How to populate the empty cities

I think a simple way to alleviate this issue is to have portals to the other main cities.

you must be new here… once upon a time there was portals to virtually every main city and area of importance… but Blizzard removed them back in 8.1.5…

this was blizzard’s dumb reasoning:

I understand that changes can throw people off a bit at first, but I also think they help keep the world of Azeroth feeling alive. When there are fewer portals, does the world feel a bit bigger to you? Do you like that? How difficult is it to get to the locations you mentioned without a direct portal (talking to everybody who isn’t a mage here ) ?

These are the portals that have been removed from various locations:

Dalaran (Legion)

• Ironforge/Thunder Bluff
• Darnassus/Undercity
• Caverns of Time
• Dalaran Crater
• Karazhan
• The Exodar/Silvermoon City
• Shattrath
• Wyrmrest Temple
• Vale of the Eternal Blossoms

Shrine of the Seven Stars/Two Moons

• Shattrath
• Dalaran (Northrend)

Dalaran (Northrend)

• Caverns of Time

Stormwind/Orgimmar

• Hellfire Peninsula

Oribos

• And if Blizzard’s stance of portals didn’t change, i’m sure Oribos would have had a full fledged portal room as well like virtually every expansion prior, rather than an additional completely useless area within it.

Rather than making the world feel more alive… imo, it made the world dead, because before personally I would often travel to locations such as Dalaran, Shrine of Seven Stars, even the Exodar because there was a convenient portal that made traveling to these various locations quick and easy, for when I needed to do stuff, such as use a bank, auction house, or whatever… but since the portals are gone, I just stay put in one area (just the current expansion main city) as it’s way too inconvenient and time consuming to travel to another city these days.
