A new Quel’thelas and the zones being developed for Midnight and if they’re adding any new races. Ideally a cinematic of Quel’thelas and player housing. Story development and who the final boss of TWW. I think Midnight launching story should have a very long cinematic like in BFA several telling the story of Midnight, but more so just 2 minute one of Midnight showing Xal at the Sunwell. That would be great!
Silvermoon shouldn’t become neutral. They never turned race capitals. Just use Quel’danas again this way the blood elves aren’t losing their only hub and forced to share with the people who activley tried to kill them in the past.
I have no problem with Silvermoon functioning the same way the new Nelf capital works. Horde players can enter it, sure, but it’s clearly a Night Elf city for Night Elves. The fact that the guards don’t automatically try to kill the opposing faction doesn’t make it a “Neutral City.”
I’ll be in a considerable state of shock if Quel’Thalas isn’t completely revamped- remaking it to a size and scale where skyriding around it takes time. And also if Silvermoon City isn’t the neutral hub area.
The BC starting zone is probably getting erased. Starting zones are obsolete with Exile’s Reach being a thing and if anything actively cause confusion with new and even returning players. I was certainly baffled in Death Knell starting out again back in Legion wondering why my class trainer wouldn’t offer me any new abilities. And with them being preserved in amber with Classic servers there’s no argument to keep them around for posterity’s sake.
I do think a lot of charm will be lost with them but let’s be real the game isn’t about leveling anymore. It’s entirely shifted to the end game experience. Getting a max level character isn’t an achievement it’s basically where the game starts in earnest.
So reworking the capitol zones into more modern WoW areas that could offer evergreen content with only mild updates sounds good to me.
No. Starter zones shouldn’t be touched especially if high elf fanatics take it as reason to believe the Blizzard cares more about them then the playable elves.
Honestly I just think you should be able to start at level 10 with the Exile’s Reach gear in your capitol if you’ve beat it once already.
Presuming a starter zone isn’t completely empty who you do see there is going to be zooming around in the side car of a motorcycle. The pacing and themeing are already lost.
