I’d really like to see Azeroth updated, and leveling in general alongside it.
At this point we have had Cataclysm zones longer than we had Vanilla wow zones.

I’d like more of the older zones to be pertinent again, but Cata’s “biting off more than we can chew” mindset with reworking literally everything from the ground up cost us a lot (a raid tier, a rewritten story, and others), plus all the older content that was removed.
There’s so much in the game now, after seven expansions, that just to rework all that had come before would literally be an expansion in itself with no endgame, just the reworking of leveling content.
And I love leveling content. Probably my favorite content other than five-man dungeons. But trying to change what I go through questing between levels 25 and 45, say, is not worth dedicating dev time to instead of more dungeons or new quests at max level.
I think the 7.3.5 rework is as much of an overhaul to leveling as we’re likely to see for a while; I wish I could scale down to run older stuff together with friends who are leveling, or just level up entirely in old world zones instead of having to go to any expansion zones, but that’ll be a while coming, if at all.
Updating some zones/phases like Arathi, Darkshore and Tirisfal is at least a good start, though. High-res Azeroth would be awesome! But I don’t want it to take away from something else in the future
I am pretty down for another Cataclysm
With the more advanced phasing tech we’ve seen in AB, Darkshore, and Silithus, a new “cataclysm” like Xpac could avoid some of the foibles that Cata had.
You wouldn’t need to nuke all the old content, just phase it for max levels. Maybe we could have void controlled zones next x-pac?
Wasn’t cataclysm not just the name of the expansion?
Why another one?
If they do in fact revamp azeroth, I would love it if they phased the places that change and give us back the old dungeons. Or at the very least give us options. I miss the old VC, SFK, SM and all the rest of the classic dungeons that were altered over the years.
Deathwing did nothing wrong.
What if it were the opposite? what if all the world-healing we do for Azeroth with the azerite and such for BfA cause a massive restoration and explosion of life that altered the land? Could be cool if it also caused some of the original land mass that was lost to the sundering to resurface and such
Adding world quests to all the zones would be easy. It would be nice to have another leveling path especially for characters with leveling gear and elixers.
Perhaps if they were unlocked by achievement so as to preserve the initial experience.
It’s time for the un-sundering. All the continents should start rushing towards the maelstrom where they will collide violently, wiping out innumerable lives as the lands converge once again. The minions of the old gods will take advantage of this chaos to do… stuff!!!
yeah, sure. azeroth isn’t saved, becomes corrupt, no one’s strong enough to destroy her and we are thrusted into an alternate azeroth which never got passed the age of the black empire.
then alternate azeroth helps us defeat main azeroth in a final battle with anime music and explosions in a swirl of final boss background energy. then the game shuts down.
So long as they don’t remove any of the existing content in the game to do it. The Cata rework of everything sucks for newer collectors because of all the recipes/mogs etc. needlessly removed from the game that we can’t get anywhere (unless it’s hopefully added back in).
I can only pray that a cataclsym would destroy BFA
