First impressions thread!

So, I have been playing for a couple of days now and I like it. Not saying it’s perfect, but I like it a lot. As has been said, it’s cozy. There is familiarity. I don’t have that war-weariness that I’ve had in the past several expansions. I get to be an explorer, not the “world champion”, it’s nice.

It’s an adjustment coming back after 2 years. I’m trying to figure some stuff out and get used to the new UI. Dragon flying isn’t my cup of tea, I lack the hand eye co-ordination (dyslexic). But that’s just me. Overall I am pleasantly surprised.

Glad they are continuing Heritage Armor. I’ve almost collected all of them at this point.

Also, the Orc heritage armor should just be one giant spike.

Doing small patches focused on cosmetics/stuff other than a raid tier is so good. These .5 and .7 patches look like they’ll address a lot of my concerns with the base Dragonflight experience of not having much to do as a non-raidin non-mythic+ doing casual–if I can collect new heritage armors and trading post stuff I’ll be pretty happy!

THAT SAID smelly human and orc pssh where’s my ridiculous purple an pink crystal-festooned Draenei Heritage armor

I did actually level a human for the first time recently so I can get that one, though I’m curious what human and orc sets they’ll come up with that won’t feel like a retread of the Arathi warfront sets (or maghar sets). Maybe something Lordaeron-themed for humans in silver and blue rather than the stormwind gold motif? Does WoW yet have the technology for an asymmetric L tabard??

As for Orcs idk, Mag’har armor is pretty much perfect for orcs already, maybe some blademaster-style back banners as cape mogs?

When Blizz announces Draenei heritage armour, at the end of the quest instead of Draenei armour we unlock high elf heritage set for void elves instead lmao

For those who are interested, Tyrael’s Charger is available for purchase:

NOTE - Blizz has announced it will be going away after Jan 2nd.

mini-horse legs spaghetti wings is back?! how could they take my prestige away from me!

No Night Elf Warthongs, no peace.

So, uh, I notice a lot of this expansion takes place around finding a guy named Tyr.

Maybe we’ll be giving him a hand with something.

I would consider it if it wasn’t $25.

When I see the sale price for the other mounts next to it, I’m liek pfft no thanks.

i can’t wait until we find Tyr and he says the iconic line:

“What are we? Some kind of God of War: Ragnarok?”

my post praising the new cash shop outfit got deleted. probably not at all because i talked about a specific type of underwear but probably because i also called out all those shirtless male worgens sending creepy whispers and of course who else would report me but shirtless male creep whispers HHHMMMMM I’m onto you!!

anyway you get four pants, three shirts for one outfit and they work on all body types and juspion is thighs out baby!!!

on the topic of plump draenic man thighs I do appreciate having a “sexy” version and a “sensible” version as options for men and women. For a while there has been just less sexy armor altogether, hence the unfortunately enduring popularity of low-rez 2004 thong armor, but we don’t want a ban on butts we just don’t want pants that transform based on gender.

this is how orc men want to dress blizz, just let them

And add more skimpy leather pants if I have to see one more DH in that stanky fur diaper that represents the only skimpy leather I am going to cry

The fact that I know exactly which pants you’re taking about from your vague description speaks volumes on how we need better skimpy transmogs. Skimp mogs for all!

Hey, I’ll have you know I make that dubious grey fur onesie look good.

Check out the mog on Gurda.

I’m honestly stupidly thrilled with the open skirt, too. Give me a few more of those.
