Midnight expansion for new player

How should the game improve for new players in midnight? Realistically.

The game has a steep learning curve. I believe that back when it started a lot of young people in high school and college were playing and there were always plenty of people around you could go to and ask advice. For lots of kids it was a major part of their social group.

Today there are lots of people on their own looking for something to do. And while there is wowhead and plenty of videos talking about the game, they are not easy to find. There is very simple information on how to move, shoot, etc, very advanced info on how to do a specific raid but it is scattered all around.

What the game could add is a set of tutorials that take you through each level showing you how to do things. It should be simple to find. For example, one time I stumbled across a pretty good in game tutorial on healing but it was on the top of a mountain late in the Panda expansion. That type of thing should be easy for a low experience player to find.

Class/talent tree pruning, with the goal to only have a limited amount of debuffs and buffs that the game will track for you. There’s way too many unimportant passives and plates to spin which arent even tracked well with the base UI.

It’s okay, enjoy a potato and forget this whole thread happened, some people beyond even a potato… like OP.

When I am not the one who is complaining I am mainly talking about others who keeps on complaining about how the game is inaccessible for any new players and or returning players. And spreading the same narrative on how the game doesn’t do anything for new players and or returning players and yet they themselves don’t give any thought on how should the game provide for them. But instead all they do is making the same old video on YouTube talking about the same old stuff with no real substance

That is quite a lot of gibberish. There isnt a coherent thought or complete sentence to be found.

who exactly?

I mean I’ve watched a ton of “Brand New WoW Player plays for the first time” Youtube videos the past two years and 70% of the time the person starting the game ends up doing the level 1-10 tutorial and then getting lost with the whole chromie stuff

you know we keep pretending that brand new players are coming to this game and I really don’t think they are lol. Most of them probably don’t want to grind that many levels and if we are getting new players, it’s because people are inviting friends to come try the game, which means the friends can show them around. And as convoluted as this entire storyline is with all of the zones having multiple purposes to some extent, I would imagine they are gonna try it for about three weeks drop it and go back to their Xbox. I would almost bet money on the fact that anyone who is playing this game right now and who will be playing it at midnight are people who have been playing well for at least two expansions if not 12.
