In recent years, we have seen more and more neglect of new zones becoming almost entirely abandoned and unused after their initial release patch. Need I remind that one of the most beloved zones, Suramar, remained relevant on release as a max level zone, and was also the main zone for 7.1 as it received new content and a campaign without the need for an entirely new zone.
If we want zones to feel alive and meaningful again, we can’t throw them onto the floor moments after picking them up. We need relevant zones for longer periods or at least updates to expansion zones to maintain their story progression.
