Yeah, pretty much. Ever since Wrath they've been trying to do one expansion a year; except they've failed every time and so that's why every expansion past BC has had a year+ stretch of no new content. Wrath had that little one boss "hold over" raid but that was dumb, which IIRC even Blizzard agreed with and said they should have just kept working on the expansion instead.

Hell, with WoD, they claimed they "doubled" the size of the WoW development team. We see how well that worked out. WoD is pretty much universally considered to be the worst expansion, and on paper has by far the least amount of content.

With Legion they have finally thrown in the towel and admitted they will never be able to do one expansion a year, and are sticking to one every two years, and have sworn we won't run into 12 months of nothing again.

But who knows. Maybe I'm cynical but I'm waiting until we're a year into the expansion with actual content on the horizon before I get my hopes up. :v:
