overeager friends and guildmates not to take launch day off work to play. Like look, I’ve done it before. Multiple times. And it ended poorly every time, because the servers were so freakin’ overloaded that I was barely able to play. I’d sit in a queue for over an hour, only to finally get in, play for five minutes, and then get disconnected. It’s a miserable experience, and inevitably most people who have taken the first launch day off in the past regret it.
