15 renown for flying is ridiculous

No different for old players. Blizzard have become experts in ensuring a continuing dwindling player-base.

If the sub count gets low enough, Blizzard can move the HQ to Florida.

It’s crazy anything is gated behind the most boring system in history. Renoun.

Not sure what you mean by that. Was there something preventing an HQ move before?

[Hordehunter-mankrik]

back in my day sonny, there was no flying

This is the plot of a lot of sports comedys. The team then goes on to win the whole thing.

For new players this is crazy.

new players can use dragonriding.

Was that Major League? Dont remember if it was Florida or not but I get you now.

[Thundahstahm-stormrage]

Major League is the best one. Im pretty sure it was Miami, but its hard to know since everything is better than Ohio.

[Dragonfraud-onyxia]

New players are not 80s years old to but get the hang of dragon riding.

[Onorlus-arthas (Onorlus)]

@Sendryn-sentinels

Pretty much. The only ones this affects are those with disorders or disabilities that make dragonriding unusable.

What is the name of that disability? (The one that prevents a person from pressing the space bar and one or two keys on the keyboard) I keep reading about it being the main complaint about dragonriding, but I can’t find the actual name of it.

From what I’ve seen the biggest thing people want slow flying for is that they want to see the mounts that they like flying, but new players don’t have any cool mounts so it doesn’t really matter if they get slow flying

You hopefully realize that ‘new players’ doesn’t just mean new to the game. What about people that stepped away at some point and recently re-subbed? Those people DO have lots of cool mounts that they aren’t able to use until they jump through a bunch artificial and arbitrary hoops. It’s ridiculous.

[Arrinity-area-52]

If you can’t hit 1 button a couple times to dragonride I doubt you actually the play the game.

Why would you need regular flight if you are so crippled you can’t do anything other than afk in town?

[Sendryn-sentinels]

@Mumo-area-52

By that logic they wouldn’t be able to play the game

Wrong.

@Onorlus-arthas

Please keep showing your disrespectful ignorance towards people with brain issues or vision issues who cannot handle the speeds nor maintain the functionality with the buttons.

As someone who has long covid and has a difficult time with things that aren’t second nature for me, it took me all of beta and part of live to be able to use dragonriding. And I’m a mild case of disorders.

I’m very tired of people showing such ignorance towards how the brain works or sometimes doesn’t work— and it’s all on different levels and different things.

[Onorlus-arthas (Onorlus)]

@Sendryn-sentinels

And I’m a mild case of disorders.

But what is the NAME of it?

[Sendryn-sentinels]

Did you even read? Do you not comprehend that there are many issues and disorders that can cause issues with dragonriding? Or are you just acting obtuse to troll?

[Mafic-emerald-dream (Mafic)]

True but at least this keeps these threads active. It is a fine line but keeping the threads active so the feedback reaches loud and clear is our best bet IMO.

[Gedpriest-queldorei]

@Warzug-mankrik

@Greenguy-zangarmarsh

put in a few weeks of effort for the ability to fly

Come on man, it’s more like months for a truly new/returning player (0 current reps/0 renowns), let’s not kid ourselves

It’s a LOT of boring busywork content to grind thru, and the sick joke is that none of it is fun either lol

100% exactly this

The bliz grind designers are just atrociously bad at their jobs, unable to distinguish between fun and burnout

@Sendryn-sentinels

Did you even read? Do you not comprehend that there are many issues and disorders that can cause issues with dragonriding? Or are you just acting obtuse to troll?

You can lash out, but you can’t name the disability? You say there are many. Can you name the one YOU have?

Is there a CHANCE that you’re mixing up the words “disability” and “inability”? For example, try as I might, I just can’t get the hang of ice skating. But it doesn’t mean I have a disability involving ice skates. Maybe you just can’t get the hang of dragon riding. It took me a while, too.

HEY! Maybe we BOTH have a Dragon Riding disability!

[Slotmachine-sargeras]

They can always use dragon riding how is it ridiculous lol

[Elliorra-proudmoore (Elliorra)]

My issue is motion sickness. I physically can’t handle the speed so I get nauseous anytime the dragon speeds up. I can handle normal flying speed but not dragonriding at high speeds (and I’ve tried to go slower but I can’t maintain it in the air that way). It’s the only thing in the game that makes me sick. I have motion sickness with certain things IRL as well.
