Hope so. Was great seeing the zones the event weeklies were in so lively. What games like wow are supposed to be. People out in the world doing stuff, not just hanging out in cities hovering around on flying mounts constantly waiting on queue alarms to go off, or spamming chat lfg. They managed to make the world relevant for more than just leveling a few times over the last 8 years, and it was nice
Considering TWW adds the first concept of a “Follower Raid” with Story Mode, I suspect that we will see more content of this nature in the future. Especially if that leads to happier customers willing to spend more money on extras.
This entire game is “a complete novelty”. Nothing matters other than ‘what do people find fun’ and if ‘alt follower dungeons’ are found to be fun for a lot of people that’s just as legitimate as mythic content.
I did that one and another one in City of Threads. I got a bunch of gold and a low-ilvl piece of gear from the last boss. Saw the whole place though and completed the quest. That feels perfect for me.
The idea of “Oh you do a bunch of follower dungeons to gear up and tackle Mythic follower dungeons!” seems to fly in the face of what these dungeons were meant to be.
I would just like to see everything from Classic to TWW have these. I don’t care if heroics and mythics are included. Just a great way to level alts without drama.
I love the follower dungeons and the new solo journey story mode. I don’t mind most dungeons with real people, but the LFR is too much for me. I like talking to people, but with my current playstyle and intermittent time off a guild and groups tend to be less appealing. I end up going back to raids in previous content because I’ve missed it, so it makes old stuff new and fun when I want a change from new.
I don’t see them taking them into mythic territory. No real need to as others before me have mentioned.
I think it may have been Bellular (forgive me mentioning a streamer, oh GD mates) who suggested this sort of thing in order to provide a more interesting way for new players to experience the earlier history of the game while levelling. Such as a compact main questline for each expansion, and the final raid of each expac with an AI group - and it was long before the first mention of Followr dungeons.
I always thought that was a decent idea and it would be a great way for new players to experience those story-dynamic raids as well as for others just to pop in and do them for fun if they don’t want to do them solo. Especially if they gave some sort of relevantly useful items.
I think they will. It’s a no brainer to add all the dungeons, including old expansions to having followers. They copied this idea from FFXIV anyway which has them on all dungeons and I have to imagine they will do that too. It just make take time for them to get around to it. I’m all for it 100%.
I could see them doing follower dungeons or older content but I doubt they will expand the system to other difficulty modes beyond normal. Even more so for non-random queued content like mythic 0 dungeons.
I don’t disagree especially since I’m kind of aging out of instanced content myself. I really only enjoy arena and an occasional BG at this point. I did some dungeons but I find I prefer the follower dungeons as I can enjoy the lore and atmosphere of the dungeon without being forced to run a normal dungeon like a +10 key.
