Sorry to break it to you but leveling is part of the game and a lot of people actually enjoy it. But at that point when your done leveling, why not just ask for BiS gear and call it a day instead of wasting time running the same content over and over because that is a waste of time.
Now having both would be ok, and since I got pathfinder, I find myself loading up my old-world mounts and flying around Dragon Flight zones. Is it slower yes, will I maybe miss out on stuff, maybe but I can always swap mounts super-fast if an event pops up and I need to move ASAP.
As far as game play goes, I think the newer generation of gamer has a short attention span, so they are trying to streamline game play for that generation. Hence a lot of mobile games being made or features in games that speed up slower process like leveling and traveling to name a few.
Actually because all i do is pvp in this game, they should give out the best gear quickly so everyone is on an even footing as fast as possible. no more matches where half of your team in a bg is in questing blues and i am sitting in full conquest trying to carry them. I donât care about grinding the gear.
that it is a factually incorrect statement to say you cannot get regular flying day 1.
And more importantly, that the time it will take you to learn regular flying is negligable especially compared to how it was DF, SL and BFA. At worse you will learn it in about a week if you are a slow leveler.
a mode of TRAVEL is HARDLY comparable to end game Mythic raiding gear, lol.
Its a mode of TRAVELâŚnothing more. Nothing less.
Im pushing 60. lol.
I prefer having flight day one.
I have about 100 alts in this game currently.
there goes that âageâ and âpatienceâ thing both right out the window lol
Obviously a case of Waldeinsamkeit regret. You have been âpac manâdâ by eating up the path of pellets ahead of you, you have neglected to notice the ghosts and maze layout. waa waa womp beyooieyooie.
Thatâs fair but for me personally I just canât recapture the feeling I had back in 2007-2010. Plus the end game is just full of GDKP runs. Iâm good with leaving my good memories in the past.
I was specifically commenting on the persons dislike of leveling and how the game doesnât start until max level. In a reply from that person, they comment that they like to do PvP activityâs the most and actually would prefer people have gear handed to them, to put everyone on the same playing field. Not sure what game I played but they use to do that by giving people a basic PvP set.
I also personally donât care if people want one or the other methods to fly as I use both and find myself using both depending on what I am doing atm. Personally I like the slower mounts which ironically you can harvest while mounted as well which is a Dragon Flight feature added when you spec the right way when gathering.
Note I said the newer generation. I understand by not including older gamers I would take some flak for what I typed. As an older gamer myself there are times, I donât mind going faster but in general I take my time.
Only reason I have so many alternate characters myself is out of boredom when I hit max level and also because I canât be everything on one character like some games. For me itâs mostly I want all my crafting and gathering on one character.
Actually, I would want to say Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdom are perfectly made for Dragon Riding. Iâve flown both as part of Flight Master and on my slow mount and itâs an AFK go do something else while itâs happening. In the islands, if youâre traveling long distance, itâs like fly up as high as you can and just point your mount slightly down and coast until youâre in general area.
Most games today seem to make smaller maps / zones. So, flying in them is kind of pointless other than having flight points that move your character around. No more are the days of running across East and West Common lands into Kitichor Forest to get to the Karanaâs.
Which has caused nothing but problems and issues. Ion even got booed at Blizzcon one year for announcing âpathfinder will be returningâ. Itâs a vastly unpopular decision to gate flying.
I do think it wouldâve made more sense in the Emerald Dream if they made people travel on foot, at least at first. The zone is supposedly under attack.
I recall doing the Shaâtari Skyguard quests in Skettis back in TBC, and flying was actually challenging there, because it was slow and there were tons of aerial NPCs, giant owls and whatnot, that would dismount, daze, and/or kill you pretty quickly.
âSkettis, home of the most annoying birds in Outland.â
It really felt dangerous, especially flying (because flying was much slower back then and the flying mobs would keep up quite easily if aggroâd), and Emerald Dream has no such danger. They also had fel cannons shooting at you in the Bladeâs Edge locations.
They shouldâve made you travel on foot, and Fyrakk blasts you out of the sky if you try flying or something like that, at least until a certain point when itâs âsafeâ to fly again. Maybe when he finally dies in the raid or something, and the last LFR tier comes out.
It canât be done now obviously, but I think it wouldâve made the zone feel bigger.
its truly awful, the pay is great but its not really worth missing out on seeing my family and my physical and mental health are no longer priority at this point lol. But this is the times we live in thanks to the economy.
