As much as BFA was awful, the HoA was not a bad system when they fixed it up and they could have easily done more with this moving into WOW TBC Gold Shadowlands. Hippity hoppity the HoA currently absorbs anima congratz problem solved we don't need to scrap it for something else again.

Why have we gone through 4 iterations of garrisons now? Why don't you just base it SW/ORG and expand upon it with every new xpac instead of going from Garrisons into Order Halls to that fucking boat to Covenants. Take a garrison type case in SW/ORG. Plan around it being used longer duration, new growth released and you're able to construct the expansion specific building that will progress the narrative. Or the NPCs just show up to progress the story. Having it as instance from the big cities will solve the"everyone is in their garrison" problem.

It's silly that so much development time has spent on growth specific substance. Island expeditions. Warfronts. Just like at what point in development did they opt to give up on warfronts? Or when did they figure out that warfronts were not going to work as intended. It turned out to be a major characteristic of buy WOW Classic TBC Gold the bfa growth and imo was mostly a dud of a feature. It is a massive waste of money to look for a system that only continues an expansion.
