Nice to see Blizzard keeping the hype alive with back-to-back seasons, though I hope Dungeon Escalation brings more than just a fresh coat of paint to the grind. The Campfire Chat timing is perfect—just late enough to grab snacks but early enough to avoid turning into a sleep-deprived demon slayer.

Excited to see how Dungeon Escalation shakes up the seasonal grind—hopefully it brings some fresh chaos to the endgame loop. Also, props to Blizzard for keeping the content train rolling, even if the shorter seasons are catching folks off guard.
