Accessibility should not have to be earned. Steady flying should be automatically available as an alternative

The motion sickness settings (in Accessibility menu) do help, but don’t resolve the motion sickness problems for me. You know what does? Steadyflight.

good thing you only have to use dragon flying for a bit then leveling up.

I’ll pass on Skyriding, it makes me sick to my stomach.

You’re right. There isn’t a single thing about the War Within that requires you to use skyriding or flying.

If you really hate it, you don’t have to use it. This type of post is honestly just forum bait at this point. The requirements are just “Play the game. Go here.”

In Dragonflight and War Within the zones were specifically created with flying in mind from day 1.
That’s why the zones are so much larger and with a lot more verticality than most older expansions, and also why the steady flight speed was increased.

They made these zones to be beautiful from the ground AND air.

I mean… yes? Ion is scummy.

I agree that it should be available. I do suggest though that pathfinder give a mount AND increased flight speed to original flying.

At the end of the day if some folks do better with regular flying vs dragon riding this “war on flying” stuff from the devs is dumb.

I think all flight should be available out the gate, with a speed boost and mount if you complete Pathfinder in it’s current state.

I walked the whole map. Nope, it’s not meant to look good from the ground. Believe me.

Blizzard has gone out of their way to make things accessible for everyone. To say that you don’t have to earn something in the game is just ridiculous. Everything needs to be earned. TWW pathfinder is the easiest ever. The zones were designed for skyriding. Old style flight is the “extra” here. Yea you have to earn it. If you can’t skyride enough to get the easiest PF ever then there’s a million different other things in the game that you can’t do either and WoW isn’t for you.

I say this as someone with severe motion sickness, I can’t play many games like Portal and even being a passenger in someone else’s mount is rough, and skyriding is impossible for me with some things like gathering. It’s too much movement too fast. Skyriding is doable with the accesiblity features and I do use it but it presents some challenges for me. I just learned how to get around them and make it work. Anyone who can play WoW can make skyriding work for long enough to get the new PF ach. IMO it’s really more about “Im bad at skyriding so I’m going to make it an accesibility issue”. JMO.

I like dragon riding, but as someone with Rheumatoid Arthritis, I concur.

Ground mounts are accessible. Oh, and in the dungeon content, passenger mounts can be used. Problem solved.

Imagine raging this much over exploring the new maps in a new expansion.

Caused that is the requirement for Pathfinder. Explore the map. That’s it.

LOL. Brittle spirits in this game, brittle spirits.

Yeah, I think Blizzard is just in the wrong on this one.

Dragonriding has obviously been a success. I personally think it could be improved, and make it instant to switch back and forth between riding “styles”. That, or let us bind them to different hotkeys.

As said, they’re just different. They both have practical uses. I honestly find Dragonriding to be pretty disorienting for short flights (or when you need to be precise), it’s borderline infuriating when you can’t maneuver your mount properly in short distances. We need fewer barriers between the two styles of flight.

You can use your ground mount, the flightpaths, passenger mode, etc.

Steady flying is NOT an accessibility option.

lol If you spent half the energy you spend fighting your own shadow in this thread, actually playing the game, you’d have more fun, have the pathfinder already and be enjoying the expansion.

So I take it, by your aggressive stance, you didn’t play DF AT ALL? You just skipped the whole expansion correct?

Yeah but then he can’t tell everyone that they are on his ignore list.

I imagine him as an angry little man sitting in his chair and his feet don’t even touch the floor, kicking his feet while he’s angrily telling all the “trolls” that they are ignored.

Which is EXACTLY what you do when you’re using skyriding. 100%. Get real.

There is no “compromise” involved. A true compromise is an agreement between two parties taking part in good faith negotiations. This is an ultimatum from Blizzard: “If you aren’t willing to get over that disability you are hiding behind, you will have to take many times as long to level up, because we designed the terrain for players who decided not to be born with disabilities. And to inconvenience players like you.”

Get over yourself.
