With The War Within just around the corner, WoW players are eager to see if the new expansion lives up to their expectations. The War Within adds the usual amount of world and PvE content, alongside Delves: short mini-dungeons that promise lucrative end-game rewards.

In an August 7 Reddit thread, a Redditor asked the War Within community, “People who tested the beta: are delves any good?” It’s a great question. The user said they’ve seen a lot of pro players play Delves, but they want to know if average WoW players like you and me “like” them, regardless of their rewards.
The top comment explained that Delves are essentially solo mini-dungeons, but they "don't think that gives [Delves] the right impression." The commenter continued, "[Delves] may or may not be your thing. I think they've made more interesting solo content in the past; they just tied a bigger scaling and reward system to this one."
Blizzard has added similar, more focused instanced content to its expansions before, like Battle for Azeroth's Island Expeditions and Shadowlands' Torghast, but neither have been well-received by the player base. It's understandable if you're skeptical of Delves.
